WhatsUpElle - "x3" (Times 3) - Parody of E.T. by Katy Perry ft. Kanye West

Fun video/parody about one of my absolute FAVE youtubers, WhatsUpElle :D After rewatching all of Elle's previous vids in search of her strategically hidden baby bump (best baby-bump-hiding ever!), the whole first chorus just popped into my head one day while obsessively listening to Katy Perry's E.T. (the one ft. Kanye West). With so much Elle footage floating around my brain, I was like heck yeah, I am totally making a full parody out of this! Proud member of the Ellegiance :D

Took a couple weeks to write/revise & then get the lyrics memorized & the timing down. (Just to sing that one line backwards was project in itself. Elle, you need to be given an award for being the ultimate master of backwards singing!) Omg the beat on the karaoke track is forever embedded in my brain--it's the only thing I've been listening to/singing along with in my car for over a week... DUN nun nun nun nun nun nun, NUH NUN NUN, nun nun nun nun nun—sorry it haunts me in my sleep. :P

All the lyrics to "x3" are below. I appreciate all your comments, likes, faves, etc. Remember to SUBSCRIBE to Elle's triple-fun channel... every time her phone dings, a clone gets its wings! (...or something like that :D)

LYRICS:

You got a brilliant mind
You got creative ways
One day you multiplied
Two clones are what you gained

You're dynamic, cinematic
And ecstatic
That's why you get
So-o-o-o-o-o
Many su-u-ubs

Whateverhollywood
Barelypolitical
Thanks to your magic wall
You're known as whatsupelle
You're the kind of artist
Who makes everybody laugh a lot
Adorable, impressive
Awesome video perfectionist

You've covered Taylor Swift
You taught me to sing backwards
straw CAB gnis ee NEH vol oo
(reverse translation: We love when you sing backwards)

You're on another level
You're so Usher OMG-ish
Keep watching you on repeat
Danced to "Not Afraid"
Pepsi superbowl commercial
Freaked out when it exploded :)
They do not have names
But are unique, as they've informed you

They're from a digital world
And they love attention
You put them in videos
And we love it, thumbs-up it
'Cause girl, you've got mad talent

What's up Elle
What's up Elle
One is not enough
Glad you've got two more
Elle x3
Elle x3
Here in the Ellegiance
We know clones exist

Girl you're so phenomenal
It's only natural
That you would clone yourself
So the world would have more Elles

Watched you at super-speed pace
After you got stuck in slow motion
And later did stop motion
They formed an 80s band
Of course you'd want to join

A hotel room is your stage
One of them dressed up a vacuum
You guys fit in a suitcase
And cabinets too
Is there nothing Elles can't do?!

What's up Elle
What's up Elle
Three is not a crowd
When you're rockin out
Elle x3
Elle x3
Here in the Ellegiance
We know clones exist

Girl, you're so beautiful
You could be a model
The clones didn't think you could
The fishies knew you would

Triple threat: dance, edit, sing
When new viewers hit subscribe,
Your phone dings
Trendy outfits, slight curve jeans, the cutest pair
Looking fine, rockin Day-After Hair
FCP7, you upgraded after 6
We know what's next, baby clone-ettes
Gotta keep the clones in check
Gotta say to them
"See I created you
So we're gonna bust some moves
And we're gonna get more views
Get more views, get more views"

What's up Elle
What's up Elle
Congrats on the "triplets"
They're going to love Pop Chips
Elle x3
Elle x3
Here in the Ellegiance
We know clones exist

Girl, you're so phenomenal
It's only natural
That you would clone yourself
So the world would have more Elles

What's Up Elle
What's Up Elle

Elle x3
Elle x3

Girl, you're so beautiful
You could be a model
Elle x3
What's Up Elle
We love ya, girl you rule

barely political lol i made a really bad group video with them last summer at a partner meetup and never uploaded it XD I love how excited you get over scrunchies haha awesome. "this is the international symbol for model..maybe i did it wrong" you forgot to flip your hair back with a lil attitude haha fierce.

[shemaybelieveyou]

@goofydood You got to hang out w/barelypolitical?! That sounds so fun! Shame your vid didn’t turn out well.

As for my fantabulous supermodel skills, I think I-- *hang on. completely distracted by scrunchies. look! neon scrunchies!!* --As I was saying, I think I have to master the art of smizing first. Unfortunately I can’t even do a sexy wink... not fierce. ;( I didn't win America's Next Top WhatsUpElle *sad model pout*

[EmmaAndEva123]

Amazing! I loved the backwards bit! Hahaha! Maybe you were a bit pitchy but whatever your really creative for making this! You have talent girl! Xoxox Eva

[shemaybelieveyou]

@EmmaAndEva123 Thank you so much, Eva!! <3 I'm glad you liked it. Singing backwards was even harder than Elle described! She & the clones must be masters at it by now! :) It was really fun though. Elle is a fabulously delightful inspiration :)

[ericypooo]

OMG you are so awesome

[shemaybelieveyou]

@ericypooo Thanks so much! And thanks for the sub! :D

[whatsupelle]

OMGosh this is so AMAZING of you!! The lyrics, rhyme, rapping, everything goes together so well, and I have NO idea how you memorized all of it- WHOA!! I'm so impressed :)

But nevermind me, YOU are so talented- your voice sounds better than Katy Perry on this song! Plus, you have a great on-camera presence.

"The backwards singing still sounds creepy and German"...LOL!! Baby Clone-Ettes, Awe...means so much to me, thank you!! xoxo Elle

Back to Old Youtube... ;)
