Christina Aguilera disappears for months at a time, and by that I mean that she’s not walking on red carpets regularly, nor is she constantly in the news or gossip blogs. She’s 44 years old and her messiest years are behind her, and she survived them. Well, Christina has gotten a lot of attention in recent days for posting photos from a magazine shoot. The magazine? Carcy, which I’ve never heard of. I’m not entirely positive that the magazine didn’t just hire some blonde woman off the street and they’re trying to pass her off as Aguilera.
So, yeah, this is insane. These photos are part of the “what kind of plastic surgery are these people getting” discourse. What’s even weirder is that… Christina has been out and about a few times this year, notably at some Grammy events and not even a month ago at the Breakthrough Prize event (I’m including those April photos below). It’s clear that Christina has had some work done, and it wouldn’t surprise me if she’s been getting tweaks and updates for years. But the person in the Carcy Mag photos has no resemblance to the Christina in early April. I don’t even know what’s happening.

She’s had a change up in her face for a few years now.
Yikes!! That’s quite a change.
They hired Avril Lavigne as Christina. The photoshop is to oblivion.
Yep. Avril Lavigne is who I saw, too.

Agree. The small upturned nose in the photoshoot is very Avril.
Teehee 🤭🤭🤭 I was just saying to myself about the top pic, what in the avril Lavigne Chuckie doll hell is going on here?
I thought that was Kesha
Me, too!
Me too!
That is who I immediately assumed it was too!
In some photos, she has Kesha’s face, in others she has that cartoonish instagram face. I think, that is on the magazine, that made the editing / photoshopping to this level.
What made her unique, made her Christina Aguilera is gone. It makes me so sad when women do that to their face. But years of comments and pressure, grinds everyone down.
That’s Christina’s face, her features are the same. She’s just gotten older. Like Britney, Christina’s first album was recorded and released when she was 17 – 18 years old. ‘Genie in a Bottle’ from her first album was played at her senior prom. Google any photo of her from the mid 2000s when her adult face settled or even stills from the (2010) film “Burlesque” and compare her features from then, to the photos above.
And she hasn’t disappeared. Christina released an extremely well-received Latin language album titled “Aguilera” in 2022 and the music videos are stunning. She has also had a residency in Vegas. But mainly, she’s just been a mom to her son and daughter.
Are we looking at the same photos? That’s not ‘Christina’s face, she’s just gotten older.’ If anything, the woman in these photos looks a lot younger than Aguilera.
Some of these comments are a little silly to me too. It’s very clearly Christina Aguilera to me — she’s just much, much thinner with different makeup.
The Carcy pics or the red carpet pics, because neither of them look like Christina Aguilera. One looks like they mashed Kesha and Zendaya’s faces together and one looks like a Christina Aguilera impersonator. She looks like she’s gotten cheek implants and jaw work done, and she looks like she’s plumped with many fillers, as if she’s a masculine caricature of herself. She’s still her, but let’s not pretend that she came by this current face naturally.
Let women age however tf they want to
it looks like her? it looks like her after she got that intense face lift and lost weight, but you can definitely tell it’s her with a lot of heavy makeup and low lighting. 🤷
It looks like Carcy asked Chat GPT for “Christina Aguilera photo shoot.”
I’m sorry, but all of the women in Hollywood look the same now. I can’t tell Christina from Madonna or either of them from Florence Pugh or even Kim Kardashian. I find it to be rather tiresome and dull. They all look fake and like they were baked off the same cookie tray. I don’t understand how anyone would find this attractive.
I fleetingly thought it was Jessica Simpson.
In the picture of her wearing a gold dress, she looks like Zendaya wearing a Beyonce wig. I don’t recognize the old Christina. But recently she has the Ozempic look.
She looks like herself to me in the red carpet photos and exactly one of the Carcy photos. The other magazine photos look unrecognizable. In the mag photos the shape of her lip filler is off.
She’s a forever favorite of mine.
I don’t get the weird denial in the comments…it’s like insisting that Kim Kardashians and her sisters haven’t had plastic surgery. Feels like gaslighting TBH. A quick Google search will show you how different she looks from even 5 years ago and no it’s not just weight loss or aging lol. She’s not aging in reverse, guys–she got lip injections, Botox, fillers and the usual Hollywood workup. She looks great IMO but don’t piss on my leg and tell me it’s raining.
I I think it’s unfair to claim plastic surgery based on magazine photos. Retouching, makeup, lighting, etc makes people look different.
Just search for Genie in a bottle on youtube. She was a waify 17 yo at the time, and at least I see a strong resemblance to that early career self. Not at all the curvy, red-lip diva of her further years. Of course she’s had work done, her lips in the red carpet pic are obviously surgical. Her voice has always been excelent, but she overlapped with Britney and producers didn’t know how to properly market her outside the pop-princess label that she seemed to reject. I don’t think she’s strapped for cash, since she just completed a very succesful Vegas residency and at least her first two albums remain amongst the top best sellers of all time, but it’s smart of her to try to get her slice off 90s, 00s nostalgia money pie.
