Tegan Marie waves to all the fans in the crowd while riding on the Girl Scouts of the USA float during the 2018 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City on Thursday (November 22).
The 15-year-old “Keep It Lit” singer celebrated the organization’s work to elevate girls through STEM.
The “Building a Better World” float celebrated the girls who are building a better world through science, technology, engineering and math (STEM).
It featured elements in space science (exploring telescopes, the moon, the sun, and stars), engineering (using levers to connect the globe and pedal a bicycle to power the float) and STEM in the outdoors (decorating the float with a rainbow, flowers, and Earth), as well as many STEM-related badges.
Tegan Marie is here with her fierce new music video for her empowering track “I Know How to Make a Boy Cry!”
Directed by Veronica Zelle, the country singer’s liberating video pays tribute to Elvis Presley’s iconic 1968 Comeback Special, which celebrates its 50th anniversary this year.
Set to the sound of her upbeat self-worth anthem – all about inner strength and holding your head high when young love turns sour – Tegan flips the script on an artist who famously made girls weep everywhere he went. Now it’s her turn to make the boys cry.
“I just love Elvis, that’s about the size of it,†she said. “I recently visited Graceland and it all just clicked. I got to understand him more, beyond the music. I was most moved by how much he cared for people. When my managers suggested we make a video as an homage to Elvis for my new song, it was an automatic yes!”
The video opens with Tegan playing acoustic guitar with a band before she makes a couple different outfit changes while performing on stage. Watch below!
