CHRISTINA AGUILERA IMPOSTER TAKES HANDS-ON APPROACH

LAS VEGAS (Wireless Flash) – Ever dreamed of being like Christina Aguilera but don’t have the voice to pull it off? Well, an Aguilera impersonator in Las Vegas says the starlet’s secret is all in the hands. Naomi Rodriguez plays Aguilera in the Las Vegas show American Spectators, and says the hardest part about mimicking the teen tunester is getting the hand gestures right. Although 25-year-old Rodriguez is six years older and six inches taller than Aguilera, she says they have a lot in common: Both are half Latin; both like Etta James and both “speak Spanish about the same.” So far, Rodriguez hasn’t been mistaken for the real thing but she admits some people look twice when she walks around with a make-believe Ricky Martin.
