Christina Aguilera plays surprise London show

Christina Aguilera gave an intimate performance at London’s KOKO club last night.

The superstar singer swapped her leather chaps for a sailor’s outfit and fifties glamour as she debuted tracks from forthcoming double album ‘Back To Basics’ for a select audience of competition winners.

The venue’s crowd – more used to indie hits at Club NME – were treated to new single ‘Ain’t No Other Man’ alongside four more new songs.

Aguilera also belted out her cover of ‘Lady Marmalade’ from the Moulin Rogue soundtrack and her smash hit ballad ‘Beautiful’.

The setlist was:

‘Ain’t No Other Man’
‘Understand’
‘Candy Man’
‘Lady Marmalade’
‘Oh Mother’
‘Beautiful’
‘Slow Down Baby’


The singer releases ‘Back To Basics’ on August 14.
