And so we come to the video for American Idol winner Jordin Sparks' "Tattoo," which is unfortunately not set at a seedy ink parlor in Greenwich Village because she's still "only 17," as Randy Jackson never failed to remind the viewers week-in and week-out, and therefore too young to even set foot in there without her football-player dad right by her side. So what's the next-best thing to a tattoo parlor? A beach! In the winter! With some pals, and a mysterious dude, and an abandoned carousel, which I'm guessing was the director's way of reminding the public that she is ... oh, you know. That said, the messy "Umbrella" synths on this song are starting to grow on me, although Sparks' vocals are a bit too musical-theatery for them to actually work in the context of the song.

I'm guessint that it was a desire to keep everyone comfortable that resulted in her romantic pairing being another racially ambiguous individual. This must be so hard for the marketing department!
Although--maybe Nicole Sherzinger's team could take some notes. Beginning with: Sherzinger is not a sexy name. Nicole Sherzi would have been a step in the right direction.

I guess Justin Guarini was too busy.
