Fifth Harmony Step Up as New-Age Feminist Icons in "Worth It" Video
From the Spice Girls trademarking the phrase "girl power" to Destiny's Child's "Independent Women" themes, we now have a new girl group pushing a badass feminist agenda. While the Spice Girls focused on friendship and Beyoncé, Michelle and Kelly empowered their fellow women, Fifth Harmony go straight to the "dominate men" level and look to balance the scales in their new video for "Worth It."
The quintet imagine a world where old white dudes don't run Wall Street, one where the fierce 5H ladies are the ones in charge. The girls have their male assistants read the ticker tape and set up golf balls to whack in the office. Oh, and the dudes are the ones shining the shoes—ahem, heels. Meanwhile, phrases like "feminism is sexy" and "women in power" scroll across the NASDAQ-style ticker.
