The music video for the song was directed by Hype Williams and was filmed in downtown Los Angeles.[28] Filming of the video involved a partial closure of the 2nd Street Tunnel as well as part of downtown Los Angeles spread out over a 48-hour period.[29] Kesha explained the idea behind the video as well as the experience during an interview with MTV News; she said that the video was different from her other videos, noting that it was going to show a sexier side of herself. She elaborated, "This video is a little bit 'sexy time'. [For] this video, I kinda thought, 'I should be blowing things up, So we closed down downtown Los Angeles and, I mean, I'm not going to give away all of it, but I do blow some stuff up."[30]
The music video for "We R Who We R" is presented as an underground party.[31] The video starts off with futuristic flashing lights. Kesha, seen in a ponytail wearing gray and black makeup, chains, ripped stockings, and a sparkly one-piece leotard made of shards of broken glass, walks through the 2nd Street Tunnel with fellow partygoers.[32][33] The scene features drag races and explosions in the background.[31][29] Close-up shots of Kesha show her wearing studs in her eyebrows and her glittery eye makeup. As cars zoom by, the video transitions into a new location at a different party. Midway through the party Kesha changes outfits to an American-flag top and pink hot pants. As the song's hook kicks in, Kesha is seen standing on the edge of a building; the music stops and Kesha stage jumps backwards off of the building's rooftop.[31] She is caught by the partygoers beneath her and the music resumes. The final scenes show Kesha dancing among fellow partygoers on a rooftop and smiling while singing "We R Who We R".[31]
Jocelyn Vena from MTV News noted that the video makes a departure from Kesha's previous music videos, in which humor is usually present; she wrote the video shows a "darker and sexier" side of the songstress.[31] Tanner Stransky from Entertainment Weekly was positive in his review of the video.[34] Stransky commented on the songs lyrical inspiration, noting the video doesn't follow the same message, saying "it doesn't so much inspire self esteem as much as it inspires just a plain ol', trashy, Ke$ha-ed out good time. Code word: party!".[34] The review ends with a quote from the song: "There’s not much to it. But do we still love it? In a direct quote from Ke$ha's "We R Who We R," "yes, of course we does!".[34]
