She is well known for switching things up.

And Christina Aguilera stunned fans when she debuted her newest look on social media. The Genie In A Bottle hitmaker shared the toned-down, makeup-free photos from her photoshoot with Paper magazine, which she is on the cover of this month. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bgy7F8rgXjn/?hl=en&taken-by=xtina Following the reveal of the cover photo, fans took to social media to praise the Beautiful singer's fresh faced look. https://twitter.com/blessxtina/status/978331312951037952 https://twitter.com/joshingjosher/status/978335181080801291 https://twitter.com/HailXtina/status/978332672765423617 https://twitter.com/BICONlC/status/978331461047738368 https://twitter.com/christupaea/status/978352281971179520 But while the five-time Grammy winner went bare-faced in the cover shoot, she says she's still keen on experimenting with her image. She said in the cover story:

“I mean, I’m a girl that likes a beat face. Let’s not get it twisted. “I’ve always been someone that obviously loves to experiment, loves theatrics, loves to create a story line and play a character in a video or through stage. "I’m a performer, that’s who I am by nature. "But I’m at the place, even musically, where it’s a liberating feeling to be able to strip it all back and appreciate who you are and your raw beauty.”

“They don’t have as much backlash when they come out on the scene. “And I did. It was a very interesting and controversial time for me.” “Either women are not sexual enough or we’re not fulfilling enough of a fantasy for you. "But then if we’re overtly sexual or feeling empowered in a certain kind of way, then we’re shamed for it. “Madonna had to go through it in her day, and she paved the way for my generation to come up. "And paying it forward, now a younger generation is coming up and I’m loving what I’m seeing. It’s so incredible.”
