It brings tears to my eyes': Justin Timberlake's

He moved his fans when he revealed his latest music video for track Mirrors last month.
But it's Justin Timberlake's grandmother who admits the promo reduced her 'to tears' when she first saw the emotional and 'beautiful' story.
And rightly so as the video is a tribute to herself and her late husband William, Justin's grandfather, who sadly passed away at the end of December.

Fresh track: Justin Timberlake has released the music video for his new single Mirrors, which moved his grandmother to tears when she realised it was a tribute to her long marriage to his late grandfather
Now Sadie has opened up about how she feels about the video for the first time, revealing it was a complete surprise to her until Timberlake sat her down to watch the story unfold.
She told this week's Grazia magazine: 'Justin didn't tell me he was doing it (making the video), it was a surprise. He said, "you have to see this video, just you sit down and watch it." I was moved by it, it brings tears to my eyes. It's a lovely tribute to us.'
The singer took inspiration from his grandparents in the new promo clip for his new single, featuring an elderly couple who flashback to their experiences together in younger years.

At the start of the video, text shows a dedication to granddad William - who died late last year - and grandmother Sadie Bomar.
Then the mature couple pull at viewers’ heartstrings as they pick up objects like books and clothing which induce memories of turbulent times.
The 32-year-old’s piece is directed by Floria Sigismondi, who put her hand to movie The Runaways starring Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning and the new video for singer David Bowie's song The Stars (Are Coming Out Tonight), featuring Tilda Swinton.

The musical love story reflects some eerie images which include one character being a human photobooth as a strip of wallet sized pictures are ejected from the body.
A 20-something bride appears to be distraught on their wedding night, wearing white lingerie, her face is smeared in black mascara after plenty of crying.
In contrast to the downs, the characters can also be seen dancing and smiling together as they enjoy teenage years, adult unions and elderly companionship.

Justin’s grandparents were married for 63 years, and sadly for Justin William’s ill health prevented him from attending his grandson’s wedding ceremony to Jessica Biel in October.
Sadie added to Grazia: 'It's dedicated to me and my late husband and it's beautiful. Justin's grandfather passed away on 29 December. He had a breathing problem. he just closed his eyes and went to sleep.'
The star himself only features towards the end of the short film, appearing in a room full of mirrors and of course showing off his famed dancing skills.

Teenage dream: While there are sombre moments the director also draws upon happy moments

At one point he is joined by an eccentrically dressed dancer who flashes before his eyes as he tried to touched her palms through the reflective surface.
But it's the moment when the woman in the video, now looking elderly, throws her wedding to Justin that touched Sadie the most.
She said: 'I like the way he catches my wedding ring, like he's the husband now. He's making a great husband. I am close to Justin and it's a lovely, beautiful thing to have done. That's how he is.'
And she's already looking forward to being made a great grandmother: 'Justin is going to make an amazing dad. They want a big family so I guess it won't be too long. They are the most lovely couple.'
