i disagree Christina appeals to teens as well, to say that they don't know who she is would be plain ridiculous. She appeals to many people.Apparently not, given her impending flop. that has more to do with radio, that still does'nt mean anything, there were plenty of teens on ido that kne who Christina was. Quit with the excuses, and while Glee has good sells, it's nothing like wow. But they probably will be in the thick of things. People need to stop trying to be negative from every angle.

Because the listener reaction was mostly negative. And it has a lot to do with downloads also apparently, MNT did not sell well.

If you lined up 100 12-15 year old girls and ask them who Christina Aguileera is and who Glee is im damn sure verybody is gonna know the GlEE stars because its a bigger name in America rite now. Christina is losing her relevance because shes always taking 4 years to reinvent yourself. She doesnt realise that 4 years are a generation. A new crop of teens are out. 4 years is the amount of years in high school. ICYDK ppl will eventually move on. Well she's just not trying to please teens, like i said they know who she is. How can u compare Glee to a Superstar lol. That just goes to show u how big she is, by u comparing her to a huge show thats out on tv now. She's living outside of the entertainment world, and rightfully so. She does'nt make music for teens if they like it then great. She has a very wide fanbase. So i ain't buying it, i bet u alot of them would know who she is.

^^ not much else to say apart from.... wrong. Glee is a much stronger force than Christina Aguilera at the moment. Simple fact.

Her tour was just canceled on the back of abysmal sales, her first single tanked on the radio and digitally, the album is predicted to have disastrous first week sales, and like I said before she's not all over the tabloids like many other stars during periods of music floppage. Nobody is checking for her. I don't disagree with your last sentence, though, lol.

I'm surprised AMG gave the album a strong review. They creamed themselves over B2B but lambasted Stripped. Bionic is much closer to the latter and the high points on Stripped were stronger, IMO. I'm surprised too. There is so much hate on this board for her that you would think the general public and reviewers would feel the same way, but apparently, they don't. Either they are just OK with this album or they really like it and get what she is doing, so I'm happy, at the end of the day. Stripped didn't deserve such a low rating but as the years have passed, VERY little of the album holds up. The only songs I feel myself playing are Beautiful, Walk Away and Dirrty and even those I don't play too often, honestly. This will probably be the album that gets the most replay from me. I like sonic journeys and I like strong production (I don't care if people say it sounds outdated; but it needs to be full of details and almost baroque). On top of it, I love Christina's voice and I like that she is doing different things with it here. I can't believe there are only 2 days before I get to hear this album!! AMG's stripped review was spot on.

What the helllll is she wearing. I feel like spamming her email or website or twitter or whatever with pictures of when she looked hot and go LOOK IT ISN'T HARD AT ALL. It looks like a cheap prom dress. A lot of the people there look bad though. A glitter jumpsuit? Really? Being a size 2 and wearing a floral dress so unflattering you look like a size 10? Okkk. Bad wigs galore too. I only liked about two total dresses on the red carpet.

Off the top of my head I honestly cannot think of an awards show look I liked less than this. Like I said, cheap, ill-fitting, not hot at all, and a cross between a Halloween outfit/100 dollar prom dress=NO. I liked a lot of her "odder" choices though-like, the feather dress. I thought that was fun, quirky, and her body looked awesome in it. I know a lot of people hated it though.

Yes, her first week sales will likely be weak. There is no reason to think she will open strong. No, but Billboard mentioning her after something in an article or rumored low pre-orders from Amazon or whatever, doesn't mean 'disastrous first week sales have been predicted'. You might predict them based on an educated guess, but pressed spinning isn't going to make it so.

PDC, why are you bothering with these silly little plebians? Anyone who thinks this album will sell well after it's lead single went top 10 in zero countries and the only hype the project has managed to muster has been negative and related to Lady Gaga ain't anchored in reality. Or one of the crusty roach males who are into other males from LD. We will be throwing eggs in they faces and collecting insurance on their wigs come Wednesday.

I love Johnny!!!!
Her face isn't terrible to me, but holy crap that dress. It almost makes me angry I dislike it so much! And I usually love her red carpet fashion. I will throw things if she wears anything like that during her performance. I will catch it on youtube later because no way I am sitting through ANY of the MMAs.
