Last week, the video for "Flashing Lights" premiered and like most things involved with Kanye caused a stir. While Kanye only made a brief cameo in the video, the most talked about figure in the controversial video was Playboy Playmate Rita G.  In an interview with MTV, the video vixen discussed the video.

"It's so funny," Rita G, the clip's star, told MTV News about the clip. "This video will go over a lot of people's heads — and it's supposed to. I think it's great that it does. Because Kanye is just on another level; he's ahead of his time, in a sense. So all the third-graders who come home from school and want to watch videos and snap their fingers and all that, they're probably gonna think, 'That video is wack, but that chick got a fat a--.' And that's fine. But people in higher positions, they're gonna see something different. They're gonna get it, people who are thinkers."

She also states that Kanye scrapped the first two versions of the video and the process of making the video. 

The finished version of "Flashing Lights" was actually the third attempt for Kanye, she said. West apparently wasn't satisfied with the first two versions. He wanted the clip to be more about fashion, sex and life, she said.

 

"He told his boy, 'Yo, I need you to call this girl called Rita G,' " the Playmate said, laughing. "I happen to know he's been a fan of mine for a while, because he mentioned something about me in an interview he did for Playboy quite some time back."

Once Kanye had his woman, Rita flew to the set and was caught off guard by how bare-bones the operation was. She said at her fitting, she saw only West and two female wardrobe stylists. West picked her outfit and accessories, and told her what he wanted.

Then when it came time to shoot, things changed ... again.

... 

"I didn't know exactly how they were gonna piece it together or how the final edit was gonna look, but all I know is Kanye was very happy, him and a whole group of other men, like, grown-ass men, standing outside in the freezing cold with five levels of clothes on shivering, me naked," G recalled.
