[...] Being the producer and the artist you'd think it would be really stressful, but for some reason everything went so smoothly. All my close friends were in the video; they're my best girl friends. I had a vision; I love the Marie Antoinette feeling and the girly, decadent kind of feeling in the video...the fantasy of it all." The music video premiered at Radar Online.
