Songstress Christina Aguilera released a video teaser for her song 'Your Body' off her upcoming album Lotus.
In the 19-second snippet, Aguilera gets hot and steamy with her male co-star in the front seat of a car in the desert.
Directed by Melina Matsoukas, who also directed Rihanna's 'We Found Love' and Beyonce's 'Move your Body," the snippet features a trailer-park chick Aguilera wearing bright colors with a retro feel.
"Once we started talking with each other and she heard 'Your Body,' she spun it in a way that you wouldn't expect at all," Aguilera told MTV News about her discussions with Matsoukas about the video. "And I get to play this character that, yeah, she may be a little bit of a badass, she's very confident, self-assured, but she's super playful and super tongue-in-cheek. She laughs the whole way through the video. She's watching cartoons, and you know she doesn't take herself too seriously.
"I don't think I've ever done a video using so much color and freedom and fun," she added. "There's some unexpected twists and turns. There's cars blowing up, but it's really done in a very fun and playful, tongue-in-cheek way, in almost a comedic sense, if you will. And I had such fun playing that character."
'Your Body' is the lead single off Aguilera's new album due out Nov. 13.
