Max is bringing his “ridiculous vision”Of a Kill Bill-meets-Austin PowersVisual comes to life in this silly, action-packed video for his latest single. “Wasabi.” Oh, and he enlists none other than his wife Emily Schneider as his kung-fu-fighting hero and Alyson Stoner as the video’s smirking villain.
The video follows Max’s wife — in a lime green, Seventies hero outfit — breaking into an abandoned warehouse where she fights off guards and ninjas in an attempt to free Max from the grasp of Stoner, who nearly force-feeds him a spoonful of wasabi. (Fooling torture, of course.
“Baby, you got that body/That extra little something, wasabi,”Max sings in the chorus. “Sweat through my shirt, take it off me/Come on now.”
After Emily defeats the villains, Max and Emily lock lips for a sweet kiss.
“When we wrote ‘Wasabi,’ I immediately knew I wanted something Kill Bill/Austin Powers inspired,”He tells Rolling Stone The visual. “My wife is a total badass, and I knew she could pull it off and be the superstar of the video.”
Max said that Max’s wife even had fight training. “for about a month straight”Get all the action. “Once I found out my friend Alyson Stoner was on board to play our perfect villain, it was game over,”He said. “I really hope people love this one. We had the best time making it with the whole team.”
