The popstar dazzled on the red carpet ahead of receiving her honors.

Christina Aguilera was absolutely sparkling at this year's GLAAD Media Awards.

The popstar stepped out on the red carpet for the 34th annual ceremony at The Beverly Hilton in LA yesterday, March 30, where she stunned in a gorgeous black number.

She wore a sequined gown with a drastic v-cut over her bust, a lengthy train pooling at her feet. She accessorized it with a matching pair of full arm-length gloves that poofed out around her shoulders, giving the look a dramatic edge.

She wore her hair down, with the right side pinned back to show of her chandelier earrings and layers of sparkling choker necklaces. She also wore a bold shade of berry red on her lips and a thick wing of eyeliner to complete the look.

Aguilera enjoyed a few sassy moments with the photographers, catching one camera out of the corner of her eye and sticking out her tongue in a shot that narrowed in on her makeup, showing off the smattering of face gems she had lining her eyeliner wings.

In another, she threw her hands on her hips, bumping one out to the side as she threw a kissy face to the camera.

“We all need to raise our voices if we want to live in a world that's free of discrimination, hate, and violence," she encouraged in her acceptance speech. "My greater purpose is to use the platform I have to change lives for the better."

Bad Bunny and Jeremy Pope were also honored for their work "championing queer visibility in Latinx culture" and "breaking barriers across multiple industries as an out-LGBTQ media professional," respectively.
