Christina Aguilera Wants Wedding Gifts Donated To Charity

October 21, 2005

Pop star Christina Aguilera is asking friends and family attending her wedding not to come bearing gifts. When she marries Jordan Bratman, Aguilera wants the wedding guests to give the money to charity.

On an ornate card, sent out with the invitations, the couple wrote, "While we celebrate the richness of life and all the circumstances that have blessed us in career and love, we are mindful of those who are suffering greatly as a result of hurricanes Katrina and Rita.

"The best gift you could give us is a donation to any of the organizations helping the stricken citizens of New Orleans."

The singer is scheduled to marry her fiancé, 26 year old music executive Bratman, this Christmas. The two have been dating for two years. Bratman gave Christina a $54,000 20-carat diamond engagement ring.
