Towards the end of the video Iggy is seen grinding away in skimpy bodysuits, one in a white design with cut-out panelling that makes her look like Lady Gaga.
As she shakes her body around with a plum fur on her shoulders and her hair pulled into a tight ponytail she is reminiscent of the Paparazzi singer.

Iggy recently told MTV that the video was inspired by an Australian movie.
She said: 'I really love 'Priscilla, Queen of the Desert,' which is an Australian film about some drag queens that go from Sydney in this bus called 'Priscilla Queen of the Desert' up to the Northern Territory, and it's about this adventure they have.'

She added: ' I really liked this film as a kid and always identified with it because it's [about] drag queens and they have to keep stopping in small rural towns and they're not accepted.'
The rapper, real name Amethyst Amelia Kelly, cleaned with her mother to save for her music career and the song tells the story of her life.
She moved to America aged 16 after telling her parents she was going on there on holiday.

In December 2011 she revealed she would release her debut studio album, called The New Classic, once she had signed a major record label deal.

Iggy is currently on tour with legendary rapper Nas and is supporting him on a string of UK dates, however, she recently embarked on a mini North American tour with Roc Nation singer-songwriter Rita Ora, on the MTV Presents The ORA Tour.
