E! News has learned exclusively that new parents Christina Aguilera and Jordan Bratman held a bris, the Hebrew baby naming and circumcision ritual ceremony, at their Beverly Hills home Sunday.
More than a dozen family and friends attended the gathering. Jewish rituals aren’t new to the Bratman family. In 2005, the couple wed in a Jewish ceremony in Napa Valley, California.
A bris is typically done on a baby’s eighth day of life, and sure enough, son Max Liron was born Jan. 12. He came home from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center earlier this week.
The ceremony formalizes the child’s name; his middle name, Liron, means “my song” in Hebrew. Fittingly, Christina is “already singing to Max,” we’re told.
Here’s hoping his melody rings out for years to come.
Mazel tov!

On the whole Jewish thing-... Christina was raised a Catholic but started to practice as a Jew when she wed Jordan in Nov 2005. It were a traditional Jewish wedding and she has said in the past that she will raise her baby Jewish.Makes sense since she's practically converted. I think it's her and her husbands choice.Only they know what's best for their son.
P.S. -I read that most babies now a days are circumcised anyways as it is healthier for the male child. It reduces amounts of infections in infants.
