Jump (Madonna Song) - Music Video

Music Video

While finishing her Confessions Tour in Japan, Madonna took time out from her schedule to shoot the video for "Jump". The shoot took place in many outdoor locations throughout Tokyo, as well as a sound stage. Madonna and hair stylist Andy LeCompte decided to take her look to a whole new level and try using a platinum blonde bob wig for the video. The wig was worn by Madonna in the last two nights of the Confessions Tour. The bob look was complimented. Critics called it "her sleekest, jauntiest reinvention to date." Along with the bob look, Madonna wore a black leather garment, which Entertainment Weekly commented that it accentuated her "toned body". The video featured the physical discipline parkour, where artist Sebastian Foucan performed the routines around the buildings of Tokyo.

The video begins showing the skyline of Tokyo and the parkour artists standing on rooftops. As the spoken introduction starts, Madonna is shown in her bob wig dancing in front of a number of neon signs. The signs contain the words Madonna and Jump written in Japanese. The song continues with the dancers jumping from the buildings and running through the lanes of the city. Madonna dances to the music and swivels around a metallic rod placed in front of her. Before the final chorus, the dancers cease their parkour routines and stand on a lamppost. As the chorus starts, Foucan is joined by parkour traceur Levi Meeuwenberg and Exo as they continue their routine around the buildings. The video ends with Madonna stretching her arm and a shot of the Tokyo evening-sky.
