The Christina Aguilera 2010 [MTV](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mtv-vma-whopper-meal) Movie Awards performance was a triumphant return after a successful tour, marriage and the birth of her baby boy. Before the name Lady Gaga was mentioned on a daily basis there was one queen of pop that really knew how to shock an audience -- it was none other than Christina Aguilera.

Performances are getting more and more risque by pushing the boundaries of what's acceptable and this was just another example of that. Christina not only had a [light-up, heart vajazzle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eye-bijoux), but there was a lot of thrusting and grinding.
