Music video

The music video was directed by Jake Nava and filmed in Los Angeles, California.[1] The video opens with Iglesias and Kelis outside a busy nightclub and Iglesias enters the club first while Kelis waits on a motorbike. Once inside, Iglesias meets up with his gang at the bar and soon makes his way to the stage where he performs the song backed by a live band. Meanwhile, Kelis appears in sequences by herself or tantalizing Iglesias around various areas of the club.
