Emily Kinney may have said goodbye on "The Walking Dead" as Beth, but that's not the last time that the actress will be seen on the screen. Entertainment Weekly reports that the 29-year-old actress and singer just debuted the music video for her new pop single titled "Rockstar."
Watch the music video below. You can also download the track on iTunes.
The video, which featured Kinney dancing and singing in an abandoned warehouse, was directed by Entertainment Weekly's Jay Sansone. According to the news outlet, "Rockstar" will be setting the stage for her upcoming album which is set to be released in 2015.
"I jumped at the chance to work with Emily because she's a double threat-an incredible dramatic actress and a pop star," Sansone told Entertainment Weekly. "You just have to roll camera on that kind of presence and let her do her thing. For this video, we chose a very clean '90s music video look and made something that resonates with Emily's style and something gritty the fans would appreciate."
In the black and white music video, the blonde actress was flaunting her midriff in a crop top with a 1980's era MTV logo printed on it. Daily Mail noted that Kinney completed her outfit by wearing a pair of black skinny jeans and a black beanie. The budding singer also revealed her dream wedding in the song.
"Gonna marry a rockstar / gonna move downtown. Instead of diamond rings we get new tattoos / instead walking down the aisle we do a backyard thing," she sings.
Kinney's second EP "Expired Love" was re-released on March this year. It features nine songs: "Expired Lover," "Julie," "Kids," "Times Square," "Married," "Doctor," "Masterpiece," "Dad Says," and "Be Good." The tracks explore "themes of love and lost relationships through quirky, relatable songwriting, but it presents a more polished and mature sound." According to Kinney's website, the EP establishes the budding singer in the indie-pop world. You can download the entire EP here.
"Expired Love" was a follow-up to her debut EP titled "Blue Toothbrush," which was released in 2011 and contains five songs. If you're interested on downloading "Blue Toothbrush," the EP is available for purchase on iTunes.
Beth's Exit From 'The Walking Dead'
Kinney's beloved character, Beth Greene, met her demise on the midseason finale of "The Walking Dead," AMC's popular zombie drama.
Beth died tragically at the hands of Grady Memorial Hospital leader Dawn Lerner. Her passing left such a huge hole in the fans' hearts that one of them started a petition on Change.org to bring back her character on the show, as reported by Hollywood Life. As of this moment, the petition addressed to "TWD" creator Scott Gimple has already garnered more than 40,000 signatures from fans.
"The Walking Dead" returns on February 8, according to AMC.
