Viewers will also have noted cameos from RuPaul’s Drag Race UK stars Tayce and Bimini Bon Boulash.

After thrilling fans with her comeback single, ‘Let Me Reintroduce Myself,’ music superstar Gwen Stefani quickly introduced fans to its follow-up – the Saweetie-assisted ‘Slow Clap.’

And while initial excitement around the March 11-released track suggested it would bring just the hype needed to build anticipation for her yet-titled, forthcoming fourth studio album, two months later the song is still earning…well…a slow clap from music lovers.

In an effort to help it crack into the Hot 100 for the first time, Stefani ignited a promo blitz that saw her give the tune the live treatment on the likes of ‘Late Night with Seth Meyers’ and other high profile stops (as we reported here).  Now, she’s taking fans behind the scenes of the energetic tune’s Sophie Muller-directed music video.
