Bette Midler’s “It’s The Girls!” album trailer is a promotional video released in 2014 to hype her studio album of the same name, her first in eight years. The official trailer, titled “Bette Midler – It’s The Girls Album Trailer,” is available on YouTube (uploaded around late October 2014) and runs as a short, engaging teaser highlighting the project’s theme.
Here are some key highlights from the trailer and its context:
The trailer features Bette Midler reflecting on the iconic girl groups that influenced her career, with clips showcasing her vibrant energy, glamorous style, and playful personality. It includes snippets of music previews, behind-the-scenes vibes, and visuals emphasizing the fun, empowering spirit of girl-group classics spanning seven decades—from the 1930s (like The Boswell Sisters’ title track) to modern hits like TLC’s “Waterfalls.”
The album “It’s The Girls!” (released November 4, 2014, via Warner Bros. Records) is a tribute to girl groups, produced by Marc Shaiman and Scott Riesett. It includes Bette’s takes on songs like “Be My Baby” (The Ronettes), “Tell Him,” “You Can’t Hurry Love” (The Supremes, reimagined with a western swing twist), a duet with Darlene Love on “He’s Sure the Boy I Love,” and a cabaret-style piano ballad version of “Waterfalls.”The trailer perfectly captures the album’s joyful, nostalgic, and theatrical vibe—pure Divine Miss M magic! If you’re a fan, it’s a fun blast from the past that still holds up today.
