FABTV: Billy Joel "Uptown Girl"

FabSugar — Sat, 08 Dec 2007 07:23:22 -0800

After last week's naughty episode of FABTV, I wanted to lighten things up a bit. Who better to do so than Piano Man Billy Joel? This isn't my favorite song of his - "We Didn't Start The Fire" is SO good - but that music video didn't star one of the best American models of all time: Christie Brinkley. With its kitschy, gas station guy-inspired set, you would expect these guys to be tough and rough. But no, they are having a jolly good time singing and dancing while working. Then, the Uptown Girl rolls up in a rather Oscar de la Renta look, wearing a fabulous little black hat. I don't know where the crop top wearing break dancers came from, but once they all get together and dance it's a party.

Fab Flash: Gisele in U2 Music Video?

She's won the hearts of many over the years, but Gisele has won one big heart recently: that of U2 frontman Bono. They apparently first hit it off when Gisele appeared in Bono's RED charity campaign and refused payment, but now it's looking like they might be taking it a step further.

The model is reportedly in talks with Bono to star in U2's next music video. If it happens, Gisele will join a long and venerable list of supermodel cameos in music videos: think Linda Evangelista in George Michael's "Freedom," Christie Brinkley in Billy Joel's "Uptown Girl," and Kate Moss in the White Stripes' "I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself." Viva La Bundchen!
