JENNA DEWAN TALKS ABOUT CHRISTINA AGUILERA

JJ: Congrats on being Christina Aguilera’s bound-at-the-wrists S&M slave in her new “Not Myself Tonight” video. Everyone gets to see your booty!

JD: (laughs) IIIIIIIII know. I got the call one day from a publicist saying “Christina Aguilera would like you to do a cameo in her video, would you be interested?” and I was, like, of course! I’ve been a fan of hers forever and I love the single but they wouldn’t tell me anything until the day before!

JJ: You didn’t know any of your choreography until the day before?

JD: No - I knew nothing! All I knew was they wanted an actress - someone who was sort of well-known and she wanted somebody to do this fun cameo with her! I actually thought it was dancing. I didn’t know until the day before that I was having a scandalous moment with her! When they told me, I just thought it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience - go for it!

JJ: Have you heard any of the comparisons to Lady Gaga and Madonna?

JD: Yes, yes, yes - I’ve heard nothing but that! You know, my thought on it is I think she looks beautiful. I think the video’s really sexy and fun and it’s meant to get people talking. And I think everyone draws comparisons from artists but she’s definitely her own, unique artist. She’s been around for over ten years and I really like it. I’m proud of that video.

JJ: Do you have a favorite Christina era or album?

JD: I used to dance with her - I only did a couple shows with her, right before Stripped and the Dirrty video - around that time. I’m a fan of what she did with Back to Basics, that whole album and her look in that. Those were my favorites. Very retro - very her. She’s the tiniest person I’ve ever met in my life. I’ve never met anyone in my life littler than she is. She’s got this tiny little hourglass figure and that worked for that retro look!
