Christina Aguilera stuns in a denim playsuit and fishnets as she joins the cast of Burlesque: The Musical following the press night performance
The singer, 44, who played Alice Marilyn Rose in the 2010 film, wore a denim playsuit with fishnet stockings.
She teamed the fitted one-piece with a cropped leather jacket and added a pair of thigh-high heeled boots.
Joining the cast on stage at The Savoy Theatre after the show, Christina was given a bouquet of flowers.
Her first look of the evening consisted of a daring black string mini dress with black stockings and high heels.
Following a sold-out run in Manchester, Burlesque The Musical is now playing at the Savoy Theatre for a strictly limited season until 6 September 2025.
Christina swapped the spotlight for a seat in the stalls on Sunday when she slipped into London's Savoy Theatre to watch a preview of Burlesque The Musical.
The musical reimagines the 2010 screen hit that first turned her into an on-screen star.
Christina previously displayed her thin appearance and sparked concern among fans who discussed rumours she might have undergone plastic surgery on her face to achieve her transformed appearance.
Her frame has also sparked rumours among fans who wondered if she may have turned to Ozempic-like drugs to help her impressive weight loss.
Despite the speculation among fans that she may have altered her appearance in some way, the Grammy-winning singer–songwriter has not addressed any of the rumours.
She was previously rumoured to have had a breast augmentation after displaying a scar under her arm — which is a common place for the surgical incision — in 2010.
Recently, Christina showed off her age-defying looks on the cover of the French magazine Carcy, which set rumours bubbling from fans who wondered if she had touched up her face.
In October of last year, multiple plastic surgeons who had not treated the songstress spoke to DailyMail.com about her seemingly transformed appearance, suggesting that she may have undergone a face lift to sculpt her cheekbones and smooth the natural lines between her nose and lips.
Earlier in the night, the star left little to the imagination as she showcased her underwear beneath a daring black string mini dress
Other cosmetic surgeons have shared similar opinions about her new appearance on social media.
Although Christina has not directly responded to the claims, she recently said she no longer feels the need to 'give a f***' about the public scrutiny on her body.
Following the speculation, she has since commented on the years-long 'obsession' over her weight in an interview with Glamour from August.
'When you're a teenager, you have a very different body than when you're in your 20s,' she said.
'I started to fill out, and then that was unacceptable because it was like, "Oh, she's getting thicker." Then I had industry people: "They liked your body and how you were as a skinny teenager."'
However, as she has grown older, she revealed that she does not let comments about her weight affect her anymore.
'I have a maturity now where I just don't give a f*** about your opinion. I'm not going to take it on,' she stated.

Taylor recently hinted at her second pregnancy on social media, sharing bump snaps and saying she "couldn't wait" to meet their newest addition. It was just last month that the influencer revealed she's expecting again. Taylor appeared in a sweet video with her hubby and her daughter Mila, two, on Instagram.

Both Alex and Simone attend The Sketcher Project, weekly art classes for people living with a brain injury at Insole Court in Cardiff. The class is run by artist Beth Morris."We don't just do art, we have a good chat and we're friends, we're family," she said."Alex is the king of banter and it is hysterical, they're just great mates." Back in 2009, Alex had just finished his GSCEs and was on holiday with friends in Puerto de Andratx in Mallorca when he was hit over the head with a bottle. He suffered a brain haemorrhage in the attack, was placed in an induced coma and flown back to the University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff."For the first six months after the attack I thought it was a dream and then I realised it wasn't and it was real," he said. Before the attack Alex had planned to do A-levels and was thinking of pursuing a career in law but everything friendships fell away, he said, he had countless surgeries and then his father died in 2010. The attack has left him with weakness down his left side and other issues such as fatigue and difficulties with went to college but said he struggled, before working in a call centre alongside volunteering for the charity Marie Curie and Rookwood Hospital, where he was able to support others coming to terms with a brain injury.

It's like a retreat really."Alex said he sometimes spotted people looking at him because "I stumble and limp as well so I look like I'm drunk all the time" - but at the art class he never feels judged. Simone, who is married with three children, has been coming to the class for more than two 2020 she was working as a support worker when she got a headache."I'd never had one before," she said."I think it took my balance a little bit and I must have passed out, that's all I remember."Unbeknown to Simone she had the condition arteriovenous malformation (AVM) which had caused a brain spent eight months in hospital where she had to learn to walk and talk again. Today she lives with acquired ataxia which affects co-ordination, balance and said she felt able to share both her good days and her bad days with the friends she has in class."It's very comforting because they know what I'm on about," she said. Asked how life has changed since the haemorrhage, Simone's answer is surprising."It might actually be better," she said."I'm getting out more, I'm meeting so many more people, so I suppose I'm doing things that I would never dream of."

Manon has been enjoying success with her art. She has won prizes at the Royal Welsh Show and one of her patchworks is currently on display at Liberty London. For her, art is a way to keep busy and avoid over-thinking."Art classes mean a lot more to me than the actual artwork," she said."It gives a structure to my week and something to look forward to every Thursday and an amazing new group of friends who are all struggling with similar problems to myself."The frequent coffees and chats with her art friends "means a lot", she Simone and Manon all have their work on display at the Inspired at Insole Summer Exhibition at Insole Court until 8 September.
