La Roux 'didn't expect famous fans'

Elly Jackson has admitted that she was surprised to hear that the group has earned several celebrity fans.

The singer revealed that she found it "weird" to discover that hit single 'Bulletproof' had resonated with so many people around the world, including stars such as Kim Kardashian and Jersey Shore's Snooki.

"A few months ago, someone sent me a tweet that Kim Kardashian - and I only just found out who the Kardashians were - and they said she just tweeted, 'This time I'll be bulletproof'," she told MTV News.

"And she's got this bullet bracelet on, and they said she tweeted that, and I was like, 'Now that's really weird'."

She added: "The fact that it reaches people like that - which, when we were writing it in a living room in South London, we didn't think it'd be reaching multimillionaires in LA - it doesn't compute with me. So it is what it is. It has a universal quality."
