Thank God Larry King hasn’t become irrelevant. Those that claim the once great interview is now nothing but a hack are clearly misinformed – I mean he had political heavyweight Christina Aguilera on his show last night for goodness sakes! Christina had a lot of deep and original thoughts to get off her ample chest – like how important it is to vote, and how she’s getting really, really old.

Credit Christina Aguilera’s newborn son Max with getting her involved in this year’s election. “Being a new mother, it was really important for me to get excited about this election,” she told Larry King during an interview Wednesday about her involvement with Rock the Vote. This election “is such one of change and new development for our country and for the future of my son,” she added. “I want the best possibilities for him.”

Aguilera — who would not reveal which candidate she supported — told King, she registered to vote “as soon as I could” but admitted she didn’t “exercise that right until the last election. I grew up in a house where politics weren’t discussed,” she explained. “It was a hopeless situation. As a woman, that’s embarrassing that it took [me] so long [to vote] because we weren’t always given that right,” she said.

As for why other young people don’t vote, she said maybe they feel politics “doesn’t affect them” and they think it will matter to them “later on down the road. But time goes quickly,” she cautioned. “I’m already 27.”

27? Holy crap that’s unattractive. She’s just a big bag of dinosaur bones. I kid, I kid. I sometimes get annoyed with all the celebrities when they do the whole “get out and vote” thing because it’s generally a bunch of people who don’t seem to care about anything – except every fourth year, when that’s what they’re supposed to say.

If a celeb that’s often supporting social or charitable causes says it, I think it’s great. But when Heidi Montag and Paris Hilton tell me I should vote, I want to tell them they should go pop a Valtrex and shut up. Man I’m cranky today. Larry King always puts me in a bad mood. With that face of his. I’m going to stop now.

Here’s Christina on “Larry King Live” last night. Video thanks to RedLasso.
