Las Vegas, NV — Christina Aguilera has sent her fans into a frenzy as she unveiled a dramatic new look while announcing her upcoming Las Vegas residency. In the promotional photo for the residency, the iconic singer showcased one of the shortest haircuts she’s ever sported, leaving fans intrigued about her bold new style.
Aguilera’s sultry vibes were on full display with her wet-looking cropped cut and striking black makeup in the promotional image. While her fresh and edgy hairstyle had everyone talking, it’s not the first time the Grammy-winning artist has experimented with short hair.
Devoted fans will recall her curly bob during the “Back to Basics” era in 2006 and her jawline-length straightened hair at the 2010 Golden Globes. This time, however, Aguilera’s look exudes confidence and takes short hair to a whole new level.
The Las Vegas residency, set to kick off New Year’s Eve weekend at the Voltaire Belle de Nuit at The Venetian Resort Las Vegas, has generated immense anticipation. Tickets for the event will go on sale on Friday, October 13, and fans are eagerly awaiting to see if Aguilera will maintain her striking new hairstyle for the performance.
In the promotional image, Aguilera wore a strapless bodysuit with a mesh bodice, surrounded by a captivating backdrop of glittering black. Her edgy haircut, styled by hairstylist Igor Rosales, featured a side part and a textured finish that raised questions about its classification – bob or bixie, a fusion of bob and pixie. The hair’s wet look perfectly complemented her dark and mesmerizing makeup.
Los Angeles-based makeup artist Etienne Ortega was responsible for her striking beauty look, painting her lids black for a dramatic cat eye and ensuring her skin glowed with radiant highlighter. Aguilera broke the beauty norms by boldly combining a dramatic eye with an ombré lip, outlining her lips with black liner and filling them with a pink gloss.
In recent years, Aguilera has been known for her platinum blonde hair in long, flowing styles that cascade to her waist or hips. The surprise transformation, marked by this daring new haircut, has ignited anticipation for her Las Vegas residency and left fans wondering whether she’ll continue to embrace this short, captivating style when she takes the stage. Only time will tell.
