[edit] Music video

The music video depicts Limp Bizkit performing in a big room, complete with a stage and skateboard ramps. The band members are seen in some scenes not playing any instruments and some scenes they are playing each other's instruments. Cameos include Snoop Dogg, Jonathan Davis of Korn, Dr. Dre, Eminem, Eminem's daughter Hailie, Pauly Shore, Seth Green, Flea, and Riley Hawk.

[edit] Awards

The video for the song won the MTV Video Music Award for The Best Rock Video in 2000. While Limp Bizkit accepted the award, Rage Against the Machine bassist Tim Commerford, whose video for their 2000 single "Sleep Now In The Fire" didn't win, rushed the stage and climbed a large piece of the set, nearly dismantling it.
