Will Young is Pregnant in His New Video. Um, Okay...

but almost all his videos are weird weird weird

Since the video doesn't reveal Will's condition until about half through, the moment wasn't as surprising as I could have been. Maybe, Michael, you could have told us that Will Young has an important health/medical update for us...

Still, when I saw Will and his beautiful belly mid-way through the video, I smiled as widely as I have in days. Will is pure frothy pop star, but he's a sweetheart who has a way with hooky songs. The video's funny and subversive. And I really love that Will doesn't hook up with some hunky doctor who fixes everything -- he's keeping his baby and going it alone.  

 

I gotta say, the way the video and song captivated me, I kinda forgot he's not suppose to be able to get pregnant.  I was just going along with what an adorable pregnant boy he was and I was like "You go head getting ready for your baby!!!"

Also, what a beautiful silent actor he is.  I don't know if he's ever done any acting but he was just lovely to watch all the different emotions and his physicality.

Strange as this sounds, it just seemed natural that he should be pregnant.  

Great video, lovely pop song. I'd buy it.  I'd listen/watch on repeat.

I agree about the spoiler alert though.  It would have been nice to have the surprise since the video makes it a surprise.

In Grace (love the song, btw!) he had a love relationship with a horse, now he's pregnant? How come his music videos are always so weird? Still love the guy though, and his music! 

 

Harvey Milk: You gotta give 'em hope.

Just remembered an old music video where he's actually pretty normal (and looking good). The song is nice too..

The eating the pickle and ice cream. . Really Cute.

I don't understand why Will Young hasn't been promoted here in America. He was the first Idol winner. He set the stage for Kelly Clarkson, Clay Aiken, Jennifer Hudson, Carrie Underwood, Chris Daughtry, Jordin Sparks, Adam Lambert... even William Hung and Sanjaya Malakar wouldn't have been households name if there had neither been a Will Young nor Pop Idol. The guy is a great singer and a great personality. And yet while Leona Lewis, Paul Potts, and Susan Boyle are thrown at the world at large, the guy who in a way made it possible for them to even have careers, Will, is barely known outside Great Britain. 

that Will Young hasn't been pushed in the States. He's rather too low key in both image and music, I think, to cross over to the USA. Even in his quirky videos, it's usually the concept that takes centre stage, not really Young himself - he plays his part in his own unassuming, good-natured way.

I don't think one can compare him to Paul Potts or Susan Boyle, both of whom would not have their media profile and success without their "ordinary joe/jane" back story.

i love Will so much, he is a very talented artist even if in a bit strange way,and i like his new song,the clip is adorable! but i can't stop wonder how he could looks so natural being pregnant?! just amazing! :)

Law suit? Hehehe.  

He's positively glowing!

Seriously, he looks lovely here, better than he has in ages.

 

No, not "distant gay traces" -- it's distingué traces!

I haver to say that I never really liked Will Young. Up untill now, at least. I've gained a newfound respect for the man as of late. Not only did he come out before the tabloids outed him, but he's also totally unashamed of who he is. In fact, he revels in it. I love the way he seems to like pushing the envelope with weird music videos.

Also, kudos to Will for the amazing acting in the vid. His facial expressions and body language is totally adorable. The pic of him on the couch, eating god only knows what, is totally hilarious.

 Question: is that a tattoo I spie on his arm?
