Robin Thicke Asked Wife For Permission To Shoot Saucy New Video

R&B singer RO_B__I_N TH_ICKE sought the permission of his actress wife Paula Patton_ before including naked models in his new music video _B_LURRED L_I_NES.

The Sex Therapy hitmaker recently recorded the track with rappers T.I. and Pharrell Williams and they shot two versions of the promo - a child-friendly one, which was released last week (ends18Mar13), and another strictly for adults.

The X-rated second promo, directed by Diane Martel and featuring a handful of sexy women dancing nude for the cameras, hit the _I_nternet on Tuesday (26Mar13) - and it's already proved to be a big hit online.

However, Thicke reveals he only went ahead with the saucy project after receiving the thumbs up from the Precious actress.

He tells the Associated Press, "When I first got both videos, I liked them both, but I thought the first one is so good maybe we'll just release that and not release the second one. And then I started playing it for my friends and my lady, and everybody just thought it was great. _I_t's entertainment... Obviously if she (Patton) didn't like it, I wouldn't put it out."
