Christie Brinkley watches Billy Joel sing 'Uptown Girl' Decades After Their Divorce

Christie Brinkley and Billy Joel shared a nostalgic moment in New York City.

A fan captured Christie Brinkley dancing to her ex-husband Billy Joel's iconic hit "Uptown Girl."

The TikTok video, recorded during a concert at Madison Square Garden on Friday, April 26, showed the 70-year-old model smiling brightly and dancing along with a friend, as she was displayed on a jumbo screen for the entire audience to enjoy.

Her gaze directed towards the stage, presumably at Joel, 74, as he performed.

The caption of the video emphasized the song's backstory, noting, "Billy Joel wrote 'Uptown Girl' about his then-partner Christie Brinkley," and highlighted the significance of the moment, stating, "Tonight she watched him sing the song he wrote about her to all of Madison Square Garden."

Adding to the intrigue, the caption read, "40 years later and your ex man is still grinning at you like that while he sings the song he wrote about how rich and hot you are?"

Released in 1983, "Uptown Girl" became one of Joel's most beloved hits. According to supermodel Elle Macpherson, Joel initially began writing the song while dating her. However, he ended the relationship midway through the songwriting process, and it was Brinkley who ultimately starred in the song's music video.
