The music video for "Cater 2 U" was directed by Jake Nava. It was shot back to back with the video for "Girl" and large parts were filmed at Red Rock Canyon State Park in California. On July 5, 2005, the music video was released on MTV's official website. It is also featured on the DualDisc edition of the album "#1's" as well as on the Japanese version of the DVD "". In 2013, it was included on the album "Destiny's Child Video Anthology" which contained every music video the group had filmed during their career. An image taken from the video of "Cater 2 U" was used as the cover artwork for the DVD. The video opens with a fast instance of a sun rising in the sky and moves to the girls standing nude together. Each singer is featured in her own desert scene performing individually during her respective verse; Beyoncé is seen on a diving board next to a swimming pool, Rowland on a deserted road where she dances next to a silver car from which she had previously got out of and Williams on a sunlounger. During the chorus the group members are seen wearing fishtail evening dresses, performing a choreographed dance routine for the camera and three males who watch them from the side; the men are never filmed in the same shot as Destiny's Child. During the end, each member is seen together with one of their male partners and the video fades away showing the trio nude again as during the beginning.
