Rina Sawayama - Ordinary Superstar (Official Video)

Rina Sawayama just teamed up with fashion pal Nicola Formichetti and yours truly on the music video for her poptastic single, Ordinary Superstar. Inspired by Tokyo’s glamorous 1980s club scene so adored by both of the artists’ mothers, we join Rina for a fabulous night of karaoke before she hits the town in some distinctly throwback looks.

Directed by Can Evgin, the video was styled and conceptualised by Nicola, made up by an all-Japanese beauty team, and based on a vision by Rina herself. Check those moves - she’s no ordinary superstar!
