Then the background of the clouds shows, as Sandy serenades her solo, and Ludacris appears at distance rapping around the clouds. Then, he shows up once more with the cheerleader, on the blanket, then on the clouds again. This happens constantly as the video goes on.

The lady backs up against the shelves slowly and seductively. ^[1] In addition, the blue woman who appears to be able to fly appears in the skies.
