A deal between a U.S publication and Christina Aguilera over exclusive photos of her new baby has reportedly fallen through.

Insiders say that negotiations with OK! over rights to the first pictures of little Max Liron Bratman ground to a halt when the mag couldn’t guarantee a full-cover photo of Christina and her tot.

An industry source tells MSNBC: “Christina has an inflated sense of her own value and seems to expect an extortionate amount of money for these baby pictures.

"I'm not sure OK! or much of the industry thinks is a dollar figure that's worth it. ... She hasn't proven to be a real seller.”

It's claimed that OK! wasn’t prepared to meet Christina’s demands because the singer has a history of under-performing on newsstands.

According to the source: “The OK! wedding cover didn’t sell as well as they hoped, and even her recent Marie Claire cover underperformed, all things considered.”
