10 More Weird Wrestling Cameos In Music Videos
5. WWE Women Wrestlers In Sophia Grace's Hollywood
Sophia Grace and her cousin Rosie first grew to prominence after Ellen DeGeneres saw the two little girls from Essex performing a Nikki Minaj cover on YouTube. From there, the two girls launched careers in entertainment and acting, with Sophia going on to have a solo music career as a pop star. This somehow afforded her enough clout and money to fill the music video for her song Hollywood with WWE women.
It is not much of an exaggeration to say that it is one of the cringiest things ever introduced to the online wrestling community. It features appearances by the Bella twins, Naomi, Lana, and Sasha Banks as they drive around, protect, and generally hang out with a pre-teen pop star. All while brain-drilling synth music plays and Grace attempts to sing about opulence and fame. Charming.
WWE actually helped to promote the song, in their endless quest to integrate their brand into every facet of popular culture, and gave Sophia Grace a segment on SmackDown LIVE where she supported Nikki Bella.
It's hard to say what the weirdest part of the video even is. Maybe it's Lana full-on decking an over-eager paparazzi. Maybe it's all of them crowding around her at the end of the video like she just set a world record. Or maybe it's just that this video even exists at all.
