| Aguilera's best friend - Feb 2005 | LOOKS like CHRISTINA AGUILERA, who had a big hit with What A Girl Wants, has finally got her hands on what every girl wants — a diamond engagement ring.
The Dirrty singer showed off the £60,000 sparkler shortly after JORDAN BRATMAN popped the question.... |

| All vamp - no skank - Feb 2005 |  When it comes to style, Christina Aguilera is the queen of chameleon fashion. She changes her look quicker than you can say "genie in a bottle" but while she's had her hair share of couture crises, more often than not Christina has got it going on.
Remember the baby-faced Mickey Mouse Club girl that burst onto the music scene in 1999 with her self-titled debut? There was the flawless complexion, the straight blonde hair and the demure dress sense.
Six years later (but almost a lifetime in Xtina's fashion files) and the 24-year-old is feisty poster girl for wild-child style. She ... |

“When I look at pictures of myself from back then, I can’t recognize that girl. I was never comfortable with the image people gave me back then.”
2 What A Girl Wants
“It would be easier for me to play little miss pretty, singing ballad with pretty hair. But that’s not me, I like to push boundaries. “
3 Dirrty
“My nickname is Xtina. I’m Xtina when my darker side comes out and I want to cause trouble. She’s a little more sneaky and sly.”

Creating a hybrid of electronica melded with attitude, Kelly establishes a sound that comes together with confidence.... |

One of the most promising performers to emerge from the bubblegum pop scene of the ’80s, Tiffany has grown up quite considerably.
Before there were Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera, there were Tiffany and her perceived rival, Debbie Gibson. Until she released her well-reviewed 2001 CD The Color of Silence and posed for Playboy magazine.

| Rip/Torn - Feb 02, 2005 |  Christina Aguilera really lets one rip after a big dinner at a Beverly Hills restaurant in a pair of trendy tattered jeans. But don't worry about the pop star's personal finances. Her frayed flares cost just as much as her hot white zipped bomber, pink push-up bra, satin pumps and sequin purse. We bet all that shredded denim cost even more than her makeup. And all that liner, mascara, shadow, foundation, powder, lipgloss and blusher could break anyone's bank.

| Parents may monitor TV and Internet use, but kids can easily pick up adult messa - Feb 03, 2005 | Parents out there, take a look at these lyrics:
"Sweat until my clothes come off," goes part of the refrain of Christina Aguilera’s song “Dirty.” “I need that, uh, to get me off.”
Sex, drugs, alcohol and violence. It’s in today's music and kids are listening to it all. Pichon, student: Just growing up with this kind of music, you get so accustomed to it. But kids are hearing it loud and clear.

| MTV Asia Aid for tsunami victims - Feb 03, 2005 | THE MTV Asia Awards at the IMPACT Arena in Bangkok today has been renamed MTV Asia Aid to help raise funds for the tsunami-hit region.
While the noble move is laudable, there's still doubt whether the event has lived up to its aim of promoting the region's best artistes.
With Christina Aguilera and Maroon 5 cancelling their appearances, the hype is now on multiple Grammy winner Alicia Keys. Also performing are Asha Bhosle (India), Bird Thongchai McIntyre (Thailand), Good Charlotte (US), Hoobastank (US), Jay Chou (Taiwan), Kelly Clarkson (US), Namie Amuro (Japan), Simple Plan (Canada), Siti N... |

| Donny Osmond: Who Can It Be Now? - Feb 04, 2005 | VH1: How radical did Stevie's music seem at the beginning of the '70s, when he emancipated himself from Motown?
Donny Osmond : I don't look at Stevie as a radical performer. I just look at him as a man with great melodies and great chord changes. I remember, "Village Ghetto Land," Songs in the Key of Life. That album changed my life. I wish there were a lot more singers like Stevie. He can interpret a song with so many different calisthenics. Christina Aguilera doesn't have calisthenics, whereas Stevie can just put soul to it.

| Explores why India is a hotspot for world's best entertainers - Feb 04, 2005 | That George Harrison came down to India repeatedly is no secret. Trips to Delhi were in his regular itinerary since he would often come down to learn the sitar from Pt Ravi Shankar. Sting's spiritual quest took him to Benaras on many a private visit to India. While the private visits still continue with Christina Aguilera and Liz Hurley coming down intermittently, the last few years have seen a welcome rise in the number of public appearances of international artistes. Even a Britney and a Beyonce are more than eager to give email interviews to Indian journalists as well.

| Dirrty girl to wed - Feb 05, 2005 |  Christina Aguilera is officially engaged to long-term boyfriend Jordan Bratman. They've been together for a while, so I'm not really surprised. She's managed to keep the relationship low-profile, which I think helps to make it work. Although it's difficult to imagine her as a housewife, I think Christina will prove people wrong and have a happy marriage.
She used to be a bit wild, but Britney seems to have had more of a crazy like over the past year than Christina.
Wonder if Britney will get an invite to the wedding, though?... |

| Pop princess flashes the bling at opening of top LA fashion store - Feb 05, 2005 |  Yowser - that's one heck of a rock on Christina Aguilera's finger! Combined with the hairdo, the coat and the Bet Lynch-style leopard-print backdrop, Christina didn't exactly blend into background on a night out last week.
The pop princess dazzled at the opening fashion designer Roberto Cavalli's new Beverly Hills store. After sashaying up to the boutique, Christina, 24, wasted no time at all in proudly showing off her impresive 60,000 poundsterling engagement ring.
Christina's fiance Jordan Bratman, who has been going out with the Dirrty singer for two years, had planned to pop the question... |

When you think she’s all over blonde, she’ll show you dark. Christina Aguilera has made an art of transformation. But what is she really like? Chrissy Iley investigates.
PEOPLE often comment about Christina, ‘such a little girl, such a big voice’. So I was expecting small, although maybe not quite this small and practically like an ironing board in profile. Under five feet in heels, a stripy T-shirt, hair in an anonymous bandana, skin an even, dark caramel.

| Cowell Slags Off Beyonce - Feb 07, 2005 | Simon Cowell has extended his cutting criticisms to beyond those poor wannabes who turn up and audition for Pop Idol. Instead, he's taken a swipe at the hugely successful talent that is Beyonce - and has called Jessica Simpson a "dumb blonde".
Strangely it wasn't all about his vicious tongue - he did admit that Christina Aguilera is an "unbelievable talent", adding that her tune Beautiful was one of his top pop songs. He also went on to praise Katie Melua and described Joss Stone as "terrific".

| Simplicity Scores at the Big Game - Feb 07, 2005 | Verizon V-Cast. This ad for a service that transmits video to your cell phone featured overblown personalities like Christina Aguilera and Deion Sanders clamoring to shrink enough to fit in the small cell-phone video screen. Misdirection and celebs, especially those who are egomaniacs turning the humor on themselves, is a time-tested formula. The execution of this spot, by McCann-Erickson in New York, was very good. And it perfectly conveyed what the Verizon (VZ ) product is about.

| They 'killed the song' too - Feb 07, 2005 | Although Aguilera is often relegated to the bubblegum pop music category alongside Britney Spears, she has always had R&B leanings.
Her 1999 breakthrough single Genie In A Bottle is very much influenced by R&B. As for her latest work, she has a duet with Nelly, one of the best hip-hop artistes today, on the song Tilt Ya Head.
Nelly even said she 'killed the song', which is a great compliment in the black music world.

| Tamer commercials amusing but forgettable - Feb 07, 2005 | But most ads mined our celebrity worship instead of our imagination. Who cares if Carson Kressley checks out a handsome guy in a Diet Pepsi ad? Who remembers Carson Kressley anyway? A mini Kid Rock and Christina Aguilera for Verizon? Mini interest, more like.
Surely none of the ads offended anyone. But here's the price you pay: No one could have been all that entertained, either.

| Scoring few points - Feb 07, 2005 | Celebrities abounded, sometimes to the detriment of the product. The idea of a miniaturized-star fad, in a commercial featuring Kid Rock, Christina Aguilera and Shaquille O'Neal, was clever -- so clever that it overshadowed the product it was pushing (some Verizon camera-phone device, I think). Celebrity-driven fads were a recurring theme:

| Jacko's Thriller is top music vid - Feb 07, 2005 | Michael Jackson's Thriller has been voted top pop video of all time in a poll for a TV show.
The 1983 vid, featuring Jackson turning into a zombie, beat entries from Robbie Williams and Madonna in a public vote for a Channel 4 programme.
Other entries in the top 50 include Hey Ya by OutKast, Christina Aguilera's Dirrty and The Scientist by Coldplay.
Jackson, who's facing charges of hurting a child, has a total of three songs in the top 50.
The top ten videos are:
* Michael Jackson - Thriller
* Peter Gabriel - Sledgehammer
* A-ha - Take on Me

In fact, on January 23, after a leisurely late-night dinner with Bratman and a few pals at Mr. Chow, Aguilera "made a big show of covering her left hand," says an onlooker. "There were rumors she was wearing a ring, but she wouldn't let anyone see." Still, not everyone is buying the engagement buzz.

She thought they were just going to Carmel, Calif., for a romantic weekend getaway, but Christina Aguilera's boyfriend Jordan Bratman had a surprise in mind.
On Friday, Feb. 11, when the couple returned from a six course dinner, she found he had filled their hotel room with rose petals, red and pink balloons, and gift boxes, each containing a present and a self-penned poem.
"When I got the last box," she says, "there was a ring in it. I was so surprised! It's classi... |

| Chrissy In Pink - Feb 26, 2005 |  I'm beginning to wonder if Christina Aguilera is suffering an identity crisis.
