PJQ&A: Lindsey and Megan do ‘Starships’

Posted by Popjustice on Jun 03 2013 at about 11:22

What is this? 
It’s a cover of ‘Starships’, the Nicki Minaj tune.

No seriously what is this.
ONLY THE GREATEST MISSED OPPORTUNITY OF A B*WITCHED SINGLE OF ALL TIME.

These two should go on Britain’s Got Talent. 
Well a) they’re American and b) one of them already did that, except in America, where they call Britain’s Got Talent America’s Got Talent. Lindsey was a quarter-finalist in 2010, and she’s done quite a few covers. Her ‘Party Rock Anthem’ one isn’t quite as good as ‘Starships’, and by ‘quite as good as “Starships”‘ we mean ‘good’.

It’s a shame there isn’t a video for this.
There is.

Fair enough.
Yes.

That video has over 6m views.
Well it’s been up since last year.

Why have you written about it today?
Because @Tunewaffle off Twitter sent it over yesterday.

I’ve got a song I’d like you to feature, actually. 
Well there’s a special page on Popjustice where you can do just that.

Can I send in some ‘EDM’?
Please do not do that.

Fine, I’ll send it to Too Many Sebastians instead.
Not sure he’ll want it either.

FINE.
Fine.
