John Legend has premiered his music video for “You & I (Nobody in the World)” – it celebrates women’s natural beauty, scars and all – promoting a positive body image.
Directed by Mishka Kornai, the video captures close-ups of different women from every age, race, shape and size.
There are a few stand out moments – a woman showing her baldness from chemotherapy – a young girl with Down Syndrome – an older woman who crus as she reveals the results of a mastectomy. Yep – you might be reaching for the tissues.
“We live in a world where egregious injustices occur regularly against girls and women. We have a responsibility to take action and disrupt the conditions that allow for such tragedies to occur,” Legend said. “Through #OperationGirl we hope to amplify the voices and impact of the many organizations doing great work on behalf of girls and women.”
You will notice quite a few famous faces in the video, including Orange Is the New Black star Laverne Cox, Tatyana Ali and John’s wife Chrissy Teigen.
Legend’s current hit ‘All Of Me’ is currently in its 25th week on the UK singles chart at number 11 and has over 155 million view on YouTube.
