"Dead Girl Superstar" is a promotional single off Rob Zombie's second album The Sinister Urge. The song is considered by Rob to be a sequel to "Living Dead Girl" off his previous album Hellbilly Deluxe. It was also featured on the "Kerrang, Vol. 3" compilation album in 2002. The song's guitar solo is played by Kerry King of the Slayer fame. It is one of the few songs on the album to contain a solo. The song contains audio samples from the 1974 Isaac Hayes film Truck Turner. The song also appears in the game Warzone 2100.
An animated music video of the song was made and can be found on Rob's website.
