Why Do You Let Me Stay Here?

Perennial Whisper Crush Zooey Deschanel just premiered the first music video from She & Him, her musical collaboration with indie crooner M. Ward on FNMTV. A decidedly charming low-budget affair, what the video lacks in polish, it makes up for in cuteness by way of faux cell animation and a number of dresses on Zooey. Swoonfest! The whole affair was directed by Ace Norton, who has been nominated by the MVPA for 2008 Director of the Year.

On a related note, the current issue of BlackBook magazine has a really good article on our favorite It Girl, accompanied by photos that are the print manifestation of summer heat.

P.S. Check out this throwback post if you missed it the first time for a duet of Zooey and Lavender Diamond's Becky Stark covering ABBA.
