Betty Boo has released intergalactic banger Barbarella as the latest single from her new album ‘Rip Up The Rulebook’.

The track serves as the opening song on the ’90s hip-hop star’s fourth studio album, which arrived over the summer, and was hailed by RETROPOP as “the perfect pop song that wouldn’t sound out of place on a Kylie record and references the sci-fi icon that Boo channeled in the Where Are You Baby? video.”

Beam me to another planet! 🪐✨Up into space! 🚀#BettyBoo’s brand-new rework of Barbarella lands Friday 13th December!
