The cryptic video came after fans shared footage from Xtina's performance in Baku, Azerbaijan. In the fan-captured video, a powerful clip played over some ad-lib as the former Mickey Mouse Club star repeated the word "liberation" over and over.
"X, X-tina, exhale, explore, express, experiment, exploit, exclusive, exist, expire," Aguilera narrated in the clip. "My existence has no expiration. This is my liberation. This is our liberation. Be liberated with me. It's time for a liberation!"
