Synopsis

In the story of the video, Iglesias and Guerra are guest stars invited to sing at a school. The music video simply starts when the school principal presents them to the students and they begin to sing. The video alternates between the stage performance and three vignettes that exemplify falling in love: a student in class contrives to get his friend in trouble so he can move into friend's seat, which is next to his crush and allows him to pass her a "Do you like me," note; an un-athletic student is pummeled at dodgeball and then rescued by a girl who likes him and has a killer throw; and a straight-A student who contrives to get sent to the principal's office because he has a crush on her. The video has the participation of Ugly Betty actress Ana Ortiz as principal Michelle Gomez. The full music video was premiered at Vevo.com on 21 May 2010. As of September 2015, the video has been viewed more than 230 million times on YouTube.
