You've got to be able to laugh at yourself': Jamie Oliver stars in video for CMAT's The Jamie Oliver Petrol Station
"I needed deli, but God, I hate him, sings CMAT (AKA Ciara Mary-Alice Thompson), though it is less a weird diss track, and more about her relationship with irrational hatred in a confusing world: critic Dorian Lynskey praised it as a tragicomedy of misdirected anger."
"The first time Oliver heard it, he wondered: What have I done wrong? he told the Guardian. I couldn't really work it out. Then his phone started buzzing. Contrary to the song's lyrics about how CMAT knows she shouldn't be a bitch / The man's got kids and they wouldn't like this, Oliver's daughters and their friends all loved it."
"I've got massive respect for the creative arts and music, and I know how hard it is now more than ever, says Oliver, demonstrating his appreciation for CMAT's artistic work and willingness to collaborate on the music video project."
Jamie Oliver, famous for his 'Naked Chef' television debut 27 years ago, has evolved from a music-connected personality into a global commercial brand. Irish pop star CMAT released the song 'The Jamie Oliver Petrol Station' on her third album Euro-Country, which humorously critiques encountering Oliver's branded products at Shell petrol stations. The song explores misdirected anger in a confusing world rather than serving as a genuine insult. Oliver's daughters and their friends embraced the track, and when Oliver followed CMAT on Instagram, she proposed filming a music video together. They shot the video at Oliver's newly reopened Jamie's Italian restaurant in Leicester Square, London, demonstrating Oliver's appreciation for creative arts and music.
