14 DAY TRIAL // There has been so much talk of how Christina Aguilera may be trying to copy the current best-selling female pop artist, Lady Gaga, that she seems to have set out to prove that she still has plenty of her “Dirrty” roots to draw inspiration from. A new video teaser and promo shots from her upcoming “Not Myself Tonight” video would certainly seem to show that.
Both Christina and people working with her on her upcoming “Bionic” album have fiercely denied she was in any way inspired by Lady Gaga (in terms of both looks and sound) for the latest material. Incidentally or not, the video for her first single off the album, which is yet to arrive in full, seems to hark back to Madonna’s “Express Yourself” vid, in which she too wore cone bras and crawled on all fours towards a saucer of milk, just like a cat.
This is precisely what Christina too is doing in her own video, as the promo pic uploaded on her official site (attached to this article as well) clearly shows. Moreover, there are a few scenes in the second teaser video released that also bring to mind comparisons with the Queen of Pop in her heyday. As we also noted yesterday, Aguilera’s first teaser did the same, as she was seen singing in a tight corset in what looked like a church, in a manner comparable to Madonna in the “Like a Prayer” video.
“Check out the third exclusive photo from the ‘Not Myself Tonight’ video shoot! Are you getting excited for the premiere? It’s THIS Friday at 12:01am on VEVO.com! Not only is Christina giving fans exclusive photos of her new video ‘Not Myself Tonight’ before the premiere on Friday, she’s also giving us TWO video teasers! Check out the player to the right to watch the newest teaser,” two posts on the singer’s website, announcing the release of the promo pic and of the second teaser, read.
Below is the teaser, showing Christina Aguilera getting all feline and saucy for the upcoming “Not Myself Tonight” video. *Please be advised that some discretion is recommended.
