"My Love Is Like...Wo" is an R&Bpop song written by Missy Elliott, Charles Bereal, and Kenneth Bereal for American singer-songwriter Mýa's third studio album, Moodring (2003). Released as the album's lead single in June 2003, the Elliott-produced track became one of Mýa's biggest hits, reaching number thirteen on the Billboard Hot 100.

[edit] Music video

The single's music video was released in May 2003, directed by Paul Hunter, is a single video only showcasing Mýa. It features rapid and/or instant costume changes that mostly occur without the changing of a scene. The dancing in the video was choreographed by Travis Payne. An edited version excludes a few scenes during the striptease performance at the end of the video, such as the one in which Mýa pulls out of her swimsuit what seems to be a motel key, and also censors the word "ass" in the chorus.

The video received nominations for Best Dance Video and Best Choreography at the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards.
