Coldplay and Rihanna have revealed a behind the scenes footage from the shoot of their 'Princess of China' video via the ColdplayVEVO YouTube account, but the video has since been made private, according to viewers this evening. However, this hasn't stopped the video from appearing on Perez TV via the Perez Hilton celebrity website (they like the trailer by the way).
Some of the behind the scenes shots include Rihanna and Chris Martin being hoisted in the air by wires as well as the Coldplay frontman brandishing a samurai sword, while Rihanna lays comfortably on a sofa in traditional geisha attire. The accompanying music video will see Chris Martin and Rihanna team up to create an "old kung-fu styled" movie, according to Rihanna in the backstage footage. Jonny, Will and Guy do not feature in the video, or the Behind The Scenes footage.
Expaining the concept of the video, Rihanna says: "The final concept is, like, a movie trailer to an old kung-fu film. how awesome is that, right?" adding, "I get to play a bad samurai bitch!"
The video for 'Princess Of China' is expected to premiere in full within the coming weeks.
