Sexy singing sensation Christina Aguilera has been promoting her first feature film, the all-singing, all-dancing Burlesque.

The former Disney star has followed in the footsteps of her Mickey Mouse Club contemporary Britney Spears by making the move from music to movies.

In Burlesque, Aguilera stars alongside legendary diva Cher in a role that allows her to show off her impressive singing skills. She plays Ali, a small-town girl that heads to the bright lights of the big city to find fame and fortune in a burlesque club.

As burlesque has roots in European culture, Aguilera has said she would consider a sequel involving Morris dancing, the traditional English pastime, or Irish dancing, but she firmly ruled out the Macarena.

Burlesque hits cinemas Friday December 17.
