Sophie Ellis-Bextor relishes ‘extraordinary’ success in the US

OHMYGOSSIP — Sophie Ellis-Bextor has been amazed by her recent success in America.
The 44-year-old singer has seen her 2001 hit single, ‘Murder On The Dancefloor’, climb up the charts in recent weeks, after it featured in the psychological thriller film ‘Saltburn’, and Sophie has been wowed by her unlikely success in the US.
She told NME: “That’s what’s been quite extraordinary. To them it’s a new song, and that’s bonkers.
“It didn’t do anything there the first time around, and I’m fine with that. If I’ve learned anything along the way it’s that you’ve got to go where the momentum is.”
Sophie has previously struggled to achieve success in the US – but she’s now relishing the experience.
She shared: “The glamour of being big in America would have meant a lot of time away, and I’d rather go where there are already things happening.
“I had an absolute ball with the first record in Latin America, South East Asia and all these places – but if this ends up being something that takes me there now then let’s see what happens.”
Sophie also revealed how her track came to feature in the film.
She said: “A little while back I was asked for approval for having ‘Murder On The Dancefloor’ featured in a film.
“I was told very little information apart from the key components, like: Emerald Fennell was the writer/director (and I was already familiar with her and thought she was great), that the film was called ‘Saltburn’ and that the main character would dance to the whole of the song with nothing on!”
