Christina Aguilera performed at the Africa Rising Festival in London last night. She showed up to her gig in a mesmerizing Pucci Kaleidoscope-style shirt paired with shiny black leggings and purple heels. The 27 year-old songstress who is rarely seen without pounds of makeup told reporters that she plans on having another child. She already has a ten-month-old son, Max Lion, with her husband of three years, music executive Jordan Bratman. She seems very dedicated to her son and talks about how much wonder he has for the world:
“Absolutely, we’ll definitely have more kids,” she told PEOPLE at the Africa Rising concert in London Tuesday. How many? “I don’t know. We’ll play it by ear.”
For now, the singer, 27, is enjoying her time with Max.
“I’m in love with my life,” she says, although parting with her son to perform can be a drag. “But Mama has to work, Mama has to do a job.”
She adds, “I think it’s important to share what I love – what makes me me – with my son. So. I change diapers and I breastfeed him and I play with him and then I work. I want to show Max everything about me.”
Aguilera, who married music exec Jordan Bratman in 2005, says Max inspired her upcoming album. “It’s all about color and life. Everything’s a playground for him. Everything is color and fun.”
How did Aguilera regain her body after baby? “You try,” she says. “Working out. Trying to eat as healthy as possible. I’m a junk food queen.”

Aguilera is not my favorite celebrity, but she’s definitely talented and you can tell that she really loves her son and cherishes him. It’s nice to see stars once known for diva behavior, like Aguilera and Nicole Richie, soften up once they have children. And if they want more than one child, more power to them. Now that Aguilera’s sweet little boy has changed her life she would do well to change her look up and lighten up on the makeup too. Just switching your lipstick from bright red to bright pink doesn’t count.

she and her stupid face do nothing for me. im sick of seeing her make that sultry lip-snarl cross between ‘i smell something bad and come ravish me’ face all the freaking time. no matter what she does she looks tacky and cheap and over processed.
It’s like she’s trying to look like a drag queen. 😯
But yeah, more power to her as a mother. God bless.
This is what trying too hard looks like.
I love her voice but hate her face. She looks like she uses spray paint. Anybody remembers Death Becomes Her?
Her next musical incarnation is this future techno goth thing 🙄
Ha Ha Death Becomes Her is one of my favorite movies! I notice she says she wants to show her son everything about HER. Interesting. I wanted to show my sons everything about the WORLD.
That all white getup does her no favors.
I really admire her talent and how far she’s come from where she started out. That being said, if she used a lighter hand when applying her makeup or got rid of the makeup person who keeps painting her up like a clown, she’d be so much more attractive. I’ve seen photos of her with no makeup on and she’s just stunning. She’s definitely not doing herself any favors by putting on make up with a paint roller.
Can anyone tell me what this girl look without cement on her face ?
I only remember this because i found it really beautiful, but her son’s name is actually Max Liron (meaning my greatest song)
Once upon a time there was a very pretty girl named Christina Aguilera who had a hit with “Genie in a Bottle”.
I don’t know what happened to turn her into this, but I guess somewhere a wicked witch comes into it.
Look…it’s her face, her deal. If you don’t like her face with makeup then don’t look at it. She does not have to conform to those people who say she has to look a certain way.
Leandra- it’s a sales pitch for her next album, not a statement of individuality. Big difference.
Why does she look like a Russian call girl?
