Music video The music video for "Don't Cha" was filmed during the week of April 11, 2005 by Paul Hunter. During an interview with MTV News, Scherzinger elaborated that the video focuses on confidence and fun. "The lyrics are: 'Don't Cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me,' But if you see the video, it's all about being who you are, having fun and being confident — and feeling hot. It's not so much about looking hot ... although looking hot is important." Scherzinger further praised Busta Rhymes for their collaboration on the set of music video, saying ""Busta Rhymes is pretty phat, man. He is so much fun. He's so humble and he just makes you feel good. When you're around him, you feel magical. [...] We are so grateful that [Busta] did it and was a part of it with us." The video begins with the Pussycat Dolls drag racing on jeeps, which one of them is a Ford Bronco in an abandoned waterway. Then, the group is seen arriving at an underground party where they do different activities such as jumping on a trampoline. The video is inter-cut with sequences of close-ups of the girls and Rhymes performing the song, while impromptu dance routines are featured on the chorus. Inspired by pole-dancing, the dance routine also includes a move called the slutdrop. The music video is credited as the origin of the slutdrop, which later became popular among contemporary female artists. Throughout the video Scherzinger is seen wearing a hoodie that emblazons the song's lyrics
