The original music video was filmed at the
Key Club in
Los Angeles, which was made to look like a strip club. An open casting call (documented in a video on the band's site called "Behind the Bitch") was held in October 2005, recruiting unpaid dancers and strippers for the low-budget video, which was directed by Ulf Buddensieck. There are two versions of the video: an "explicit" version featuring female nudity (which was made available on the band's website) and a "clean" version that was aired on
Fuse TV. The "clean" version, however, was
not approved by
MTV, who demanded more than 80 cuts, according to the July 13, 2006, issue of
Rolling Stone. In October 2006, a new concept video was created for "Crazy Bitch" and the band's then-single "
Next 2 You".
Controversy On September 11, 2006, a lawsuit was filed that alleges that a minor was given alcohol to drink and allegedly was filmed exposing her breasts, kissing another female and writhing against a pole while Buckcherry performed the song at the video shoot, which was later to be proven false. According to the lawsuit, the music video was posted on the band's website and distributed widely online, as was a "behind the scenes" program that referred to the girl's first name, Skip Miller of law firm Miller Barondess said, "We had a guy at the door checking IDs, and to get in, this girl had to show a fake identification showing she was over 18. There were signs telling minors to stay out. This woman filled out a release form with false information. And once it was determined this woman was underage, the video was removed." and removed the original from circulation, hiring an outside group to strip it from websites that had posted it illegally. ==Reception==
