Christina Aguilera, who will release her new album 'Lotus' in November, covers this week's issue of Billboard. She looks soft and serene in a cozy cage-knit sweater, which is perfect for the just-arriving fall weather.

Billboard has shown a great deal of love to Taylor Swift by honoring her as its latest Woman of the Year.
