Jessie J has vowed not to echo Robin Thicke's infamous 'Blurred Lines' music video by stripping off for their upcoming duet together.
The 'Domino' star says she won't be engaging in any raunchy antics when the pair shoot the music video for their new duet 'Calling All Hearts'.
"No boobs! Not doing that," Jessie revealed to The Sun this week. "Even though Robin is cool and I was thrilled he wanted to duet with me.
"I'll be getting paid a lot of money if they want me to dance around like the girls in the 'Blurred Lines' video!" Jessie joked.
The pair have teamed up for the new song fresh from Robin's recent success with his single 'Blurred Lines', which features a music video including a number of topless models dancing around the singer.

Jessie J has picked the likes of Adele and Emeli Sande as the stars she would most like to see replace her on The Voice UK.
The 'Do It Like A Dude' star deiced to step down from her position as coach for a third series and told Capital Breakfast that she will be happy if someone "credible" fills her seat.
"I just want someone credible and someone that can really sing because a lot of the audience don't see the amount of work that goes in," she explained. "You genuinely are mental [when] you're a coach – you have to sing for 12 hours."
The star said "anyone that's not known for their singing," coming in would be disappointing.
She continued: "If anything comes before their voice, they're not write for the show."

Jessie also named Annie Lennox and Lulu as possible candidates.
"I'd love to see someone like Emeli Sande, Adele, Lulu, Annie Lennox," she said. "Like Lulu is like a timeless voice for our country."
