Over the weekend, I covered these photos of Christina Aguilera drunkenly slow-walking her way out of Spago in Beverly Hills. Christina looked like a damn mess, which has been happening a lot over the course of the past few years. Is it even newsworthy when Christina looks like a drunk mess anymore? Eh. Well, Star Mag has another story about just how bad it’s gotten behind-the-scenes with Christina’s drinking.
Christina Aguilera is still a boozing mess! Sources tell Star that on Sept. 28 during a dinner at Spago, Christina drank so much win and champagne that she couldn’t even walk to her car. Her boyfriend of two years, Matt Rutler, once again had to act as caretaker to his bingeing girlfriend.
“Christina loves to drink and has a problem with knowing when enough is enough,” explains an insider. “Matt has told Christina that she should slow down on the alcohol when they are at dinners, but she gets mad and tells him she’ll do what she wants.”
Once thin and fit, Christina’s carb-heavy diet has clearly taken its toll.
“It’s obvious Christina has put on a lot of weight – she lives off champagne and pasta. But she still believes she is healthy and doesn’t think that she needs to work out.”
Christina doesn’t seem concerned with her expanding size, but those around her don’t share her flippant attitude: “She’s putting her health, career and relationship in jeopardy. Matt can only do so much for her, and she’s going to lose a big portion of her fan base if she doesn’t get herself together.”

Part of me thinks this story is kind of tame, mostly because I remember the tabloid stories last year of Christina being so trashed she would go to parties and end up passed out in Jeremy Renner’s bed. And remember the time her mother called her a drunk and Christina told her mom to STFU, right before Christina called her brother’s girlfriend a “whore”? Good times. If anything, this Star Mag story shows Christina as relatively capable of “maintaining”. Yes, she’s an alcoholic. But at least she’s not drunkenly telling her mother to go f—k herself.
And a champagne and pasta diet? That sounds so gross to me. I love pasta and everything, but the combination just seems like a random way to live.

Poor Chris, she is in a truly terrible place right now.
She’s the picture of health! *eyeroll*
She’s a genie in a champagne bottle.
Very good dawning! LOL
Although it isn’t healthy, I could do a weekend or two of the bubbly and fettucine, hey you only live once!
I’ll join you. 😉
Chatcat I hear ya!! I would not mind going to some european country and subsisting on Pasta and Vino/Champagne for a couple of weeks right about now. Sound good to me man
I would totally live on champagne and pasta if I could get away with it!
or, fettucine in a bottle
LOL- fettucini in a bottle! That’s sooo good.
Apparently Matt has got his hands full with his Lady – maybe that’s why he is clenching his fists. To me he looks angry and frustrated.
“A clenched fist may seem like a violent reaction but the action could be enough to deal with anything from pain to temptation, scientists say.”
Wondering what she’s paying him to stay. 🙁
Yeah I was going to say he looks extremely grim.
Champagne will go with everything. Yay bubbles!!!
Nothing to worry about.
After Matt leaves her in six months, Christina will discover healthy eating and exercising -lose 30 pounds, and then be featured on People magazine as a good example for all to follow.
Hahaha Maybe she and Jennie can start a club.
When I was in college, I had a steady boyfriend and two majors so I hardly went out to party but that also meant I had to play the caretaker role/DD every weekend for my roommates. It got REALLY OLD after a while and yet I couldnt not do it because two of my roommates were full blown alcoholics who would bring home sketchy people they would meet on the drunk bus if I didnt pick them up or check on them to kick the sketchy people out at the door.
I feel for that Matt guy. Taking care of drunks sucks and unapologetic ones are the absolute worst. Christina needs a stay in rehab in Arizona or something to dry out.
I had one roommate like that, too, one summer in college. Four of us has bedrooms downstairs and she had a bedroom up a flimsy spiral staircase and we were positive she was going to break her neck drunkenly falling down it. Somehow she survived and so did we. Good times.
@SunKist– wait, was I your roommate? lol
I feel so bad for her little boy. She can’t be much of a mother in her state.
She can be so pretty when she’s in shape. Those extensions look horrible on her and she just looks bloated and ridiculous lately in all her tight dresses.
If she really cared about her child she’d check herself into rehab and clean herself up. I think her ex-husband was a good person …since she left him she’s been a mess.
She’ll get sick and then.. things will change..
What a shame that her real problems are buried under cries of “she’s fat!” Who cares if she works out? If the problem is she is getting blitzed out of her mind on every occasion, hitting the gym and shedding some weight is going to help exactly none. I know thin alcoholics, too, and I wouldn’t hold them up as examples of healthy living.
Exactly. Who cares how she fits in a dress, she’s obviously very troubled.
Beyond the bloat, I think she’s a lot closer to her natural weight now than her much thinner days. She is slowly morphing into her mom, who is not a tiny woman.
This headline made me laugh out loud – that never happens.
Poor xtina I do feel bad for her now. Hopefully she can pull it together soon.
Currently I’m living on frozen veggies and ice cream, so I can’t judge too much – no booze though. For me (very unfortunately) alcohol is the devil. Apparently it is for this dear, aimless child too.
Well, I subsist on Twinkies and vodka, and I’m healthy….just kidding….anyway, I HATE her hair like that. I think she needs to be out of the spotlight for awhile and recollect herself.
I could totally live off of champagne and pasta. Or in my case I’d prefer champagne and potato chips. If it wouldn’t make me fat and give me chronic hangovers I’d do it!
LOL I have to agree. Maybe I’ll have some champagne and pasta this weekend in honor of Xtina. But in all seriousness she needs to get her sh*t together for the sake of her child. She is talented and can be quite pretty when not slathered in makeup and extensions. Get it together, girl!
My word, she’s a mess! Remember when they first hooked up? He was all gleeful and happy, and his face looked like he thought that he really hit the jackpot. Fast forward to two years later; He looks so depressed and disgusted with himself and her. This can only get worse, I fear.
Whatever happened to her kid?
I’ve been wondering this too. I haven’t seen any recent pix of them together.
Did anyone else notice that her boyfriend looks like Sheldon Cooper from TBBT? Ahahaha. Then again, Christina has a history of dating very geeky looking guys.
cannot. unsee.
Her poor boyfriend looks so sad.
Lol don’t worry about him. He could easily pack up and leave, but he’s living a lifestyle beyond his wildest dreams so don’t for a second think that he is in any way put out by his meal ticket.
I luv pasta part of being half italian but u cant eat that everyday and expect to stay thin eating all those carbs believe me I know. And alcohol on top of that ur asking for a fat ass which she should she admit she is now instead of denying it embrace her drunken fatass. She shouldnt call her self thin too everyone will just make fun of her like all of us lol. She looks like a drunken clown in that pic gross. She was last seen skinny in burlesque which was like 4 years ago maybe if she had another project like that she would have to go on a diet for sure. Maybe thats what she needs to motivate her is another movie.
Her boyfriend in the picture reminds me of her ex- husband at the end. With him looking ether mad or over it carrying her drunk ass home from some club or party.
I would happily live off champagne and pasta, but not if it meant looking like xtina does now.
I feel sorry for Xtina though. Im a big fan of her “Lady Marmalade” days. I hope she recollects herself pretty soon. I hope hits gym and sobers up again. XX
I hate this trend for female popstars being physically supported by two men. If your shoes are so high you can’t walk in them, you are not a feminist.
Is she wearing butt padding? I know she’s gained a lot, but that’s got to be fake.
She needs to cut out the drinking, immediately. Not only has it taken a toll on her looks, her reputation, and her career, but I worry that if she continues it may end up ruining her gift of a voice as well, and then what would she have left? Alcohol causes heartburn & acid reflex (as well as vomiting in some people) and the stomach acids that enter the esophagus & throat from all those conditions can and will damage her vocal chords.
She is so damn lucky to be blessed with that voice, as well as the life she gets to live. She is being so shamefully irresponsible with all that she has that even though I’m a huge fan of her work I’d love to slap her hard across the face.
Of course, there’s her young son to consider too, but other people have already commented on that.
Knock it off, Xtina, just knock it off, & give us back the fierce, talented, & flawless diva we had just 2 or 3 years ago.
She looks terrible.
