AceShowbiz – Sia Furler is getting her claws into the “Tiger King” frenzy with a parody music video inspired by the hit Netflix docuseries.
The 44-year-old “Cheap Thrills” singer dropped the one-minute rap on social media over the weekend, packed with references to feuding stars, incarcerated zoo keeper Joe Exotic and animal rights activist Carole Baskin.
In the hilarious clip, the hitmaker wears an oversized hat, much like Joe’s own headpieces as she performed the parody to the tune of “Savage” by Megan Thee Stallion.
Sia was joined by dancer Maddie Ziegler and stylist Tonya Brewer for the video, which she appropriately named “Joe Exotic (Diva Cut)”.
The music video opened with the line “Joe Exotic breeds tigers and lions, chaotic,” before mentioning the tiger breeder’s bizarre obsession with arch-nemesis Carole Baskin – calling him “psychotic.”
Later lyrics cover Joe’s relationships as well as his run for governor in Oklahoma, with the star remarking, “Turns people gay ‘cos he’s got it. Got the meth.”
They added, “Prince Albert to please his two husbands? What’s up with him?”
However, it’s all for a good cause as, in the caption to the video, Sia urged her fans to donate to The Humane Society, to help protect wildlife worldwide.
The full clip is available to watch here.
