Christina Aguilera had a bittersweet Tuesday night, saying farewell to The Voice while ringing in her 32nd birthday.

But on Saturday, there was nothing bitter about the "Your Body" songstress' surprise birthday bash.

Aguilera headed out of her Beverly Hills home to run holiday errands and do a little Christmas shopping Saturday, a source told Us Weekly. In the meantime, boyfriend Matt Rutler and a few close friends quickly set up decorations for the surprise party.

Guests to the fashionable fete - Aguilera's home was decorated in the same shades to match the cake - included Nicole Richie and Blake Shelton (wife Miranda Lambert was out of town), and featured a smorgasbord of finger foods, including mac n' cheese, mini chili dogs, deviled eggs and grape leaves.
