Throughout the video, these actors parody many famous popular songs, artist, and otherwise notable pop culture references. In order, the references are as follows[1]: Tom Cruise during the dance scene in Risky Business, Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit music video, AC/DC, Bob Marley, Eminem, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Sean Paul, The Beatles' performance on The Ed Sullivan Show, Justin Timberlake's Cry Me a River music video, John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever and Michael Jackson's Thriller music video. Bob Sinclar appears in the middle of the music video as a neighbor next door who comes to the house's door step to complain about the loud music being played by the boy in the house.
