[edit] History

Although not released as an official single, it has been used on numerous advertisements and television shows,[citation needed] including a season one episode of Ugly Betty. Notably, a sample of the song with slightly altered lyrics is used in a campaign promoting the recently created CW Television Network. It was released as the album's sixth single in Australia, New Zealand and Brazil. It was the second most added song to Australian radio, in its first week of release.[1][not in citation given] A sample of The Temptations' song "Get Ready" is heard on the track. The song was also used in the Motorola advertisement which also featured Fergie.[2] The song was also featured on season 3 of So You Think You Can Dance, where Cameron Blink and Lacey Schwimmer danced a hip-hop routine to the song, choreographed by Dan Karaty.
