^ only the song was used, Rebecca or Nokko didn't appear in the ads. As for the model, that's Nishimura Tomomi!!
Her live performances:
^ this was probably in "The Best Ten" that had their own ranking system different from Oricon chart, which this song was ranked #7. They must performed right after Onyanko girls because there's those cats on the stage.

Song interpretation:
The girl character is a no-name artist struggling to make it big in entertainment. It starts with the scene in her bedroom with the girl practices her dance drills in front of the mirror with the guy's there watching her. From dance practice, they switches into another "intense physical activity" as sweet as raspberry. Then we go to the flashback when they first met. Not only this guy taugh her some "naughty games", he also taught her to dream and gave her courage. She would practice her dance in a small back alley, but with him by her side, she could see herself perform on a grand stage, with the sunset turned into her glamorous golden dress.
