CHRISTINA SHOPS FOR TOYS FOR MAX DURING HER STAY IN NEWPORT

Newport's been abuzz the past few days as locals have spread the news of Christina Aguilera sightings throughout the city.

The singer and actress, who is currently promoting her movie Burlesque, in which she co-stars with Cher, was reportedly spotted up and down Thames Street Monday night, including in Panera Bread, Goodies by the Sea, Life is Good, The Music Box and more. She also reportedly spent Sunday evening in The Fastnet Pub.

According to People Magazine, Aguilera is in Rhode Island visiting the family of her new boyfriend, Matt Rutler.

She, Rutler, a bodyguard and one other man shopped for about 10 minutes in The Music Box Monday night. In addition to purchasing several toys (which one could assume are for her young son, Max), she also walked out with Mariah Carey, Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra holiday albums, and with releases from Jay Z, Eminem and Rihanna. As is customary at the store, her pricey purchase earned her four free Rhode Island scratch-off lottery tickets.

Celebrating its celebrity customer, The Music Box staffers reportedly put on Aguilera's Christmas album, My Kind of Christmas, after she left.

We're not sure if she's still in town, but we'll certainly be keeping a lookout.
