It seems lately that you have to pick your team: either Team Lady Gaga or TeamChristina Aguilera. Well we are firmly on side…Xtina! It doesn’t get much better than Christina, if you ask us. She has a way of reinventing herself a la Madonna every couple years, and we think she’s just about due for a new look. We saw Xtina out to lunch yesterday with a lady friend at La Scala restaurant in Beverly Hills, California. She chatted with us outside the window of her car for a bit before taking off.

Christina was showing off her super slimmed down figure as she shopped at Agent Provocatuer, one of LA’s hottest and most notorious Lingerie shops.

She browsed the store and picked up some goodies, but we’ll leave that a secret between her and her hubby! We bet this is a shopping bag Jordan Bratman likes to see brought home!

OneIndia reported:
“Visitors at Christina Aguilera’s new Beverly Hills pad are in for some ‘shocking’ surprise, as the singer is allegedly planning to decorate her house with hubby Jordan Bratman’s choice of art. The record label executive was spotted checking out shock artist Cleon Peterson’s latest show at the New Image Art gallery in West Hollywood on Monday.

And it is believed that Bratman might just use one or two pieces, showing images of rape, mugging and brutality, to furnish the house they bought from The Osbournes. “It was clear he was there to check out Peterson’s The Occupation exhibition, which opened last week (ends23Jan09),” Contactmusic quoted one gallery regular who witnessed Bratman’s art interest.

He said: “The artist’s pieces look colourful and interesting from a distance, and closer inspection shows scenes of street violence. It’s quite disturbing. “He left the gallery without buying anything, but you could tell he was very interested. Maybe Christina will have to OK his strange choice in art before he buys.”

Huh. Maybe living at Ozzy’s house has it’s influences.
The singer told several sources the reason for the purchase and the move was largely in part to “The Osbournes” on TV. Christina was apparently such a big fan of the series, that just watching it convinced her she had to have it.

“I used to look at the kitchen on that show, and they could hang out in that little sitting area. It looked really cozy.” She told a source.
“It’s really perfect… We’re still a young couple, and we want to entertain and be able to have those times, so it’s a great house for all that.”
Christina also shared how she is turning Jack Osbourne’s old room into her own personal beauty parlor.

“That’s going to be my humongo (corr) dream closet and hair and beauty salon.”

Christina Aguilera took a friend along with her on a marathon shopping day at Ron Herman Clothing Boutique in Beverly Hills, California yesterday afternoon. Christina wore comfy clothes iincluding a warm hat with a black sweater and a checkered board pants. She did some aggressive shopping at the boutique. She picked clothing without trying it out. She just looked at her friend for approval and then an associate came to pick it up. That’s how you shop when you’ve got money to burn like Xtina does, and we can respect that…and be a little jealous, too.

Well, Mr. Nunez had to work for this photograph and it certainly paid off. Look at the beautiful La Dolce Vita quality to it! Check out the little Paparazzo in the lower left of the frame! Just amazing. Breathtaking.

All this due to Mr. Nunez’s charm to get Christina to toss him that kiss!

So how did Mr. Nunez manage to get this set of exclusive blockbuster photos of Christina when the competition is so fierce in this town? It is easy, he is a positive thinker and he never lets the word “no” fall into his vocabulary.

By the way, Christina and Mr. Nunez had a wonderful and memorable time at the Paparazzi session. Oh yeah, Jordan was there too!

This is our craft and we capture everyday life in Los Angeles creating iconic photographs. Nothing personal. Just art.

Not to worry Christina Aguilera is just fine. Looks like she was just joking around for the cameras. The editors will be all over this photograph since she is so animated and that is what sells.

Just you watch, this photograph will sell over and over again in fifty countries for many years to come.

She was on her way into our favorite restaurant Toscana in Brentwood. Love the swordfish there.

Look it is Christina Aguilera and her husband Jordan Bratman! OY VAY Jordan, stop with the old coat trick. That went out with La Dolce Vita. Just let Picasso get his photographs.
