Sia apologises for Elastic Heart's perceived paedophilia connotations

Australian singer-songwriter Sia has apologised to anyone who felt 'triggered' by her controversial Elastic Heart video and it's perceived pedophilia connotations. The stark video sees Hollywood actor Shia Le Boef, 28, wrestle with 12-year-old Dance Moms star Maddie Ziegler, who also starred in Sia's Chandelier video. Both are in their underwear. Sia, 39, who co-directed the five-minute film, says she had anticipated some negative reaction and that the video was intended to 'create some emotional content'.
