Music Video
An accompanying music video for "Mr. Saxobeat" was filmed in Buftea, Romania by Iulian Moga on 1 November 2010.[63] The clip was uploaded onto YouTube on 14 November 2010.[64] A behind-the-scenes video was previously aired in November 2010 by Romanian television Music Channel.[65] Los 40 Principales cited the video for "Mr. Saxobeat" as one of Stan's best clips ever.[66] The video begins with scenes of police officers bringing a handcuffed Stan into a room of a police station to interrogate her along with two of her female friends. When she and her friends refuse to give the police any information, they lock them in a jail cell. Stan coaxes and successfully seduces the guard, while her friends steal his police equipment before locking him inside the cell and escaping. The group enters a dressing room where they find police outfits and disguise themselves as officers. They locate the chief's office and hold the police chief and other workers at gun point while duct-taping their mouths and hands to the chief's desk. Stan and her friends exit the office and walk inconspicuously through the front lobby and out of the building. Cut scenes show Stan dancing in her cell or her with her friends in police uniform.[
Notes
Alexandra Stan was born on June 10, 1989 in Constanta, Romania. Discovering her talent for music at an early age, as a child she took part of a lot of competitions, even the music festival 'Mamaia", where she impressed the audience with her versatile voice. In 2009 she released her debut single "Lollipop," but it was the follow-up "Mr. Saxobeat," which really ignited her career, becoming Stan's first number one single in her home country and entering the singles charts all over Europe. Romanian record producer Marcel Prodan was the man behind the desk helming this up tempo Eurodance tune. He also co-wrote the song with André Nemirschi, which finds Stan trying to attract a man whom she is in love with. This won the 2011 Romania Music Award for Best Song. The song was a massive success in Stan's home country, Romania, topping the singles chart for eight weeks. Other countries where it reached #1 include Austria, Denmark, Germany, Italy and Switzerland.
