The music video for "If I Were a Boy", directed by Jake Nava, was shot in black and white and portrays Knowles as an NYPD officer. It begins with Knowles and her husband reciting words such as "intimacy", "honesty", and "commitment". The song starts as her husband prepares breakfast and Knowles takes off. It later shows Knowles on patrol with her male partner. Knowles and her male partner form a close relationship throughout the song. Her husband is unaware and is singled out since she constantly ignores his calls while with her male partner. She is then shown at a party dancing with her male partner, when she sees her husband watching them. She and her husband return home and confront each other. The characters switch lines and it is revealed that Knowles had been acting out her husband's day and how he mistreats her and never takes her call. The video ends with the couple now acting out their real roles in life.
