A scandal has been going on in the media about the new video by No Doubt, Looking Hot. A few words about the track: it is part of the band’s Push and Shove studio album, written by Tom Dumont in collaboration with Tony Kanal and Gwen Stefani. The Looking Hot music video is thematically a ‘cowboys and Indians’ work. It is said to be offensive for native Americans because it presents them in a trivialized way. No Doubt even removed the video the next day after the release and made a statement saying they didn’t mean the video to be offensive. Watch and comment if the reaction to the video was justified or overblown! The Looking Hot lyrics are also provided.

No Doubt – Looking Hot Song Words
Go ahead and look at me
‘Cause that’s what I want
Take a good look won’t you please
‘Cause that’s what I want
I know you wanna stare
You can’t help it and I don’t care
So look at me
‘Cause that’s what I want
Do you think I’m looking hot?
Do you think this hits the spot?
How is this looking on me, looking on me
Do you think I’m looking hot?
Do you think this hits the spot?
How is this looking on me, looking on me

Go ahead and stare,
And take a picture please,
If you need.
And I think that says it all.
Chasing it, I don’t know why
I think about it a lot
Better hurry, running out of time
I think about it a lot
I can’t tell anymore
I don’t know what I’m looking for
You know what I mean
I think about it a lot
Do you think I’m looking hot?
Do you think this hits the spot?
How is this looking on me, looking on me
Do you think I’m looking hot?
Do you think this hits the spot?
How is this looking on me, looking on me
Go ahead and stare,
And take a picture please,
If you need.
And I think that says it all.
Running on empty but I have had plenty
You’re complimentary, but I’m just pretending
Uniform, hide behind there, this is my diversion
Go ahead and stare I’m a ragamuffin.
Don’t feel it, so fake it
I bait it, you take it
One eye in the mirror, put on my veneer
I could have sworn, it’s a sure shot
Are you under my con,
Go ahead and stare I’m a ragamuffin.
Do you think I’m looking hot?
Do you think this hits the spot?
How is this looking on me, looking on me
Do you think I’m looking hot?
Do you think this hits the spot?
How is this looking on me, looking on me
Go ahead and stare
And take a picture please, if you need
And I think that says it all.
Do you think I’m looking hot?
Do you think I’m looking hot?
Do you think I’m looking hot?
Do you think I’m looking hot?
