"Funny enough, me and the girls were talking about this the other day," she began. 

"There's a helicopter that comes down on the water. It's getting closer and closer and closer because in the scene, we're like, 'Help us, we're lost.'"

"My wig goes taking off, flying across the dirt beach!"

Moreover, Rowland, who wore a military-style outfit for the high-energy video, admitted that she never recovered the wig after it dramatically blew off her head during the shoot.

The singer added, "I felt all this extra air and sure enough, my wig was off my head and down the beach somewhere. Somebody took that thing. It was gone."
