Goes To Hollywood

Christina Aguilera is bringing dirty back with the video for her new single, 'Not Myself Tonight,' ditching the motherly, good-girl image she cultivated following her raunchy buttless chaps days. Christina sings that she's "not the same girl" ... and maybe she isn't, because despite our longtime love for her -- and her videos -- we can't help but feel like we're looking at an over-sexed stunt when really all we want is our gorgeous, sultry Christina back. Or, in more song-appropriate terminology, we want Christina, not X-Tina. Our reasoning, plus the risque video everyone's talking about ... after the jump!

The Hype Williams-directed video premiered on Aguilera's Web site at midnight in support of her upcoming album, 'Bionic.' Let's just say it makes the racy chaps she wore in 'Dirrty' look downright demure.

Christina literally sets her closet on fire in the steamy video -- and all that remains is jewel-encrusted bondage gear, skimpy red lingerie and a braless leather jumpsuit that warrants a little blurry censorship bar over her bosom. We're not sure we're allowed to describe a lot of what she's doing in the video in print, but we can say that pasties are worn, dog bowls are licked and birds are flipped -- all before she finally hits the bedroom with a hot male model in a romp that is likely to get the Parents Television Council in a tizzy.
