Actor George Clooney tackles the lyrics of BTS’ hit song Dynamite in a video as part of W magazine’s annual Best Performance issue.
Instead of singing it in its original funky tune, Clooney decides to read the lyrics like it's a poem.
And this includes the chorus part that has the 59-year-old going: "Dy-na-na-na, na-na, na-na-na, na-na-na, life is dynamite.”
He also interjects the reading of the lyrics like exclaiming before the chorus and commenting on the part that mentions American basketballer LeBron James.
While there are many funny moments in the video, perhaps the best one is at the introduction portion when the famous jokester says: "Hello, I'm Brad Pitt. And I'm going to read Dynamite by BTS."
BTS shared the video on Twitter, to which the fans – ARMY – gave thumbs up.
Dynamite is BTS chart-topping English song, having debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. This feat does not only make it the band’s first No.1 single in the United States, but also makes BTS the first South Korean act to top the Hot 100.
Dynamite earned the band its first ever Grammy Award nomination, in the Best Pop Duo/Group Performance.
Most recently it was announced that BTS will be performing at the upcoming 2021 Grammy Awards happening on March 14 (US date).
While BTS has performed at the Grammys before, this is the first time it is performing at the awards ceremony as a nominee.
