In photos of Christina Aguilera performing “At Last’ at Etta James’ funeral, you can see ‘something’ running down her bare legs.  See the photo here.  Us Weekly got the lowdown on just what was going with all that “leaking”.

A source tells them:

She sang her heart out. It was a memorial service for her idol and she was nervous,” an insider explains to Us of the performance. (Aguilera, 31, has been covering “At Last” for years and called James “a true gift to music and a woman of great spirit and courage” on her website after James’ death.”

“It was her proudest moment,” the source explains. “The sweat caused her spray tan to streak.”

Take a look at the photo and see if you agree that it’s sweat making her fake tan run.  How embarrassing no matter WHAT it is.  Also, doesn’t anyone wear pantyhose anymore?

According to US Weekly, all four coaches from The Voice are returning for season 2!

Christina Aguilera, Adam Levine, Cee-Lo Green and Blake Shelton — have signed on for season two of the NBC smash, a source confirms exclusively to Us Weekly.

Aguilera “is very excited” for the next season, an insider close to the singer, 30, tells Us. “It has been an amazing experience for her!” A rep for Green told Us the “Forget You” singer is indeed returning.

(Reps for Levine and Shelton had no comment.)

On Wednesday’s season one finale of the blockbuster singing competition, Javier Colon was crowned the winner after ten weeks of competition. Mentored by Adam Levine, the father of two and Stratford, Conn. native beat out fellow finalist Dia Frampton by just two percent of the vote to win $100,000 and a recording contract.

Season two of The Voice gets underway in early 2012.

You know, I reeeeeaallly gave this show a try. I just thought it was incredibly boring! I liked the audition process (which I usually do on any show) but once the eliminations started happening – the show just got so boring! I didn’t care about any of the contestants, and I didn’t even think they were all that talented!

Did you stick with it? What did you think?

I think no one would argue the fact that it’s been a rough year for Christina Aguilera. The 30-year-old singer is on the cover of W Magazine this month, and inside she opens up about how rough this year has been for her, the childhood pain she still carries, and how she keeps a level head through all of it.

“I felt caged by my childhood. And unsafe: Bad things happened in my home; there was violence,” she confessed to the magazine. “‘The Sound of Music’ looked like a form of release. I would open my bedroom window to sing out like Maria. In my own way, I’d be in those hills.”

It was her Grammy-winning voice that brought her trouble on the biggest stage of the world last February, when she flubbed the lyrics to the National Anthem at the Super Bowl.

“Everything on the field at the Super Bowl was vividly bright, and I was having a moment,” Aguilera said about that embarrassing mistake. “I got lost in the emotion of being there and I messed up the lyrics to the song.”

She took it well, though; while she knew that it’d get major play in the media, she tried to laugh it off.

“I went to dinner after the Super Bowl with Matt and I laughed about how I’d made myself into a Trivial ­Pursuit question: ‘In 2011 what female singer flubbed the lyrics to the national anthem?’” she remembered.

The Matt, of course, is Matthew Rutler, her new boyfriend. She met him on the set of her film debut, the ill-fated “Burlesque,” and soon after, announced her divorce from husband of five years, Jordan Brattman. To hear her tell the story, the split was mutual — and mutually sinful.

“At one time or another,” ­Aguilera she said, alluding to affairs, “we were both not angels. It got to a point where our life at home was reminding me of my own childhood. I will not have my son grow up in a tension-­filled home. I knew there would be a negative reaction in the press to my divorce, but I am not ­going to live my life because of something someone might say. That goes against everything I sing on my records. I have to be myself.”

And speaking of “Burlesque,” in which she, for the first time, wasn’t playing herself, she doesn’t regret making the movie, even if it failed. Because she didn’t.

“I was sad, but I’m still glad that I did the movie,” she said about the film. “During production, I was going through a lot of self-discovery. As a quote-unquote pop star, you have your entourage with you at all times. When you enter and leave a place, backstage, even at home—you always have your team. On the movie set, I didn’t have anyone around me. And it felt good. When I first met my husband, I needed that ­helping hand to take the reins and look after me. After the movie, I grew out of being that little girl: I became more of an adult.”

If his name doesn’t ring a bell, well maybe his body will. Cam Gigandet has graced the silver screen with his wonderful bod via Burlesque with Christina Aguilera. That was the movie where he wore nothing… and only a box of cookies covered his goods.

“[The cookie box] actually was my idea — I’ve got to take credit for that,” Cam told Billy Bush and Kit Hoover on Wednesday’s Access Hollywood Live. “I love to get naked on set. I’m surprisingly more comfortable in [the] sock type of thing… because you’re kind of like, really vulnerable, so why not just go with it? So, it’s easier.

But how up close and dirty will Cam get?

“The next thing is porn, but I just can’t — there’s no storyline there,” he jokingly continued.

Cam, who rose to fame as tracker vampire James in 2008’s “Twilight,” said his washboard abs have gotten a bit softer now that he’s in high Hollywood demand.

And fellas… if you want to get a hot bod like Cam, here’s what he has to say: “I didn’t work a lot, so I went to the gym a lot,” Cam revealed. “So once I started working, everything else kind of fell to the wayside.”

So where can we see Mr. Gigandet?

Cam can currently be seen in the sci-fi thriller, Priest – alongside Phil Collins’ daughter, Lily Collins, along with Paul Bettany, Christopher Plummer and “True Blood” star Stephen Moyer – in theaters now. Check him out! (Literally).

I’m totally bummed I missed the first episode of ‘The Voice’ this week on NBC, from what I hear it was amazing!

Vocal coaches Christina Aguilera, Adam Levine and Cee Lo Green helped NBC score a ratings hit (and they need it!).

More good news for NBC: Even its repeat of The Voice performed strong. Wednesday night’s two-hour encore of Tuesday’s Voice premiere delivered a rating that was actually the network’s highest number in that time period in a month.

The Voice picked up another 6 million viewers — half its debut audience — and had a 2.1 rating in the adult demo. The show would have posted a 2.3 rating, because that’s what it had in three of its half-hours, but the program’s first half hour — and this is where it gets interesting — overlapped with American Idol. That part was only a 1.7. While Idol gained during each of its half hours, including the part that overlapped with The Voice.

Now, since The Voice was a repeat, we can’t read too much into this, but its probably fair to say these two definitely have some audience overlap.

Meanwhile, Idol (21.7 million viewers, 6.9 preliminary adults 18-49 rating) was roughly on par, while Breaking In (7.6 million, 2.6) gained slightly to rank as the night’s highest-rated comedy.

PICS (Fame): Christina and boyfriend Matthew Rutler arriving at Boa Steakhouse in West Hollywood last night.

Christina Aguilera stopped by the ‘Ellen Degeneres Show’ and opened up about her now-famous Super Bowl performance in an interview that will air today.

She said, “I had been singing that song my entire life.  I was the youngest anthem singer in my hometown of Pittsburgh, PA.  I sang for the “Steelers” when I was this big (as a child.)  I think 7 or 8 years old. I would sing for them. I think had a moment where I was at the “Super bowl” at 30 years old.  I took in the moment a little bit too much. Shoot me for appreciating the moment but here I am at the “Super bowl”…singing for a team and in front of the world. And remembering what it was like to be that young and look where I made it now.  And then it was like, oh.  That night I knew, I just made myself a Trivial Pursuit question…In 2011 what female singer, ya know, flubbed the lyrics.  It’s just insane. But I have a really good laugh about it and you get over things.  You get back up again and you just prove to yourself and to everyone you that much stronger.”

Gotta feel for the girl. I can’t image the pressure of singing the National Anthem in front of millions of people. It’s bad enough to mess it up – but even worse to be crucified in public for it!

You can see the full interview on Ellen today.
