]]>This year’s host David Tennant took a moment to reflect on the viral fame that “Murder on the Dancefloor” experienced after being featured in Saltburn. The film’s Rosamund Pike assisted him as he welcomed Ellis-Bextor on stage, saying they couldn’t pass up the opportunity to bring the very special performance of this viral hit to the BAFTAs.
Ellis-Bextor hit the stage with her signature glittery green eyeshadow, paying homage to the original “Murder on the Dancefloor” music video from 2001. She was joined by a group of backup dancers, who helped her make the performance even more memorable.
“Murder on the Dancefloor” experienced a true renaissance after being featured in Emerald Fennell’s dark comedy Saltburn, which was in the running for five BAFTA Film Awards. The success of this film helped it return to the UK Singles Chart at No. 2 and become Ellis-Bextor’s first song to ever chart on the US Billboard Hot 100.

Saltburn is coming into this year’s BAFTAs with five nominations, and the mastermind behind this award show decided to invite Ellis-Bextor to hit the iconic Royal Festival Hall stage in London on February 18.
“Murder on the Dancefloor” catapulted Ellis-Bextor back to stardom after being featured in Saltburn. It became her first song to enter the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, re-peaked at No. 2 in the UK, and she even decided to re-release it on vinyl following its newfound success.
Ellis-Bextor said it feels amazing to see people around the world discover this song, over two decades after its initial release in 2001.
“I feel like it’s kind of starting to turn into something where it might mean I go places I haven’t been for a while… Mainly, I think it’s just a really good example of what I’ve always loved about what I do, which is that you have to be open to the unexpected,” she told Forbes.
