Watch Lily Allen Kidnap Elton John in the “Who’d Have Known” Video
It's Like a Sexier Version of Misery
Oct 19, 2009 Lily Allen
Lily Allen‘s silly, U.K.-centric feud with Elton John just ratcheted up a little with this creepy/sexy clip for her new single, “Who’d Have Known.” If you recall, last September at London’s GQ Man of the Year Honors show, Lily was drunk and got into a bit of a verbal tussle with the piano man at the podium.
The dark video sees the LDN singer kidnapping an actor portraying John and tying him up in her apartment. She then makes him read cue cards to the authorities that say he’s OK and that he’s fallen madly in love with his captor. Yeah…this is probably more creepy than sexy. Watch the embedded clip below.
