“It can happen at any time, for any reason,” she tweeted. “The idea for the ‘Opalite’ music video crash landed into my imagination when I was doing promo for The Life of a Showgirl. I was a guest on one of my favorite shows, @TheGNShow.

They even serve wine. Anyway. I remember thinking I got ridiculously lucky with the group I was paired with.”
