Los Angeles, CA -- Christina Aguilera may have a reputation as a prima donna, but her choreographer says she's been given a bad rap.

According to Tina Landon, Aguilera is just misunderstood because she's so "sassy," but really, she's "...just a normal person with a different job."

Landon, who worked with the singer on videos like "Lady Marmalade," talks about training the popstar in a new book, "Cool Women, Hot Jobs" (Free Spirit Publishing).

Landon, says she figured out Aguilera's dance style by watching the "Genie in the Bottle" video and then kept in mind that Aguilera likes being "sassy and sexy" when dancing.

As a result, she says their sessions went very well.
