NASCAR legend Dale Earnhardt Jr. didn’t shy away from sharing his candid thoughts on Christina Aguilera’s unusual body accessory.

Two-time Xfinity Series champion Dale Earnhardt Jr. followed in his father, NASCAR legend Dale Earnhardt Sr.’s footsteps, making his NASCAR Xfinity Series debut in 1996. Over the course of his career, he captured 50 victories across NASCAR’s top two divisions. While a Cup Series title eluded him, his father cemented his legendary status with seven championships.

The topic of music came up following Jimmie Johnson's driver acquiring sponsorship from one of the most popular boy bands, Backstreet Boys for the upcoming race in Las Vegas. The conversation further became about a comparison between Backstreet Boys and NSYNC before moving towards Christina Aguilera.

"I was more of an NSync girl and Christina (Aguilera) I like Britney (Spears) but I felt like she just wasn't as good of a singer as Christina was, so I always picked her but yeah I also liked how raunchy she was," said Amy [30:30 onwards]

Dale Earnhardt Jr. then pointed out Christina Aguilera's nose rings, which the former champion could not wrap his head around.

"I wasn't into nose rings I think Christine Aguilera had one of those, it's kind of weird. I always wondered like with a nose ring like how it gets all crusty and boogery in there, I mean it's in your nose like it's catching all your nose hairs[...] It just grosses me out to think about boogers getting hung up on it. Now everybody's grossed. Am I the only one that thinks about that when they see a nose ring?"

Following the announcement, Dale Earnhardt Jr. expressed that he was a big Backstreet Boys fan.

“A long time ago, I was riding down the street; back when you tweeted pretty much every thought in your brain. I was driving down the road, that song came on and I was like, 'Oh hell, I gotta tell everybody that I love this song. Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely' is a jam. If that comes on, I'm singing it!” said Dale Jr.
