It was directed by Adam Shaheen and Chris Morris and took a crew of eight artists 17 days to complete.
“I’ll be right here waiting / For my pants to start vibrating,” Bell sings.
In the song, the 34-year-old actress sings about texts, emojis, Snapchats, tweets and Facebook messages.
“I don’t care if you spell things right / I just want to hear from you tonight / Stroke those keys with your delicate touch / And type those little words that mean so much.”
The song debuted Nov. 17 with a lyric video that has been viewed more than 3.2 million times.
Bell voiced Anna in the blockbuster Frozen, in which she sang songs including “Do You Want to Build a Snowman.”
