Christina Aguilera Not Herself as Lesbian in New Video

by Boo Jarchow | Article Date: 04/29/2010 4:30 PM

Christina Aguilera has dropped hints of just what's in her bag of tricks for her next music video "Not Myself Tonight," off her her album BIONIC. Throughout this week, Aguilera has released photos to build anticipation for the "surprises" her video holds. So far, the only thing revealed with these photos is that being platinum blonde does not make you Lady Gaga or Madonna.

First, let's look at what Aguilera released earlier this week...

On Monday, the photo was this:

According to Allie Is Wired, Aguilera was actually questioned last week about her thoughts on being compared to Lady Gaga, and she responded: “It just comes with the territory. That, in particular, is not even worth wasting the breath to comment on. I’ve been around for over a decade and I think my work speaks for myself. [When I was younger] I would have engaged, been a little upset [about the comparisons]. There’s a bigger picture out there. I’ve got my son, my family, my work.”

The bigger picture might just be her outfits looking too familiar - possibly due to the fact that Gaga rocked it last August.

Christina Ag...Can Hold Her Own.
I think Christina can hold her own without trying to imitate Gaga or anyone else. She has always pushed the envolope when it came to her videos....and as for the similarities in her videos and some other people videos, I think is because alot of these artist use the same directors and choreographers that continue to take a little from alot of other popular videos until they pretty much all start to look the same anyway. People have always tried to compare Christina to someone else since she first came out...I remember when she was know as the "BadGirl" of pop when it was just her and Brittney a few years ago. People had alot to say about her video "Dirty" because of the shower scene with her and a bunch of her female dancers....so this wouldn't be the first so-called lez scene in one of Christina's videos ["Stripped" 2002). I for one am happy to see her back in the mix of things.

too far to be compared with lady gaga
ms lady gaga is a woman with her own style and ms.aguilera she made herself as christina so both of them have an extra appeal as a total performer its just ......healthy competition is normal in music industry ....I love them

Why do 'reporters' always want to create drama...
...where there is none! Are you trying to tell me that Lady Gaga was the first ever to wear a latex bra and skirt?!? Come on...before Lady Gaga, artists were doing kooky things...I've actually never seen anything remarkably original in Lady Gaga's videos until the last one with Beyonce - had some interesting firsts. But please - as someone else has already stated, Christina has done the lez pretend scene, she's done over the top sex, she's been blonde, she done over the top drag-ness - even been criticized for it in the past before...what short memories you all have!! How about building up both - you know its allowed, right?!?

Sarah...
Read the blogs all over the web. Everyone is saying that. This is commentary on reporting. You are uptight! Loosen up.

there might be similarites, but Christina has that unique twist. Don't get me wrong, I love Miss Gaga more then I could really express in words [except for the fact that my wife is sick of me listening to her and wonders if I shouldn't just marry Gaga instead). However, this video has not only proved that she can run with the best of them, but also that there is nothing special about taking a vacation from the norm and being something different for a change.

I love Lady Gaga but I've been gaga over Christina since she hit the scene 10 years ago. Her style has always been unique & is always evolving. There both great artists so maybe the comparisions are a good thing?

Originality is so 1987
Emulation seems to be the norm, rather than the exception. Earlier this week I watched a video which showed a number of outfits warn by Christina over the years which Gaga later incorporated into her stylings. Originality in the fashions of artists is almost laughable, given the commonality of most everyone on the scene today. Body suits, without benefit of pants, have made the rounds and been worn by everyone from Beyonce, Rihanna, Pink, Gaga, Nicki Minaj, etc. I'm far more disturbed by their use of lesbian imagery to seem "edgy" and as a marketing ploy than by similar leggings being worn in a video.
