I’m trying to be nice, I really am. Which is why I’m calling it – Christina Aguilera’s appearance at the Burlesque premiere in Berlin last night was one of her best showings this whole Burlesque promotional tour. Is the face still drag queen? Yep. Is the braided hair a hot mess? Yep. If this hot pink Alberta Ferretti really the best thing ever? Nope. And yet… Christina has set the bar so low for this promotional tour, that I end up thinking that this is a half-decent look for her. The color pops, and it compliments the drag queen makeup well. And Christina looks like she’s having fun. Well, she looks less like a walking tragedy.
I love how Cher didn’t even bother to try to wear something scandalous. She’s just freezing her ass off.
Who is Cam Gigandet? I know he’s in the movie and everything, but I feel like I should know him for something else. He’s cute, whoever he is.

Her lips are fighting her dress, color wise. But pretty gown!
No, Xtina. No.
ps. Great jacket, Cam! I want one like that.
Lip color and dress are not a good combo…Other than that she looks better
Is she going to David’s Bridal Shop for these Mother of the Bride dresses? Also- the heavy eyeliner and bright red lipstick just don’t work on a fat face, and she’s sporting one these days. Love Cher.
The dress is cool, everything else is FAIL.
sorry guys. HUGE FAIL. more so on the website’s part than Christina’s. If you are gonna do fashion posts, please have someone who knows fashion do it, ladies. I only clicked on this because i read the title and the picture only showed CA’s head, and I thought, “they cannot possibly be talking about the hot pink mess I saw yesterday.”
You know what would’ve bee a more interesting post?
-Is CA pregnant? cuz in that dress def mad me think maybe. plus she hasn’t been boozing up lately, has she???
see? scandalous.
Goodness, she looks like she actually gained an ounce or two.
Torn on the dress. I hate fuchsia, and it’s such a BIG dress, but it’s a nice change for her.
I know Cam in the first Twilight movie. And I really like her, but this tour hasn’t been her best and I do like the color of the dress.
If Christina would wear a nice matte lip color things would work out better for her.
No one looks good with too wet looking red lipstick. No one. Trust me. It always bleeds. And it just looks tacky.
Yet, I do like the dress and the color is fab.
But someone needs to do the intervention with her and that wig.
What has she done to her natural hair that this tragic poly blend wig is consider the better option?
Nope, still a hot mess.
cher & christina…friends with benefits OR christina just has a girl crush? hmmm.
Cam played James in the first twilight movie. He died at the end, they ripped his body apart. He was trying to kill Bella. He was also in that Fighting movie, it wasn’t a box office hit or anything but Kimora Lee’s fiance and baby daddy was in it. He’s been in other things as well. Just can’t think right now. I’m not feeling Christina’s look at all. I’m cracking up over the Cher doesn’t care cause she’s freezing comment. So true.
I’m in the pregnant camp over here. She looks 100% pregnant,”. 110% even, if that were mathmatically possible.
As for the dress… Eh, the lips and hair are clashing too much for me. It’s just too much in general. She’s still looking like a hot mess, as far as I’m concerned. And I say this as someone who saw Burlesque and actually likes Christina a lot!
Cam played James, The vampire who wanted to kill Bella in Twilight. Yes, I am ashamed I know that. He is gorgeous though.
Oh! And he was in Easy A…can’t remember his characters name in that though….
edit: didn’t see Jezi’s comment.
i dont mind any of it besides her joker clown makeup and ugly earrings. I think the dress is quite pretty and the hair is whimsical and a cuter high fashion look that she doesnt normally go for because she usually prefers to look like a blow up doll.
The dress is gorgeous. Xtina, drop some pounds It changes your face. I miss your heartshaped face.
She’s too old for the cartoon character look. It makes her look like a grownup trying to be a kid.
Cam is the long hair dude from Twilight, the super hot bad guy from Never Back Down and the cheater Jesus lover in Easy A.. I hope in Burlesque he has a good guy role, because if you Google him with his baby he looks so handsome and sweet that I just want to have his babies! How could CB not know him, HOT GUY FRIDAY REQUEST!!!!!
I’m kinda thinking she is sporting the Anna Nicole look.
@ Hautie
I can’t get past her hair, either. Or rather her “hair”.
I’m so mesmerised by that weird patch of scalp on the left side of her head, that I can’t even form a coherent thought about her dress yet.
There is no denying that Christina is a talented singer. Her voice is incredible. However, what she lacks is charisma. She does not have ‘it’. Charisma is the most important factor for a successful Hollywood star.
Oh cam giganet did the bad vampire in twilight. he’s hot when he’s normal (lol).
Xtina is really awful with that dress.
@MettelRay Never Back Down, that’s the movie….I couldn’t remember the name.
With the daily Jolie posts, I would never have guessed Christina is also on tour. I’ve seen her in better gowns. I agree with the clashing colors of lipstick and dress. IMO no one can do glamour better than Christina, however. Some of her 40s outfits in music videos are beyond fabulous. Christina is a talent of the last two decades that supercedes any externals, including her lovely face. Her voice is powerful and soulful and her tunes are inspiring. You are beautiful no matter what they say, Christina!
I don’t like the dress, but yes she looks pregnant to me.
About Cam, I first saw him on Never Back Down, and kept thinking on him since then heheh. He looks great in Burlesque btw 😉
Can I nominate him for HGF??
She is not aging well at all. Not sure of it’s the awful make-up, the unflattering fit of the dress, the bloated look she’s developed. Just not good.
Cam = James = Twilight 🙂
And he has the most adorable daughter imaginable! 🙂
@ Jezi: yeah, I had to think for a second (stupid name for a movie and even stupider lead, Cam should have been the lead:D)
I’m too busy drooling over this Cam Gigandet to comment on Christina’s dress.
She looks like a cleaned up Hatchet-Face, without the character.
i’m sorry but Christina just looks AWFUL!
The color is pretty, but her lipstick needs to match or at least be a pink hue. The dress seems like it needs to be fitted better. The hair is messy too.
No, it’s a fail. She can do better.
Christina is obviously loaded with charisma or she would not have made it this far. A big and beautiful voice alone wouldn’t do it.
Hahaha, Cher. I love that she’s not trying, actually. Girl has to keep warm!
Wow, gorgeous!!!
I love the dress but not on her.She’s way too short to pull it off plus she’s gained weight and this dress makes her look huge.It’s so bad this great dress went to waste.This dress needed a tall,slim brunette.
OMG people, Cam played in the O.C.. He’s the one who killed Marissa, Volchok.
this chick is hideous…
inside and out!
@MettelRay You’re right, I would’ve much rather him played the lead character. He had more charisma. But he does play the bad guy well 🙂
Well she’s not orange! That’s good right… not much else to say but yuck.
Normally I don’t like hot pink but I love that dress. I want that dress. *ignores Christina altogether*
Note to Kaiser: Cam Gigandet played badguy vampire James in Twilight. He was also in some other horror movie
sh-tfest called the Unborn. Idris Elba and Gary Oldman was in that sh-t too, believe it or not. Can we add him to HGF? Cam I mean. I sooo would.
Edit: Didn’t realize so many had identified Cam before me. Sooo, Cam for future HGF yeah?
Well, she still has her beautiful voice.
Don’t be mean to Christina! She’s a new mom, recently separated… She’s not tall so even a 5 lb weight gain can alter her appearance in a big way. And many people gain a few pounds if they switch birth control pills, or start a new medication, or simply make a slight change to their routine!
Whoever said she doesn’t have “it” – RIDICULOUS! She may not be taking the best pics or looking her best these past few months, but she’s got IT and more!!
I’d take a BILLION Christina’s over one BS (Britney Spears) any day! (No offense to Britney as a human being…just never was a fan of the whole kiddie-porn marketing angle that sky-rocketted her to fame.)
I adore Christina, always have. I think she’s completely gorgeous and has such an amazing personality. So she’s gained like 5 pounds…Big. Deal. She is 5’3, as am I, and we have the same body type. When you gain (or lose) weight on a small, short frame, it is VERY easy to tell and to see where it went. Who cares what the reason is? She’s going through a major life transition, and I’m kind of proud of her that she looks like a totally normal human being as opposed to a freaking 80-pound alien. Christina is amazing. 🙂
not trying to be offensive here, really, but she looks like a giant clitoris.
I really like Christina’s dress. She looks pretty and I do like this look the best. LOVE BURLESQUE! Its a fun entertaining movie.
That Yulia Tymoshenko hairstyle works for her, but the lip color is too much.
ITA with everyone else, the red lipstick was a bad choice with such a bright fuschia dress…. but the dress itself looks much better on her than a lot she’s work lately.
The empire dress does create a ‘pregnant’ look, and it looks like she’s been intentionally wearing dresses that hide her midsection, so she may very well be hiding a pregnancy bump.
I wouldn’t be surprised if she was pregnant. The weight gain, the sacks she’s been wearing and how she’s covering up her midsection in almost every picture. But then again, she’s going through a divorce and regardless of her relationship status at the moment, that is going to take a toll on her.
Can she please go back to wearing things like she did earlier this year? I *think* it was the Golden Globes (she presented something with Cher) and she was wearing a gorgeous peach dress. The dress was amazing, her hair was great and her make up was PERFECT! She needs to look like that, not like a crazy hot mess that she has been lately.
Christina’s face and figure looked amazing in Burlesque – what the heck happened? She has apparently gained some weight and looks like a completely different person – and in this case, that’s not a good thing.
Mmmmh, I wonder who does her makeup… Ronald Mcdonal maybe?
Don’t be mean to Christina! She’s a new mom…
****************
Her kid is like two. She’s not a new mom anymore.
I’m not going to read the comments to see if anyone else has pointed this out, because I’m lazier than a three-toed tree sloth with a hangnail BUT:
Those pictures that were ‘leaked’ recently, the ones apparently taken in her dressing room/closet? Minimal makeup, extension-free, and she looked the best she’s look in a very long time.
Then again, maybe she has the same relationship with her pancake makeup as I have with my clear nail polish: two coats just isn’t enough to stand up against wear and tear, it’s got to the THREE APPLICATIONS EACH TIME.
I actually like the bright red lipstick with the fuschia dress.. It’s interesting. But perhaps not such a flattering combination for Christina!
Poor thing, she isn’t aging very well. She looks like a bloated Cindy Lauper, with a stylist who designs clothes for dollar-store Barbie knockoffs….. Poor thing.
@Hex (#53)- LOL. That’s how I am with nail polish too, actually. xD A mild OCD tendency. I hope this isn’t the case with Christina, she doesn’t NEED all that mess covering her face, I can’t stand when someone attractive seems to be intentionally trying to make themselves look *worse*.
She looks like the blonde version of snookie in these pix. Not good.
She looks gorgeous! I do agree with Rosalita tho, the red lipstick and hotpink dress are a miss but she can’t seem to live without it.
Looking at the second pic, leads me to think she is indeed pregers
Cam Gigandet – The OC!!!!! I knew I’d seen him before! IMDB baby!
Ditto on the ANS comparison 😆 she looks like a drunk lush
I finally figured out what it is about the way she doz her makeup that bugs me!
its not the lipstick, cuz plenty of actresses wear hot lip colors and work it. its also not the eye makeup cuz thats stomacheabale, albeit sometimes even pretty too!
HER PROBLEM IS THIS:
1) she either cakes on the orange makeup to her face way too much (uugghh can u imagine touching that)
2)OR she goes the other extreme with a matt color and manage to cake on the foundation to match her hair color exactly. so that looks superfake too and hence the blow up doll look.
I wonder if she does her makeup or if shes got somebody to do it? If so, she must really bully her artist into agreeing to make it so hideous… 😛
