Cobra Starship Make The “Guilty Pleasure” Headlines Flow Like Water


So, let’s take some inventory for Cobra Starship’s latest video for “Guilty Pleasure,” which replaces the very cute “home movie” one they made as they continue their quest to crack MTV’s 3 a.m. rotation.

Patrick Stump as a perhaps overly cost-conscious manager? Che-eeck! Even if I didn’t like the song as much as I do, this video is like Idolator catnip, people. [YouTube]

    Oh man. There’s a reason why they’re one of my favorite bands! Catnip, indeed.

    It seems like such a cliche sort of video and yet- hatless Stump!

    @scarletvirtue (ΣΣΣ): Well, he’s got his hair long in the front which means THE BALD is probably pretty prominent from the back. I feel so sorry for the poor guy- fronting an internationally successful band (I guess) and yet going bald at 22.
