[edit] Music Video
The music video starts with the band pulling up to what appears to be a depiction of Jesus Christ in a back alley. They take the Messiah and transforms him into a young and sexy Pop idol. The end of the video ends with a bloodied Popstar version of Jesus being revived in the same alley where he was in the beginning of the video. Dero, the singer is shown as a depiction of the Grim Reaper.
[edit] Controversy
Various churches stood up against the song, saying that it celebrated paganism and mocked Jesus Christ.
