The Amazing Story Of Two Bratz Dolls In Love

thumbnail icon: The Amazing Story Of Two Bratz Dolls In Love

The most charming thing I've seen today is this fan-made video for a Pussycat Dolls song called "I Hate This Part," using Bratz dolls to tell a tragic love story, complete with black-and-white memories and big actions stunts (No, don't climb the file cabinet in anger! You'll fall!) It's funnier and more adorable than it sounds, and obviously a lot of work went into it. I think this is exactly what I would have been doing with Barbies and Amy Grant songs if YouTube had existed when I was a 'tween.

(Yes, I know Bratz doll movies are a "thing," but this is the first one I've liked.)

How adorable was that? Dear imakebratzmovies on YouTube, make your videos embeddable! This one was awesome. Own it. (Thanks to Brad for "accidentally finding this" (suuuure) and sending it along.)

It's hard to like when Brats and Pussycat Dolls are involved with the same video.

Was that Bratz doll being raped? And what was the significance of the briefcase? Shit is deep like the ocean.

What's with "skip to :30" at the beginning? Why not just...start 30 seconds earlier?

I'm having some trouble following the storyline. They're breaking up one second then rolling around on the floor in what I'm guessing is a sex scene. Then they fight and the girl climbs, slips, falls on and kills the guy for a second but then he comes back to life to cry in a blanket? Add memories of the girl kissing other bratz guyz and beating him with a stick and I am totally lost.

I watched the first ten seconds. That doll looks like the saddest hooker to ever ride in a pink carriage.

While "I Hate This Part ~ Bratz Music Video" is stylistically classic melodrama, its posture of moral ambiguity and its exploration of sexual motivation, coupled with an innovative narrative structure, mark this film as one to be discussed and debated by viewers and critics alike for years to come.

Wait, the girl Brat fell from the Filing Cabinet of Doooooooom but it was the BOY Brat who died? What? And then he was alive again? So she...killed him herself? On purpose this time? THIS WOMAN IS A MONSTER!!!!
