Duffy Makes First Public Appearance in Years in TikTok ‘Mercy’ Remix Video
Duffy made her first public appearance in more than five years when she made a brief cameo in a TikTok 'Mercy' remix teaser.
The Grammy winner took her latest tentative step back into the spotlight this week when she made a brief cameo in a TikTok video posted by e.motion to promote an EDM remix of her signature 2008 hit “Mercy.” The clip opens with what looks like contemporary footage of the 40-year-old belter born Aimée Anne Duffy in which she lip synchs the iconic chorus, “You got me begging you for mercy,” along to the revved-up version of the tune and gives the camera a sly wink. In it, she answered fans questions about where she’d been by explaining that she went into hiding after an incident in which she said she’d been drugged at a restaurant on her birthday and flown to a foreign country where she was held hostage in a hotel room for several weeks and sexually assaulted by unnamed perpetrators.
