Starr is featured on the CGI reboot special of the classic Cartoon Network superteam. The all new special airs this Monday, January 20, and will feature a brand new music video from the legendary rockstar.
The city of Townsville is under attack once again and it is up to the Powerpuff Girls to save the day. Everyone’s favorite child-heroes are back together for a brand new special. The CGI animated feature, “Dance Pantsed,” airs this Monday on Cartoon Network.
Cartoon Network released an official press statement explains the plot of the episode:
“In 'Dance Pantsed,' why is Mojo Jojo kidnapping a mathematician, an opera singer and a badger? To steal Chemical X, of course, and to finally take over Townsville. But when the Powerpuff Girls thwart his plan, he invents an evil video game called ‘Dance Pants R-EVILution’ to control their minds and bodies to fulfill his evil plot! The Professor must visit his dark dancing past to save his girls so they can save all of Townsville!”
Cartoon Network will also air a mini-marathon of classic Powerpuff Girls episodes prior to the premiere. The press release went on to add:
“Leading-up to the premiere of ‘Dance Pantsed,’ Cartoon Network is showcasing ten classic episodes of The Powerpuff Girls for a five-hour marathon on Sunday, January 19 beginning at 12 p.m. (ET/PT).”
The special stars Beatles legend Ringo Starr. Starr even released a special animated music video for his song titled, “Wish I Was A Powerpuff Girl,” that features a cartoon version of the legend in drag.
Ringo Starr will be performing at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards, next Sunday night, January 26, on CBS. The other surviving Beatle, Paul McCartney, will also perform at the event.
