Christina Aguilera’s new video “Not Myself Tonight” came out last week, and to say it was ridiculous would be an understatement. It was a constant moving cliche of overdone music video moments meant to be shocking. Taken together it was like a parody of an actual video. There was plenty of S&M, a girl on girl kiss, Christina on all fours crawling like a cat, and brandishing a whip. Several scenes looked like complete rip offs from Madonna videos, primarily “Express Yourself” with Madonna strutting on a smoky stage in a suit with a monocle and then licking from the cat bowl and pouring it down her back. In fact Aguilera’s video had all of these things. (The monocle part is around 1:45 in the video above. Aguilera pours chocolate down her back at 2:50. Compare that to the monocle part in Express Yourself at 2:00 in, and Madonna pouring milk down her back at 3:45.) There were also group scenes toward the end straight from Paula Abdul’s “Cold Hearted Snake” Video and I’m sure there’s much more I’m missing.
Anyway, while Aguilera should be apologizing for how derivative her video was she’s instead defending how sexy it was, as if it was as shocking and groundbreaking as she intended it to be.
Christina Aguilera’s brand-new “Not Myself Tonight” video is certainly jaw-dropping, a three-minute run of barely-there outfits, extended S&M-inspired sequences and a whole lot of guy-on-girl groping.
But in an interview with “Access Hollywood,” Aguilera defended the clip, saying that it shows off her wild side, which she’s not shying away from just because she’s a mother.
“Mama still has to be me,” she said. “I never claimed to be a cookie-cutter soccer mom. That’s all good for some people. Not for me.”
Aguilera ? who, in previous interviews, has cited her two-year-old son, Max, as an inspiration for the songs on her upcoming Bionic album ? said that she doesn’t think the video is inappropriate, and added that just because she’s a mother, it doesn’t mean that she’s not also an artist, one who deals honestly and frankly with the subject of sexuality.
“[Max] is going to grow up in a household where he knows mommy expresses herself artistically and some of that will have to reflect itself sexually too, at times,” she said. “He’s going to learn to respect the fact that women are allowed to express themselves and not feel shameful about their bodies or their sexuality.”
She added that while Max is already a fan of the songs on Bionic (which is due June 4), he’s not shy about expressing his allegiance to another of his mother’s pop contemporaries.
“He’s really into Rihanna,” Aguilera said. “And he does say ‘Put in mama’s song! Put in mama’s song!’ And then he goes, ‘Go cazy! Go cazy!’ It’s so cute.”

I read a very good critique of this video on EW.com. They’re basically saying that Aguilera is desperate, derivative of both Madonna and Lady Gaga, and completely lacking in originality. As for the song, it doesn’t really stand out but it’s not bad I guess. It’s definitely not sticking in my head like “Express Yourself.”
The worst part about Xtina?s video, beyond the rather unabashed unoriginality of it, is the sad stink of I?ve-been-gone-forever-had-a-baby-and-now-want-to-be-relevant-again desperation. Cue: the girl-on-girl makeout sessions! Text messaging! Fire balls! When watching, there?s wasn?t a moment where I didn?t feel like Aguilera was clawing for relevancy, in a crazy, far beyond, post-Aguilera world. True story: Aguilera has been gone for a long time. There?s a desperate need, sort of like when she blipped back for two seconds with ?Keeps Gettin? Better? a couple years ago, for her to resuscitate her look and build it in the image of what?s relevant now. But maybe she should have gone in a totally different direction to avoid comparisons? Given us something totally different? The thing about Aguilera is that she?s used to zig when everyone else was zagging. And now, it seems like she decided to zag along with everyone else.

So we know who Christina is not, but who is she exactly? She was Dirrrty, she was vampy, and now she’s some kind of wacky empowered dominatrix, just like Madonna and Lady Gaga. I agree, she should go for something different. And she should shut up about how she’s not a soccer mom. There are plenty of us, and we make purchasing decisions for our families and teens.

Gearing up to reclaim the top spot on the music charts, Christina Aguilera is talking about her new music video for her single ?Not Myself Tonight.?
The ?Ain?t No Other Man? songstress? new clip contains all kinds of sexually-charged action including skimpy outfits and plenty of groping.
And though she?s also the loving mother of her son Max, Christina says she still needs to be herself when it comes to being creative.
"[Max] is going to grow up in a household where he knows mommy expresses herself artistically and some of that will have to reflect itself sexually too, at times. He's going to learn to respect the fact that women are allowed to express themselves and not feel shameful about their bodies or their sexuality."

Enjoying quality family time over the weekend, Christina Aguilera and her husband Jordan were spotted shopping in Hollywood with their son Max on Saturday (May 1).
The "Not Myself Tonight" singer and her two main men made their was over to the Blackman Cruz to check out the shop's artwork offerings.
Previously talking about her love of art - especially nude paintings and sculptures - Miss Aguilera told People magazine, ?We?re big art collectors so there?s lots of female nudes around the house.?
As for having a young son around the risque home decor, Christina tells, ?It?s something to be respected and seen as a thing of beauty. I think it?s only weird whenever you shame it and raise your child to look at it in a weird light.?

The video for Christina Aguilera’s new single “Not Myself Tonight” is scheduled to hit the interwebs at 12:01 this morning, but you can have a little preview of it here. The Daily Mail says
The 29-year-old singer dons a red bra and knickers set as she poses provocatively in front of a fireplace, before wearing an outfit made entirely made of chains with just pointed pasties to maintain her decency.
She also appears to have a ball gag in her mouth in the clearly S&M inspired video.
In another shot, Christina wears a revealing cut-out swimsuit while bending her body into sexy poses.
What an apropos title! Clearly, she’s not herself tonight. She appears to be Madonna circa 1995 and Lady Gaga six months ago. I guess the title “Trite and Uninspired” just didn’t resonate with the big guns at Sony.
Sonya’s in tomorrow, so I’ll see you snarky bastards on Monday!

Fully engaged in work endeavors, Christina Aguilera paid a visit to the Millennium Dance Complex in North Hollywood, California on Thursday night (April 1).
Grasping a cup of coffee and her Chanel handbag, the "Genie In a Bottle" babe looked great with a new cropped bob hair-do and red lipstick with matching heels as she finished up a three hour dance rehearsal session.
The sighting comes just as Miss Aguilera has released her new single "Not Myself Tonight," of which she recently told MTV News, "I didn't write it, actually. I really make sure that I write all my material because it's really important that I feel it, but that song kind of showed up at my doorstep."
Continuing on about the track, Christina tells, "I was feeling like going back into the studio and expressing what I'm feeling, and what I've learned. So I was asking for tracks, and what not, and that just kind of showed up. I was like, 'Oh my God, I have to sing this song - it's just so me'."
The song "Not Myself Tonight" is the first taste of Aguilera's much-anticipated album, "Bionic," which is set for release in June 2010.

When she isn?t tending to her busy schedule, Christina Aguilera likes to relax - by reading erotic books in the bath.
The 29-year-old explained that one of her favorite things to do is read a racy novel while unwinding in her bath. ?I love water-eroticas ? waterproof books full of erotic stories, if you will,? she said. ?You can literally get the book wet, read it in the bath.?
The singer, who has a two-year-old son Max and is married to music producer Jordan Bratman, insists that Max is the couple?s focus, but knows that she and Jordan need some one on one time publicly and in the bedroom.
?We make sure we have mommy and daddy nights out,? she said. ?Our child comes first, obviously, but there are certain things you can do. Once we know he?s in good hands, we go out late at night and have a few drinks. Then we?ll come home, dim the lights and do our thing!?

It looks like Christina Aguilera is jumping on the annoying hipster dufus bandwagon by wearing retarded sunglasses and even worse acid washed jeans. Great, we’ve lost another one. I’m going to look on the bright side, at least the jeans are tight and we can see some sort of cleavage.

Christina Aguilera seems to be getting career advice from Madonna, because she reinvents her image with every album. The photo above is from the first single off her upcoming CD ?Bionic.? Christina looks sexy, as usual, but in a classy way, evoking a vamp from Hollywood?s golden era. Christina started out as a fresh-faced Disney teen before getting down and ?Dirrty.? Now grown-up Christina is a wife and mom launching her film career in ?Burlesque,? co-starring with Cher. This clever diva is no overnight sensation!

Here’s Christina Aguilera on the set of her awful movie looking like a bored streetwalker. Yawning is not how you drum up business, sure showing off how wide you can open your mouth is pretty good, but nobody likes a sleepy prostitute. Anyhow, apparently Christina’s co-star in this scene is

I wish I could tell you that I’ve got some hot pictures of Christina Aguilera on the set of her new movie, but I don’t. Unless you have a strange fetish for chicks in oversized knit sweaters putting pieces of chewing gum in their mouths, these shots are going to be pretty
