Billboard: Britney Needs To Work With Christina Aguilera

2. Christina Aguilera

Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears will forever be tied together as the female faces of the late '90s teen pop movement, Mickey Mouse Club alumni and best new artist Grammy nominees (Aguilera defeated Spears in the category at the 2000 ceremony). The two pop mainstays have long been perceived as frenemies, and although Aguilera recently impersonated Spears on The Tonight Show, she has yet to actually sing alongside Britney. Even if a collaboration comes 15 years too late, it still has to come, right?

Song Should Be Called: "(Party Like It's) 1999"

Christina wrote a blog for WFP! Such a heartfelt article urging all of us to donate time or money to hungry children in need! It's humbling that she isn't whoring herself around bragging about helping other but instead does it in such a down to earth way.

When My Children Read This in 10 Years, I Hope the Hunger Crisis Is History

Congratulations to Huffington Post on its tenth anniversary! Last August, just before the birth of my daughter Summer, you invited me to share my story on a subject very close to my heart - ending world hunger. I'm so grateful for that opportunity and thank you to the many Huffington Post readers who passed my story on.

Since 2009 after the birth of my son Max, I knew I had to do something to help other children and families around the world and that's when I became a volunteer Ambassador Against Hunger with the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) as well as volunteer spokesperson for Yum! Brands' World Hunger Relief effort. It's more than my story though, it's the story of millions of children and families around the world who need our help.

Last year, many of you joined me in sharing #PasstheRedCup to raise awareness for the global hunger crisis -- 805 million people, many of them children, go to bed hungry each night. And that red cup is a symbol of the meal millions of children will get through a WFP school feeding program.

Together we created a movement and millions of dollars were raised to support WFP programs. Since 2007, Yum!'s World Hunger Relief campaign has raised $600 million in cash and food donations, providing 2.4 billion nutritious meals for women and children around the globe.

The thing is, we have so much more to do.

I've visited WFP relief sites in Rwanda, Haiti and Guatemala. I've seen first hand the need. The sense of desperation in a mother's eyes as she holds her hungry child. I've also seen the joy. The faces of mothers and their children light up as they're served a meal through WFP. I've felt the joy that comes from handing a meal to a child who has no idea who I am, she simply smiles in appreciation of the meal I'm serving her. The meals that these children get might be the only food they eat all day.

It's a life changing experience to feed a hungry child. And we all have the power to do it. There is enough food in the world to feed everyone. If we all give a little more time and money, we can end global hunger as we know it. My greatest hope is that ten years from now, we can look back with pride knowing that the world came together to finally eliminate hunger.

I want my children, Max and Summer, to always appreciate what they have, but also to understand they have a role in helping our fellow citizens around the world to the basic need of food. I'd love for them to stumble upon this article and other hunger relief stories a decade from now and see that there is an end to world hunger.

"It's a life changing experience to feed a hungry child. And we all have the power to do it."

I know we can do it! Please help by donating whatever you can to the World Hunger Relief campaign at HungertoHope.com. Share this story with your friends and family and encourage them to get involved. Do what you can in your local communities to help combat hunger. Together, let's move the world from hunger to hope!

Beautiful.

So disappointed India was voted off last night, but Christina's remarks were so heartfelt.

[Ivy Leegue™]

Welp. Remind me never to come into this fucking thread when I am not caught up on the Voice. I literally just watched India's incredible flawless performance. #oop.

[Caviar]

I want her OFF this show so bad. Female judges will NOT win.

[saint]

I don't care if she didn't win I'm just sad we didn't get a duet this season. Her performances with Jacquie Lee and Chris Mann were stan highlights for me, just pure slayage.

[toomuchboy]

Second time she's lost she should've won, imo. Chris Mann definitely deserved it in season 2, and she had two of the three best contestants this year--India and Kimberly--and they didn't even make the finale. (Frenchie was my favorite after Javier in season 1; I still wish Javier had picked Christina...) I used to think it might be because Christina's personality can be polarizing, but Gwen Stefani is generally well-liked and Shakira was the sweetest person on the show, and neither made the finale on their seasons either.

At least she gets money/publicity.

YES. I'm so done with this show anyways. The better/more impressive singers have not been winning or even making it very far lately. Like that long-haired kid is clearly going to win no matter what he does, and I don't find him all that impressive.

[Deleted]

India was the first contestant I've ever rooted for on The Voice, but I'm absolutely done with the show now that she's gone.

It baffles me that despite all the incredible talent on shows like this, the audience continues to vote for the worst of the bunch. .

Here's to hoping Christina will forget this show and put the focus back on her career.

Clip of "Anywhere But Here" Out June 8th!

[Linnethia Monique]

I don't get the fascination with Sawyer at all. He was already charting before each show time and time again so I felt something was up. Koryn being in the studio with Pharrell this week with his background singer *Side-Eye* Whatever. I want her to skyrocket off of all of the great exposure and press she has garnered and give me a great era. Buck the trend and release a stellar ballad as a first single and snatch wigs and edges Christina Maria Aguilera!

[diciembre]

Jack Antonoff of the band FUN. mentioned Christina as an influence in a "Music That Made Me" playlist. The song Beautiful was #5 on his list and he said: "It's got this superclassic feeling. I can imagine Queen doing this song." Rolling Stone

Nice to see her influencing male artists as well. Some others that have mentioned Christina in the past:

PATRICK STUMP OF FALL OUT BOY:

The other guys in the band namecheck the Smiths, Pantera, Slayer and hardcore bands you've never heard of, but Stump big-ups jazz guitar virtuoso Joe Pass, John Prine, Tom Waits, the Small Faces, Prince, Jackie Wilson, Christina Aguilera, Ornette Coleman, Taj Mahal, Abba and Earth, Wind and Fire, among others, in the course of an hour.

Rolling Stone 

If Patrick could be any female singer, he says he'd be Christina Aguilera

TV

SULLY ERNA OF GODSMACK:

What music would people be surprised to know that you like?
I have a lot of respect for Eminem. Alicia Keys, she's fucking amazing. I love Christina Aguilera. I really do. Her talent is amazing. She's like a little Whitney Houston, ya know?

Rolling Stone

[MiniMusic]

What is Anywhere But Here for? A new album or what? Her voice sounds BEAUTIFUL. I love when she sings soulful and perfectly like that, wow. Slay me honey.

[Caviar]

Finding Neverland soundtrack.

[Caviar]

at Britney and Gaga!

[bunifah]

Im not even kidding. She has def changed her team and IS NOT PLAYING on staging this comeback! Damn she is pushing ALL THE RIGHT buttons! I love this

[Deleted]

She is not PLAYING with this comeback.

All these softer vocals, the impressions and her superb coaching this season.

She's doing everything right. <3

ABH is just stunning.

OMG, this is hellarious!

[Deleted]

I just died. She was fantastic on The thrill is gone... Best vocals I've heard from her in a long time.

[Mike]

She did not give 2 f***s in that performance lolol. Those runs..

[Caviar]

[inclinations]

I can't find a video, did she do better than she did at the NOLA jazz fest?

[Caviar]

The NOLA is the better of the two if only for the arrangement. Vocally she went N tonight tho.

[Caviar]

[Deleted]

Holy f*uck, she didn't PLAY!

Those VOCALS. :o

[Caviar]

[Albie]

Oh my gosh I love "Anywhere But Here"! The restraint and softness she is displaying.  

Please release your album now, this instant!

Those impressions LOL. Shakira was pretty hilarious and Cher also "is that my accountant?" but I literally died at Gaga and Britney! Ugh...this is too much.

She SERVED vocals on "The Thrill Is Gone" though. Like I literally can't even...anything, right now. I need this woman in the forefront right now! Oh, and she looked fabulous in that performance!

[Deleted]

Cher praising Xtina

The media is,(once again), showering Christina with praise.

E News, Vanity Fair, Elle magazine, Us Weekly, Marie Claire and Time magazine are all stanning for this new video.

I never thought she'd see this much goodwill from the press ever again. :'(
