Back again

Christina Aguilera's Super Bowl flub, Grammy slip and recent arrest for public intoxication don't seem to have scared the pop diva straight.

Us Magazine reports that the soulful singer and her boyfriend, Matthew Rutler, were out drinking again at LA's Osteria Mozza, the same restaurant where the two were downing drinks before the pair were arrested for public intoxication on March 1.

A source at the scene alleges that Aguilera "acted as if the arrest never happened," sharing two bottles of wine with Rutler at dinner.
The 'Burlesque' star, who filed for divorce from hubby Jordan Bratman in October, has allegedly been over-imbibing since beginning her relationship with Rutler, leading many to wonder if he's a negative influence.

Friends have reportedly begged Aguilera to attend rehab for her alleged alcohol problem, which leads to the star getting "nearly fall-down wasted nearly every night," but their pleas have fallen on deaf ears.

A source adds, "She should see the arrest as a wake-up call, but she doesn't. She doesn't think things are that bad."
