A music video was released on YouTube on 15 September 2011. However, the Russian version of the song was released instead of the English version, although the latter was the official single release. The music video features Elena, Anastasia and Olga driving through Russian streets, through a live-camera-shot based film. It received some censorship, as it features Olga's wearing and Elena showing her underwear, even if it is pixilated in the first place. It is currently Russia's most viewed music video to date,having over 20 million views on YouTube. The video has at times been criticized because of the girls' actions and the presence of condomsswearing and Olga's careless driving.
