Music video
The official music video for "Most Girls" was directed by Hannah Lux Davis and premiered May 23, 2017. The clip begins with Steinfeld rebuffing a man who claims she is "not like most girls." Throughout the majority of the video, Steinfeld "channels" various different personas, including a boxer, party girl, and a bookworm. Arielle Tschinkel of Idolator wrote that the video's premise emphasizes "that girls can be whoever they want to be," while the Daily Mail added that Steinfeld is "celebrating being a woman" in the video. At the end of the video, Steinfeld is joined by a group of young women wearing T-shirts emblazoned with positive attributes such as "fearless" and "relentless."
While the video received praise for its message of embracing individuality, it also drew some criticism for its lack of diversity. "All of these girls are extremely thin and femme," writes Aimée Lutkin of The Muse-Jezebel, "so in reality most girls do not appear in this video."
