Janelle Monáe & Nile Rodgers Join Duran Duran In The Video For "Pressure Off"

Perhaps some of you recall a certain installment of Ellen where Brit pop darlings Duran Duran were saved by the likes of Janelle Monáe and the mighty Nile Rodgers from total antiquity. Well, today good friends, Duran Duran has let loose a new black and white treatment for their energetic and star-studded pop tune, joined, of course, by the Funky Android and the perennial hitmaker.

There's leather (lots of it), zippers and what I can only assume are trampolines that propel Monáe and the band onward and upward. You can watch Duran Duran's new clip for "Pressure Off" with Janelle Monae and Nile Rodgers below. Catch the band on the road in the UK around Thanksgiving.

Their new album Paper Gods is out now on iTunes.
