Vanity Project

 

 Congratulations to Brett Bisogno, who created this winning entry for Carly Simon's "You're So Vain" video contest that asked fans and filmmakers to create the first and only concept video to accompany her iconic hit. Bisogno won a grand prize of $10,000 and had his winning video premiered tonight at the Tribeca Film Festival, and featured on AOL's Spinner.com. To me, the video is a case in point as to why some songs are better off without a video -- I never imagined the winner of the Joaquin Phoenix on Drugs lookalike contest to be the man evoked in Carly's still-mysterious song. But Carly looks gorgeous and seems to be having fun -- and at this point, isn't that what's it's all about? 

See all the finalists HERE.
