Please define "real". Those lights have filaments, they provide illumination, hence they are real. (Ok, I know I'm being a smartbutt.)

I think this might work better if the subject weren't looking directly at the camera. The eye contact makes it look a bit hammy (if that's a word--you know, hamming it up?)
