While her father was from Ecuador, the New York-born singer’s mother, Shelly Lorain Fidler, has Irish, Welsh, German and Dutch ancestry.
Aguilera’s upcoming Liberation tour is a US-only affair and will be her first tour for 12 years.
However fans were hopeful her appearance in Dublin was in advance of a show in the city.
