Fresh from taking over the USA during Pride Month with performances alongside Paris Hilton and Kesha,  today Jimi The Kween returns with a dazzling new single, ‘Starlight’. This latest track is a cover of the seminal 2001 hit single by The Supermen Lovers of the same name and features the acclaimed Australian singer Zoë Badwi, renowned for her hits ‘Release Me’ and platinum-certified ‘Freefallin’’. This remake follows the release of Jimi’s anthemic banger ‘Don’t Touch The Hair’ and promises a stellar musical experience that will ignite dance floors worldwide. 

The fusion of Jimi The Kween’s dynamic energy and Zoë Badwi’s powerhouse vocals, alongside the addition of an indulgent dance production, captures the essence of nightlife glamour and the euphoric energy of the club scene. 

Jimi says, “this track has been in the making for a couple of years – I always wanted to rework this song, it’s one of my favs and I’ve had the demo sitting around for ages. Having Zoë join me on the track is really what made it perfect, two Kweens are better than one! This track is fully stacked and I am sure Australia and beyond will live for it as much as I do! Did somebody say Australia’s newest pop star!?” Zoë adds to the excitement, sharing “I’ve known Jimi for years and it was so much fun to get into the studio to make this track together. I can’t wait for everyone to hear, see and dance to what we’ve done!”

Co-directed by Jimi The Kween and Ryan Sauer (Peking Duk, Illy) the promo video for ‘Starlight’ is an ode to the height of Y2K music video excellence inspired by Jimi’s own experience of moving to Melbourne. Expect fierce pleated skirts, dazzling star queen couture, plus Melbourne’s very own Drag community. Jimi The Kween and Zoë Badwi come together for a celebratory club-pop anthem.
