In Lady Gaga’s new music for video for “Telephone,” Quentin Tarantino fans will be excited to see one of his famed movie props: the Pussy Wagon from Kill Bill: Volume 1.
Those who have seen Kill Bill will remember this bright yellow Chevrolet Silverado SS truck from the scene when the Bride escapes from the hospital, stealing a set of keys off an orderly named Buck, who likes to…you know. It is then within this car that she spends hours regaining use of her limbs, before setting of to kill the members of the Deadly Vipers who put her in the hospital in the first place.
In the Gaga video, both the car and its famed keyring can be seen in the Thelma & Louise-themed sections that she shares with Beyonce. The earlier part of the video is a jail sequence that supposedly picks up where “Paparazzi” left off; she’s in jail for killing her boyfriend. She keeps getting phone calls, but refuses to take any until she gets the call (from Beyonce) she wants. Once Gaga is released from prison, the car scenes begin.
According to Gaga, use of the iconic truck was Tarantino’s idea. “We were having lunch one day in Los Angeles and I was telling him about my concept for the video and he said, ‘You gotta use the Pussy Wagon!’,” she told E! News.
