Christina Aguilera: Mom And Musician

Christina Aguilera insists motherhood hasn't affected her music.

The 'Beautiful' hitmaker - whose son with husband Jordan Bradman, Max Liron, is 20-months-old - insists it would be "unfair" if she changed her career or style just because of her family commitments.

Asked how becoming a mom had affected her attitude to work, she said: "There are a few songs that have been inspired by him. But as far as it affecting me creatively - like, I shouldn't be wearing that because I'm a mom - no. Because that wouldn't be fair to me.

"It's important to keep a strong sense of yourself when you're a mom. You're still you."

The singer insists it is important to carry on her life as before in order to set a good example for her son.

She added to Britain's Cosmopolitan magazine: "There's got to be a balance and I want to set that example - as the kind of woman I want my son to respect.

"And as an individual himself, I want him to set goals and feel good about whatever it is that makes him feel good."
