Quick Hit: Raphael Saadiq’s “Day Dreams” Is The Latest Music Video To Feature A Lip-Synching Actor

Posted by Danielle Harling on 08/18/11 | Filed under QuickHits, Video, Raphael Saadiq



Earlier this month singer/rapper Cee Lo Green recruited actor Jaleel White (of Steve Urkel fame) to play his part in the "Cry Baby" video and it looks like Raphael Saadiq has made a similar move. In the music video for Saadiq's "Day Dreams" he enlists "Community" actor Daniel Pudi to do a good deal of lip-synching in the video. But unlike in Cee Lo's "Cry Baby" visual Saadiq does make an appearance in his music video. I think sitcom actors have just found themselves a new outlet.
