"Sexy and I Know It" is a song by American duo LMFAO from their second and final studio album, Sorry for Party Rocking. It was released as the third single from the album on September 16, 2011. The song was written by Stefan Kendal Gordy, GoonRock, Erin Beck, George M. Robertson and Kenneth Oliver, and it was produced by Party Rock. It went to number one on the Billboard Hot 100 on January 7, 2012,{{cite magazine|url=http://www.billboard.com/charts/2012-01-07/hot-100|title=Music: Top 100 Songs – Billboard Hot 100 Chart|magazine=Billboard|access-date=26 July 2016}} and remained there for two weeks.{{cite magazine|url=http://www.billboard.com/charts/2012-01-14/hot-100|title=Music: Top 100 Songs – Billboard Hot 100 Chart|magazine=Billboard|access-date=26 July 2016}}

The song became LMFAO's second number one hit on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States (after "Party Rock Anthem"), making them the first duo to have two successive number-one singles since Outkast's "Hey Ya!" (2003) and "The Way You Move" (2004).{{cite web|url=http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/464631/lmfao-brings-sexy-to-hot-100-summit |title=Latest Music News, Band, Artist, Musician & Music Video News |date=28 December 2011 |publisher=Billboard |access-date=2012-09-29}} The song also reached number one in Australia, Canada, Israel and New Zealand, and charted within the top ten in nearly every country in which it charted.

Music video

The music video for "Sexy and I Know It" was filmed in Venice, California, and uploaded on LMFAO's YouTube channel on September 16, 2011.{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyx6JDQCslE |title=LMFAO – Sexy and I Know It |publisher=YouTube |date=2011-11-12 |access-date=2012-09-29}} It features Redfoo and a group of men including Hok from Quest Crew, Shuffle Bot, Nathan Pasley and Q dancing around town in speedos in front of women. In several scenes it shows Redfoo lifting weights. Chelsea Korka, Ron Jeremy, Alexis Texas, Wilmer Valderrama, Alistair Overeem, Kali Muscle, Victor Kim, Steve Terada, Lola Blanc, Ryan Conferido, Ryan Feng of Quest Crew, Mindy Robinson, Jamie Foxx, Angelo Marconi, Darren Mabee, Darla George, and Simon Rex all have cameos in the video. The music video on YouTube has been flagged for sexual content several times since its release. The final shot of the video pays homage to the final shot of Michael Jackson's Thriller: it shows Shuffle Bot leaving with the girls while it turns its head towards the camera behind it and the image freezes.
