Music video

A fashion show is happening but the audience is very bored. Backstage, the fashion director is helping one of the women in the show with her outfit. They both smell something, and Crazy Loop comes in wearing a pizza delivery outfit, delivering a pizza. The woman tries to get a taste, but the fashion director forbids her and tries the pizza himself. However, the director dislikes it and spits it in the trash.

Several women in the show head for the runway, including the director who forbids Crazy Loop to enter. With no one around, Crazy Loop tries on a suit and a pair of sunglasses, walks to the runway and dances in front of the women in the show. The bored audience members then wake up and stare at him. The director is angry at Crazy Loop and glares at him, even trying to get a woman to kick Crazy Loop out of the show (which is unsuccessful). A VIP comes and watches Crazy Loop. At first it appears like he is going to give a thumbs down, causing the director to panic; however, the VIP ends up giving the thumbs up. The fashion show turns crazy (like Crazy Loop), and all the people in the show (including the director) try on crazy outfits (one involving the pizza Crazy Loop delivered). The audience eats the pizza the director earlier rejected. The director then offers Crazy Loop a popcorn basket, and Crazy Loop throws it in the air. With pizza being eaten, popcorn in the air, and guests happy and content, the fashion show is featured on the cover of magazines as a huge success.[1]

Drag queen Tammie Brown, known for participating in RuPaul's Drag Race, makes a cameo appearance in the video.
