I've watched Apple fanboys declare their love for all things iOS and iPhone in a lot of strange ways while pretending that those who favor other mobile platforms would never do anything silly. But today the pretense is over — because there's simply no way to ignore the existence of rapping Windows Phone fangirls.
Yes, you read that right.
(Msnbc.com is a joint venture of Microsoft and NBC Universal.)
For whatever reason a group of girls — who call themselves Carly, E-Town, Elise, and Emily — decided to express their love for Windows Phone in an absolutely ridiculous rap video. As someone who would never have the guts to make such a video, I've got a lot of respect for the girls' bravery and envy them for the fun they appear to be having.
But there's just no way to take lines such as "keep my phone in my back pocket, Powerpoint's always on my hip socket" seriously.
Watch the full video and you'll see what I mean:

Was it just me or did anyone else get that "sleek on the outside, Microsoft inside" pun. :P
I prefer Android, myself :)
Android all the way! :)
Windows phone 7.5 rocks! I really do believe MSFT knocked it down this time.
Right before seeing this video, I watched one about Mcdonalds egg supplier and it's vile treatment of animals. I am not sure which one was more painful to watch. Holla. <groan>
Let me have a window phone as a compliment first .
That was quite special. As of now, I am an Android user but I have been paying attention to WP (mostly due to the fact i love my Zune HD and Xbox 360). When I can get a phone early next year, I will look at everyone's offerings and make a decision based on performance rather than Corporate logo
"painful" doesn't begin to describe this. i think it just melted the wax out of my ears. at least the three in the back can claim some innocence, but girly in front should just be embarrassed. sorry girls - love the phone, but that vid should be banned
