Most Expensive Music Video of All Time

For the longest time the winner was "Scream" by Michael Jackson, coming in at 7 million dollars. The nearest predecessor was Puff Daddy's "Victory" at 2.7 million. Michael Jackson beat him about by almost 3 times.

That of course, was until Madonna came along and made "Die Another Day", the theme song to the James Bond movie called, obviously, "Die Another Day". It was a pretty cool video, with an awesome action scene and lots of bouncing JAMBAS.

I thought that was it... until today. And you'll never guess what it is. It's $13 million. A whole thirteen million, almost two times Michael Jackson's amount. And the craziest thing is, there's no special effects in this video at all. And its the first American music video ever to be filmed entirely in the People's Republic of China.

What is it you ask?

Why, 30 Seconds to Mars: "From Yesterday".

I know. I'm amazed too.
