Cos he doesn't look a thing like Jesus? Ghostface spurned by Killers
TheBoyDeadly by TheBoyDeadly January 5th, 2007

Ghostface Killah is licking his wounds after being ditched on by The Killers.

Brandon Flowers' mob were apparently unwilling to work with the Wu-Tang man, though rumours abound that a collaboration with Bruce Springsteen is imminent.

Speaking to the music publication Spin, the rapper was heard to lament: "I wanted to do a song with them. I'm Ghostface Killah and they're the Killers. We were going to do a mash-up with my vocals over their music, and it was going to be the Killers meet the Killah. But they didn't want to do it. I was disappointed."

So are we Killah, so are we. Moving on quickly, Ghostface went on to claim he'd like to work with ex-Arctic Monkey Andy Nicholson.

After hearing 'I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor' he remarked: "That is an excellent bass line. Who plays bass on this record? I've gotta get him on my next record!"
