The video for Coldplay and Rihanna collaboration 'Princess of China' has been revealed.The clip sees the band's frontman Chris Martin duelling with ninjas and the 'We Found Love' star dressed as a "gangsta goth geisha", with the pair also engaging in some Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon-inspired sparring themselves.
The track is the fourth single taken from Coldplay's fifth studio album Mylo Xyloto, and will be released on June 4.
Coldplay and Rihanna previously performed the track live at the Grammy Awards 2012 back in February, with Martin also recently insisting that the Bajan popstar's vocal on the song is his "favourite bit" of Mylo Xyloto.
The artwork for the single was unveiled last month.

The song has grown on me over the past few weeks but the video is a bit of a disappointment. Found it a bit tedious. It looks good, expensive but with very little substance to it. In fact I find it quite lazy in places with all these cliched poses...Still the cinematography looks amazing & there are some very nice moments between Chris Martin & Rihanna. Just wished they had gone beyond copying and pasting aspcts of CT,HD classic....

Awesome song. The jury is out for now on the new ending to the song....including the 'la la la' ......but I think it might grow on me more than the original.
