After a ten-year hiatus, Christina Aguilera is back on the road.
The vocal wonder launched ‘The Liberation Tour’ last night in Florida and delivered in earnest.
Erected in support of her critically acclaimed comeback album of the same name, the trek’s first night saw Xtina sew together fresh numbers from the project such as ‘Fall In Line’ with much loved hits ala ‘Dirrty’ and ‘Fighter.’
Key moments from the sold-out Hard Rock Cafe gig include a wedding proposal, the debut of an unheard song (‘Wonderland’) and an emotional interlude during which the singer opened up about why she’s been off-stage for so long.
Check out the action after the jump…

Looks and sounds great!
That said, off urgent importance is an explanation for WHY she continues to pay ‘Your Body’ (her best song in over a decade) dust.
Here’s hoping it makes an appearance later in the tour.
In any case, welcome back Christina!
