Goth rocker Marilyn Manson and pin-up model Dita Von Teese couldn't stand each other after their brief marriage broke down - but in the most unlikely of circumstances, Die Antwoord got them back together, sort of.
For Yo-Landi Vi$$er and Ninja's latest music video, Ugly Boy, Manson and a semi-nude and Von Teese, who were married for a year, were also joined by model Cara Delevigne, the Red Hot Chili Peppers' Flea, and actor Jack Black.
The video is directed by Ninja, and as expected, is NSFW (not safe for work), what with the gore and vulgarity - and even an unidentified man in blackface wearing a sweater which reads, "Hi, My Name is God".
By yesterday [Wednesday] afternoon, the video had already seen more than 1.1 million views on YouTube, where it received mixed reviews.
One user, stevo322 wrote in the comments section: "Ugh...how people can make a living off making such awful music with such an ugly annoying sounding woman is beyond me. Perhaps I should consider making music..."

Die Antwoord's latest album, Donker Mag, dropped in June.
