Nobody Beats the Wondergirls!


What do you get when you bring together the Dreamgirls, the Spice Girls, and the popularity of Beyonce's Single Ladies?

Why, you get the Wondergirls!

A few weeks back I posted a video of some police officers doing a crazy dance to a catchy non-American pop song. If only I knew it was the tip of the iceberg. Blog Buddy Kareem of Blackout Blog has been doing dogged research and found a bunch of info on this group.

First, here's the actual music video for the song "Nobody." It's very Chicago/Dreamgirls-y...


And, much like Single Ladies, "Nobody" launched a million imitation ships. But, unlike American versions of Single Ladies (Shane Mercado notwithstanding) all of these are very impressive!

Young High School Gays


Thai Boys in Ties


Police Officers


And even an ACOUSTIC AMERICAN version


Oh, and if you're hooked on the song like me and my friends... you can find Nobody on iTunes (and yes, I've already bought it).

  1. I love the police officer one because it must've taken a while to edit all those shots in together. Hell, I don't even know how to create videos like that where there are multiple versions of yourself..

    Gotta love Korean pop being as strong as Jpop now
