People thought Christina Aguilera was pissed that Cardi B's shoe-throwing incident at the Harper's Bazaar New York Fashion Week party overshadowed her performance at the A-list event, but no! Xtina told Jimmy Kimmel Thursday night that her only regret is that she missed witnessing the fight!
The sexy chanteuse appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night in support of her new album Liberation, but she dished on the scandalous even saying she wishes she "would have seen this juiciness go down." Aguilera explained that she didn't find out about the brawl until quite a bit later in the evening: "My hairdresser was like, 'I think you're going to be interested in something that happened while you were onstage.' I was like, ''What happened?' Then I heard there was a fight that went down during, first I heard it was 'Fighter,' my song 'Fighter,' which was so appropriate. I was like, 'Oh, my God! That's genius! My music makes people feel, it's invoking passion and emotion!' But then I heard it was during 'Genie in a Bottle.' And then I was like, 'What is going on?' But I do, like, a Migos version, so I was like, 'Ooh, Cardi got excited with that!'"
And as much as she was down with her own gig at the Icons event, Christina said, "That's where the real show was! Damn!"
Another juicy nugget from Aguilera's Kimmel appearance is that the diva said she'd love to do a duet with former rival Britney Spears! Xtina said if social media had been a thing back when they were young, the two probably would have orchestrated a collab to "squash" their "beef." Kimmel immediately posted on Twitter, tagging both sings and writing, "@Xtina would like to sing with you." Watch what Christina had to say ...
It was a hard-fought race -- fancy bagels and all! Cynthia Nixon conceded defeat to incumbent New York Governor Andrew Cuomo Thursday and thanked her supporters for their passion: "While the result tonight wasn’t what we had hoped for, I’m not discouraged. I’m inspired. I hope you are too. We have fundamentally changed the political landscape in this state," the 52-year-old Sex and the City star posted in a series of Tweets after the polls closed on Thursday. “This isn’t just a symbolic victory. This campaign forced the Governor to make concrete commitments that will change the lives of people across this state."
Nixon called out Cuomo, demanding he be "accountable for the commitments he's made" during the race. She Tweeted: "these are real victories. Some people have called this #TheCynthiaEffect. I call it what happens when we hold our leaders accountable."
The candidate had plenty of celebrity support -- her SATC co-star Sarah Jessica Parker, comedienne Amy Schumer, Debra Messing and even Cardi B all voted for the actress and implored others to do the same.
Still, incumbent Cuomo led by 32 percentage points which Nixon actually labeled as a failing, saying anything less than a 41-point margin "would be a major embarrassment and significant under-performance for the two-term incumbent."

Don't you wish you'd been a random bystander when THIS happened?!
Justin Bieber and Jimmy Fallon went undercover for the late-show host's "Musical Photobomb" challenge in New York's Central Park, wearing hilarious disguises and lipsyncing to Bieber's hit "What Do You Mean."
It was party of The Tonight Show's first ever broadcast from Central Park and while Justin was spotted in NYC on Thursday, ahead of the show's airing, the bit was taped in August.
Because if this had been taped yesterday, Beiber MAY have been a married man!

Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin were spotted heading into a New York City courthouse today where marriage licenses are issued ... and Hailey was wearing white!
The young couple swore they wouldn't tie the knot until next year, but it looks like they may have had a change of heart.
An eyewitness says he heard Justin crying at one point and said to his fiancee, "I can't wait to marry you, baby," according to TMZ.
Another source told the web site he overheard Bieber telling a courthouse employee: "Thanks for keeping it on the DL." Yet another person says the guy issuing the license was a judge, which means JUSTIN BIEBER AND HAILEY BALDWIN COULD BE LEGALLY MARRIED RIGHT NOW!!!
And here's the last tidbit of "proof" that these lovebirds may have just gotten hitched ... a source tells TMZ he overheard Justin and Hailey saying they were leaving the country. #RomanticHoneymoon??!!

She's really holding out hope this romance goes the distance.
We caught Ben Affleck's Playboy model girlfriend Shauna Sexton leaving a medical building yesterday in LA, and when we asked her if she was eager for the actor to get out of rehab, she flashed us a huge smile!
The pinup has been waiting patiently while the Oscar winner gets treatment for alcoholism, and we kind of assumed this budding relationship was dunzo after Jen Garner's intervention, but apparently not.
A source tells X17:
"Shauna is desperate to keep it going. She's obviously starstruck by him, and thinks he's the sexiest guy ever. Ben has been reassuring her about his feelings via texts from rehab, so she's optimistic that it's more than a fling. Ben's camp would rather he be single and focus on his sobriety, but nobody can tell him what to do when it comes to Shauna. It's more lust than love on his end, but he doesn't want to stop seeing her."
This morning, we caught Ben and Jen going about their business in their Pacific Palisades neighborhood, with Ben being chauffeured to his house by a rehab counselor and Jen grabbing coffee.
We're dying to know what Jen G thinks of all this!

They are so cute together!
Nick Jonas and fiancee Priyanka Chopra enjoyed a romantic dinner date at Soho House in Malibu last night, and the actress looked picture perfect in a hot pink ensemble.
The youngest JoBro recently revealed how their romance first began during an appearance on Jimmy Fallon.
"We met through a friend, so we got connected first over text, and we started talking for a while and it was about six months before we met up in person. Now cut to we’re engaged, the story wrote itself,†he gushed.
"We met up again, I think five months ago now and it was kind of immediate and we sort of jumped right in and we’re very happy,†he added.
We can't wait for their wedding, and we're dying to know if Meghan Markle will serve as a bridesmaid!

We had no idea things were this dire!
In the wake of Mac Miller's tragic death, Justin Bieber's manager Scooter Braun has revealed that he was constantly concerned JB would suffer that same fate until he rediscovered his faith and cleaned up his act.
“There was a time when I would go to sleep almost every night — when he had the money to fly away from me — and I was worried every night that I was going to lose him. “I thought he was going to die. I thought he was going to sleep one night and that he would have so much crap in his system that he would not wake up the next morning," Braun confessed on The Red Pill podcast.
When he tried to step in and help The Biebs, Scooter was met with a lot of pushback, but eventually the "Sorry" crooner realized he needed to change.
"He used to yell and scream at me, and he wanted to put music out, he wanted to tour, but I thought if he did that, he would die. I think he made a conscious choice for himself to change. I think for a year and a half I failed miserably trying to help him, because for a year and a half he didn’t change … It wasn’t until one day he woke up and said, ‘Hey, I need to talk to you. I don’t want to be that person anymore,’†he continued.
"And he used to complain, and he used to fight it and that’s when he got into a dark place, but when he accepted his responsibility and took a hard look at himself and not what everyone was doing, that’s when he owned it and he got healthy," he added.
We're so confused... is the pop star sober now? What was he doing that was so bad? We need to know!
