Duran Duran - Girl Panic!

The video of Duran Duran`s new single 'Girl Panic', reunites supermodels of the 90ties. 
Naomi Campbell is playing the role of the lead singer (Simon LeBon), Helena Christensen (Roger Taylor), Eva Herzigova (Nick Rhodes), Cindy Crawford (John Taylor) and Yasmin Le Bon who is keen to point out "I am NOT a member of Duran Duran". The girls are performing Girl Panic in the video, and they are interviewed bu the boys. 
The video seems to be a mix of consumerists signs and brands, it soaks in glamour, and celebrates decadent behaviour. The video has been shooted at the infamous hotel Savoy. 

It is interesting that underlined that the video has been styled by the Italian duet Dolce&Gabanna. And the video was directed by Jonas Akerlund, famous for his creation of Lady Gaga`s 'Telephone' video.
I find it to be a very strong promotion, for the video. It brings some nostalgic feelings, as really plays with 'the fate' of the supermodels from the 90ties.  

I am pleased to see these girls!
