Ever on the rebound, ‘Genie In a Bottle’ belter Christina Aguilera is bringing a new bottled fragrance, ‘Secret Potion’, to the masses. The follow up to her ‘By Night‘ and ‘Royal Desire‘ scents, the fragrance marks ‘Brand Xtina’s’ latest foray into fragrance.   With pretty much every diva who’s recently graced the Billboard charts also lining fragrance shelves (see:  Rihanna, Katy Perry, Britney Spears, etc), the Grammy winner joins a line of songstresses attempting to embrace consumers on ‘Black Friday’.

In a bid to get a headstart on the competition, today the pop singer unveiled the behind-the-scenes look at the sexy ad for the scent.  While we’ve already shown you the finished product here, see Aguilera in action after the jump:

Grammy winning, multiplatinum diva Toni Braxton is enjoying a reignited career with the monstrous success of WeTV’s ‘Braxton Family Values’.  No time to rest on laurels, the eldest Braxton daughter is under new management and already working on new projects – including an album, rumored Broadway shows, and possibly films.

Following the release of her sophomore set ‘No Boys Allowed‘, Keri Hilson has risen to become one of music’s leading staples- slowly but surely cementing her status as the current go to girl for mid tempo Contemporary R&B.

However, despite her undeniable success and new found notoriety ,she still finds herself coming under criticism for having what some might call an ‘off attitude’.

While we here at That Grape Juice wholeheartedly  disagree with that stance (she’s nice to us every time we see her), there are some who- quite unfairly- put their dislike for  her down to her alleged ‘beef’ with fellow belter Beyonce.

Now peep this video sent to us by a reader this evening and let us know what you think about it…
