[edit] Music video

The video for the song was shot in 2003. It features Cantrell walking through a city with her friends in the background and driving a Mercedes. In the video, she vandalizes her ex-boyfriend's car and spray paint it, along with some of her girlfriends. The ex-boyfriend, who comes out of his house at the end of the video and notices the girls painting "pig" on his car, was believed to be Simon Webbe (from the British boy band "Blue"). In actuality, it was her boyfriend at the time Tony De Nero.
