Christina Allergic To Latex Outfits!
She said: ''For my video shoot I didn't go to bed until five in the morning... in the freezing rain, in the cold, wearing a two-piece red latex outfit. Torture! I got nauseous with exhaustion from the video shoot. It was just a long day. Did I get a skin allergy from the latex? I did get a little bit of a rash at one point. Where? Next question!''
The 29-year-old beauty - who has a two-year-old son, Max, with her music producer husband Jordan Bratman - admitted her spouse loves to see her in fetish clothing, although she wouldn't like it if he tried to return the favour.
She said: ''It's beautiful...I'm really into fetish gear and latex is really making a strong statement for me. Good body contours. Has my husband worn it? I would not know! And I'll never know! You don't want to get your b**ls caught in that.''
The only time Christina hasn't worn such provocative outfits is when she was pregnant.
She added to Q magazine: ''Have I ever toned it down? Never! Well, maybe when I was pregnant. There was no latex then.''

"Bionic" Offers Fresh Sounds And Amazing Vocals
Among the best tracks on Bionic is the flirty Peaches collaboration “My Girls,” a song that cleverly riffs on the track’s title — which could mean either best girlfriends or a pair of boobs — over a video-game-styled background and funky guitars. The raunchy track is a perfect candidate for an updated “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun.”
Aguilera also delivers on the rave worthy “Elastic Love,” finding the songstress likening love to rubber bands with her hypnotic drone over Euro-pop beats and stuttering synthesizers on the M.I.A.-assisted track. The best of the ballads on Bionic is “You Lost Me,” where Aguilera puts herself in a league of her own with amazing fluttering vocals during the pre-choruses on the hauntingly beautiful track, co-penned with Sia. The song alone reasserts Aguilera’s relevancy to the current music scene with each note she belts out. While recent dance tracks’ production often consumes songstresses’ voices, Aguilera instead has the beats compliment her big voice like one hot mess on her first single, “Not Myself Tonight” and Lil Jon crunk jam “Prima Donna.”
The set falls short on the Tricky Stewart number “Glam,” which was touted as a modern day “Vogue,” though the stiff track lacks personality and doesn’t get remotely interesting until Aguilera unleashes her killer vocals near the song’s end. Bionic would have been an indestructible set if it was shorter and tighter, but instead, the filler material on the album exposes the chinks in Aguilera’s otherwise glorious armor.

Christina Aguilera On American Idol Finale
Christina Aguilera may have taken a few years off to raise her son, but the singer proved she's back in a big way on the "American Idol" finale Wednesday night (May 26).
The singer — who will perform at the 2010 MTV Movie Awards on June 6 — tore into a stirring, soulful version of "You Lost Me," a track from her forthcoming Bionic LP, that proved, if there were any doubt, that she's got one of the best voices in the business.
Aguilera took the stage after this season's female contestants — Lacey Brown, Didi Benami, Katie Stevens, Siobhan Magnus and Crystal Bowersox — performed a medley of her hits "Beautiful" and "Fighter," emerging from below the stage to help put the finishing flourishes on the latter, then, as the stage went dark, stepping out into a spotlight for her solo.
Accompanied by somber strings and a piano, hair pulled back in her Bionic curls, and wearing a demure black ensemble, Aguilera started softly, singing about smoking guns, lost magic and the tragedy of a dying relationship, then picked up steam from there as the music swirled beneath her. The middle section of the song was smoky and solemn, Aguilera stretching the notes, then, eyes closed and right arm outstretched, sang for the rafters.
Her voice got bigger and bigger as the song entered the home stretch, but she never let things get out of control, and brought the tune home with a simple, breath-y "You lost me."
And as the "Idol" audience gave her a much-deserved standing ovation, it became clear that Aguilera still has got the goods to go up against anyone.

Claude Kelly Talks About Christina And Gaga
Fans have already gotten a pretty good taste of what they can expect from Christina Aguilera's upcoming album, Bionic, out June 8. In addition to the singles "Woohoo" and "Not Myself Tonight," other tracks from the disc have leaked online. Despite rumors that worries about the album's success are what prompted Aguilera to postpone her summer tour to 2011, songwriter Claude Kelly said it will be the album of the summer.
"I'm excited about Christina," Kelly told MTV News at the "Sex and the City 2" premiere, where he also dished about working with Leona Lewis and Jennifer Hudson on their track for the flick.
Kelly said that he enjoyed hitting the studio with Aguilera to cook up some choice tunes for the release. "I did 'Woohoo,' which is the single out now," he shared about the track that also features Nicki Minaj. "I did 'Glam,' which is kind of like futuristic, kind of an homage to 'Vogue' by Madonna. [I did] a song called 'Vanity.' [I did one called] 'I Hate Boys.' She has a fun record coming out."
Aguilera's look during TV appearances and videos of late has led some Lady Gaga fans to accuse Christina of biting Gaga's style. Kelly said the two pop queens couldn't be more different.
"I will say that there's room for everybody," he said. "I also know Gaga as well. She's incredible. They really are honestly two different powerhouses. Once the album comes out and they hear what Christina's doing, I don't think the comparisons will last. But, I mean, at the end of the day, they're both amazing women."

Christina Aguilera Collection By Stephen Webster
The first collection is named “Shattered” (main source of inspiration – Gothic church windows), and we can already share with you info about the second called “Superstud” (was inspired by punks and their life), we will see it next month (prices between $343 and $3,528)
According to Webster, Christina Aguilera is and always has been one of his main clients, what is more, she is so glamorous now and can be regarded his main inspiration. “She was a real coup for us,” says Webster.
First Impression Review: BIONIC
With tracks Bionic and Elastic Love Christina steps into M.I.A. and Santigold territory and pulls off two unexpectedly bombastic tracks. Glam, Prima Donna and Vanity show off her cocky and playful side, while the Sia tracks serve as the “heart and soul” of the record. Bionic is an eclectic, bold and inspired album that recklessly challenges mainstream pop radio.
Time will only tell how the album will be received but I will pre-maturely call the record another triumphant creative endeavor under Christina’s belt. Details about each track are below (sans interludes and bonus tracks.)
•Bionic: The album kicks off with this audio bitch-slap. Very Santigold + M.I.A sounding and I’m totally okay with that!
•Not Myself Tonight: First single from Bionic, great club song about losing your inhibitions.
•Woo Hoo: A catchy tongue-in-cheek hip hop track with Nicki Minaj.
•Elastic Love: Co-written with M.I.A. and Switch. Big spacey sound to be played out of big speakers with plenty of bass.
•Desnudate: There is so much going on in this track but it all somehow works. Definitely one of the album’s best surprises.
•Glam: Xtina and Tricky team up to give us Vogue for the year 2020, incredible driving and dizzying beat pushes the album into overdrive.
•Prima Donna: A bumping and hypnotic bassline, will definitely make it to my summer playlists.
•Half way through Bionic, the album slows down for Sex for Breakfast. Smooth and mellow R&B track reminiscent of Janet Jackson.
•Lift Me Up: This studio version is a bit different than the version performed at the Hope for Haiti telethon. Beautiful and raw vocals on this Linda Perry-produced track.
•All I Need: A sweet piano ballad dedicated to Christina’s son Max.
•I Am: Christina admits she’s everything but perfect in this great song out of the sessions with Sia Fuller.
•You Lost Me: Melodic piano track about infidelity featuring some really cool vocal arrangements.
•I Hate Boys: It’s got a stadium anthem feel but remains light, sassy and fun.
•My Girls: A funky girl power song featuring some of the most iconic women in music Peaches and Le Tigre.
•Vanity: Christina closes out Bionic with this hilarious dance track about embracing your vain side. Sure to be a staple at many drag shows.
Verdict: B+
You’ve got to hand it to Christina for going after what she wants no matter what the risk. Like Christina’s previous records Bionic is heavily rooted in concept, which can sometimes create a mess (notably here with the sequencing.) I like every song on this record for different reasons and the record as a whole for not taking itself too seriously. It’s definitely made the sonic boom statement that Christina is back!

Message From Christina About "Bionic Tour"
Dear fans,
I made the decision to move my summer tour and I am truly sorry to those of you who had purchased tickets and have been disappointed by the news. Immediately after wrapping production on Burlesque, I went directly back into the studio and then quickly started the promotional process for Bionic. With both the album press and film press I am booked the entire summer and need time to focus on the work at hand. After reviewing the schedule with my team, I realized there was not enough time to put together and rehearse for a proper show, one that is at the caliber you expect from me or at the level I would present to my fans. In addition, my album has not even been released as yet and I would like for you all to become familiar with the music before you hear it live on tour. Again, I am sorry to have to move the dates but I promise to come see you when the time is right!
I look forward to seeing you all on the road soon enough to get BIONIC…
With love,
C/X
Low Tickets Sales Rumors, Not True!
on Top 10 Summer Tours
The reason? She's got too much work to do to, you know, work.
"Christina Aguilera's summer tour has been moved to 2011 due to prior commitments that the singer had made to her film Burlesque and to the promotion of her new album Bionic," tour promoter Live Nation said in a statement.
But don't cry for her busy schedule. She's really canceling it out of respect for the fans—putting on a show now wouldn't live up to the quality either Aguilera or her audience have come to expect.
"The singer felt she needed more time to rehearse the show and with less than a month between the album release and tour date, this wasn't possible," her spokeswoman said.
The tour was scheduled to begin on July 15. Her new album, Bionic, is due out June 8. The new dates will be announced later this year.

Bionic Tour: Posponed Till 2011 For "Burlesque"
Meanwhile, the Grammy-winning artist is set to appear on the finale of American Idol on Wednesday, according to Aguilera's official Web site.
Those who had purchased tickets to Aguilera's planned summer concerts will be able to receive a refund, her spokesperson said, adding: "The singer felt she needed more time to rehearse the show and with less than a month between the album release and tour date this wasn’t possible. New dates will be announced later this year."
Bionic is due for release on June 8. Two days earlier, she is set to appear at the MTV Movie Awards. Her film Burlesque, which stars Kristen Bell and Eric Dane, hits theaters on November 24.
Aguilera's first scheduled summer concert was to take place at Uncasville, Connecticut on July 15 and her tour was set to end on August 19 in Irvine, California.
Then at 2011 it is!

LOVE AND GLAMOUR
Fashion is a lifestyle, it’s a choice
It’s a freedom of expression
You have to live it, you have to love it
You have to breathe it
Life is all about love and glamour
GLAM
Glam, don’t let the clothes wear you
Lets get glam, it’s all in attitude
Now snap!
Now snap!
Here we go!
Blush on, lashes long, mascara strong
Lips, eyes, cheeks, face
Give it style, grace!
Better be ready for your photo up
Step in the life for your perfect close up
PRIMA DONNA
Don’t care who’s around me, I can fool the world
So hands up, get your style ready, there’s no stopping this
Right now in this moment, I can rule the world
So ladies, POP POP POP
Blow it up, make it, POP POP POP
Turn it up, speakers, POP POP POP
‘Till I’m drunk, bottles, POP POP POP
Kick it back to the verse right now
A little fun never killed, never hurt, no…
MORNING DESSERT
Good Moring
Time to get ready for work
I’ve been waiting
Get up, morning love, time to get ready for work
You might be a little late…
SEX FOR BREAKFAST
Our bodies touching, I just cant get enough
I wanna love ya, love you, love you, love you
Hey, won’t let you sleep
Gotta satisfy my needs
I need to love you, love you, love you
And when the sun rises, there’s one thing on…
LIFT ME UP
And I’ll be strong enough to try
When the static clears
And all is said and done
I will realize
That we all…
… Pappa?
Sing papa, sing
Hu- hu!
Sing
Da?
Yeah, show me how you sing like mommy
Ha-ha
Mammaaa!
ALL I NEED
Your bring me hope when I cant breathe
You give me love, you’re all I need
Slowly I’m holding you
Closely wrapped in my arms
In your…
Its not that I need it, just need you to see me
Take me, free me, see through to the core of me
Take me, free me, there will be no more pretending
YOU LOST ME
And this is tragic
You couldn’t keep your hands to yourself
I feel like our world’s been infected
And somehow you left me neglected
I HATE BOYS
He-e-ey!
I hate boys, but boys love me
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I hate boys
If you hate the boys, shake it, now shake it
If you hate the boys, shake it, now shake it
We will all be happy, all be glad
It’s sweet, momma nature never had
All these dirty little boys will think that the girls
Will only be their toys
Boys want some women, but…
MY GIRLS
Girls
So ladies step it up and take control
Now shout
My girls, we’re stronger than one!
Now shout
And sometimes, we gotta have fun!
Come on
My girls headed to the city, y’all
We got Cosmo on the dash
And tickets on the floor
We got Sia and Ronna and Peaches too
We got Johanna and JD and we’re coming for you
My girls (My girls)
VANITY
I love me even more (Its me I adore)
Ain’t nobody got shit on me
I’m the best for sure
V is for vanity
Every time I look at me
I turn myself on
Yeah, I turn myself on, yeah
V is for vanity
Thank you mom and daddy
‘Cause I turn myself on, yeah
I turn myself on…
MONDAY MORNING
Skippin’ work and I don’t need to excuse it
Don’t guess, I’m feeling it
I get in the moment, makes it really worth it
Hey, forget about your Monday morning
We are never gonna be that boring
Hey, forget about your Monday morning
So, so ordinary, same old story…
BUBBLEHEAD
When you talk all I hear is,
Wah wah wah wah wah wah wah
Wah wah wah wah wah wah wah
But wait, like, I don’t get it
Hee hee hee ha
Hey what ya lookin’ at?
Body’s so skinny, but your head is so fat
Talkin’, talkin’, talkin’
But you don’t say shit
Got a way with words, you give me laughing fits
Banging on the door, nobody upstairs
You’re a nightmare on Elm Street
Got everybody scared
Make me wanna run when you’re coming around
…
BIRDS OF PRAY
Lost inside a fantasy
Everything not quite what it seems to be
Slipping and falling through the looking glass
Catching a glimpse at all the lies behind the mask
STRONGER THAN EVER
All or nothing
I fear that something is wrong
I’m tired of walking on eggs’ shells
Terrified to fail
And in order to please you
I’ve abandoned myself
And though it used to hurt me
When you pushed me away
I’m stronger then ever
You made me this way
Alert: MIND BLOWING
