Miranda Lambert and Elle King get #DRUNK

While unusual music collaborations are not a new concept (in fact did you know Dolly Parton recorded Sweet Lovin' Friends with actor Sylvester Stallone for their 1984 comedy Rhinestone?) recently there’s been an increase in country artists poaching artists from other genres. From Keith Urban and Pink, Adam Brand and Casey Donovan, Carrie Underwood and John Legend, to now Miranda Lambert releasing a single with Exes and Ohs pop-star, Elle King.

Lambert teased the collaboration with a photo on social media with the caption ‘#DRUNK’. The photo sees King in a wedding dress with a beer in one hand and a cigarette in the other and Lambert in a metallic pink gown, crystal accessories and teased hair with baby's breath embellishment.
