Below, a list of everything that is objectively awesome about Miranda Lambert’s video for “Fastest Girl in Town.”
(NOTE: The words “Thelma” and “Louise” are hereby banned from this writeup, as that particular comparison is really played-out!)
- Whatever Miranda Lambert (we’re assuming) is wearing in silhouette with her umbrella. To be fair, lots of outfits would look 2x better in silhouette with an umbrella. Shame it’s hard to accomplish that in real, non-video life.
- The fact that Miranda and Danica Patrick–did we mention this video co-stars Danica Patrick? It does–go from zero to car theft in a matter of seconds. Even if you factor in video editing, it’s a fast job. One might call it the fastest in town.
- The paucity of fucks the old guy at the bar gives about any of this.
- The B-movie stylings, which have been done before but are still done well here.
- The fact that the guy Miranda and Danica steal from, henceforth known as Tattooed Theft Victim, probably had a subpar car in the first place, considering he can outrun them despite their being the fastest girls in town and despite the fact that his chase vehicle was the first guy to drive past.
- Said guy (henceforth: Hitchhiking Cavalry Man) being completely cavalier about having a gun in his glove compartment. OK, that part is more scary than awesome. But “do you want a lot of holes in it, or do you want no car?” might qualify.
- Every scenery shot. This is why country roads exist.
- Of course TTV is on probation. Of course he is. Miranda and Danica probably have some sort of probation-dar.
- The dude going “AUGH” at the end. Not “AAAAAAUUUUUUUUGH,” not “ugh”; it’s a very specific sort of AUGH that must be written exactly that way.
- The fact that this is basically a Pistol Annies video with Danica Patrick playing the role of Not-Miranda-Lambert. We approve.
