Christina Aguilera does a Britney

A YEAR is a long time in showbusiness. Just ask Christina Aguilera, the tough-talking pop star who last year criticised Britney Spears for her regular refusal to don knickers.
"I say, keep your legs closed. There's a proper way to make sure privates are kept private," Aguilera said in an interview when Spears was snapped - yet again - with no undies.

"That's just my personal take on exiting a limo."

But those words came back to bite the heavily pregnant Aguilera last week when she made her own undignified vehicular exit in front of the cameras.

Aguilera, who also recently sniped in an interview that she would be a better parent than Spears, joins a shame file that includes Paris Hilton, D-grade actress Tara Reid and troubled party girl Lindsay Lohan.

Recovering cocaine addict and supermodel Kate Moss, eccentric British fashion designer Vivienne Westwood and faded Australian pop singer Peter Andre's "glamour model" wife Katie Price have also been photographed without underwear.

There are several theories as to why so many famous young women are being snapped with no underwear, to the extent that paparazzi photographers now routinely shoot photos from the ground up.

Stylists hold that some outfits are so tight that any underwear creates the dreaded "VPL" -- or visible pantie line.

But others, such as celebrity blogger Perez Hilton, have accused Spears of wearing no panties deliberately in order to get publicity.

"She wants the picture taken. She wants the publicity. She wants people talking about her. That's what people love to see more than anything. Why do you think celebrity sex tapes sell so well?" he says.

A friend of Spears, jewellery designer Tuesday Knight, was last month quoted by In Touch magazine explaining that Spears simply didn't like underwear.

"Not wearing panties is ridiculous - and I've told her!" she was quoted as saying. "I've said, 'You can't walk into a store wearing just a shirt with your underwear off, or get out of cars baring all.'

"Britney knows it's stupid, but says she just doesn't like to wear underwear. She doesn't feel comfortable with it on."
