Christina Aguilera has revealed that she did not want to watch her own performance in Burlesque.



The singer, who stars opposite Cher and Kristen Bell in the film, said that she was intimidated by the prospect of working alongside seasoned actors in her big screen debut, WENN reports.

Aguilera said: "I'm very critical of myself. I had to drag my feet to even see the screening of Burlesque.

"First of all, it's my first big movie. I'm starring in it opposite Cher, Stanley Tucci, Kristen Bell, you've got all these amazing players in the movie and then there's me - a first-timer."

She continued: "I opened up and gave my all to it but it's so hard - I don't even watch my own performances back when I am in my comfort zone on stage and on tour - once it's out of me and done I have to let it live in the universe 'cause if I watch it back I will critique myself to death."
