ARI DAYAN'S GOT A NEW EARWORM FOR VANITY'S SAKE

LA Native Ari Dayan is already becoming well-known for her unorthodox lyrical prowess and her invigorating live-wire pop sound, and her latest song really shows exactly why her star is shining so bright lately.

"ozempic wegovy mounjaro" is a very curious name for a song. The three drugs are known treatments for type 2 diabetes, however, that's not exactly why they've been in vogue lately, as the three have become trendy in their usage (most famously by celebrities) in the aid of weight loss.

Ever keen on stirring up the pot a bit, Ari Dayan decided to tackle this controversial topic with a cheeky attitude and her signature glamorous pop-diva sound. The result is rather hilarious but undeniably catchy -and danceable- as well. Though the song was released earlier this March, the music video is fresh off the press.

With her characteristic irreverence close to the surface, Ari presents us with a sardonic music video mocking outrageous celebrity habits in a good-spirited takedown of vanity and obsession while also playing with some imagery that can be easily construed as a warning to those who would glamorize unhealthy practices. The music video was Directed by David Simon Dayan while the song was co-written and produced by Ethan Robert. No question about it, 2023 is looking bright for Ari Dayan.
