Were hot pants really a good idea Christina? Aguilera shows off her fuller figure as she joins judges for big opening performance on The Voice

She appears to have been showing off a more curvy figure recently.
So perhaps Christina Aguilera should have thought twice before selecting a pair of tiny hot pants before her opening performance on TV talent show The Voice this evening.
The 30-year-old singer wore the shorts teamed with a low cut leopardskin shirt and silver jacket during at the number in which all four coaches for The Voice performed a Queen tribute medley.

The performance kicked off the series of live shows which pits Christina's four remaining contestants against those of coaches Adam Levine, Blake Shelton and Cee Lo Green.
But Christina had to grab her share of the spotlight, again later taking centre stage in a very low cut green dress as she performed an arresting cover of Lady Marmalade alongside her four 'team' members Beverly McClellan, Frenchie Davis, Raquel Castro and Lily Elise.
Tonight saw 'Team Christina' go up against 'Team Blake,' with Raquel opening the contest with a flashy cover of Ke$ha's Blow.

With contestants from each team facing elimination next week after being put to the public vote, a few of the singers were clearly nervous, with 'Team Blake' member, high school student Xenia Martinez, looking jittery during an performance of Jessie J's Price Tag.
However, her jazzy voice impressed Christina who said: 'You’ve become one of my favourites on the show. You do come across very shy and you’re so young, but when you open your voice, the maturity that comes out, I’d love to listen to a whole album of you.'

However, things got a little niggly between the judges after Christina contestant Beverly McClellan's impressive performance of Melissa Etheridge’s I’m The Only One.
'The one that got away,' Adam said after Beverly’s number, referring to the singer's decision to go with Aguilera as her coach, instead of the Maroon 5 vocalist. 'You’re amazing.'
'You just make all the boys so jealous, the only thing Adam can destroy are his pants, because I know that he wet them every time you came on stage,' Christina retorted, a remark which clearly puzzled the band front man.
'Beverly, you’re so good I s*** myself,' Adam said.

The judges were also impressed by Dia Frampton's individually styled performance of Kanye West's Heartless, which saw her play the piano on stage.
'That's probably the greatest rendition of a song I've ever heard,' Cee Lo Green said.
Adam agreed: 'That was the most refreshing, unique thing I've seen on the show so far.'

However, the judges were a little more critical of the choreography in Christina performer Lily Elise's song, with Blake questioning Lily's backup dancers during her cover of Fergie's Big Girls Don't Cry.
'Was it your idea to have the four mimes standing behind her?' he asked his fellow judge.
'Just because you haven't done a dance move in your life,' Christina retorted.
But she did compliment Blake team member Patrick Thomas, who sang country singer Lee Ann Womack's I Hope You Dance

'I’m still waiting for you to take off your pants,' she said. ''Am I right ladies?'
The final performance was left to Frenchie Davis who blew away all the judges with her rendition of David Guetta song When Love Takes Over.
'There's something beautiful about you,' sighed Adam.

Meanwhile,Team Blake's group performance was less dramatic than Christina's but equally impressive as they sang Maroon 5 song This Love, impressing Adam.
'Excellent song choice,' he declared. 'You're so much bigger than everyone else, Blake.'
Next week will see the members of Team Cee Lo pitted against Team Adam, and two members of Christina and Blake's team facing elimination.
The winner of The Voice will land a $100,000 prize and record contract.
