Carter Faith Channels Old-School Country in ‘Bar Star' Music Video — With Billy Bob Thornton

Rising country star Carter Faith scored a very special guest for her new music video: Billy Bob Thornton. The Landman actor, 70, stars in the visual for 'Bar Star,' which Faith, 25, dropped on Wednesday, August 20. 'I can't believe I somehow convinced Billy to be in my music video,' Faith said in a press release. 'He is the ultimate bar star in my opinion, and I'm so grateful to him and for his friendship.' The video finds Faith channeling old-school country glamour with a curly blonde coiffure teased to the heavens as she croons into a vintage mic. 'My baby's a bar star / A damn livin' drinkin' work of art,' she sings on the chorus. 'He gets to sippin' and he goes too far / But I don't mind it, kinda like it when he goes too far / He's a happy hour hero / He's always gettin' Keystoned / Bless his liver and his honky tonk heart' / Cause my baby's a bar star.' Thornton, dressed in all black, plays the titular bar star, who goes from grinning and flirting to starting a fight in a matter of seconds. Faith is a vocal fan of Thornton's, having released a song about him as the B-side to 'Bar Star.' On 'Billy Bob Thornton (Worktape),' she confesses that she's looking for her next guy to emulate the Oscar winner. 'I want a man like Billy Bob Thornton / Tough as nails but his head's a wreck,' she sings on the first verse. 'He'll prove to me that I'm important / Wear my blood around his neck.' Country Music's Blonde Bombshells: Carrie Underwood, Dolly Parton and More That last line is, of course, a reference to Thornton and ex-wife Angelina Jolie wearing vials of each other's blood around their necks during their early aughts relationship. The former couple were married from 2000 to 2003. 'The necklaces were a very simple thing,' Thornton explained during a 2018 interview with the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. ''Hey, let's poke our finger with a pin and smear a little on there, and when we're away from each other, we'll wear the necklace.' That was that easy, but by the time it came out in the press, it sounded like we were wearing a bucket of blood around our necks.' 'Bar Star' is one of the singles from Faith's upcoming debut album, Cherry Valley, which drops in October. She has a busy few months ahead of her, touring with Little Big Town for the rest of the summer before she begins opening for Noah Cyrus in September and October. In December, she's set to head to Australia with Kelsea Ballerini. 'I'm so excited to be touring. I've never toured the way I am right now, which is frequently,' Faith told Crucial Rhythm last year. 'It's fun to get to play my songs and see who resonates with it and meet them. When you're sitting behind your phone making stupid TikTok videos, you're like, 'Who's watching this, who even cares?' So getting to meet people is really exciting. I'm kind of addicted to touring.' Faith's debut album, Cherry Valley, is out Friday, October 3. Solve the daily Crossword
