official music video for "Your Body," a warning that "No men were
harmed in the making of this video" appears. It's necessary
information, since the Melina Matsoukas-directed clip for the new
single, which premiered on Friday (Sept. 28), features the pop star
seducing and slaughtering a handful of men who only want to love her
body. Download
Seemingly inspired by the cartoonish
violence on her TV screen, the curvaceous Aguilera steps outside of
her trailer in the video to find her first victim -- a dude with a
car that she blows up when she tires of his good looks. Next is a
billiards player who makes the mistake of following Xtina into a
public restroom; soon, he's unconscious on the toilet, covered in a
light blue goo that the pop star is naughtily wiping off her cheek.Billboard
Another
standout of the video is, of course, Aguilera's wardrobe selection,
highlighted by a curve-hugging black dress, low-cut merican flag
shirt, jean vest covered in her blonde dreadlocks and long-sleeved
white tee that reads "F*ck the Paparazzi." By the end of the video,
when Aguilera whacks her final victim with a bat, the glitter that
the guy's body turns into sprinkles seamlessly into her hot-pink
wig.
Produced by Max Martin and Shellback, "Your
Body" debuted at No. 34 on this week's Hot 100 after hitting the Web
last week. The single previews Aguilera's fifth studio album,
"Lotus," an album that the singer has called a "rebirth" and is due
out Nov. 13 on RCA Records.
