Pop star Christina Aguilera is set to guest star on CSi: New York in February (07).

The episode will feature a storyline about battered women, which is an issue close to Aguilera's heart - she grew up in an abusive home and is a major contributor to a women's shelter in her hometown of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

CSI Executive Producer Anthony Zuiker tells TV Guide magazine, "Christina's a fan of the show, and we're excited to have her. The episode will probably explore the topic of battered women."

The Ain't No Other Man singer isn't expected to play herself. Aguilera's music will also be featured in the episode.
