Watch Kelsea Ballerini Avoid All of the Lovey-Dovey Clichés in New Video for “I Hate Love Songs”

Kelsea Ballerini dropped a new video for her current single, “I Hate Love Songs.”

The tongue-and-cheek ode to modern-day romance, which was directed by Traci Goudie, features Kelsea avoiding clichéd lovey-dovey scenarios, including catching a wedding bouquet, kissing in the rain and more.

Co-penned by Kelsea, Shane McAnally and Trevor Rosen, “I Hate Love Songs” is the second single from Kelsea’s 2017 sophomore album, Unapologetically.

“I will never forget introducing ‘I Hate Love Songs’ at the Grand Ole Opry before my record was even out, and just the overwhelming feeling of magic,” said Kelsea. “I’d never experienced anything like that before with a song. It’s sweet and sassy and I hope you love it as much as I do.”

“I Hate Love Songs” is No. 37 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart after 14 weeks.
