The woman made famous for her amazing voice has been getting much more attention lately for her voluptuous figure. Thirty-one-year old performer and mother Christina Aguilera is much curvier than she was when she first burst onto the scene as a teenage singing sensation in 1998.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Earlier this year, Christina was slammed for her weight after making concert appearances in scantily clad ensembles revealing a much curvier figure. Specifically, she drew much attention for her appearance at the Michael Jackson Tribute Concert<\/a><\/strong> after uncomfortably donning a tight corset and fishnet stockings during her performance.<\/p>\n

The star admitted to drinking more after going through her divorce from former husband of five years, Jordan Bratman, and being lax on her diet.<\/p>\n

Her poor diet choices and junk food binge eating slip-ups added up to lots of extra calories and plenty of weight gain. As a result, Aguilera’s weight has fluctuated drastically over the last several years.<\/p>\n

Proof of this came just months after her Michael Jackson Tribute appearance when she was photographed looking much slimmer<\/a><\/strong> and seemingly “back on track” in terms of her health and her size.<\/p>\n

Prior to this slim down, Aguilera also managed to lose more than 40 pounds after the birth of her son, Max. The star reportedly relied on breastfeeding and a restricted diet of 1,800 calories to slim down, in addition to 90 minute training sessions numerous times a week with a personal trainer.<\/p>\n

Since then, however, it seems Aguilera isn’t focused so much on weight loss as she is settling into more of a happy medium when it comes to her size. In a sense, she’s coming to terms with being at a weight that’s more realistic for her in the long run.<\/p>\n

As reported by People Magazine<\/a><\/strong><\/em>, Aguilera has sold more than 50 million records worldwide and feels she no longer needs to remain at a certain size to prove her worth. Instead, she’s owning her body and embracing her curves.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>In a recent interview with Billboard Magazine<\/em>, the star opened up about no longer working under a music label that constantly criticizes her size. “You are working with a fat girl: Know it now and get over it,” she said.<\/p>\n

Reflecting on how her fluctuation in weight was received, Aguilera said, “The next time my label saw me, I was heavier, darker and full of piercings. Let me tell you, that wasn’t an easy pill for them to swallow.\u00a0Basically, they told me I would affect a lot of people if I gained weight – the production, the musical directors.”<\/p>\n

Despite any resistance she’s faced in the past, Aguilera is confident with where she now stands. In another recent interview, \u00a0The Voice<\/em> judge said, \u00a0“As long as I’m happy in my own skin…that’s all the confirmation I need. I’m happy where I am, I have a boyfriend that loves my body, I love my body, my son is healthy and happy. That’s all that matters.”<\/p>\n

Aguilera’s latest project is a new album called Lotus<\/em>, which is due for release in November. Of the opening track titled “Your Body,” Aguilera says, “They need a reminder sometimes that I don’t belong to them. It’s my body.”<\/p>\n
