Having first met on Warped Tour in 2008 and quickly becoming friends, Katy Perry and 3OH!3 have shared the stage numerous times and have finally found the opportunity to collaborate together.
"WANT" has proven a true digital phenomenon, with close to 4 million tracks sold to date. In addition to the "Starstrukk" remix, the deluxe edition also appends a Kid Cudi remix of 3OH!3's blockbuster hit single, "Don't Trust Me" and the "Still Around (Big Mix)" by beatmaster Nathaniel Motte and MC Sean Foreman themselves. The deluxe digital version will also include music videos for both "Don't Trust Me" and the original "WANT" version of "Starstrukk."
"Starstrukk (Feat. Katy Perry)" can be heard in the trailer to Touchstone Pictures' upcoming romantic comedy, "When In Rome," starring Kristen Bell and Josh Duhamel. The song will also be featured on Photo Finish Records' upcoming original motion picture soundtrack to the film, slated for release in January 2010 and received its world premiere last week on Ryan Seacrest's 102.7 KIIS-FM radio show. The track � which can also be heard at 3OH!3's popular MySpace page, www.myspace.com/3OH!3 � is set to ship to CHR/Top 40 radio outlets nationwide later this month. A companion video � directed by award-winning filmmaker Marc Klasfeld (Jay-Z, Coheed & Cambria, Foo Fighters) � is currently in pre-production, will feature the cast from When In Rome and debut in early October.
In other news, 3OH!3 will be among the stars performing at next week's eagerly awaited MTV Video Music Awards '09. The Boulder, Colorado-based electro duo � nominated for "Best New Artist" � will join official VMAs house band Wale for a unique reworking of "Don't Trust Me." In the meanwhile, 3OH!3 has set off on a "Best New Artist" campaign trail, posting weekly videos to encourage voting to help them bring home a moon man. Fans can vote for 30H!3 at vote3oh3.com and voting will continue throughout the show, set to air live from New York's legendary Radio City Music Hall on Sunday, September 13th (check local listings).
