Music Video

The music video was released in March 2006. It starts with the 2 girls, one jealous of the other. When the second chorus kicks in, the girl uses her powers to hit the jealous one. They both appear in separate scenes, thanks to a pink double-screen. The lead singer is performing in a classroom, and with her band at a concert. The video ends with the girls in 2 limos. The jealous one somehow cuts into the other girl's screen, and steals something from her. She tries to get it back, but bangs her head on the side of her screen instead.
