I don’t know much about music, but my sole hip friend played some Broken Bells for me recently, and I liked it. Therefore, I consider the appearance of “Mad Men’s” Christina Hendricks in a Broken Bells video to be at least somewhat TV-related. Shame that there’s not some “Music Television” channel that will play it.

Both members of alt-pop superduo Broken Bells (producer Danger Mouse and singer James Mercer from the Shins) are big Mad Men fans. So when it was time to cast the beautiful android in their video for ”The Ghost Inside,” they immediately thought of the show’s Christina Hendricks. ”We assumed we would ask and that’d be it,” Mercer says. ”She’s got to be so busy, and who the hell are we? But she said yes! Turns out she’s a fan of our record.”

So what’s the plot? Hendricks plays a hard-working android who wants to retire to an outer-space resort community. The voyage brings Hendricks’ character into contact with Mercer and Danger Mouse, a.k.a. Brian Burton. On that meeting, Mercer remains mum. When it comes to her spaceship trip, he only offers, ”Things happen along the way that make it difficult.” [EW]

Ooohhh, a sexy android! I bet you can program those things to give great blowjobs.

FUN FACT: this isn’t Hendricks’s first music video…

That’s her in Everclear’s “One Hit Wonder” video from 1997 (thanks for the tip last February, Melissa). Yep, she had big cans, even back then.

And, just because this is burning a hole in my hard drive, here’s a new-ish picture of her that popped up on my Tumblr feed:
