16) Jessie J - Who's Laughing Now 

Jessie J is undoubtedly of the success stories of 2011.

After appearing on virtually every 'ones to watch' list, she went on to dominate the charts all year with a string of hit singles and a double platinum-selling debut album.

With so many hits to choose from, we struggled to decide which Jessie J video to include in our list. In the end, we opted for her anti-bullying anthem Who's Laughing Now.

Despite the serious nature of the song, the video showed that Jessie can laugh at herself, with the 23-year-old singer dressing up as a sleep-deprived teacher, a work-shy janitor and an eccentric canteen lady.

However, it's Jessie's feisty 'mini me' that steals the show. In fact, the BRIT Award-winner was so chuffed with the young lady's performance that she invited her to appear on stage at V Festival earlier this year. Nice work if you can get it.

It may not have had a huge budget or any flashy special effects, but it's a well-executed video which perfectly conveys the song's message.
