Elmo and Katy Perry are both pop culture icons who occasionally wear brightly colored hair. Thus, a collaboration between the two on Perry’s hit song ‘Hot and Cold’ may not be as strange as it initially seems.
The accompanying music video is similar to the original Hot and Cold music video, involving Katy Perry chasing her prospect around in a gown and veil.
Elmo plays Katy Perry’s love interest as he runs around Sesame Street trying to escape the clutches of her love. Regardless, Elmo and Katy Perry make a convincing troubled couple. Watch out, Russel!
