Interviews - Good and Bad

Good interview
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UOtJUmiUZ08
She seems interested in what Katy Perry and isn't rude. She asks a lot of questions and doesn't try to make Katy embarrassed about anything. Some of the time you can see that Katy isn't expecting some of the questions but she still answers them. Most of what the presenter says seem to be written down as notes as that s what she is holding so at least you know she is prepaid.

Bad interview
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5X1VIyZe3Ws&feature=related
This interview is bad because of the presenter, he is unable to stop laughing because of the mans voice. No one should laugh at something like that when it comes to interviewing them as the man did look embarrassed, also the woman next to him looked upset the entire time so it looks like something bad has happened. I couldn't understand what was being said because it is in a different language but the presenter did apologise at first but continued to laugh.

Paramore - monster music video

Paramores new music video for their song monster seem to come out of no wear. Throughout the video they seem to have a lot of anger but they do not show it to well. The  video is different for the band as most of their music videos are colourful and bright, in this one there are few colours so that you focus more on the song. In the video they have a lot happening, a lot more than normal and some times there is to much much going on and too fast. Their music hasn't changed to much but the band has, as this is the second song about there band and how they have broken up. In conclusion i do believe that they are still getting better no matter how many of them thetre are in the band
