"Fight for This Love"	2009	Cheryl Cole	Ray Kay[4]	"The video starts off with the songstress looking in a simple white vest, make-up done and sporting biker gloves giving her that edge. Accompanied with an entourage of all female dancers dressed in black.[5] Cole then breaks out into choreographed dance routines. Various scenes throughout the video include Cole rocking silk leopard print bottoms, an all black outfit with silver sparks coming out from both sides of her top,[5] where she is, standing in what would appear to be her maths workbook, in which she has been doodling and writing poems rather than doing her maths. She is wearing what appears to be a corset with two miniature beds of nails strapped to the side and [later] a soldier themed outfit with the famous red Balmain jacket in which she salutes a full eight times during the video."[5][6]

Not being able to get enough of hunky dancers, after more strutting down the street in her leopard print heels, Cheryl breaks out a routine in front of a flashing background with the help of two shirtless blokes. As the sun sets, Cole walks down a dark street - with yet more dancing - before going back into a café and chatting up a group of soldiers, making sure she nabs a slurp of milkshake on the way.[24]
