Rather than portraying more stereotypical images of tied up women -- like a true feminist she decided to reverse the stereotypical image roles and decided to do all the stalking and kidnapping herself. She called up her strapping actor friend Geronimo Frias who she met while working as prop master on a feature film called Obamaland, and also rounded up her art department pals Zackery Irick and Kira Bursky who without hesitation drove up from the Carolinas for the adventure of working on this this video.

Rosie also used her infamous bra-sterpieces innovations such as her Juicer Bra which have been talked about in dozens of interviews including a plug on the Tonight Show by Heidi Klum.
