Sia, 44, twerks in leopard thong as she pays tribute to Joe Exotic with Dance Moms’ Maddie Ziegler in new music video
SIA shared a rare look at her fun side on Tuesday as she guest-starred in a music video tribute to Joe Exotic, the star of Netflix documentary Tiger King.
Written and directed by Maggie Ziegler and Tonya Brewer, the parody song mocks Joe’s obsession with Carole Baskin, his run for Governor, and his infected Prince Albert piercing, which he got “to please his two husbands”.
Wearing a large sun hat to shield her face, the 44-year-old singer kept herself covered in a bikini-print t-shirt but wore a leopard-print thong and twerked for the cameras as she sang “dropping songs about Carole, it’s ghastly”.
“Please donate to The Humane Society – LINK IN BIO,” added Sia alongside the video on Instagram.
The video was inspired by Megan Thee Stallion who posted her own version days ago featuring four young children acting out the alleged murder of Carole’s ex-husband Don Lewis.
Don’s disappearance 23 years ago played a large role in the seven-part Netflix documentary with Joe alleging that Carole had murdered her husband and fed him to her big cats.
In the popular documentary, Joe Exotic’s leopard print-loving nemesis recalls how she met Lewis in 1980 when he was still married.
He left his wife for Carole and they went on to open exotic animal habitat in Florida’s Hillsborough County.
Carole reported him missing in 1997 when his abandoned car was found in the parking lot of a small airport and she told cops he had planned to visit his home in Costa Rica.
Don was later declared legally dead and Baskin is thought to have inherited a hefty fortune of $5 to $10 million.
Joseph Fritz, the attorney of the late Don, is also adamant that there was foul play involved in the mysterious death of his client 23 years ago.
During an interview on the Fox Nation series “A Tiger King Investigation,” the lawyer said “there’s no question but that he was murdered.”
“What I had heard was that he was strangled from the backseat of an airplane over the Gulf [of Mexico] at 50 feet and dropped out over the Gulf,” Fritz said.
“He loved those cats,” he insisted. “He never would have just walked away from them. Ever.”
