Justin Timberlake's new Tunnel Vision video with nude, topless models gets banned from YouTube

LA: Justin Timberlake's new video was yanked from YouTube on Wednesday for violating nudity policies.The 32-year-old singer earlier posted a message on Twitter announcing the debut of the video for his single Tunnel Vision and warned of its nature.

'Check out the new video for Tunnel Vision and be ready...it's explicit. -teamJT,' the tweet said.

The video featured Justin and a cameo from music producer Timbaland and showed them ogling a trio of models who pranced around topless and wearing nude-coloured G-string bottoms.

Justin's face was superimposed at one point in the video on all three bare-chested models creating surreal Salvador Dali-like imagery.

The models danced around strategically covering themselves at points with their arms and were also partially obscured by mist.

The video was directed by Jonathan Craven, Simon McLoughlin and Jeff Nicholas. Jonathan is the son of well known horror producer Wes Craven who created A Nightmare on Elm Street.

The song is the third single from Justin's new album The 20/20 Experience and lyrically it has Justin proclaiming that he has romantic tunnel vision for a single love interest.

The explicit video followed in the footsteps of Robin Thicke's unrated video for his hit song Blurred Lines that also was banned last month from YouTube for its trio of topless models.

Timberlake and his new album have recently has drawn comparisons to Thicke for similarly meshing R&B, soul and pop sounds.

Tunnel Vision was released as a single on June 14.

# Justin's follow-up album called 20/20 Experience (2 of 2) has been scheduled for release in September.
