Music video
The music video was directed by the team of Eric Williams and Randy Marshall, known as Fat Cats, and was shot in Los Angeles in early February 2005. It premiered on MTV's Total Request Live on March 24, 2005. It spent only four days on the countdown and did not climb higher than number eight. The video also premiered on BET's 106 & Park on March 25, 2005. The concept deals with Hollywood stereotypes and celebrity culture. Even though she is surrounded by it, JoJo claims she is "not the kinda girl" to lose herself in the industry. The video's cameos range from its choreographer Laurieann Gibson of MTV's Making the Band, to producers Vincent Herbert and Da Internz. During the first half of the video, JoJo is being driven in a limousine through Silver Lake past the landmark Figure 8 wall made famous by the Elliott Smith album cover photo. The performance-based second half features JoJo getting her hair and makeup, and rehearsing on a sound stage with backup dancers. The video ends showing the down-to-earth side of JoJo. Dressed in a hooded jacket and listening to her iPod, she hitches a bus featuring an advertisement for her debut album.
