Christina Aguilera is Unrecognizable in These 20 Photos of 'The Voice' Star Way Back When

Everyone has that one photo that they look back on and think: "What the hell was I thinking? How was that possibly in style? WHY DID I PIERCE THAT?!?" If your name happens to be Christina Aguilera, you probably have hundreds of thousands of photos where you think those thoughts.

There's no denying that Aguilera is — and always has been — an unbelievable talent, but even she might cringe at some of these photos. After all, they in no way reflect the polished, lovely style that this lady is rocking today. Check out these photos of Aguilera from the early 00s that we're sure Aguilera is laughing about today.
