The video for the single featured actress/model Patricia Kotero, better known as Apollonia, as the female doing the "shakin". She would later go on to co-star in the film Purple Rain.

The song's video was featured on an episode of [{Beavis and Butthead}}. The duo enjoyed the video, particularly Money's faces while watching the model dance around.
