Belinda Carlisle-inspired name? Love it!

[Caviar]

It's been a DREAM of mine for her to perform at the iTunes Festival. Wishful thinking but I hope she's able to perform one year. It'll be the perfect re-introduction to the UK. I mean they took Bionic to #1!!

That would be amazing; I really miss Christina performing at big events like that.

I can't wait for new music, but if little Summer inspires ballads that are as flawless as All I Need/Little Dreamer, I am READY. :'(

Random tidbit, but a friend of mine who doesn't like Christina stans for " Express."

Get that praise, Queen <3

Is Summer Rain the album title or what?

[Relaxing Cup]

I think it's the title of her new baby. I love it!!

[Deleted]

What? I literally came here to say "Summer Rain" is a beautiful name for a album. I had no idea she was even pregnant.

[Ivy Leegue™]

[Deleted]

She was pregnant? Congrats! I'm glad she's finally a mother now.

[Caviar]

Kunt dear please stop with the trolling. She's been a mother since 2008.

MKOC finally scanned 1M!

[SHOOTER]

Why isn't JAF certified?

[darko95]

I think she really should get back to singing more R&B. It's her voice and career though, so that's her call.

WOW!! Thanks again musicguy!!!

Thoughts:

1. Damn, how bomb did Christina look in the Tell Me video!? I wish she'd do her make up like that and like in the Say Something video more often.

2. Woohoo and especially Your Body should have been much bigger hits. They were both such tunes!!!

[SHOOTER]

I think the TM look is my favorite Christina look.

The 33-year-old singer, who gave birth to new daughter Summer Rain just over two weeks ago, reunited with her ex-hubby Jordan Bratman earlier this week for a back to school picnic with their son, Max, in Santa Monica.

NEW PICS: E! Online

Photoshoot from her "WOMAN" (perfume) campaign this fall:

[Deleted]

She's had better. It looks a little too stepford wife meets Femme Fatale levels of stiff.

[MiniMusic]

I thought the picture with her holding a camera was actually an electric screwdriver LOL I was like WHAT is she doing?!
