Christina Aguilera to make big-screen debut in 'Burlesque'

Christina_Jean_57078894_600 Christina Aguilera

has crammed a lot of living into her 28 short years on this planet.

From a childhood appearing on "Star Search" and "The Mickey Mouse Club," she went on to win four Grammy Awards, not to mention get married and give birth to her first child, Max Liron Bratman.

Plus, Aguilera has lent her famous face to Mercedes-Benz and Versace, among others, and her famous voice to an animated fish in "Shark Tale."

But believe it or not, despite her long and varied resume, Aguilera has never appeared on the big screen in the flesh. Until now, that is.

The songbird is set to make her big-screen debut in an upcoming musical called "Burlesque."

The story? Small-town gal moves to the big city of Los Angeles and finds work at a burlesque club. Meaning Christina will get to sing and dance in the flick too. Linked to the project are writer-director Steven Antin and producer Donald De Line.

Are you pumped for Xtina's big-screen debut?

I'm psyched about this news. Christina's not one to rush inot acting or do a crap job just cause it's something to pad a resume. Finally we get to see her do more. Tired of all the old faces on the movie scene, need fresh blood.

why would anyone be excited. WHo cares. WHy do you all make a big deal about these people.. Ya she can sing. Maybe she can act? No nobody with a life cares.. case closed.

Let me guess, she sings in a burlesque show but doesn't strip...right? I'll skip it.

I LOVE CHRISTINA AND IM PREETY SURE SHES GONNA BE AMAZING ON THE BIG SCREEN
