Sigrid’s ‘High Five’ Video Is A Little High School Musical, A Little E.T.




Sigrid makes a high school her stomping grounds (and her dance floor) in the new video for "High Five," a fiery tell-off anthem that puts narcissists on blast.


The vid was directed by Ivana Bobic, who also worked with the Norwegian pop star on "Strangers" and "Raw." Their latest collab has a distinct coming-of-age vibe, with Sigrid dancing through school halls and residence parties, interrupting sports practices, and casually sticking her tongue out at boys.


The result is a little bit High School Musical, a little bit E.T. (there's a good homage to the '80s flick's classic bike-riding scene), as well as a whole lot of attitude. Check it out below.


In an interview about the video with i-D, Bobic and Sigrid elaborated on their inspiration, with the director explaining, "Sigrid and I discussed a lot about the power of friendship. We love all of the high school movies, and Spielberg films like E.T. or Close Encounters that are in a magical world however also really they’re a metaphor for friendship."


"High Five" is the latest single from Sigrid's upcoming EP, Raw, which also includes the self-assured title track and the emotional "I Don't wish to Know."
