Christina Aguilera Does Burlesque

Christina Aguilera Does Burlesque Christina Aguilera’s love of burlesque is no secret. If she didn’t have such great pipes, odds are she’d have grown up to be Dita von Teese. So it makes sense that her first real movie role will be in what is basically a burlesque movie.

Variety says Christina will make her movie acting debut in a movie musical called Burlesque. In it, she’ll play a small town girl with a big voice who finds family, love, and success in a Los Angeles neo-burlesque club. What the hell is neo-burlesque? It’s a lot like classic burlesque, except it encompasses more than just a strip tease and a comedian with a spinning bowtie. Those things are still present, but modern dance and mini-theatrical plays may also be involved. Presumably all of this is performed by barely dressed women in fishnets.

Sony’s Screen Gems division is responsible for Burlseque, which was co-written and will be directed by Steven Antin. Antin, believe it or not, was actually in Goonies. Small part, you wouldn’t remember him, and besides it’s more likely he got the job based on his involvement in that awful Pussycat Dolls reality series. I doubt having once been Troy Perkins held much sway with the studio’s stingy money lenders.
