Christina Aguilera Doll

The Christina Aguilera Doll was released in 2000 by Yaboom Toys. The doll featured the likeness of Christina Aguilera, with different outfits from her concerts, apperances, photoshoots, and music videos. Some dolls could "sing" when a button on their bellies was pressed. Yaboom planned "talking dolls", but they were never developed. The other dolls were standard fashion dolls (see Barbie doll) made with help from Play Along Toys. They became a hit during the 2000 holiday season. Later on, the line was promoted less often, and was eventually discontinued before Christina released her 2002 album Stripped, with its more adult content.

In a radio interview, Aguilera said that she thought the doll's hair was too "poofy," and that they looked nothing like her. In another interview, she talked about how the doll was created, "I had to pose for it -- side views, back views, mug shots," she told Australia's Daily Telegraph. "Its weird looking like it. It's like my Mini-Me".

In Ecuador, there were Christina Dolls that had long hair. The dolls can still be found on Ebay. There was also a very rare mini Christina Doll released.
