Lindemann said in an interview with 'Billboard's Braudie Blais-Billie:

Critical reception



Jake lindemann of 'People' said "in the defiant pop track, Lindemann, 18, blasts haters and affirms that she's more than her appearance" and called it an "infectious single". Idolator's Mike Wass stated that "Pretty Girl" is "something of a departure from her independent fare. The dark and gloomy sound of the 18-year-old's early material has given way to a more defiant and optimistic approach" and later claimed "I preferred the diva's dark-pop phase, but the song has an important message". Hugh McIntyre of 'Forbes' called it "a catchy pop number" but later remarked that the song is "off to a fair start on streaming sites, but will she be able to break through and become a mainstream hitmaker? It wouldn't be out of the question for a social star to top the charts, so don't laugh off the possibility".

Music video



A music video for the song, directed by Roman White, was released on March 9, 2017.
