What elements of the music video make it a visually impressive tribute to both A Star is Born and the Star Wars franchise?
Nerdist, the digital entertainment company known for its pop culture coverage, recently released a parody of the hit song “Shallow” from the movie A Star is Born. The parody, titled “A Star Wars is Born – ‘Shallow’ Parody (Nerdist Presents),” features characters from the Star Wars universe singing their own version of the popular ballad.
In the parody, Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) takes on the role of Bradley Cooper’s character, Jackson Maine, and Rey (Daisy Ridley) plays the part of Lady Gaga’s Ally. The two characters sing about their conflicted relationship, with Kylo questioning whether Rey will stay with him despite his dark side.
The song’s lyrics are cleverly adapted for the Star Wars universe, with lines like “Tell me something, Sith, are we gonna be enemies?” and “I’m sorry for the pain I’ve caused, I’m just misunderstood.”
Aside from the entertaining lyrics, the parody also features impressive vocals from both Driver and Ridley. While the original song showcases Gaga’s powerhouse voice, Ridley holds her own in the parody and adds her own unique style to the performance.
The music video itself is also a sight to behold, with stunning visuals and attention to detail in the costumes and set design. Fans of the Star Wars franchise will appreciate the nods to the movies, such as the appearance of Darth Vader’s helmet and an AT-ST walker in the background.
The parody has already amassed over 1.4 million views on YouTube, with fans praising the hilarious and well-executed take on the popular song. The video has even caught the attention of Lady Gaga herself, who tweeted out the link to her millions of followers.
Overall, “A Star Wars is Born – ‘Shallow’ Parody (Nerdist Presents)” is a fun and entertaining tribute to both A Star is Born and the Star Wars franchise. Its clever lyrics, impressive vocals, and stunning visuals make it well worth a watch for any fan of pop culture.
