Oct 28 2008Christina Aguilera debuts new video


This is Christina Aguilera's new video for "Keeps Gettin' Better" directed by Peter Berg (Hancock), and I can't believe I'm saying this, but it's no "Womanizer." What it is, however, is a case study in how to shoot a video when your star still hasn't dropped the baby weight: "Great. What can she do? It's not like we can have her sit in a chair pushing buttons the whole time. Or maybe..."

NOTE: What in the hell is up with the "superhero" costume towards the end? It's like she's Catwoman's retarded sister who's always carrying a toy gun from the dollar store. Michelle Pffeifer is probably rolling in her grave right now.

EDIT: Embedded a new video. This is the "official" YouTube version - which means it'll be pulled in about five minutes. Whee!

She looks best in blue hair I guess.

I can't believe I wasted ten seconds watching that.

Why do they even do vidio? seems like a waste, they don't play on mtv or vh1 Am I missing something?

crosseyed, bowl-legged little midget slut!

Fuck this monkey loving ho.

And I thought she only dated guys with "Flava'", then she gets hitched to this dorky looking little jewish nerd?

Fuck this little twat, she tries to act all sexy and shit, her motions are anything but sexual, she looks like she'd be an annoying fuck anyway, trying too hard or something. Like fucking a robot that thinks it's black....Everything about her is annoying.

Go back to your monkey's bitch.

Wow that was really awesome ! By awesome I mean WORST video ever...

Michelle Pffeifer RIP I miss her :(

britney's video actually beats this by far..shocking

that was a great three minutes of waiting for it to end. in the corvette, she looks cross-eyed. and when she's wearing the cat suit, she looks like that crazy clown from metalocalypse.

Why dont the FBI use this eye pollution to torture Jennifer Hudson's killa

Yawn. poor christina always in britney's shadow.

this song is pretty sick.

sounds familiar...I haven't quite put my finger on what song this reminds me of but only sounds like the 99 cent version of "Womanizer".

lol Number 8.

GO BRITNEY!!!!

Hah, she's dressed like scorpius!

Yeah, Brit's better - Michelle Pfeiffer isn't dead you idiot!

Umm..Michelle Pfeiffer isnt dead. wtf?

This video needs nakedness. Hop to it Christina. You're lookin hot except for that hair.

cmon, let it slide. she gave us dirrty!!!

mmm dirrty.

It sounds like a rejected Goldfrapp song, and the video is just plain crap. I had no idea she was broke and couldn't hire real producers and video directors anymore.

It's full of suck and fail.

I weep for today's youth who get off on this... stuff.

holy lady gaga rip off batman!!!

nice vid! indeed!
still remember she played the hot cougar on " Agelessmate.com " all sexy young men simply went crazy about her back then!!
wondering is she going to make a come-back? gonna wait and see!!

super bitch? more like, super fucking lazy. i miss it when she use to bedazzle the shit out of her whooha.

Horrible video to a decent song. It's like a cheap Minority Report/Toxic rip off.

I never understood why everyone thinks she is such a talented vocalist. I find her voice very annoying and all she does is scream and grunt and hold a note for an hour while screaming and grunting.lol. I dont like any of her music. Britney is much better than that tranny Aguillera at least you can dance to Britney's music.

she looks like an evil cocker spaniel in that freeze frame...

I find the video kind of cute and I like the way she controled everything in the videoclip. Yeah the part where she's on a chair pushing some buttons! :P

But of course, I prefer Womanizer (Go britney GO)

she keeps talking about it getting better, but it never does....

The song is turdrific but the video is a straight up pile of poop. I like that they apply the same "slimming" technique on Christina here that they used in Paula Abdul's "Promise of a New Day" video.

You singer gained a little weight? Just stretch the picture. No one will know! Horrible.

She needs to just keep on looking like a cheap easy fuck on her videos.

She totally ripped off Lady GaGa. Omg. Does she think no one will notice?

It certainly isn't a Womanizer song, so no worries on this taking top spot on the charts. Britney knows how to blend genius with musical talent, yet Christina can keep her torch burning, just not as bright as her past.

Regardless, it's a good song and has a nice beat to go along with her unique sound.

How the hell is this copying Britney, to who ever said that...she released the song and the futuristic concept way before Britney...she just hadn't made the video. Although Womanizer isn't a bad song, I feel Britney fans are just exaggerating their love for the song because for once she looks decent and not obese and full of acne in the video, but why are there no shots of her from the front when she's naked? Because her body is not all that still, years after having her kids. Christina barely had her kid and is already looking way better than Britney did two months ago. Britney might have a "better bod" now, but Christina is prettier than Britney at any weight, if anything all that makeup hurts Christina's real beauty, with her less is more...but we've all seen Britney without makeup outside of her local Starbucks with more red circles on her face on her face than a pay-by-the slice piece of pizza from Me-N-Ed's.

Christina has the ugly implants and a lot of her outfits show her ugly huge implant gap instead of cleavage. I still would like to know what she really looks like without her man in drag make up and bimbo bleach dye job. Brittney is definitely prettier than Christina.

why all the anger towards brit katherine? Christina looks like a large and plastic oompa loompa everywhere she goes (not that I think she isn't pretty underneath all of the orange goop). At least britney doesn't walked out caked in makeup and is okay with not looking perfect at every moment. She's just a person...
Anyway, they are both more attractive than your average joe- or judy I guess- but I have to say... "Womanizer" definitely wins this contest. xtina has had some jams in the past and definitely has a more technically skilled voice, she just has never been the better entertainer or dancer (which in pop I would think is vital).

WAY TO GO KATHERINE^^^

I agree on that. Christina's worst beauty day is still 10x better than britneys. Britney is plain, average. Christina is exotic and unique.
In the past Christina has always done "different" videos. She is not afraid to push boundaries, dye her hair green, blue, purple whatever, or look like Marilyn Monroe,Grace Kelly, hollywood glam queen. She has the ability to pull off just about any look/style with those pipes! I have seen her live and she can throw it down, goosebumps! She can sing!
while Britneys career has gone up and down and crashed, Christina has longevity and it "keeps gettin better".

She looks exactly like Lady Gaga when she has the black hoodie on.

How in the fuck can you tell what Christina looks like with all the caked on make up. She probably looks like a plain jane without all the crap. She is not afraid to look like a freak . Christina has the ability to look like a cunt whore or a man in drag; big deal.

Natalie, you really think that "She has the ability to pull off just about any look/style" considering THAT video. Most of those outfits made her look heavy, and considering she hasn't gotten back into shape yet I felt bad for her. And if you honestly think she can "pull off" the drag queen makeup look, you need to have your eyes checked.

Honestly, they were both pretty and skinny girls before they had kids, so I don't doubt she has the potential to pull a Britney and after some time (no one is rushing her) get back to what she looked like originally. But while Christina definitely has a better voice, there's a reason why there are so many die hard Britney fans, while Christina has kinda been dead lately. When it comes to a ballad I'd pick Christina hands down, but when she's pumping out the same generic synthesized pop that Britney is (ie, "Keeps Getting Better"), well honestly, Britney does it a lot better.

And seriously, Christina has been looking REALLY bad lately with her choice of makeup. Like...clown scary. Can someone please take the eye liner and blue eye shadow away from her? I know she wants to draw attention away from her less than slender physique but that makeup is not the way to go.

-Team Britney

This song is a hell of a lot more tolerable than Womanizer.. god I seriously hate that piece of shit.

45 AND 46:

REGARDLESS of what choice of music to sing, clothes to wear ,make up/hair or video Christina chooses she has integrity to back it. She doesnt give a fuck about the nay sayers. She doesnt let anyone decide who she. She does things her way. AND that is admirable.
My point is Christina is agressive and in control. Not bash on Brit but she always plays it safe and when she tried to be "Dirrty" she lost IT. They are very different kinds of people/artist. Christina takes risks and belts her heart out, Britney lip synchs and dances around in hot pants...

el video de Brit es mucho mejor que este cristina simpre va a ser una imitacion
y..........................a que se debe que se vista de gato???? tiene alguna conotacion "encubierta"?????

I personally think her song is okay, but the video was horrible. She could have done a lot better, on another note all I have to say is this FOR THE LOVE OF GOD CHRISTINA PLEASE DO A MADONNA AND REINVENT YOURSELF, STARTING WITH LOSING THAT UNNATURAL OVERLY-BLEACH HAIR COLOR! And lose some weight, you have money so should have no excuse for letting yourself go like that, its hurting your career.

looks very cheap

Wow. Yeah. Wow. I can't believe Michelle Pffeifer is dead.

Hahaha, just kidding. This video sucked.

The video is like what would have happened if Dee Snyder starred in the Jocko Energizer battery ads in the '80s.

Christina married the ugliest man in Hollywood; probably cuz he's the only one that will kiss that fat cellulite ass.

Wooww I expected more from this girl... the video is horrible... and she look horrible too...

54 TINKY,
i disagree.
BRITNEY married the ugliest ,white trash, wannabe in Hollywood and we are they now? Divorced.
Christina is still married. Unlike poor Britney who has bastard children and two ex husbands.
"fat cellulite ass" better than a "tinkY" one!

Worst look abd filmclip ever!!!

She used to be smokin, now she is awful... Least Brit did the cartoon thing when she was too podge to dance for real. Xtina isn't fooling anyone - she looks like a fat heffa

no entiendo por que bardean tanto a christina, el video esta bueno y ella esta linda. y en realidad escribo nada mas para ver si alguien me entiende escribiendo en castellano...

Ale, si te entiendo. Y las personas decentes no quieren la video porque tiene nada de espectacular. simple esta imitiendo britney

Isn't it funny how people here just live brit's crazy antics? She's a trainwreck yet you'll defend her when the need arises.

I do agree that Christina needs to lose a smidgen of weight to live up to Hollywood's standards. I also agree that the makeup is hurting her half of the time when she's out in public...but for a video it's playing dress-up and she can put crap on her face if she chooses too, it's for fun and entertainment. Go back to Genie in a bottle and What a girl wants, and go back to ...Baby One More Time and Sometimes and tell me who is naturally prettier before they both started the whole glam pop-diva bullcrap. To all those Britney fans talking smack now, look at when Christina released Candyman...look at her body then and then look at Britney's pictures then, and then tell me what you think. In fact, look at last year's VMA performance when Britney was drooping like a Sundae in July weather. I mean, I hate to sound like I'm dogging Britney considering I too am a fan of her's...but when you have Britney fans up in here trying to call out Christina for being overmade up and fat, I want them to take a good look at the pics of Bald/crazy Britney on the web and realize that she can go back to that any minute. STOP COMPARING THEM, THEY ARE NOT THE SAME.

One other thing...if I hear the name of this Lady Gaga one more time, I am going to hurl...who is she? And in all honesty who cares? She is probably dieing of happiness to know somebody thinks she looks like Christina, who is actually famous. I can't wait for Christina to drop this new look so people stop name-dropping this Lady Gaga thing...I googled her and let me tell you...she is no Christina.

cristina + peter berg = FAILURE, folks!!
.......................................BET?

Michelle Pffeifer isnt dead........

I dunno what the hell happend to this girl after she got pregnant, but she lost all her good looks in 9 months. Its like she turned 45 all of a sudden. She looks like madonna with bigger boobs (that are saggy) Her new looks are as hot as a hairless dog.

Just a thought but why doesn't everyone wait to see what the record sales do before passing judgment on this track.........?
GROW UP!!!!

My pupils just yawned.

All the veterans of the Fish know how I feel about this chica. Hagsville. Read my theory on bleached blondes (yeah, yeah, I KNOW she's a natural blonde, shit up!)

Hang up your tits Christina, it's over for you.

Ciao!

And another thing....who effing CARES about record sales? William Hung had great record sales...he still can't sing (yeah, yeah, I know Christina can sing, shut up).

Stop it with the record sales. It don't mean shit if you live in a country where Troll Dolls were a big hit, and gorilla faced crack whores like "New York" get televison show.

Puh-leeease!

And 64, Janye, you can't lose something you never had. YEAH I SAID IT!!!

Michelle Pfeiffer is not rolling around in her grave..cause she's not DEAD

#64

She stopped doing videos that make her look like a cheap easy whore and so now all the pervs that buy her music are not interested unless she dresses like a cheap desperate whore.

you people are idiots. the michelle pffeifer thing was a J O K E.

Give her a few more months for her to lose the baby weight, and dye her hair back to a more natural Golden Blond, like the color she has in "Tell Me" with P.Diddy, and you just watch. This girl is a doll, and ultimately beauty is in the eye of the beholder. And to whoever said William Hung had "great record sales" that is a bit of a hyperbole. Christina has sold over thirty MILLION if not more records, and William Hung sold 30 THOUSAND records...what Christina sells in a day if not less....let's get real. And if sales of records don't show popularity, than let her multiple number one singles, her multiple Grammy's, and her networth of more than a hundred million do the talking. At the end of the day this girl has talent, and if we strip all artists of all the shitty makeup and gross hair, and ridiculous outfits, which Xtina is many times guilty of, what remains...her great and undeniable talent and ability to sing.

The video is def. no womanizer, I guess she'd rather do other things than be half naked throughout the video to capture her audiences. Speaking of weight it took Britney what? 2 years to loose all her baby weight and it took her a couple of months. The bitch got more hips now than she did post baby plus she's short and the bad outfits just makes her look big. Regardless when she's 50 she can still sing and at 50 I highly doubt Britney can be "Madonna" and pull it off.

Christina is the tackiest artist ever!!!!!!What is this shit?????the song is a totally copy!!!!!!!The video is a fucking shit!!!!!The looks.....OMG!!!!!!!!I cannot understand why the discography spent money in this shit!!!!!And Christina´s natural beauty????????I never have seen her without 3 kilos of makeup!!!!!!!!!!!She is like an ecuatorian travesti!!!!!!!Omg!!!Please, dont compare with Britney Spears.......she is a talented girl that dance so well and move the world!!!!!!
Fuck u!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@ 75 "Britney Spears......she is a talented girl that dance so well and move the world!!!!!."

First of all, some proper grammar and punctuation would be appreciated. And what's with the overuse of exclamation points and question marks?
Oh, and Britney doesn't wear a lot of makeup? Right...and Paris Hilton has talent then.

haha BRITNEY LIP SYNCHS at least christina has an awesome voice and always has thats one things she does have over britney and I would have to say its sad that britney is bigger than christina cause christina has ALWAYS had the better voice and she use to be tiny......she had a kid.........try having a kid and go back down to the weight she was at

One other thing...if I hear the name of this Lady Gaga one more time, I am going to hurl...who is she? And in all honesty who cares? She is probably dieing of happiness to know somebody thinks she looks like Christina, who is actually famous.

if you don't know who lady gaga is how can you have an opinion on this?
i am a huge christina fan and always have been but the new look is a total ripoff, and not just her look, her new sound, her dance moves, this entire electronic thing she's got going on. if you've seen her performance at the vmas and then looked at the back cover of lady gaga's cd the outfit xtina is wearing is exactly the same. anyone with a brain and two eyes can see the resemblance
