Singer and new mom Christina Aguilera is having a tough time selling photographs of her new son, Max, to magazine. We’re guessing he came out like his dad:

Don’t expect to see a photo of Christina Aguilera’s baby on the cover of any magazines this week. Sources say that after months of negotiating, a deal between Aguilera and OK! magazine came to a halt because the magazine couldn’t guarantee a full-cover photo of Aguilera and baby boy, Max.

It might seem surprising that OK! wasn’t game to play by Aguilera’s rules, considering the mag ran Aguilera’s wedding photos, but a magazine insider points out that the singer performs well on stage, but not so much on newsstands. “The OK! wedding cover didn’t sell as well as they hoped, and even her recent Marie Claire cover underperformed, all things considered,” the source said.

Duh! It’s not like Christina is out dancing on banquets, snorting coke or making sure the general public is well acquainted with her labia majora. No one wants to read about a happy, well-adjusted celebrity with a good home life. Unless she’s a happy, well-adjusted celebrity with a good home life who hates being called a Latina.
