“I’m pretty goofy all the time, and I definitely wanted to do a video that showed my personality,” she explained. “My costar was such a good sport, and we were laughing the entire time. There are so many songs where guys talk about a lonely girl, but I haven’t heard too many where a girl talks about a lonely guy, so I kind of wanted to flip the script. The leaf blower scene was hilarious. I think the poor guy swallowed a few of the rose petals.”
While the end of the video reveals her “true love” is an adorable puppy, she says she is proud to have approached the topic of love from a different perspective.
