Music Video
Two music videos were made for the song. One was made at the Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami Beach, in which Estefan plays a version of herself, trying to attract the attention of a Speedo-clad Hollywood star at the resort, whilst herself being pursued by a nerdy-looking fan. The other, directed by D.J. Webster, featured Estefan dancing with anthropomorphized alley cats,[led by choreographer Russell Clark, in the style of the musical Cats
