Christina Aguilera is gracing the cover of the October issue of Maxim, showing off the results of her hard work at slimming down. The mother of 5-year-old Max and original The Voice judge poses in various sexy shots in the issue.
On the cover, Aguilera wears briefs and a black bra exposed underneath a men’s white shirt. She told the magazine that sex appeal should require no effort.
"I'm such a down-to-earth girl, I'm comfortable in just a jersey and boy's underwear," she said. "Trying too hard to be sexy is the worst thing you can do. Sexiness should be effortless."
Aguilera, now divorced from Max’s dad Jordan Bratman, is dating Matthew Rutler. She said of her taste in guys, “the quickest way for me to feel weird and run for the hills is if somebody sits down and serenades me with a guitar. It's not my thing."
Us Weekly notes that the “Genie in a Bottle” singer, 32, also spoke about her Mickey Mouse days; specifically Ryan Gosling, Justin Timberlake and one-time rival Britney Spears.
When asked to choose between Gosling and Timberlake, she said "They were both very charismatic, but I think I have to shy away from the question. I don't want this to bite me in the butt later. They were tight, you know. They'd walk around together all the time, same as me and Britney [Spears] would. Now look at us. It's funny how that played out."
Aguilera will appear on Season 5 of The Voice, returning from her Season 4 hiatus.
