Notably, it includes people attempting to change their body shape, a gay male couple kissing despite disapproving stares from onlookers, and a trans woman getting dressed.
An 18-second clip teaser which Aguilera shared on her Instagram profile, features a group of young girls in a room, applying makeup, each with a camera providing a closeup on one of them, and each wearing matching turquoise latex clothing. Various voices are heard simultaneously giving advice on beauty and fitness. The video has been directed by director Fiona Jane Burgess.
