Music video

I like to be sexy 'cause I'm a woman now, but I still want to be a good role model." [5] Rexha later filmed another version for the song in a desert setting. [6] The music video directed by Dave Meyers debuted on January 6, 2017 on Rexha's YouTube account and has since reached over 300 million views.
