Christina Aguilera is no stranger to fashion risks. If you ask her, she’ll gladly tell you that in each of her style eras, from Stripped to Back to Basics, she’s always approached fashion with reinvention in mind. Her looks for L.A. Pride 2022 were no different—on 11th June, 2022, the performer wore eight new looks, most of which were custom, and all of which surprised and delighted those who witnessed her hourlong show. From her Green Goblin-esque breast plate and matching sparkly strap-on, to her red Madonna-inspired cone bra which shot confetti at the crowd, Aguilera wanted to reference and embrace every color of the rainbow Pride flag.

“Chaps have always been so fun to play with throughout my career, reinventing them for different eras and concerts,” Aguilera said. “This is all about giving them visuals; it’s visual after visual of fun. There are props and pieces that really take it to the next level. There’s a moment where we’re referencing Tom of Finland, paying homage to his iconic work—to be free and expressive of sexuality and fantasy, which is all that I’m about,” she said of her Venus Prototype breastplate and sex toy accoutrement. “When I get to be expressive and free and live out my biggest, best fantasies is where I’m at my best.”
