Newlyweds Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt may have picked the most unfortunate time to head down to Cabo in and shoot the video for Heidi's new single, "Blackout," in Mexico — considering the country is battling a swine-flu epidemic.

But leave it to Heidi and Spencer to take a bad situation and make the most of it. "We're definitely wearing the face masks everywhere we go," Spencer told Ryan Seacrest on his radio show Tuesday. "We're not playing. I'm not trying to get pig flu! We're in isolation. We're in, like, full hiding."

"We're not on our honeymoon technically yet. This is a music-video shoot we're doing this weekend," Heidi added. "The honeymoon's coming in a couple weeks."

The song, which was written by Cathy Dennis (who co-wrote katy Perry's hit "I Kissed a Girl") will be featured on Heidi's still-untitled forthcoming album. "I've never had an album," Heidi told MTV News. "This is my first album. I've wanted to do music since I could talk. I used to do plays and singing and voice lessons and practice Britney routines when I was, like, 12. This is the biggest dream of my life."

Heidi also worked with Dennis on "Look How I'm Doin'," and she describes the songwriter as a "genius." "I just love making fun music, like Lil Wayne," she said. "He'll do a rock song, and then he'll do a rap song. I get to choose my own songs. It's something I love doing. I'm having so much fun doing it, and it's not too much pressure. It's more on my own."
