Christina Aguilera sure stays busy these days. Ironically busier than when her last album ‘Lotus’ was out. We digress…

Backed by her own troop of dancers, Xtina delivered a titillating performance of 2007 hit ‘Candyman’, which resides on her Multi-Platinum LP ‘Back to Basics’.

Not sure why Camp Ciara would be crazy to drop the ball on its promotion?
