Last night FabUK and I headed to Beach Blanket Babylon in Notting Hill for a party and screening of the fun and bizarre musical short The Town That Boars Me. It has cameos from familiar faces like Sadie Frost, Zandra Rhodes, Jodie Harsh and Kelly Osbourne (who was missing from the party due to her black eye), as well as the lovely Sophie Ellis-Bextor who we managed to have a few words with! Make sure you check out what she said about her expensive boots to FabUK, and here's what else she had to say to us:
As we headed over she was with her man Richard Jones (The Feeling) who she introduced as "her husband and sometime bodyguard", at which he jokingly said "I'm watching you two...". They're such a lovely couple!
- On how she got involved in The Town That Boars Me:
Basically, I’d met Ben out and about a couple of times and he said "I’m making a film and would you like to be involved" and I said “Sure”! It was fairly obvious he was a nice guy, so I just trusted him really. And my bits were all filmed in our house, so that was all really easy! - On her outfit and the heels-related plot of the film:
It’s a Zandra Rhodes dress… I think she did a lot of the costumes for the movie actually. I thought it would be a kind of macabre fairy story so I guess, yeah it turned out like I imagined. I don't think the storyline will put me off wearing heels though, I think most girls have a bit of a high heel fetish, so I’m not going to stop!
To read what Sophie has coming up and see more photos from the party, just read more.
- On what's coming up for her:
I’m actually working on my fourth album at the moment, I was in the studio today. It’s exciting, it’s going really well actually. I’m working with Calvin Harris, Freemasons... It’s very dancey, electro, disco – not a million miles away from what I’m doing now. - On similarities between shooting her cameo and her music videos:
I’m not talking in [the film], so it’s very similar. I think a lot of singers would say they’d be very flattered to be in a film, and I would be one of them. But I’m not one of those people that says “I’m a singer but I want to be an actress”, singing is my day job and I’m very happy with that.
