| Justin On Xtina - Jan 2003 | | *NSYNC star Justin Timberlake was on MTV's Total Request Live on Tuesday, and had this to say about Christina Aguilera when asked about her image: "Honestly, I wouldn't put her in a category with either. I wouldn't put her in trailer trash, I wouldn't put her in clever pop chick, you know? I don't think what she's doing now is trying to be clever. And I don't think she's trying to be trash because, I mean homegirl can sing. She's bad. And that's going to translate in 5 years just like how it translates right now when you listen to 'Beautiful'. The fact that she can release a song like 'Di... |

| Chris turns him Downey - Jan 2003 | ROBERT DOWNEY JNR bombarded CHRISTINA AGUILERA with love faxes asking her on a date.
The Ally McBeal star wouldn’t take no for answer and so sent continuous streams of love notes to the singer after finding out her home number.
A pal of Christina’s said: “She was quite flattered at first, but after about three dozen faxes she got tired of Robert’s mushy love notes.
“She thinks Robert’s a great actor but she certainly doesn’t fancy him — there’s quite an age difference.”
Christina decided to take action and faxed back the actor saying: “Look you’re too old!” Christina, 22, hasn’t heard from... |

The teeny pop idol with the great big voice is back. This time Christina Aguilera knows what a guy wants.
By: Robert Abele
So what has Christina Aguilera been doing while her teen-pop cohorts have been busy shoving bubblegum down the gullets of TRL addicts? Well, for one thing, getting totally sexed up! OK, there was other stuff too. Like catching a breather after the mega-success of her 1999 debut album.

| Music industry can't shake doldrums - Jan 03, 2003 | | High-concept pop teases like Britney Spears were eclipsed by young women who wrote their own songs and seemed to be telling their own stories: Avril Lavigne (who detailed all the insecurities of high school social life), Pink (who sang about her parents' crumbling marriage and about an abusive boyfriend) and the more cheerful Michelle Branch. Even Christina Aguilera, who aggressively made herself over in 2002 as a barely costumed vamp, sang about her father as a wife beater. |

About once a week someone comes up to me and announces that they never watch television. They always sound proud of themselves as if it made them intellectual. I can understand not watching, but is not watching television really something to be proud of?
I have to be careful because I find myself telling people that I don't go to the movies as if that made me special. I notice I'm also proud of myself for not knowing some of the people whose names I read in the pa... |

Blackwell suggested to the husky Smith, 35, who stars in E! Entertainment Television's "The Anna Nicole Show": "Don't bother with a new designer, Anna, just hire a structural engineer."

| Hip-hugging trousers 'are health risk' - Jan 09, 2003 | Young women like Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera are putting their health at risk by wearing hip-hugging jeans, doctors warn.
The tight, low-rise trousers favoured by the pop stars can squeeze a sensory nerve under the hipbone and cause a tingling sensation in the thighs called paresthesia.
The feeling is not permanent, but Canadian doctors warn it may last if the jeans are worn regularly.
Three women suffering from the condition have been treated at the Timmins and District Hospital in Ontario, Canada.

| Hip-hugger jeans 'could be health hazard' - Jan 09, 2003 | Trendy hip-hugger jeans could be a health hazard, doctors have warned.
The tight, low-rise trousers popularised by Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears can squeeze a sensory nerve under the hipbone and cause a tingling sensation in the thighs called paresthesia.
While the nerve damage is not too serious, the symptoms might last if the jeans are worn regularly, said Dr Malvinder Parmar, medical director at the Timmins and District Hospital in Timmins, Ontario.
He had treated three women who were suffering from the condition after wearing hip-huggers for between six and eight months.

And not only is pop nudist Dirrty (as her haunting pop ballad of 2002 went), but she's filthy rich too, after re-signing a £50m sponsorship deal with Coca-Cola.
Perhaps she'll be able to afford a few clothes now. We're praying not.

| Pop's Dirrty Little Secret-Christina Aguilera - Jan 23, 2003 | It seems incorrect to place Christina Aguilera in the pop category. For the sake of argument, she is one that can only be classified as extraordinary. When people think of Aguilera, they think of the dirty, ex-genie in a bottle that took the world by storm in 1999.
With her Latin background and hip-hop influences, young little X-tina has revamped the music industry showing the world just how simutaneously beautiful and strong all women can be. Raised from a young abused and rejected child to an independent charismatic woman, Aguilera has a light that will forever shine.

| 'Beautiful' Day - Jan 23, 2003 | Why Christina Aguilera is making a comeback. Critics who wrote X-tina off for her ''Dirrty'' ways may have spoken too soon
Turns out words really CAN'T bring Christina Aguilera down. ''Beautiful,'' the latest single from her album ''Stripped,'' is dominating pop radio and appears to have salvaged its singer's image from the damage done by the live-sex-show video for her so-so first single, ''Dirrty.''
'''Beautiful' is hands-down a runaway number one record,'' says Paul ''Cubby'' Bryant, music director of influential New York top 40 station Z-100. ''It's taken her to the next level and given... |

| Another duet with Ricky Martin? - Jan 27, 2003 | Christina Aguilera - the whippet thin blonde singer with an aversion to clothes - is about to team up with Latin superstar Ricky Martin.
My spies reveal that Christina, who hit the top spot earlier this year with the raunchy track Dirrty, has told her people to "get him".
This is not the first time that the twosome have teamed up.
But could her latest assault on Ricky be the fact that he had also been propositioned by her arch rival Britney Spears? It would appear so.
But you'll have to wait until the summer for what is bound to be yet another explosive video starring Ricky and ... |
