Fall Out Boy's Demi Lovato Version Of Irresistible Music Video Is Inspired By NSync's It's Gonna Be Me Music Video

Remember NSync's It's Gotta Be Me music video from 2000? If not, go check it out on Vevo your YouTube. You will love it. Nostalgia!


Anyway, Fall Out Boy's latest single, Irresistible, is back with its third video. Following the standard release in the UK last year, there's Demi Lovato version of Irresistible.

By the way, have you check out Demi Lovato's Confident music video? It was awesome. I love how Demi Lovato fights a hot woman that shows her sexy belly button. In addition, she gets to show her butt and her breasts while she performs a women fight. Man, does she look hot? Go to YouTube and watch the music video, you might love it.


OK, back to Demi Lovato featured on Fall Out Boy's Irresistible music video. It appears that Fall Out Boy's third music video have since added Demi Lovato in the mix. She appeared in the new music video featuring Doug The Pug a few months ago, but now the group has another official music video.

The new Demi Lovato version of Irresistible music video takes us back in time to the year 2000, the final year in the 20th century, when boy bands like Backstreet Boys ruled the airwaves. Everyone remembers NSync and their toys-brought-to-life video for It's Gonna Be Me. Well now we have an updated version thanks to Fall Out Boy and Demi Lovato. The four band members get makeovers into action figures while Demi Lovato wanders the store with none other than Joey Fatone. Chris Kirkpatrick also makes a cameo, finding his own doll on the conveyer belt at the start of the clip. It's a fun music video that will likely be a bit of a flashback for everyone that was into pop music at the turn of the century. So please check out the music video on YouTube/Vevo. You might love it.


Also, you may want to revisit NSync's It's Gonna Be now, too on YouTube/Vevo.

In announcing the video on Facebook, Fall Out Boy shared the following message:

remember in the 90’s that one boy band- the biggest of them all- *NSYNCwas omnipresent. i think they could have made any throw away video and it would’ve worked because the songs were just that big. as an outsider looking in at the culture the NSYNC videos often seemed artistic and cinematic- every thing i had loved about all those videos i had taped on vhs (years before DVR or youtube was a thing). i was looking back at the video for “its gonna be me” — where they come to life as dolls-and we thought was there an analog to this story? like somewhere in that same store was there a dollar bin full of toy that no one really wanted? that would band together like the misfit, offbrand little outsiders they were. the toys no one ever wanted come to life. where would our band have fit in that story? we called up Wayne Isham, the director who did the original video (as well as some of our other favorite Mötley Crüe and Metallica videos), and pitched ideas back and forth… before long we came with the treatment- and were lucky enough to get a few cameos from the original source wink emoticon as well as our partner in crime on the song Demi Lovato.

i know you don’t have a vhs tape (probably, though there is something about all the screenshots and memes made from our videos that feels pretty close to a modern version of that vhs tape wink emoticon ) to record this. but i hope this video hits you in the same way- that you know we wanted to create something special for everyone that has ever loved an offbrand dollar bin toy, or has felt like one…

believe it or not we still believe in the magic of making these things- thank you for being a part of that with us.


Boy, I really liked how Fall Out Boy and Demi Lovato reworked the track later in 2015. I watched the music video and I loved it. It was a nice throwback to pop music from 2000-2005. 2000-2005 is where pop music like Britney Spears ruled the airwaves, traditional animation like The Emperor's New Groove already went downhill because people like kids don't seem to care for traditional animation like Atlantis: The Lost Empire and prefer CGI like Shrek and Finding Nemo, Disney has gone way downhill between 2000 and 2005 by putting in movies that ruined 2000-2005 Disney like Dinosaur and Chicken Little. 2000-2005 is also the era of video games like PlayStation 2 and Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire. Not to mention great mainstream music from 2000-2005 like Linkin Park and Avril Lavigne as well as music videos from 2000-2005 that uses 1999 music videos from 1999 like Most Girls and Don't Cha. Plus, we have It's Gonna Be Me music video with Justin Timberlake from 2000 and 2005 introduced Fall Out Boy and Sugar, We're Goin Down. Yep, I love 2000-2005. It's too bad 2000-2005 is over. Oh well. That's life. At least it's better than what we have today like Justin Bieber.

So what to you think? Do you like the music video? Are you happy to see Demi Lovato in the new Fall Out Boy music video? What do you think of former NSync members, Joey Fatone and Chris Kirkpatrick, making cameo appearances in the latest music video? Do you think this music video reminds you of NSync's It's Gonna Be Me video from 2000? Sound off below!
