UPDATE: Daniel Bedingfield read this very story and wishes to say that we "have #awaywithwords lol". He tweeted about it earlier:

We'd like to return the compliment: we really do think you have a way with words yourself, and a way with images, too. Also, this is a very proud day for us.
Our original story...
We all remember Daniel Bedingfield as the squeaky-voiced mastermind behind late 90s/early 00s classics Gotta Get Thru This and If You’re Not The One. We also remember him for being the brother of Natasha Bedingfield. But now all of that has been scorched from our memory as we will now remember him as that guy who sat in a washing machine for a music video.
Well, it’s not quite a washing machine, it’s more…a rotating block full of water. And sometimes blood. It doesn’t quite fit in with the song, which is quite happy and jolly, though
And of course we really weren’t expecting for him to get his willy out in the video, or the video to be so sex-laden, but it has been a while since we saw him, so maybe this is a way of him shocking us back into remembering who the hell he is.
Or perhaps he just wanted to gross us out with his Secret Fear. Just in case the description of the video didn’t tell you, it is GROSS and full of SEXY bits. So don’t watch it if you’re under 18 or at work. Enjoy!
