Whoa! Christina Aguilera doesn’t look like a drag queen!

W Magazine featured two divas almost as famous as the Democracy Diva in their latest issue. They released two covers – one of stripped-down Christina Aguilera, and one of glammed-up Beyonce (which we’ll blog about soon, of course). Photographed by Daniele Duella & Iango Henzi, the XTina shoot offered a refreshingly normal look at the usually drag-ified star. Not sure why she only got three photos (and only one with clothing in it) when Beyonce got a full-blown fashion spread, but let’s take a quick look regardless.

It’s actually a lovely photo, and Christina looks simply angelic in it. But I can’t like it, because it just reminds me a bit too much of…

Scrape off some makeup, switch the bubbles for flowers, and you’ve got practically the same photo. The triangular, mega-puffy platinum locks; the doll-like eyes; the bum you could bounce a quarter off of… sorry, I just lapsed into a total lesbian moment. What was I talking about again?

Phenomenal dress. Ethereal is the only word to describe it. But doesn’t her head look way too small for her body?

Stunning. We like the big hair – we consider it an understated homage to her “Lady Marmalade” days. And this is probably the best photo taken of her since then.

Check back in soon for Beyonce’s cover!
