Anne Hathaway, Kristen Stewart, & Brie Larson are 'Just One of the Guys' in Jenny Lewis' Music Video
She may be a big rock star now but Jenny Lewis got her start as an actress, playing Super Mario Bros. opposite Fred Savage in The Wizard and starring with Angelina Jolie in Foxfire. She's since contributed to a number of movie soundtracks, including the upcoming musical rom-com Song One which stars Anne Hathaway. Um, I'll let my review of that film speak for itself, but it's clear Lewis has made quite a few Hollywood friends and she's dialed them up to be in her latest video.
Lewis convinced Hathaway, Kristen Stewart, and Brie Larson to play back-up and dress in drag for the video for "Just One of the Guys". Too much sexy in one place! I can't stand it!! If the name recalls a certain '80s comedy about a girl who dresses up as a dude then you get the gist of what Lewis is trying to pull off with the song and video, which is about the undue burdens placed on women. While it's funny to watch the ladies don their mustaches and track suits to look like guys the message is actually a serious one, and it makes me wish the song weren't so forgettable.
Lewis' first solo album in six years, 'Voyager', releases on July 29th.
