I just want a solid album from Christina and a proper tour. The way YB was squandered, I don't expect her to have any top-40 radio success whatsoever.

OK, I get that you are a stan and stans are not particularly known for logic and ability to use restraint in arguments but... a) How do you know that feud was "very much one-sided?" Like I said, Christina had a stank attitude for quite some time. For the record, I have never read ONE negative thing about P!nk from other artists, legends or otherwise. b) How has P!nk done an about face regarding Christina? Has she ever denied her vocal abilities? I'm pretty sure she hasn't. Also, can you provide receipts that "deep down, she's still mad af" because I don't see it. Neither one of them are particularly known for their acting abilities and all I saw from both the standard footage and the behind-the-scenes gag reel were two women having a good time coaching young artists. c) Both Mariah and Queen MJB are on record regarding Christina's rude behavior...in the past. Hell, she even dissed Valerie Bertinelli when she told Christina what a fan she was. Like I said, it appears Christina has matured and mellowed, but let's not act like she was known as the Queen of Sunshine and Roses LOL. Let start...let's not get personal shall we. If you want to debate logic and fan sterotypes we can take it to PMs where you can be scalped privately. Your choice. A) It was one sided because Christina NEVER even mentioned Pink. If you accurately know your history you'd know they were very close during the pre-Stripped days and well after LM campaign. Pink he went to her 21st birthday party but for whatever reason they stopped f**king with each other. Christina hasn't mentioned Pink since Mizzundazstood. Also funny you mention Christina being a bitch but didn't Pink dedicate an entire video to Jessica Simpson and her other follow peers for "Stupid Girls" and didn't Pink JUST get into hot water for talking shit about Miley and others during last year's VMAS? Which she conveniently had to use her private account to escape the backlash but anyway..I think we know how that went. b) During Pink's last concert she hit a bad note and stated "oops...I sounded like Christina Aguilera". Now all of a sudden she's the "voice of our generation"? Receipts #1: Receipts #2: www.fuse.tv/2016/05/christina-aguilera-pink-feud-relationship-timelineActing abilities are objective but Christina has been rated higher. C) Ohhh Mariah :kii: Christina used to name check her ALL the time during the debut era but Mariah was a bitch and got her removed off Divas Live and VH1 moved her over to Mens Strikes Back as Mariah SEETHED at another younger female artist coming up. That's what started that feud. And Mary later apologized and said she was WRONG about the things she said about Christina and invited her to her charity event to sing "Beautiful". Receipts: www.justjared.com/photo-gallery/2539745/christina-aguilera-mary-j-blige-honors-concert-02/Now that you've been properly scalped....

I really really want her to go in the same direction as Back to Basics because this album was perfect from the beginning to the end. And Poptina is just bad, Lotus was worth nothing.

Damn man...your arms must get tired from carrying Max's backpack, but at least we now know that Christina is kind to her staff. Thank you for that enlightening post though.
Anyway, it's all love in Christina's thread and it's a beautiful day in NYC, so let's play nice! As a long-time fan of Xtine, I am ready for new music, no matter what it does on the charts.

LOL @ Christina being lead on a song that was already completed and on an album without her until she hopped on a "remix" which featured no new lyrics and in which she basically supplied harmony. I love the woman but let's not reach for the stars and fall flat on our faces, eh? A Great Big World wrote the song and sang the song quite competently on their own, and then, Christina heard it, fell in love, and was featured on THEIR song. End of story. That said, the version featuring Christina was the one that won the Grammy and was a top 10 on radio. If she manages that on her own, with a song either written by or for her, I will be thrilled. I still say it's entirely possible, depending on the strength of the material and her willingness to play the promo game. Also, I truly believe that Christina and P!nk buried the hatchet. If we recall, bonafide LEGENDS were telling stories of Christina's nasty, rude behavior. I think she has mellowed and matured greatly since those days, but, trust and believe, if P!nk still had an issue with her, we would know all about it. I like you.

Now lets all sit and wait for this Voice finale performance that could make or break her next era if she ever decides to release something.

#bosslook. I like how she realized there are different shades of lipstick out there in the market other than fire engine red. I know it's her signature look but I was just sick of it after awhile. It would also be nice for her to go back to brunette for a bit.

I can't believe she hasn't had a hit in 10 years. Time flies by. Speaking of things we haven't seen in over ten years, I must say, someone with a Britney Spears avatar coming into a Christina Aguilera thread to throw mud is such a throwback to the golden days, when stans of pop starlets were too young and immature to recognize a manufactured rivalry between two successful females being a product of our culture's sexism. Such a refreshing throwback. I really hope you're the kind that wears denim on denim, too.

Oh, sorry, I didn't realize the burden is on the defender, not the aggregator. My bad.
It's almost like the Pulse Music Forums version of victim-blaming.
Next you'll tell me I was "asking for it".

Not that it matters, but I think it's likely Blake has this season wrapped up on The Voice. But I'd be so happy if she won. I wonder if she'd quite returning to the show if she did win though, like Usher.

It all will come down to the final song.

XTina used to have the best manager and people behind her. Does she still have the same team? She always gets great promo spots, The Voice, features, movies etc. The Voices ratings have slipped some and she's not going to be on next season. I guess she could appear and perform a new song. However this season would have been better This season she has looked and sounded great and has still kept her "good attitude". I would think at least her management would have put a fire under her butt to get something out.

The Whitney duet leaked and she sounds INCREDIBLE. They keep taking down links but I'll post once I get the chance. It's all over Facebook.

This will be yet another missed opportunity to have a single out when she's at a great moment She's looking fierce! That pic with the new Voice look is everything Plus her team is ACE and she's done a pretty good job as a judge, including some honest and direct criticisms without being bitchy :)

Christina did great herself, I liked her vocals a lot - but I'm not here for these hologram performances of deceased legends; they're tacky as fuck (which is a criticism of The Voice, rather than Christina). I would have much preferred just a tribute from Christina herself.

Oh my goodness yes! She sounds spectacular! I was very happy with her falsetto and the softer notes especially.
I'm confused though...how come this isn't live?

Didn't like the hologram too. Just because we can do it doesn’t mean we should. Christina vocals are amazing.

Those. Vocals.
I was not prepared and couldn't believe some of what she was hitting. I know it was pre-taped and they obviously edited the best takes together, but JESUS. Her vocals on X6 are going to s**t all over every track on Lotus.
I'M READY.

Omg they cancelled it? Of course. I wonder if The Voice will upload to YouTube? I wonder how Christina feels.
