On Friday (3.03,) Sparks dropped their the video – featuring Cate Blanchett – for their brand new single “The Girl Is Crying in Her Latte.”
Positioned in between the iconic electronic duo( aka brothers’ Ron and Russell Mael,) Blanchett appears in the sparse, artsy visual wearing thick black glasses, red headphones, a bright yellow two-piece suit as she dances to the heavy synth instrumentation with a deadpan facial expression..
In a press release about about casting the superstar actress in their new video, the Sparks brothers said “We met Cate Blanchett in Paris at the César Awards last year.” “Little knowing that a year later, one of the great actors of our time (and a splendid person!) would graciously consent to lending her bootie-shaking skills to the first video from our new album, ‘The Girl Is Crying in Her Latte.’ Dreams really do come true. We will sleep well tonight knowing that forever we can say we co-starred in a film with Cate Blanchett!”
“The Girl Is Crying in Her Latte” is the first single from Sparks’ 26th album of the same name which will be released May 26, anfd will be supported by a series of world tour dates, with several stops in Europe and North America starting May 23.
