Zara Larsson gets glammed up to get down and dirty in the music video for her latest single “Pretty Ugly.” The pop musician cruises into frame in an old beat up Volkswagen, eyes smoldering in the rearview mirror reflection. When she steps out, it’s not in heels ready to hit the dance floor — but barefoot and ready to rumble.

The Charlotte Rutherford-directed visual drops Larsson into a muddy field with a gang of girls who throw her up into basket tosses and more cheer-inspired moves crafted by choreographer Zoi Tatopoulos.

Bridgerton’s Lady Whistledown would have a lot to say about PinkPantheress‘ latest single “Tonight,” the video for which finds the innovative musician derailing a regency-era ballroom performance. Directed by Charlotte Rutherford, the clip follows PinkPantheress and her crew riding up to a mansion on bikes and carriages with plans to make her the most desirable — and chaotic — diamond of the season.

Katy Perry has dropped “Woman’s World,” the first single from her seventh studio album, the dance-oriented 143—the title of which, according to Perry, represents “a numerical expression of love.” The track is the singer’s first solo single since 2021’s “Electric,” from the Pokemon 25 soundtrack.

“Woman’s World” reunites Perry with Dr. Luke, a.k.a. Lukasz Gottwald, who helmed her career-making hits “I Kissed a Girl,” “Teenage Dream,” and “Roar.” Perry reportedly chose to cease working with the producer until after his legal dispute with fellow pop star Kesha, who accused him of sexual assault, was resolved. (The parties reached a settlement last year.)

Gottwald has maintained his innocence, but that hasn’t stopped some fans from questioning Perry’s decision to collaborate with him on a song about female empowerment. The upbeat electro-pop song is stacked with toothless, pseudo-inspirational declarations like “Fire in her eyes/Feminine divine/She was born to shine.
