Playing Tomorrow: Christina Aguilera

Tomorrow night, a possibly pregnant Christina Aguilera will perform at the Shanghai Grand Stage. Since May, Shanghaiist has been looking forward to this extravaganza and now that we bought our tickets (thanks Taobao!), we are as happy as a clam!

Based on her previous stops in her Back to Basics tour, the setlist should look something like this:

1. Ain't No Other Man
2. Back in the Day
3. Understand
4. Come On Over Baby
5. Slow Down Baby
6. Still Dirrty
7. Can't Hold Us Down
8. Video Montage: I Got Trouble
9. Makes Me Wanna Pray
10. What a Girl Wants
11. Oh Mother
12. Enter the Circus/Welcome
13. Dirrty
14. Candyman
15. Nasty Naughty Boy
16. Hurt
17. Lady Marmalade
18. Video Montage: Thank You
19. Beautiful (Encore)
20. Fighter (Encore)

Although Chinese censors approved Christina's tour in mid-May, Shanghaiist wonders if the Shanghai audience will get the chance to enjoy Christina's song, "Nasty Naughty Boy". As the song's title and lyrics suggest, this song is quite provocative. And so is the live performance. When Christina performs this song in concert, a man is dragged onto the stage, groped by scantily clad women, and erotically teased with multiple whips (...sounds a normal day for a "sexpat", right City Weekend?). If you can't go to her concert tomorrow, check YouTube for concert footage from past stops on Christina's Back to Basics tour, including this video of Christina performing "Nasty Naughty Boy".
