Britney Spears is a Valley girl and Iggy Azalea is an alien bombshell from outer space in their latest music video for "Pretty Girls." The female duo released the video on Wednesday, May 13. Spears and Azalea will perform the song live for the first time at the 2015 Billboard Music Awards on Sunday, May 17. The music video has 301 views and 66K likes on Youtube.
Spears is laying down poolside when a spaceship falls into her backyard pool in the middle of the night. Azalea, dressed in a futuristic silver space dress walks out of the pool robotically. The alien gets a makeover from head to toe in the house to get ready to go out. Spears and Azalea are dressed in 80’s fashion, with leopard print, big sunglasses, and blonde crimped hairstyles.
“It's just a lot of fun. It's a classic, girly (song) you want to scream to each other when you're getting ready," said Azalea in an interview with USA Today.
The music video is inspired by 'Clueless,' a 1995 television show about a group of rich teenagers who live in the Valley. Spears said that she got ideas for the video after watching an episode of 'Clueless' on tv and Azalea's "Fancy" music video. The video's storyline makes parodical references to ‘Earth Girls Are Easy,' a 1988 film about a group of aliens who crash land on planet Earth. Azalea and Cameron Duddy co-directed the video.
The electro-hop trap single "Pretty Girls" released on May 3. American singer Spears and Australian rapper Azalea announced their musical collaboration in Fall 2014. Spears initially asked Azalea to be featured in her new single after watching Azalea's music video for "Fancy."

Lyrics to "Pretty Girls" from Metrolyrics:
“All around the world, pretty girls. Wipe the floor with all the boys
Pour the drinks, bring the noise (It's Iggy-Iggs!) We're just so pretty!
All around the world, pretty girls. Jump the line, to the front
Do what we like, get what we want. (Where you at, Brit?)
We're just so pretty!
Hey, don't you know that it's always the same? From Australia 'round to LA
You can betcha', wherever the girls go, boys follow
We be keeping them up on their times. They can laugh, but they don't get the jokes
Just you watch, they're so predictable. Some things don't change...
The girls roll up, Windows roll down, Eyes on us, Jaws on the ground, Watch them go.
It's just so funny like bees to the honey!
Tell me, is it true that these men are from Mars? Is that why they be acting bizarre?
Every time I walk out of my house it's like, "Hey, baby!"
They don't see me rolling my eyes. They buzzing around me like flies
They got one thing on their mind. Some things don't change..
If you ask me, I'm killing them softly. I would spend time with you but that'd cost me
They pray that Iggy-Iggy give 'em one more chance.
But busy Iggy wouldn't even give 'em one more glance
See, enter in line between the beauty and a beast
Slim waist, thick cake, the whole world want a piece
Bad girl, good (ooh) would make you lose your mind
All of the boys begging Britney, hit 'em one more time”
