Aguilera defends her Dirrty video

Christina Aguilera defends the raunchy video for 'Dirrty', telling YAM she finds it sexy and that Madonna is her role model.

Christina Aguilera has reacted to criticisms that her new video for single 'Dirrty' is too raunchy. Speaking to German magazine YAM she said: "I find my new video clip very sexy. It may have a couple of indecent scenes, but it is exactly how I wanted it to be. I'm not interested in moralists. I am happy, and the video is certainly not pornographic. I feel good in sexy outfits. I hate conservative people, and hey, I'm only 21 and in no circumstance want to dress like a square. I want to be different, rebellious, provocative. Madonna is my role model."

However she didn't comment on the criticisms made by Thai authorities over a billboard in the video alluding to Thailand's sex industries. Officials were so offended BMG in Thailand have decided not to release the video there.
