Music video

The music video premiered on TRL on September 4, 2008. The music video was directed by Benny Boom. [ [http://a231.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/107/l_5d2e985d1df98a299f2f27fd2ce46356.jpg] ] The video takes place at Jet Nightclub at The Mirage in Las Vegas, NV. [ [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kY4W1b8WurU] ]

The video begins with a girl arriving in a taxi cab alone. She meets with her friend in front of the Jet Club and they go in together. Inside, the girl, throughout the video, encounters each of the five members of New Kids on the Block. All of them innocently flirt with her. Each time, the girl is very charmed and/or a bit bewildered (due to in some instances, that one or two of the members are turning up in unexpected places whereever she is at). This could also signify the theme of the song meaning that despite that she has no boyfriend, she does not have to be alone in order to enjoy herself. The band and Ne-Yo are seen hanging out together with some girls in the VIP.

The video also features Ne-Yo and New Kids on the Block performing seperately, in front of a backdrop.
