 Poor tortured and trussed up (literally) soul that he is BRANDON FLOWERS - of The Killers frontman fame - is lucky that he has his very own Charlize-Theron-ninja to come charging to his rescue, whenever he finds himself in the unfortunate situation of being dangled upside down, tied to the ceiling. If all the action of the 'Crossfire' music video - the lead single from Flowers' debut solo album 'Flamingo' - is how you get your kicks, you might also enjoy Maroon 5's 'Misery' music video which you can watch HERE. The video for 'Crossfire' was directed by Nash Edgerton, who's known for his stunt work on 'The Matrix' and 'Star Wars'. 'Flamingo' was named after Flamingo Road in Las Vegas. Flowers told Rolling Stone that: "As I get older, I have this desire to represent Las Vegas. When the Killers first came out, a lot of people thought we were English, and it touched a chord in me, because my roots are very American." In the same interview, Brandon also talked about a track on the album entitled 'Playing With Fire': "Because I pray at a church with no steeple, doesn't mean I can't walk with God. That song is about my journey. My parents let me live home [in Utah] when I was 15 to go to Las Vegas to find whatever it was I was looking for. And at that time I hadn't been going to church. But I don't think that just because you don't go to church you forfeit the right of having any guidance or help from God." Read the full interview with Rolling Stone HERE.
