Christina Aguilera Fragrance Ad Dubbed Soft Porn

If the UK’s Mail Online is calling the new Christina Aguilera fragrance commercial “soft-porn,” they really ought to get out and surf the internet a bit more. Describing Aguilera in the ad as “showcasing her ample cleavage in a very low cut dress and writhing in a chair in ecstasy as she sprays the perfume across her chest,” Mail Online thinks, “the singer’s ad may be a bit too risque for her younger fans.”

While Aguilera does reveal her ample assets in a low cut dress, her movement and demeanor are hardly anything close to soft porn. If so, porn has gone soft in its old age. She’s hardly pushing the boundaries of decency as mail Online claims.

The ad touts Aguilera’s fifth fragrance, Royal Desire which follows the release of her last fragrance, At Night, a year ago.

Aguilera has done far racier fare in year’s past. Look no further than the work she’s done for Skechers, Virgin Mobile and Virgin Atlantic.

In this ad all Aguilera does is enjoy a royal moment in her royal chambers with her Royal Desire. No one need get their panties in a bunch over this one.
