Laura Bell Bundy is saluting strong female leaders!
PEOPLE exclusively premieres the 39-year-old star's 1950s and '60s-inspired music video for her song "Get It Girl, You Go" featuring Shoshana Bean and Anika Noni Rose.
"This video celebrates how far women have come in the last 100 years including getting the right to vote, the right to join the workforce, the right to earn a college degree and to run for public office," Bundy tells PEOPLE of the video premiere timed to the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution on Aug. 18, 1920.
"This year we have a record number of women running for Congress! As a line from the song says: 'It's time to run the world, we're taking over this place. Welcome to the future, it was worth the wait!' I wanted to feature the women running for public office as well as the public (female) figures that support them," Bundy says.
Pitch Perfect stars Anna Camp, Brittany Snow and Chrissie Fit made cameos in addition to Samantha Bee, Cecily Strong, Ally Maki, Natalie Zea, Brianna Brown, Kalyn Miles and Carly Jibson.
Fellow singers Ingrid Michaelson and Mickey Guyton took part along with Bundy's Broadway pals including Mean Girls costars Kate Rockwell, Ashley Park, Tracy Jai Edwards, Natalie Joy Johnson and Orfeh as well as Annaleigh Ashford, Marissa Jaret Winokur, Tiffany Engen, Brooke Engen, Brittany Campbell, Mary Faber, Kamilah Martin, Eden Espinosa, Kerry Butler and Tonya Pinkins.
RuPaul's Drag Race star Willam, Renee Morrison and Shea Carter, who co-wrote the song, were also featured in the music video, along with queens Tabbi Katt, MaKena Knight, Tassandra Crush, Vega and Robyn Hearts.
Describing "Get It Girl, You Go" as a "soundtrack to the election," Bundy previously told fans, "It is the ultimate female empowerment song about women who 'do it all,' and break the glass ceiling. As women, we need to support each other and lift each other up."
Bundy's upcoming album Women of Tomorrow, which will be her first record in nearly five years since 2015's Another Piece of Me, is due out in 2021.
