VERSUS - DIVA!

VERSUS - DIVA! 2022

This music video comes from a position of feminine self-expression and autonomy. We stand as witnesses to a woman giving birth to another part of her identity. In this case, let’s take it in a literal sense as we will see The Saint pushing The Whore out of her body. We begin with these two women celebrating their sensuality and having a firm grasp of their autonomy. And then as the story progresses, we are introduced to a new character who’s convinced it’s his right to take that agency away. But he’s clearly misguided. DIVA! is the pursuit of amplifying the very fact that The Saint in us can co-exist with The Whore as well as The Bitch, The Slut, The Boss, The Motherfucking Diva, and a lot more. It is a celebration of our endless rebirth.
