Christina Aguilera will star in a big screen musical called Burlesque. A bunch of other singers went to the bigscreen, so now it’s Christina’s turn.  The musical was supposedly written especially for her and her vocal abilities, to make her look and sound exceptional.

More pictures of Christina after the jump…

Christina has a set of chops, we know that.  But can she act?  Beyonce has done a couple movies so-so, Britney Spears did a movie that flopped, Jennifer Hudson did an excellent job in a movie…how will Christina rate in comparison to them? From the NY Daily News:

Christina Aguilera has signed on to make her feature film debut in “Burlesque,” a star-vehicle written especially for the pop siren, Variety.com reported on its Web site.

Described as a sultry musical after Broadway legend Bob Fosse’s heart, Aguilera will portray a small town girl with a big voice who moves to Los Angeles and finds romance and stardom at a new-fangled striptease club.

Hopefully the movie is written better than the teaser.  It sounds like a – yawn – same version of Pretty Woman, Cinderella and any other small town girl moving to big city type flick.  Will you go see Christina?
