Hey guys! Guys! I got news! Did you hear that Leona Lewis' new video for "I See You" cost over $300 million to make, thus making it the most expensive video ever made and that Leona Lewis' real skin color is blue? Okay wait. Those are basically lies. But, Leona Lewis' new video, "I See You" is from the movie Avatar, which DID cost over $300 million, and, like the good, blue-skinned Na'vi people of Pandora, Leona Lewis also gets the blue treatment in the video. "I See You" was written by Oscar- and Grammy-winning composer James Horner, which is why it sounds almost exactly like "My Heart Will Go On" from Titanic. True, "I See You" is no "Happy," but joke's on us, because "I See You" was already nominated for a 2010 Golden Globe for Best Original Song.
