Link to Launch Yahoo good quality vid of Ashlee's "Outta My Head" (they may make you register/sign in).

Silly, lots of fun, this needs to be a hit.

Here's the not so high-quality YouTube rip:

According to an MTV news story (bold emphasis added by me):

In the video, Ashlee hears voices — though they aren't in her head; they're the voices of her family, record executives, fans, haters and the media. The opinion overload is driving her crazy, so, according to the video's treatment, she seeks counseling. But her therapist, played by the song's producer, Timbaland, hasn't mastered the art of listening. He interrupts her in a strange drone that makes him sound like the teacher from Charlie Brown cartoons.

In other words, the person who wrote the piece hadn't been allowed to see the actual video, so didn't realize that it lacked Timbo. (My speculation is that Timbo couldn't get permission from his studio to appear. So the vidmaker used Freud instead, whose agent was much more cooperative.)

Link?

"It's probably the weirdest video I've seen of hers," her boyfriend Pete Wentz

"It's like a Salvador Dalí painting meets 'Being John Malkovich.'"

Wow. Even weirder than that vid where they dance in a laundromat.

Or maybe there's a longer version of the vid with intro, and we have yet to see it. The video's TRL premiere is tomorrow. I think the song's hope for commercial success in the U.S. is dependent on a strong response from TRL voters. Got only thirteen spins on U.S. radio in the last week, ten of them on a station in Phoenix.
