Lindsay Lohan was part of Duran Duran's album (2015), "Paper Gods". According to the group's keyboardist Nick Rhodes, "She asked to be part of it, texting [frontman] Simon [Le Bon], and we thought, actually, there is one spot, 'Danceophobia', where we needed someone to do a little role play for us".
Lindsay and Simon were friends for quite a long time and both of them met on "Live! With Regis and Kelly".
Then Simon recalls, "I met her in the makeup room. She said, 'It’s funny. I had a birthday party last week; it was ’80s-themed, and I dressed up as you.'"
Then both of them keep in touch after that. About the track, Simon explained, "We knew we needed something quite special for the middle of that song, but nobody really had a good idea of what to put in it".
"We talked about having a rapper do a heavy proper rap, and I said, 'Before we do that, can we get Lindsay in, because I know she’d love to be on a Duran Duran record.'"
"I think she’s got an amazing speaking voice and I think a certain sense of playfulness and fun that you really have to have to do that part."
