Video musik

Video musik "If I Were a Boy" disutradarai oleh sutradara Inggris, Jake Nava, yang telah bekerja sama dengan Beyoncé sebelumnya pada video musik Beyoncé sebelumnya. Video ini diawali oleh omongan empat mata antara Beyoncé dengan suaminya dan mengatakan "intimacy", "honesty", "commitment". Selanjutnya lagu dimulai dengan suaminya menyiapkan sarapan dan Beyoncé segera pergi bekerja menjadi polisi, seperti peran yang dibalik. Ternyata Beyoncé menjalin hubungan dekat dengan teman kerjanya, dan akhirnya suaminya melihat Beyoncé bersama teman kerjanya tersebut menari bersama. Musik berhenti sebentar, menunjukkan Beyoncé dan suaminya berargumentasi. Setelah itu musik dilanjutkan lagi dan memperlihatkan suami Beyoncé bekerja menjadi polisi, seperti pasangan biasa.
