Heidi Montag's Hot Black Out Video

It was the video Heidi Montag risked catching swine flu to shoot, so fans may well be underwhelmed by the reality star's latest offering.The Hills' star was so determined to film the clip in Mexico last month that she visited the country with her new husband Spencer Pratt at the height of pandemic fears.But without a plot line in sight and no more scenery than a pool and sandy beach, the effort almost beggars belief.

Instead of good quality production values and careful directing, the clip employs the use of a very simply strategy - a bikini and lots of flesh.In which case, her home town of LA surely would have sufficed for a location.Heidi appears to have taken tips from the Paris Hilton school of pop, lolling around in moves reminiscent of the heiress in the forgettable Stars Are Blind clip.

Spencer is believed to have filmed the video himself on a home video camera.The new single is Heidi's latest effort to jumpstart her pop career - her previous tracks, including Higher and and Fashion, were widely panned by critics.She is hoping for a warmer reception this time around after calling in Cathy Dennis, who penned Kylie Minogue's Can’t Get You Out Of My Head and Britney Spears' Toxic, to write the song.
