· Brandon Flowers, the Killers frontman who's gone solo as of late, was captured by ninjas in a sepia-tinged neighborhood. Wait. Silly us. That's just his new music video! Ah! It kind of makes sense now. To help him escape from the ninja assassins in the clip for "Crossfire," director (and Verge alum) Nash Edgerton recruited Oscar-winning ninja star enthusiast Charlize Theron. Considering Brandon Flowers is known for his '80s throwback shtick, I think it's fair to nickname his Charlize video "Come on, Aileen." [YouTube]
