JAKARTA - Billy Joel and Christie Brinkley share a nostalgic moment in New York City. A fan captures the moment Brinkley danced when Joel performed the song Uptown Girl at his concert at Madison Square Garden last week.

In the video uploaded on TikTok, Brinkley looks wide smiling and dancing to the rhythm of music with a friend. The moment was even shown on the big screen on the stage, so that the whole audience could see it.

"Billy Joel wrote 'Uptown Girl' about his partner at the time, Christie Brinkley," wrote @chen in the TiktOk uploaded video.

"Tonight he (Christie Brinkley) witnessed him (Billy Joel) sing a song written about him throughout Madison Square Garden."

In the video caption, the fan also wrote, "40 years later and your ex is still smiling at you like that while singing the song he wrote about how rich and sexy you are?"

According to Elle Macpherson's supermodel, Billy Joel wrote 'Uptown Girl' in 1983 when they dated. But then the two separated, so Christie Brinkley became the star of the music video.

From the song "Uptown Girl", Joel and Brinkley started a good relationship, and decided to get married in 1985. They have a daughter, Alexa Ray Joel. However, the two decided to divorce in 1994.
