After giving us a sneak preview behind-the-scenes look over the weekend, Xtina Aguilera has finally released the music video for her new single Keeps Gettin’ Better, the first track released from her new Greatest Hits compilation Keeps Gettin’ Better: A Decade of Hits. Choosing to forego the traditional music video release on MTV, Xtina decided to premiere the vid online on the Facebook iLike app:
Now that TRL is ending its 10-year run on MTV, Christina Aguilera [took] to the Web to premiere her new music video for her hit single, “Keeps Gettin’ Better,” on Monday afternoon. The singer, 27, chose iLike.com, a social music Web site and Facebook application, to release her new video. In it, Aguilera travels through time – and costumes – to the present day. “I really enjoyed making the video,” Aguilera says. “Being an artist who likes to play around with different looks, it was a lot of fun to portray various characters within the same shoot.” The song will be featured on her greatest hits CD, which includes 10 of her best singles and another brand new song, “Dynamite.” It will be available exclusively at Target stores on Nov. 11.
Sadly, I have to admit that the music vid is NOT as cool as it sounds in the description. Even the behind-the-scenes preview was misleading … I am really not very impressed with the video at all. We know from the preview pics that Xtina did a lot of “green screen” work … and by the look of the final product, it appears that she shot the whole video in one afternoon. There isn’t much action at all. I’m sorry, IMHO it’s kinda sucky. I don’t understand … Xtina has enjoyed a decade of hits and this song is actually very good. Her live performance of the track at the 2008 MTV VMAs was HOT! This vid is not. What do y’all think? Thumbs up or middle fingers out?
After videos like Hurt and Fighter I thought Christina would Keep Getting Better. VERY DISAPPOINTED!! Did anyone else think the video was blurry?
Who even watches videos these days? I saw Britney’s video ONCE, and haven’t seen it played anywhere since. Christina’s song is great even without a video. Nuff said.
thank you bobo. really if you notice…90% of the videos these days are half asses cause really..no one watches them. christina didnt have to have a super hot video…she wasnt working at any kind of comeback. when she had the blue hair, she looked great, i wish they used it more. you all need to get over this comparing business (even you trent)…its getting old.. fast.
don’t love it don’t hate it
Video is tired. She should fire her stylist for trying to do the Lady Gaga thing. But having worked with a stylist of hers before I know she likes to “borrow” ideas.
I agree, the stills that were first released made the video look interesting, but it was B-O-R-I-N-G lol

Well, I loved it. Two mother fucking thumbs up!
I actually liked it LOTS!!!
i watched 41 seconds of it before clicking X lol
Erg.
NOT GOOD!!
I guess this just shows that Britney is tops.
Brit’s video rocks and this one sucks.
Too bad for her.
Enough with the stupid comparisons to Britney.
If you really want to make a comparison…ok – Britney needs parental supervision… and LEGALLY. Christina doesn’t. Now that says more about a human being than any idiotic video.
i agree with laloh with more comparisons with britney!
britney – 80+ million records sold
xtina – 40+ million records sold
talk about half.
and even so, all britney articles in the internet are independent of xtina but most xtina articles always end up being compared to brit. xtina totally lives in brit’s shadow.
I didnt think it was that bad. It was a cool concept. Not really right for this song though.
So the chick sells 80+ million records, fantastic.
And she can’t take care of the most basic things in life, and at 26 needs her father for that…amazing. hopefully she at least knows how to wipe her own ass.
laloh, you don’t know what your talking about..! read the necessary prerequisites first before making further comments.
as much as i love xtina and had a chance to talk to her and take pix tigether… as much as ive learned from her performances and listening to her voice…
THIS VIDEO TOTALLY SUCKS!!!!
wtf? i mean i get it.. she wanted to pull out a fun random, futuristic video… but its so… boring and stupid… yukh
Its no more borning than the rest of the vids out there so everyone can calm down, take a breath, and listen to the song because its HOT! and can we please let the Britney comparisons go…thats the most boring topic of all….Over it!
I had to exit out of it. horrible.
um i was kinda bored and didnt finish it…GO BRITNEY!
I made the mistake of reading everyone else’s comments before I actually watched the video. My computer & Ilike.com dont mix well I ended up watching it on myspace and on youtube they have the tell me video. Altogether I actually liked the video despite it being a bit blurry.
