Music Video

Skrillex uploaded the music video in August 2016, directed by Colin Tilley, onto his YouTube account which features himself, Rick Ross and Jared Leto as The Joker. The music video currently has over 500 million YouTube views as of November 2022. In an interview with Complex, Skrillex said that it was his idea to have Leto reprise his role as The Joker in the music video: "[The film's producers] wanted to do a music video using me and footage [of the film]. I was like, 'No, I don’t want to do one of those'. So I called Jared personally, and I really had to persuade him [to join]. He's a really good friend of mine, but for him, giving me that Joker character is not an easy thing. He really went out of his way to be a part of that video".[5] In that same interview, Skrillex also said that while filming the music video, Leto gifted him a box full of "a bunch of weird shit", as well as a dildo, which he described as "the biggest" he had ever seen. He responded to Leto's gifts in an awkward fashion: "I was just like, 'Thank you'". Leto's gifts to Skrillex were another one of the many crude gifts that the actor had previously given to other cast and crew members whilst on-set of the Suicide Squad movie; some of Leto's previous gifts included anal beads, used condoms[6] and a dead pig.[7] Skrillex also helped co-edit and co-produce the music video alongside Vinnie Hobbs and Andrew Leiros, respectively. Ironically, the music video for "Purple Lamborghini" does not feature an actual purple Lamborghini vehicle, as Skrillex stated in a Tweet that the company were unable to give Tilley and Atlantic Records clearance to use one in the video.[8] Track listing Digital download[3][9] No. Title Length 1.
