Christina Aguilera Rewears Vintage Versace Dress 22 Years Later
Christina Aguilera has us seeing double! To celebrate the West End premiere of Burlesque: The Musical at London's Savoy Theatre, the multi-hyphenate, 44, attended a photocall for the show on Monday, July 21, wearing a gothic glam look she had previously worn 22 years ago. The singer dressed for the occasion in a green Versace dress from the Italian fashion house's fall 2003 collection. Aguilera served as the model for the look back then, posing bare-faced for a campaign shot by famed photographer Steven Meisel. In 2003, Donatella Versace, who stepped down as Versace's creative director after nearly 30 years to become its global ambassador in March, opened up about what it meant to have Aguilera be the face of a campaign for the brand. 'I watch the videos of Christina and I always die. She is a great dancer, a great singer, her voice is amazing. I always hoped I could do something with her, but I wanted to be friends first, that is the most important thing for me," Versace said at the time, per Billboard. This time around, Aguilera put a sexy, rocker spin on the famed corset lace number, wearing her long, straight platinum blonde hair gently pushed back as it fell over the dress's sweetheart neckline. Aguilera paired the asymmetrical design with black knee-high boots that matched her dark lipstick and eye makeup. That same year, she also wore Versace to the MTV Europe Awards. The performer's iconic green Versace dress has been a favorite of many, including Beyoncé, who wore it to the 2003 MTV Movie Awards. Rita Ora wore it to a 2020 New Year's party and Iris Law wore it to a London Fashion Week Party in 2022. Bella Hadid also wore it to a 2022 event. It's no surprise that Aguilera was supporting Burlesque: The Musical as she famously starred in the 2010 film version, Burlesque. In it, she plays Ali, an aspiring singer who moves to Los Angeles to pursue her dreams and begins working at a burlesque lounge run by Tess (played by Cher). This time around, Aguilera is executive producing the stage musical, alongside producers Adam Paulden and Jason Haigh-Ellery, Sue Gilad and Larry Rogowsky, Steven Antin and Clint Culpepper. Some of Aguilera's tunes from the movie are also part of the musical.

More trains from Bradford Interchange to London are planned
MORE trains to and from London are expected to arrive at Bradford Interchange from December, along with extra services between the capital and Bradford Forster Square. The Bradford Interchange to Kings Cross route could get an extra two services per day when the next rail timetable change is introduced later this year, up from the current four-a-day frequency. The service, run by Grand Central, stops at Halifax, Mirfield, Wakefield, Pontefract, and Doncaster. News that there would be extra services on this route was revealed in a report going to West Yorkshire Combined Authority's Transport Committee on Wednesday. The report says: 'Grand Central are hoping to introduce up to two additional trains each way per day on their Bradford Interchange – Halifax – Mirfield – Wakefield – Pontefract –Doncaster – London King's Cross route, as against the current four per day – with the potential to introduce one of the two extra train-pairs sooner than December. 'However, it is not yet known whether their application for the relevant network access has been approved.' If network access is approved, the services will follow an increase in London services to Bradford Forster Square, introduced in May. Platform 0 opened at Bradford Forster Square Station on May 19, and has seen LNER increase the number of direct trains from Bradford to Kings Cross from two a day to seven a day. It followed a £35m investment from Government, and was expected to add £4m a year to Bradford's economy. The report to WYCA's Transport Committee says even more Forster Square/London services are likely in the December timetable change. The report says: 'LNER's Sunday services on the Bradford Forster Square – London King's Cross route are expected to increase, bringing them in line with the significantly improved weekday service.' The December changes will also see train times on the Skipton and Ilkley lines 'adjusted slightly' to accommodate the extra London to Bradford Foster Square LNER trains. Other changes to West Yorkshire rail services in the December timetable include: The introduction of the long-awaited hourly fast train Leeds – Wakefield Westgate – Sheffield, roughly 30 minutes apart from the existing Cross-Country fast service, throughout the day and every day. An additional 9.34pm Sheffield – Huddersfield service on the Penistone line on weekdays. The restoration of the two daily York – Pontefract – Sheffield trains on Sundays. The committee will also hear that there has been a shift back towards office working in recent years. Northern Rail says this shift has led to a nine per cent year-on-year increase in commuter travel.
