Beyoncé recently released her first music video for “If I Were A Boy”, which is the first single off of the upcoming third album titled I Am…, which is expected to drop on November 18th.
“It’s kind of like ‘Freaky Friday’,” Beyonce tells Billboard of the concept behind the “If I Were a Boy” clip, where she plays a police officer. “In the beginning of the video, my husband makes me breakfast and he’s excited about it, and I kind of don’t have time to eat. As a police officer, I have a male partner and the video goes through our days. My husband’s at work and has attractive girls flirting with him but he declines their advances. I have a guy flirting with me, and I flirt back.”
The video was directed by Jake Nava, whom previously directed her video “Crazy in Love”.
