I'm sure she'll release something next year and use The Voice to promote the single/album or whatever she puts out. She is taping the blind auditions in october.

I literally forgot all about her (I swear this is not shade). It's like she has fallen off the face of the earth. When was the last time she put out something new?!

I was wondering about this a few days ago, since I thought there were hints about it coming this year. It would probably be for the best if she waited until the Spring when she's on The Voice (and actually use that show to promote herself unlike with Lotus). Especially with Adele dropping a bomb this Fall.

Listening to "Stripped" is always such a treat - I love how it still feels as though it could fit on the radio today.

To know that she was once so capable and good at making great pop music, and how fast it all went south. Can't believe it will be a decade since she's had a true hit album.

"Back To Basics"'is Christina's magnum opus for me, but "Stripped" is great, too.
Two great albums with vastly different styles, but both are great in their own ways.
I don't really compare anything in Christina's career to those albums because (a) She can't top B2B for me, (b) she was in a great place personally and professionally when she made her two best records, and she was on terrible personal/professional footing with both "Lotus" and "Bionic."
I'm not sure if Christina COULD ever have full creative control again, but I have a really good feeling that now that she seems blissfully happy again, it will spill over into her professional life, and she will work her ass off to make HER version of a great record.
I had my reservations that she'd ever get her spark back, but now that she has, I think she'll fight for this album and give us somethng she''s poured her heart and energy into.

South African concert cancelled next month due to scheduling conflicts with The Voice. Fans are pissed and so am I. I feel bad for the international fans who don't ever get to see her live. She's never going to win the voice and always comes in last so I'm confused why she keeps going back. Sure it's a nice $15m check and exposure weekly but her brand is taking a hit. It's a zero sum game.
It's been 10 years since the BTB tour and 7 years since "Keep Gettin Better" peaked at #7 as her last solo ranking. Every opportunity has been squandered...MLJ, FTM, SS, Grammy win with no album launch following. She plays for these Reece's Cups employees but refuses iHeart and iTunes Music festivals. If you're not going to tour or put out an album at least promote your brand during these times.
It's frustrating as a fan. At least she was trying during the Bionic era but now she's sitting on her ass playing housewife.
I'll always be a fan for her vocal talent but I'm tired of being mislead over new music and canceled tour dates.
She tweeted 2015 would be new music and it's clear she's been pushed to 2016 to attempt to launch a project on that flop show.
Can't believe she's doing this 4 year album break again considering they all lasted a week. I'll do my best to help promote her events and other projects but eventually people will stop caring period.

I didn't know she was going to be on The Voice this Fall?
I agree, she nor any of the other female celebrities on The Voice will ever win that show. Maybe if they have a southern, country, white guy, but even then it's unlikely.

Christina will be back the following season which will begin taping this fall.
And she probably keeps going back to the show because it's probably a sweet gig for a Mom.

As much as I like Christina on "The Voice," she is digging her grave putting this show's check over her music career.
What's left of her fanbase might abandon her if she keeps jerking us around, and that's the last damn thing she needs.
Plus, Christina doesn't regularly perform or tour, so her voice is taking an even bigger hit than it already has.
She'll only exacerbate the deterioration of her voice if she doesn't use it, and that I can't get behind.
I can't imagine completely giving up on her (her earlier music is likely her peak, anyway, and B2B is my staple), but Christina ruining her potential can be blamed on BUT her.
I'd go as far to say I can't WAIT until this show is cancelled, so Christina can stop this s**t and get serious.

I wouldn't even say it's a check for her at this point. Just like Britney in Vegas, it helps them stay rooted in one place for family. Both seem more interested in family after being in the business since they were kids than releasing and promoting material.

I mean, let's be real, she's making a lot more money doing a season of The Voice than with releasing a new album lol

Who wouldn't want to work 12 hours for 3 days and get to spend the rest of the time at home with your kids while collecting a $15million paycheck for 3 months of work. It's the perfect job. Plus as long as she is on the show she will always have a form of exposure especially being on the #1 Music-Related Reality Platform.

Christina Aguilera is a random reality tv act at this point. She literally threw the towel a decade ago and now I dont think there's any way of coming back. Dont nobody is actually waiting on her. I jumped the ship

I jumped the ship I wouldn't say she "stopped trying" until "Lotus," and let's be real, artists putting out records they don't like becaus label disagreements, marketing, etc. is not uncommon. Say what you want about "Bionic," but she DID put a ton of work into that album, experimented a bit, and promoted the hell out of it, too. She's not gong to be a mainstream star again, but it's not like it matters anymore, she has MORE than enough receipts to prove she is widely respected, talented, and successful. People can drag all day long, but it still doesn't take away from all that she's been able to accomplish. She's earned the right to focus on her family at this point.

Exactly. No matter how many people want to hate on her, her legacy is cemented. She has stars of the new generation singing her praise with the Stripped album which seems to be the quintessential transition album for the new generation. Girl gets a Grammy during her off season with a one-off duet. She's not bothered and neither should other people.

I was just discussing her with a friend earlier and we both agreed that her legacy is intact, which is what matters the most at this stage in her career. Yes, it would've been nice had her last two albums been more successful but neither were the kind of "flops" that ruin careers. She can be "lazy" and ride The Voice wave as long as she likes but make no mistake, the world still adores and respects Christina Aguilera as an artist.

Pauly Shore of all people to get this info I met him once during SXSW and it was the most awkward experience of my life. He was in the back of a bar in the arcade section and he was coked out as all hell. It was just me and him cause I went to the back to go to the restroom and nobody knew this section existed. It was the most awkward 10 minutes of my life with him wanting me to come to his comedy showcase.

He has SERIOUS space issues so I doubt somebody got close to that white horse booty. He wouldn't let anybody within 2-3 feet of him when my friends came around the corner. He had a freak-out episode that would be news worthy
