Cher Lloyd premieres the music video for her latest single "I Wish," featuring Hustle Gang leader T.I., a track that sees the former The X Factor star wishing she was taller, had loads of cash, had style, and could wake up with a butt and a rack. The clip itself just shows Lloyd trying to get T.I.'s attention while working….did she?
"I think a lot of girls struggle with body image or get pissed off because the prettier girl with everything gets the guy," states Lloyd about the catchy record. "You want all of the things you think that other girl has. That’s not fair, and I think I should challenge that with the song. My favorite line of the song is, 'I wish I woke up with a butt and a rack'. That's exactly how I feel, and I think a lot of girls feel like that. That’s what I really want my fans to connect with. I’ve always said, ‘If you can’t take me as I am, don’t take me at all because I will not change for anyone'."
"I Wish" is the lead offering from her much-anticipated sophomore album and follow-up to 2012’s 'Sticks + Stones', due out later this year via Epic Records.
Cher Lloyd is currently on the road with Fifth Harmony.
