Chelsea Jade has returned with a brand new single + video, “Superfan“.
Chelsea says about the new single: “I’m thinking about my best friends a lot. Their distance gives them a kind of celebrity to me, where my love turns to adulation in lieu of real contact. Which is to say, fan culture is so complex and hearty. More than occasionally aggressive. I wondered how I could apply it to the minutiae of my relationships and my own less than flattering set of behaviors.”
Watch the below the video for “Superfan”, the video was co-directed alongside collaborator Alex Gandar.
Chelsea Jade comments on the video treatment itself, “I’ve always felt cumbersome, never knowing when to retract or contract. I think everybody contorts themselves in reaction to company in order to be acceptable. I’m tall and imposing and I mitigate my behavior to account for that feeling. This video takes that experience to a surreal place. A physical manifestation of internal warping. Also, It’s become an incidental tradition to put myself in strange danger for videos and committing to stilts felt appropriately terrifying.”
