The Brown in Boybama

Are you in a battleground state? Still undecided on how to vote? Do you really like boy bands, but were always turned off because none of the boy bands had a token brown man? … Then this video is for you.

Battleground for Your Heart was a Boybama brain child of the folks at Portal A Interactive. And the desi actor is Lavrenti Lopes (with the best headshot ever on his site). Why did the production team create this video?

When we saw Sarah Palin desperately trying to win over our hockey moms and Joanna Sixpacks, we knew that we couldn’t just stand idly by. So we decided to make this parody music video in support of the Obama campaign and to show women everywhere that we can shamelessly pander with the best of them.[Aportal]

It’s hump day so I thought a syrupy video to make your work day cheesier is just what you needed. We only have six days until Election Day. Don’t forget to drop off your absentee ballot in the mail by this Friday – ballots need to be received (not postmarked) by your Registrar of Voter by Nov 4th!

    Sorry, I like my biceps and triceps the way they are 😉 Who is “we” anyway?
