More on Derek Hough in Kate Voegele’s Video for “99 Times”
Kate Voegele is interviewed by metromix Cleveland and, of course, the topic of Derek Hough as her co-star for her new video comes up. Here are her comments about Derek:
Now I heard that Dancing with the Stars pro Derek Hough is going to star with you in your new music video. Did you get to choose your leading man?
We just kinda looked at a bunch of different people … and Derek just seemed like a good fit because he just seemed like a talented kid and we just loved him on Dancing with the Stars and, moreover, he’s a great musician and has got a really great band. He’s cool, he’s a cute kid and he seemed like he’d be a lot of fun. We figured we’d go for it and so it was really awesome when he said he’d do it. We had so much fun. We just dropped the video last week in LA. It was great. There’s not a nicer kid on the planet. It was really, really fun.
Are we going to see any lip-locking in the video?
Oh, we just might! [Laughs] Yes, we definitely have a little bit of a brief video makeout. You know, a music video isn’t a music video unless there’s a makeout. I sorta feel like that’s the label’s point of view. Frank Borin directed it.We gotta heat this up. We just all had a lot of fun. It was such a fun day.
