Leighton Meester's Non-Sex Tape Equally Embarrassing
Leighton Meester is in a foot fetish-free music video for the Cobra Starship, whoever that is, song "Good Girls Go Bad," and WHOOPS, between this and the sex tape, Leighton Meester makes terrible decisions when it comes to being filmed! This is some sub-par Brokencyde is what this is. It's kind of like remember when the post-9/11 Democrats were basically giving George W. Bush a green light on every single program that he proposed and so then the Republicans swept the Democrats in the 2002 Senate race because a lot of voters figured why vote for pseudo Republicans when you could just vote for real Republicans who at least had the courage of their convictions? Remember that? This is like that. Because I hate Brokencyde, but I hate poor man's Brokencyde even more! Four more years of Brokencyde!
"Good Girls Go Bad" after the jump.
Just this six pack of energy drinks and this pack of condoms, sir. That part of the video is weird, but in fact it is even weirder than you thought. Paid product placement! I'm not saying that people should not practice safe-sex. They totally should. Obviously.
I'm just saying that the people in this video and the people who like this video should not practice sex at all. I do like this part of the NY Post article, though:
Not since Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes, a member of R&B girl group TLC, wore a condom in place of her left eyeglass lens in the 1990s has safe sex received such a starring role.
First of all, NY Post, how about an RIP up in there? Show some respect. Second of all, right. It's weird how we all forgot about safe sex during the interim.
"Remember safe sex?"
"I think so. You mean Lisa Left Eye Lopes?"
"Yeah. Her face."
Thank you, Cobra Starship.

You forgot to add Gossip Girl to the list of terrible decisions. But then again, it is the show that made her relevant...
Score = -2
Wait, these kids wear expensive clothes, text a lot on expensive phones, and hang out in dance clubs? They're just like me, I love this song.
Score = 36
She's not as terrible as I thought she would be. So ... thumbs up! I think.
Score = 4
This is horrible, but I fear that if I heard it more than five times it would become sing-along awesome.
Score = 10
You may also know the dudes from Cobra Starship from the Real World New York where one of them hit on the alternativey girl that season and they used to be called "Midtown". Even though they are from NJ. Not Midtown.
Just doing my part to provide the content that Lindsay would provide were she still here.
Score = 13
this is post-Midtown??? i remember a great "Sister Golden Hair" cover they did. and let me tell you, it did not feature a solo by Autotune.
PS. Life Tip: anybody wearing white sunglasses is a Doucheus Maximus.
Score = 6
Pretty sure only Gabe (the singer) is from Midtown. Midtown was a pretty fun Pop-Punk band, Cobra Starship isn't bad either but this song sucks.
Score = 1
Good Girls Go Bad? More like Bad Music Iz Bad.
/I want you to play with my zing-a-ling
Score = 22
I'm doing my make up like this for my best friend's wedding and no one can stop me.
Score = 9
But his white-rimmed glasses were SO IRONIC! And there was texting! Pulse of America's youth, y'all!
Score = 11
I like that the Post isn't afraid to insert a bad pun in their titles. I'm sure it wasn't hard but I'd give that journalist a raise!
Score = 13
L O L

I am only scared because you know what's going to happen right? Yep, a Serena and Dan duet.
Score = 4
When I hear Cobra Starship, it just makes me wish that the valiant members of Jefferson G.I. Joe had tried harder to defeat them. R.I.P. boys, R.I.P.
Score = 22
Guys, I accidentally went and had sex with all the members of cobra starship
what should I do?!!
Score = 15
one of my exes DID accidentally fuck a member of Midtown.
I would like to think that is why we stopped dating.
Score = 4
I'm surprised at Leighton's abjectly stupid "I am having fun" dancing face. For someone who's made a career out of playing disdainful bitchery well, I would have thought she could at least manage a sexy smirk over ~:D (emoticon science).
Score = 11
MONEY SANDWICH.
Score = 5
This song sounds like it was made for a lot of radio play. This is why I don't listen to the radio at all.
Score = 12
Most importantly: This Thursday MTV2 will be airing a 30-minute special on the making of this video. Because it will take a full 30 minutes to explain how they carefully crafted this autotuned hipster hellscape.
Score = 10
Cobra Starship = Snakes on a Plane X Space. I guess Samuel L. Jackson wasn't available, so they called in Leighton. Same diff.
Score = 0
Not defending Brokencyde 2 The Streets or anything, but that's beer they're buying with their condoms, imported beer even.
Score = 4
wait, can anyone actually decipher the narrative of this video? Leighton Meester went to a club that was in/next to a convenience store/butcher? and then the guys from cobra starship went, too? and then they danced, and Leighton Meester did a drug deal via text message? and blamed it on cobra starship? except she was actually vice (or impersonating vice and thats how they got away with it)? and then cobra starship wasn't in trouble at all (or Leighton Meester and her gal pals sprung them)?
thats all I got, and I'm not watching it again.
Score = 9
I believe this song was written by Kara Dioguardi of American Idol Judge fame.
Score = 3
So, from the intro of the video we're supposed to understand that Leighton Meester is a good girl and then Cobra Starship puts an end to that? Wasn't she totally buying beer and condoms at the beginning?
Score = 3
C'mon Gabe. Just let the young people have their songs about txting and condoms and 5 best friends.
Score = 9
trojans apparently don't prevent the transmission of glitter herpes. shame.
Score = 14
every time I see cobrastarship it's like a blast from the past (summer 2006 yall!). I forget that people still do that whole Misshapes aesthetic in a post-Misshapes world.
Score = -1
Worst. Comment. Ever.
Score = -9
A sophomore release indeed, get off my lawn!
Score = 1
Oh now I get it. She's working on her pop music career and somehow thought this would be a good catalyst. Why Leighton why?
I agree that she could work on her sexy dancing face. I mean we've seen it before when she was dancing at Chucks brothel.
Score = 4
she's a NARC?! WHUUUUUUT?
t-mOBILE!
Score = 2
Anything horrible that Cobra Starship does is immediately negated by the impenetrable cuteness of its lead singer, Gabe Saporta. I can't help it. He's adorable!
Score = -2
dunno if someone that skeevy could ever be considered "adorable"
Score = 4
this song sounds like a used diaper. i couldnt make it past 35 seconds.
Score = 4
Well, I can believe the part where he sings "I make them good girls go." But when he adds the "bad," I don't buy it. Unless he means he is such an asshole he makes good girls treat their next undeserving boyfriends like shit.
Score = 4
That lead singer looks like he got his master's degree at D-Bag University.
Score = 5
they made a money saaaaaaaaandwich
Score = 2
Who exactly is it that's supposed to be making these good girls go bad? Is it the guy with the thick white glasses or one of the other hipster impersonators at the party? That's a bold statement and you'd think it would be coming from some classically good-looking douche. And who knows, he might be classically good-looking, but I can't tell BECAUSE OF THE WHITE GLASSES. You can't have it both ways, Cobra Delta Strip.
Score = 2
In my day being a "hipster" meant loving Wilco, reading Pynchon and dressing like your college professor on Casual Day. (I got the label thrown at me quite a bit)
These guys, with their Hot Topic sunglasses and WarpedTour-radio-rock, are really just Mall-punks.
Score = 17
Hated it until the end, when starship commander sees the lady was really a cop, can't believe his eyes and pulls the classic "lower your glasses down your nose to make sure you aren't seeing things move." Then I loved it.
Score = 4
Gabe, I'm both saddened and relieved that you know about the 'band' Brokencyde. I clearly remember the day I saw one of their videos. I laughed throughout, thinking it was an SNL-style parody, and then found out it was for real. I was in a terrible mood for the rest of that week because of it...
