Christina Aguilera will be performing a tribute to Michael Jackson later this week. Alongside Marc Anthony, LL Cool J, Smokey Robinson and James Morrison, the singer will be featured in an hour-long CBS special entitled ‘The King of Pop: One Year Later’. The broadcast will air at 8am ET as part of ‘The Early Show’. Check out what Aguilera had to say about The King of Pop below:
“Music wouldn’t be what it is without someone like Michael Jackson. I remember going to my high school talent show singing ‘The Way You Make Me Feel’ and being a huge fan of his album Bad. I know all my dancers wouldn’t be behind me dancing if it weren’t for that.” {Source}
Remembering Aguilera’s thunderous tribute to James Brown at the 2007 Grammy Awards, this news is indeed very intriguing. However, Aguilera would do best to keep her trademark screaming in check because Jackson’s restraint and impeccable vocal technique were among the reasons for his position of high regard in the industry. The last thing anyone needs to hear right now is Aguilera clutter one of Jackson’s classics with her usual series of “ya ya ya’s” (her default vocal run). That is all.

Kool.
And yes, when Christina can’t hit a note she results in screaming “AHH YAHH YAHH AHHH YAHHH.”
What are people complaining about now? Trent’s right, let’s hope Christina shows the restraint she’s shown on the new album at the event, and sings within her range unlike when she did the National Anthem
I agree with Trent. Christina better not butcher any of MJ’s songs with her unnecessary screams and grunts.
As a matter of fact, I don’t want to judge a book by its cover but I don’t think this is gonna be a good idea. I can just imagine her butchering an MJ classic.
Hopefully she’ll perform with a group of other performance and not solo.
Trent you sicken me.. i mean really. A paragraph full of non sense.. i love MJ but “Jackson’s restraint and impeccable vocal technique” REALLY?? Jackson’s vocals is not the reason he’s held in high regard.. Why are you always the one to post Christina news?? NEXT
*other performers
GLEE IS THE NUMBER ONE ALBUM IN AMERICA BUT ANWAY WHY IS THIS FLOP STILL PERFORMING GO BACK TO THE STUDIO AND GET YOUR S*** TOGETHER ONCE SHE REALIZE LADY BEYHANNA IS NOTING GOING TO LET HER BACK IN SHE’LL GO TAKE CARE OF HER UGLY BABY AND PICK UP HER SACKING TITS ON THE WAY OUT THE DOOR

MJ songs do not match her voice! shes gonna end up screaming like ~team weezy~ said
on the other hand i think shes doing this to promote her album! i mean she wasnt at the memorial last year when she didnt have a new album out
not hating just saying…
MICHAEL IS GOING TO HAVE A NIGHTMARE ABOUT THIS PERFORMANCE
Christina Aguilera’s ‘Bionic’ Is Officially a Flop in the US
Album sells only a little over 100,000 copies in a week
her album is out of the top 10 according to hitsdailydouble. shame on whoever invited christina to do a tribute for MJ. we don’t want to hear her screams and squeals over any of his songs. and it is selfish of her to do a tribute to him when she has an album to promote. talk about shameless promo. a lot of artists paid tribute to MJ last year and she was no where to be found.
karma is a b****, xtina.
FUNKTINA reportedly didn’t react well to news that photos of baby son, Max, proved a big flop for a U.S. magazine.
The Dirrty singer is thought to have secured a $1.5 million pay-day for exclusive rights to the first pictures of her little boy, but it seems that the issue of People – which ran the photos on their cover – failed to fly off news stands.
According to insiders, Christina responded to the poor sales with an almighty tantrum, during which she fired her manager, one of her assistants and PR firm, BWR.
“She went crazy,” says a source tells the New York Daily News.
DAMN EVEN HER BABY PICS FLOP DAMMMMNNNNNNNNN HOMIE
Is Christina Aguilera the biggest flop in the music industry?
Her ‘Keeps Getting Worse: A Decade of Flops’ has only sold 500,000 copies while Britney Spears Greatest Hits: My Prerogative sold 1,347,000 units in the US. HOW EMBARRASSING!
DAMN HOMIE
@BEYONCE VS. WORLD
LMAO!!
Despite getting down and dirrty in the songs music video, Christina Aguilera’s new single “Not Myself Tonight” isn’t doing much on the charts, only rising three spots this week to #46 on the Hot 100.
So far the ‘controversial’ music video doesn’t seem to be helping the dated club banger on the charts, but some added promo could give it the boost it needs when she performs the song on Oprah this week and then the American Idol finale on May 26.
The singer also has another Rolling Stone cover coming up, but that probably won’t hit shelves until the release date of her new album Bionic draws closer.
DAMMMMMMMMMMMMNNNNNNNN HOMIE
Lmao BVW is roasting Floptina
Trent is just a hater AGAIN lol she was AMAZING when she did the james brown tribute and she will be for this. Trent is just worried she will be awsome unlike Mariah at the memorial (and every performance since) lol
this is my fav website to come to to get all the new music but today is the last day im visitin this site cuz sam and trent r the biggest haterz im sick of them hatin on chrissy rihanna mariah ect. its annoyin if ur not kelly rowland or bey then they have nuffin but negitive s*** to say ugh im over this
This site and some of the commenters are childish who are you people ?There’s a fine line between critque and hating and u guys are really over on the line .There’s more to life then one’s Favorite artist there’s other artist you can support other than your fave ,Without disrespecting or downplaying an artist’s achievement all these artist work hard and deserve all their rewards and to make fun of an artist failures is petty and childish all artist has there ups and downs that shouldn’t take away their talent….. ease up on each other.
@ BEYONCE VS WORLD already what 6/7 posts……..wow………your doing well….
anyway I don’t see time for arguing in a post about the king of pop…….
just….. R.I.P MJ and your dearly missed……..
X
@FUTURESTARDELUXE OMG GOOD CALL……….
Mariah sounded atrocious at MJ’s memorial, I actually had to mute my TV, I remember……she came up with some excuse about how she was just so sad she couldnt sing………
puh—-leeeease………..
I’ve heard farts more in tune than Mariah was on that day.
It’s very odd to see Ciara and Janet Jackson(I Love her) fans complaining about other people vocals lol
LOL I love that Trent hates on Xtina and stans for ciara & Janet LMAO LOL LOL LMAO LOL t(the two most vocally challenged females in the industry)……those b****** get into a recording studio whispers there vocals into a microphone and call themselfes talented……smh…………
hey-ho……..
FUTRESTARdelux,
Can you ever defend Christina without bringing Mariah’s name up?? Geez. You stans are so pathetic.
They should add Chris Brown and Ciara to that lineup.
@SARAH1
the question you should be asking is can Trent ever bring Xtina up without throwing pointless hate!
no tea, no shade.
I Wonder what MJ’s song she gonna sing…
the upbeat or the slow ones…??! hmmmm
Christina got ya’ll minds! LMAO!
Thanks for the attention. All the hate is great guys, at this rate, people will start buying Bionic because of it. Thank you!
the line up sucks ass
Where are the true stains of Michael Jackson LINEAGE: Chris Brown, Omirion, Ciara, hell even Brittany Spears etc. ppl. Where are the ppl who have developed and grown around the MJ style. I guess we will get another year of BS MJ tributes. Poor MJ must be turning in his grave at the media’s nonsense! The same media who ripped him apart while he was alive.
MISS YOU MICHAEL JACKSON YOU WERE TRULY ONE OF THE GREATEST WHO EVERY WALKED!
Thank you Trent

*WHO OWNS THE THROWN?*
*YOU DO MOMMY!*
@ MR. M
LMFAO!!!!
Don’t worry!! Jackson family won’t never let the b**ches like Beyoncé or Rihanna sing MJ songs!! Impossible! MJ made MUSIC, not s***! Christina Aguilera is the better one to pay tribute to the KING OF POP! Sorry Beyoncé or Rihanna fans, your b**ches don’t have the level at all. Y’all keep hating on XTina because she doesn’t sell. But she’s the best. No voice match her.
Beyonce has huge thigh
she looks homely.
beyonce is well fed p** african refugee.
ugly huge “bee”.
i think bee is tiny, but this “beyonce” is too heavy for the nickname.
huh
@ KEESHA
KEEP WISHING. AIN’T NOBODY GONNA LET HIS DUMB ASS PERFORM. THAT’S AN INSULT TO THE KING. WHO WANTS A EX CON HONORING THEM? THAT’S LIKE SOMEBODY ASKING SUGE KNIGHT TO HONOR MUHAMMAD ALI. SURE THEY BOTH CAN KICK ASS BUT IS YOU SERIOUS? LOL
Trent is mad because he wishes people were saying “ya ya ya” when they saw that thuderous flop of a video by Kelly Rowland, and he’s mad because Xtina is what MOO MOOriah COWry
wishes she looked like. I think it’s such a shame that you resort to attacking Queentina just because she’s skinner than your fat ass idol Mariah.
<3 Christina not only snatcheds wigs but she also snatches the BBQ chicken wings from COWriah's plate.
Who mad?
lmfao
Michael would so proud to have us as fans. Rest In Paradise.
he would probably be even more proud and pleased to have Christina sing a rendition of one of his song’s.
I bet XXXtina would be Laughing her ass off at reading this and laughing at you, because you guys wouldn’t have the balls and wouldn’t be man enough to tell her what you just wrote, to her face. lmfao!!! you guys are a bunch of sour p****** and just negative Christina Fans, but i still like the blog, so thank you…
thank you, for amusing us, and keeping us coming back for some more BS…
with love from CHICAGO.
CHRISTINA THE POTTY MOUTHED FLOP IS GOING TO PAY TRIBUTE TO MICHEAL JACKSON? OH GOD. IAM SURE MICHEAL JACKSON WOULD NOT WANT A MENTION OF THE WORD FLOP ANYWHERE NEAR HIS LECACY. I FEEL SORRY FOR THE PEOPLE WHO ARE GOING TO BE THERE AND GO THROUGH FLOP TINA’S WAILING LIKE A CAT SHITTING BRICKS.
so christina will use MJ to sell her album????
@NO! britney spears cant perform because you know shes still on conservatorship even interview she dont have!
Boy have I got good some news for you (tone Deaf) Christina stains. Bionic pulled a Whooping 36,000 copies in Its 2nd week!! with a 76% Decrease. At this rate she’ll go Platinum… One day.
LOL @ “Aguilera would do best to keep her trademark screaming in check because Jackson’s restraint and impeccable vocal technique were among the reasons for his position of high regard in the industry. The last thing anyone needs to hear right now is Aguilera clutter one of Jackson’s classics with her usual series of “ya ya ya’s” (her default vocal run). That is all.”
LOL, I thought her trade mark vocal was that tired ass “whoooh whoooh” “ya ya yahhh”. LMAO I remember being bored & decided to put a Cpl new Xtina songs on my M** being impressed on some of her Beyonce-Like Lower Register vocals thinking her new found restraint is great for her & then went to listen to 1 of those God Awful uptempos & THEA VERY 1st Note was a HIGH PITCHED SCREAM, I was LMAO, Really Christina?? Here I was thinking she had left all that Screaming mess behind her (atleast half way atleast) boy was I wrong. Bionic is a Huge Disappointment, she will never recover especially with these horrible single choices, Why not release the very few good songs on your album as a single?? Im glad Its flopped cause Its horrible.
You people sound so pathetic, grow the f*** up. Shes performing weather you like it or not so deal with it. All you immature people talk about how much shes selling, get a life. As Ive said before if you dont like her, why do you come on articles about her????, and always check how much shes selling or what postion shes at???? Surely if you hate her so much, you wouldnt waste your time doing this. Do you really think she cares what you losers think???? I dont think so. Weather or not the album flops, shes still got fame, fortune, talent, and a good family. What have you haters got?????. Shes still is more relevant then you people will ever be. She was asked to do this, its not her fault, the people you wanted didnt get asked. Just get the hell over it.
I come here every morning & night to check on the music news around the world & I enjoy being here. You guys should seriously stop having a go at Sam & Trent. They have their feelings just as we do & we might not like their feelings but we can’t take them seriously. I say i that’s the way they feel about Christina, FAIR ENOUGH!
So Xtina’s meant to be a washed-up has-been who everybody else in the industry hates, but she’s still got enough power / influence to be able to force CBS to get her featured in this MJ tribute just so she can promote Bionic? Total cr*p – you can’t have it both ways – she’s on it because CBS wanted her on it not the other way around. Also why go on and on with the silly comparisons – what would it matter if one artist only sold 500,000 albums and another 20 million. High sales just mean your music appeals to a wider audience that’s all – you can have a good, long-lived career just appealing to a narrower audience – doesn’t make the music quality any less or more. I’d be more than happy having a row of reasonably successful albums so long as I had a fan base that appreciated what I was doing – anyone who didn’t wouldn’t need to listen – ‘simples’.
@sarah if christina doesnt bother that shes flopping why they will release a 2 songs all in once as a 2nd single???? if christina really doesnt bother that shes flopping she will release the wohoo as the REAL 2ND SINGLE… but no they will release you lost me so that her album will be save and the i hate boys!
I wanna see her doing :
“Diiiirtyyyyy Diiiiiiaaaaanaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa”
JJ did you even read my comment properly??? I said Christina doesnt care what people think, I wasnt talking for her not caring about the sells of the album, but she doesnt care anyway she doesnt need too, its you people that seem to be so worried and concerned about them having to do so much research on how much she sells. BTW I dont know about them releasing two singles, but if they are one would be for just Europe and the other for USA or Australia, there not releasing two singles in one country. Just because one album hasnt sold well, doesnt mean her whole career is a flop. Grow up.
@sarah STOP YOUR REASONS! its too OLD
SHES ALREADY FLOP!
Trent why did you single Christina’s name out????. You could of just put there will be a tribute for MJ. “However, Aguilera would do best to keep her trademark screaming in check because Jackson’s restraint and impeccable vocal technique were among the reasons for his position of high regard in the industry. The last thing anyone needs to hear right now is Aguilera clutter one of Jackson’s classics with her usual series of “ya ya ya’s” (her default vocal run). That is all.” You dont seem to say anything about the others who are taking part, just Christina.That was totally unessessary, if she that bad of a singer they wouldnt even asked her in the first place. Shes got the best voice out there, so deal with it. Your never gonna be Perez Hilton so stop trying to be like him. F****** loser.
“@sarah STOP YOUR REASONS! its too OLD
SHES ALREADY FLOP!”
Then if shes a flop why do you keep coming on here talking about her all the time??????? You must have lots of time on your hands. Go do something useful in your life instead of commenting all day on someone you hate so much. Its really sad, and pathetic.
@SARAH ITS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS IF IM HERE ITS NOT A FAN SITE ANYWAYS ITS A GOSSIP SITE. YES I HAVE SO MANY TIME SINCE ITS MY VACATION NOW YOU HAVE PROBLEM WITH THAT? MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS!
I MISS YOU MICHAEL!!! Why did you have to go?!? :'( He should be on tour right now!!!! Not in Heaven…not yet. GONE TOO SOON!!!! 🙁
JJ… you such a close minded!!! SMH
& I f you don’t like Xtina… just stalk your fav artist.
wasting your time oh her post is so unnecessary
@Sarah,
Yeah sure Christina doesn’t care what people think of her. Keep telling yourself that lie lol.
@JJ
What have Christina’s album sales got to do with whether she should pay tribute to MJ or not? Are we just allowed to pay tribute if we’ve got a recent platinum album? If you’re just going to have best-sellers on the list then the following were the best selling artists from last year:
Kings of Leon, Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, the Dave Matthews Band and Michael Jackson! I wonder how well Taylor can moon walk?
0beloved, you sound so f**king stupid! How dare you bash Chris Brown and say that MJ wouldn’t want an Ex Con performing his song when MJ was the one who WAS ACCUSED OF BEING A CHILD MOLESTOR?!! You just made an a** out of your self. Stop being a hypocrite and so damn ignorant. Are you a perfect angel, have you never committed a sin??? Stop being such a d***** and bashing someone for his faults WHEN WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN HIM AND RIHANNA WAS NONE OF YOUR DAMN BUSINESS! I swear, people are so noisy! It doesn’t matter what when on in their relationship, it doesn’t include you or anyone else so stop bringing it up your pathetic loser. Worry about your own life.
Anyway, why are they still having a tribute for Michael Jackson? Yes, he was a great talent, but that’s unfair considering all of the great musicians who have died over the years; they didn’t have this big ol tribute! What about Luther Vandross, Ray Charles, ect…? Christina, all she can do now is perform because her album has officially flopped and because she’s already accomplished so much in the past, it’s now the time when she’s fading away. It happens to every artist, Janet Jackson, Mariah Carey, Jennifer Lopez ect. That James Brown tribute she did was horrible! People just wanted to feed into the hype. All she did was scream and acted like she had soul. Joss Stone would’ve been better suited for James Brown.
@sarah and sundee! mind your own business!
^ atleast Sarah & I Mature enough… 😉
@Nate
actually MJ became successful with his brothers first for HIS VOICE, not his dancing or music videos or stage shows. Lots of people try to sing MJ songs and sound HORRIBLE. Why? They can’t pull them off vocally. Besides, the best part of the Grammy Tribute was MICHAEL’S VOCALS IN THE BACKGROUND

____________________________________________________________________
It’s very simple. Unlike Teddy Pendergrass, Luther Vandross, Ray Charles, etc. Michael’s global notoriety and dominance brings in RATINGS. The media doesn’t give a f*** about Michael & most hate him but he MAKES THEM MONEY. No disrespect to the other artists you mentioned but they don’t have the same legacy or commercial potential so they get ignored. It’s sad.
XTINA IS A POP ICON . IS GRAET SHE IS GONNA ONOR M,J. KING OF POP.
XTINA IS ONE OF THE BEST POP STARS . SHE IS PART OF POP REALTY.
The media needs to LET MICHAEL REST!!!!! STOP USING HIM FOR RATINGS!!!!!
Off Topic: http://blog.ideeli.com/stylepeople/2009/7/1/brad-pitt-hearts-michael-jackson.html
Now that’s funny 🙂
IM HAPPY TO SEE XTINA AS POP ICON HONOR THE KING OF POP. MJ ROCKS, XTINA ROCKS, MADONNA ROCKS, BRITNEY ROCKS, JT, ROCKS, THEY ARE THE ONLY POP STARS WHO RULLING POP MUSIC.
People, please stop disrespecting Christina & MJ for that matter. Live your lives and stop being so petty .
@0BELOVED
Please stop being silly. MJ admired Chris for his talent & even wanted to work with him.
Besides, people said horrible unfair things about MJ too.
“…the singer will be featured in an hour-long CBS special entitled ‘The King of Pop: One Year Later’”
CBS?? The same network that refers to him as f****** “Jacko” till this day. What a joke. Michael is truly better off out of this evil hypocritical pious world.
