Fan Music Video Reenactments That Are Better Than The Original

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery—and these fans did it right.

By Frank Donovan

These fans are taking it to a new level—upstaging their heroes with remakes of their music videos. And we gotta say, sometimes we'd rather watch the fan version than the original. Check out these 10 creative fans who remake shot-for-shot or totally reimagine vids by Beyonce, Sia, Taylor Swift, and more.

“Grown Woman” by Beyonce

Grown Disney princesses, to be exact.

“Chandelier” by Sia

This dude appears to have lost a bet and thus had to re-create this instant classic vid. But this is pretty good!

“Booty” by Jennifer Lopez featuring Iggy Azalea

Snap! This is a lil’ NSFW, and with three more butts, better than the original if we do say so.

“Hips Don’t Lie” by Shakira

Oxford's all-male all-cutie a cappella group does well by Shakira.

“Blank Space” by Taylor Swift

There’s a disturbing lack of running mascara, but other than that, thumbs up!

“7/11” by Beyonce

“Hold that cup like lemonade/Don't you drop that lemonade” These kids rule.

“Fancy” by Iggy Azalea

This semi-disturbing remake replaces the Clueless movie with a laundromat.

“FourFiveSeconds” by Rihanna, Kanye, and Paul McCartney

Dang! We weren’t sure what to expect but these youngins bring it.

“Uptown Funk” by Mark Ronson featuring Bruno Mars

Looks like four tween sisters took over their parents vacation spot to film this remake.

“Last Friday Night” by Katy Perry

This is spot on—except no Kenny G. :/
