 DURAN DURAN PREMIERES “GIRL PANIC !” VIDEO ON VEVO TODAY Creates Ultimate ‘Super’ Group Featuring NAOMI CAMPBELL, CINDY CRAWFORD, EVA HERZIGOVA HELENA CHRISTENSEN & YASMIN LE BON Nine-Minute Video Directed By Grammy Award-Winner Jonas Åkerlund In Collaboration with Swarovski Elements

 

Rock icons Duran Duran have unveiled their hotly anticipated new video today on Vevo.com, a nine-minute short film for the song “Girl Panic !”, taken from their recent, critically acclaimed new album ALL YOU NEED IS NOW. Watch the premiere here on Vevo and here on YouTube.

 

 

Directed by Grammy Award-winner Jonas Åkerlund, this dazzling video reunites five of the world’s top supermodels - Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Eva Herzigova, Helena Christensen and Yasmin Le Bon with the members of Duran Duran in a day-in-the-life-of exposé, where the girls take on the roles of the members of the band and the guys are in the supporting cast as bellhops, waiters, chauffeurs and members of the press. The short film, shot in and around The Savoy in London over two days earlier this summer, was produced by Black Dog Films and made in association with Swarovski Elements. The world-famous crystals were incorporated not only into the fashion and jewelry, but also in the sparkling interior objects and furniture, and the Swarovski Crystal Curtain.

 

The five ‘supers’ bring their own style, irreverence and personality to the character of each band member, as Naomi Campbell steps up to the mic as lead singer Simon Le Bon, Cindy Crawford strikes a pose as bassist John Taylor, Eva Herzigova embodies keyboardist Nick Rhodes as the only blonde in the band, Helena Christensen rocks out as drummer Roger Taylor and Yasmin Le Bon makes a droll turn as ‘the anonymous guitarist’. Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana play Harper’s Bazaar UK’s guest fashion editors for the day during a photoshoot scene (still images from which form a 22-page cover story for the December issue of the magazine.)

 

Encompassing every ounce of trademark Duran Duran humour and glamour, the stunning short film tops any video the band has ever made and has been the most talked-about music and fashion collaboration of the year. Duran Duran has sold more than 80 million albums worldwide throughout their career.

‘Music City 411- Robin Gibb Tribute

By: Andrew Vaughan

It’s truly heartbreaking to see the pain Robin Gibb’s family is going through right now. The Bee Gees singer is in a coma after suffering with liver cancer and most recently pneumonia. Of course, several big name pop acts have passed away recently- Davy Jones of The Monkees probably the most recent. Now I knew Davy to talk to but I’d never met his family. Which is why hearing about the Gibb family’s pain surrounding Robin is so difficult to handle.
