New Video: HAIM, ‘The Wire’

HAIM make three grown men cry in their video for "The Wire."

We always had a feeling that L.A. sister act HAIM was a traveling trio of heartbreakers. I mean, you can't be obscenely talented singers, exceptionally beautiful, and unnaturally good at fusing '90s R&B with '70s-era classic rock without stomping on a few hearts along the way, right? And just like we predicted, that's exactly what Este, Danielle, and Alana do in their new video for "The Wire": break hearts, rock out, and make grown men cry.

The latest single from their upcoming Days Are Gone disc (out Sept. 30), "The Wire" video features HAIM eye-rolling their way through one very long, breakup-y day. All three ladies have had enough of their boyfriends (hay, Jorma Taccone from The Lonely Island aka Booth Jonathan from "Girls"!), who, to be honest, kinda seem like total wimps; once the sisters cut their dudes loose, all three guys proceed to have full-on (but very funny) emotional breakdown.

Now, don't get us wrong -- HAIM don't seem cold or inherently evil. It's just that if a guy's gonna cry on you post-breakup, it's probably safe to assume that he was a crier before the breakup. And nobody likes to date a crier (unless you're watching "Marley & Me," and then it's totally acceptable). I guess Booth Jonathan & Co. just weren't strong enough to be HAIM's men.
