Christina Aguilera and the promotional machine behind her movie debut ‘Burlesque’ have pulled out all the stops in ensuring the film opens to big box-office numbers this Holiday season.
After three days of playing to theatres across the US, the projected numbers for the movie’s first week figures ($) have surfaced.
Find out whether Ms. Aguilera’s recent career troubles are to be erased or further worsened after the jump…
According to Deadline, ‘Burlesque’ grossed $2.8 million on its first day of release last Wednesday; with the Thanksgiving weekend boost seeing industry projections placing its final 5-day Holiday run at #3 with $17.8million.
The movie’s predicament needn’t give fans nor critiques reason to celebrate…yet. For, the Screen Jems / Sony produced musical sits in somewhat of an indeterminate position. Put simply, the situation is neither black nor white; more a cloudy grey as at writing.
Why, you may ask? Well, ‘Burlesque’ cost the studio $50million to produce, hence in order for it to be pegged the hit Aguilera needs it to be, this figure (and then some) will need to be made back at the box office. Rare is it for a movie to recoup its entire production budget during the first week on show; rather ‘Burlesque’s’ success is dependant on its performance in the weeks ahead.
With an international release due next month and a string of promotional spots ahead, it’s all still to play for…
Another flop for her. So sad.
Shows you don’t know anything! Definitely not a flop.

Great movie..worth the money…she has great acting skills!!!!!!
i watched the movie and its kinda boring i didn’t like xtina acting and i don’t think this going to flop may be 30 mill overall
Maybe she should just be an actress? she’s a good at it. it would be ashame to see her voice go to waste though
LOL stop throwing shade, that’s good and when it goes international it will surpass expectations. Everybody that’s seen it has said it’s great so…
Sorry that XTina rained on your (hate) parade lol
FLOPTINA ALWAY IS FAILING IN LIFE HAHA!
This movie is really boring. It didn’t have the chrisma that were shown on the commercials in the Cinema Bahahaha
Assuming the projection’s right, that really doesn’t seem bad to me for a musical with an untested leading lady competing against both Harry Potter and Disney. Even her hardcore fans haven’t been predicting a smash (well, except the really psycho ones who are best ignored anyway) lol
I doubt they’ll be too disappointed – that’s nearly 1/3 of the budget back first week and they’ll pull in enough worldwide to cover it.
“Burlesque” is still ahead from “Love And Other Drugs”
which estimate $15.5M.
Is $17.8 is a bad number for Burlesque?!
(who has the most hatred girl that is Christina Aguilera)
Nope
@G.Lasalle & Icon:
You called this flop? based on what?
being top 5 on the Box Office?
Btw, the last i see it’s at #4. But well, Congrats to all the Team.

& I Bet some of her haters see this movie, they enjoyed it
BUT… still say bad thing in here.
Its a musical and to be on #3 is a hit !!!!
the soundtrack is No3 on US Itunes.
^Nope, the OST. now is at #5 🙂
With a $55 million budget ? Yes hun, I call that a flop. They couldn’t even make a third of the money back in the first week. That’s not a good luck, especially with the amount of promotion but into it, which also costs money.
Screen Gems is in the red with this film, sorry.
SAM; can u all do some reserch? the budget for burlesque was $55million
it needs to at least double that to turn a profit, you’re right that nothing can be said yet but this film is luck that most of the films out now have been out for 3-4 weeks.
the test will come in the next 2 wks to see how far it drops. I’m not sure that it will make $55mil domestically
$2.4mil on TGDay is sort of lame
She is very talented, but the movie it self was geared for all ages only reached one age group and that was the over 50 age group.
Lord, that child really can sing and she is really blessed with stage presence. The movie will make it money back but it will take sometime.
Lord knows I am waiting for “Takers” to come out in Blue-Ray, I’m buying it for my library of many movies.
The movie will come out in January in my country. I think I’m going to watch it. Has anybody seen it yet?
Unsure of whether I should go watch the movie or not I decided to check out some reviews. Some of which read as follows:
1. “Burlesque never even goes terribly, irretrievably wrong. It’s just dishwater dull”
2.”Trash comes in all forms, but rarely in a sequined G-string. That’s all there is to a brain-dead, cliché-riddled pastiche of old Betty Grable movies called Burlesque. ”
3. “The choicest dialogue in Burlesque provokes the sort of laughter that other, intentionally funny films only dream of generating. ” LOL 🙂
Which makes me wonder…Didn’t X-tina stans say that this movie was getting critical acclaim. Anywho based on such reviews I will not be watching the movie.
thanks to CHER atleast there this people watched this movie… if its only christina on this movie it will FLOP VERY HARD!
*still people
LMAO! This ish ain’t making it no where close to 50 mil. FLOP
This site is full of some hating ass b******. I went with my family last night to see the movie… I can honestly say we all loved it. I’m not a STAN for Xtina by no mean, but the movie was GREAT… the acting, singing, dancing, story line, everything… It wasn’t just Xtina, but it was the ENTIRE cast. Xtina didn’t pull this off by herself… People will be quick to call this a flop that have NOT bothered to see the movie at all. This movie will far exceed 55 million dollars. This is Thanksgiving weekend. People are mainly shopping for Christmas gifts, no going to movies… Plus Burlesque is up against the HARRY POTTER movie… I mean come on….
Again, I repeat, you people are some hating ass b****** on this site… I mean get a clue and a life! You want this girl to fail, and that is truly sad…. Take a look at your own lives. Wishing the failure of others is just pathetic.
@tj lol Harry Potter was already opened last week! and christina stan even said that Burlesque will open big than the Harry Potter! OMG! too bad it did not happen!
^@JJ: Which stan said that? well that just full of dream tbh.
& Agreed with you @TJ. this blog is full of hatred & it’s such a shame.
they still not give a break on Christina, although she has decent acting, the cliched movie is on top 5.. & it’s a musical. Not as bad as the other pop-start turned to actress Movie. I mean.. c’mon. Give her & all entire cast a credit.
@sundee thats what christina stan said on previous comments, well what can i say a lot of christina stans are delusional! look what happened FAIL!
JJ,
When you’re looking at HARRY Potter which was indeed released last week, when does ANY BLOCKBUSTER Drop that much from week one to week 2 in weekly box office sales? Also, when you compare that to the first week release figures of a musical…. Get real….
You come off as a straight hater… Get a clue… I’m sorry.
@KD the critiques yes many of them think it’s cliched & so on.
but, many viewer loved it & said it’s a fun fun movie…
(just go & check rottentomatoes*)
so it’s up to you. 🙂
I saw Burlesque and it was very good. Very entertaining and I would highly recommend it. Cher is perfection and Christina is a fairly good actress – certaintly much better than Mariah Carey or Madonna!
@JJ named the stans (or gimme a link) that just delusional thought of him/her. that’s why i hate stans, mostly they so stucked up & stupid… well hello, just see Eminem’s Stan MV for a fact. All i can say all Stanssss are the same >,<;;;
& I am a fans of many artists. (same with True Blue). realistic fans*
Well I have no idea what the term of the word "FAIL" to you. coz i just smell pure of hate & delusional.
I read some where that it was mainly people in their 50’s going to see the movie. Those are Cher’s fans obviously, and a gross of 2.4-2.8 million on a week of Thanksgiving is a major flop. Especially when movies like Tangle, and Harry Potter took in over 10 million.
The movie is estimated to gross 16 million by the end of the week, but others musicals have been much more successful at the box office.

Nichole, you sound like and fool.
I’m so sorry to tell the haters>>>>>>>>>>>>>
http://www.apple.com/itunes/charts/albums/
Burlesque soundtrack is topping at #2 =)
musicals usually dont do well. Dreamgirls is a rare goal.. and so is Chicago. they both had great casts…. Nine didnt do well. A musical is a big risk for movie studios.
LOL I love people how people are hating saying the soundtrack isn’t doing good its doing good on the charts everywhere. The movie pulling in close 2 to 20 million is great did great better than crossroads,glitter,showgirls. All you just wanna see Christina fail which is sad and pathetic. I saw the movie is was great everyone did great.
ALL THE HATERS SHUT YOUR F****** ASSHOLE. I DID WHACH THE MOVIE AND IT WAS GREAT!!!! FOR A MUSICL ITS A HIT, THE IS SOME MOVIES THAT MAKE ABOUT 3 MILLION I 3 DAYS, THE MOVIE IS GOOD I DID LIKE IT ALOTS IF YOU DONT LIKE IT ITS FINE DONT GO BUT I RECOMENDING ITS AWENOME!! THE MOVIE WORLD WIDE WILL BE MAKE ABOUT 100.000.000 AND IF SHE GOING TO A WORLD TOUR SHE WILL BE MAKE ANOTHER 150.000.000 PLUS DVD , SOUNDTRACKS, TV RIGHTS , BLOCKBOSTERS, AND MANNY OTHER WAYS TO MADE $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ PEOPPLE EXPECTING THE MOVIE TO MAKE10.000.000 NOW IS ABOUT 20.000.000 SO HATERS SUCK IT CUZZ XTINA WAS AMAZING IN THE MOVIE SO WAS CHER AND THE REST OF THE CAST.
Wow and to see show me how you burlesque is at 30 on iTunes and express is 61
@Xtina is an icon…..
could you please turn off the caps lock?
people would never ever take you serious with that. :/
@madamxtina u are right about mariah carey glitter didnt do well but crossroads did well but in short time…
glitter budget 22 mil dollars… gross 5,271,666
crossroads 1st day- $5.2 million … budget $12,000,000… gross – $61,141,030
@sundee example of a stan —> xtina is an icon here in the uk and worldwide!
So just seen the list of bionic new additional hopefully its true their is 15 new songs on the new album of bionic
Well um is the 65 worldwide cause burlesque will be making more than crossroads all together infraction many may have not love burlesque it got far better rating percentage than the 3 movies I put. So anyways xtina shall be on top.
this site is always negative to all artist..u complain about christina britney beyonce rihanna…whoever owns this site is just a sad person..really. ur just a sad person. and a movie opening at 17.8 mil? flop? really? dats just pathetic…the only reason u would say dat is because xtina was on it. and the movie will do fine. its almost as if u want christina to always fail…i guess ur perez hilton’s t***** cousin
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ IS COMING NOT MATTER WHAT,THE MOVIE WORLD WIDE WILL MAKE OVER 100.000.000 +DVD SALES, SOUNDTRACK SALES+ DVD RENTALS+ TV RIGHTS+ AND MANNY WAYS TO MAKE $$$$$$$$$$$ IF SHE GOING TO ANOTHER WORLD TOUR SHE WILL BRING ANOTHER 150.000.000 .. SO HATERS DONT BE TO WORRY ABOUT HOW MUCH THE MOVIE MAKES IN 3 DAYS OUT IN THE USA . XTINA IS A GLOBAL SUPERSTAR AND HER MOVIE IS GOING TO BE REALISE WORLD WIDE!! THE SOUNDTRACK IS AWESOME!!!
@madamxtina thats is already good for crossroads since britney is the only one carrying that movie no CHER on it so its still good for a cheesy movie
Loved it! It is a beautiful feel good movie….and that it does. Cher cannot do anything wrong…..Christina….what a set of pipes..and hips…..amazing. This is call entertainment.
*FAIL*
Well, the movie actually did better than I expected it to. I love Christina, but this movie doesn’t look so good, so I’m gonna have to pass on it…
well if it makes 16m in the US thats fine sony will still make there money back from UK sales Europe Russia Australia and Asia lots more money in the world not just in America. you silly yanks think americans are the only people that spend money. also soundtrack which is doing well and DVD sales when that is released. they dont just make the money back from american box office, that is a small part of the income made from films
LMAO! Another Flop for FLOPtina!!!
What a loser
1st of CONGRATS to Xtina & Cher – I predicted around 20mill. $17.8mill will be great but if it does $10mill they are still on track to surpass 50mill ww.
I love how ppl call this a flop when many movies starring A List actors/actresses opened with less or similar numbers.
The Town opened at NO.1 with 23mill and that went on to gross over 100mill ww.
Julia Roberts Eat Pray Love opened with $12mill – grossed over 100mill
Jennifer Aniston The Switch opened with 8.1mill etc.
Only movies that are based on books, comics etc. will do like 50 – 100mill in its opening week e.g. Harry Potter, Twilight etc.
I don’t care what you all say! I am watching Burlesque tomorrow and I cannot wait!
@JJ… i know it (it is clearly a coo-coo stan). & the others think their idol is a God/jeSUS/Christ/Allah, etc. which is… stupid. <– a sign of world coming to an end. eek~~
About Crossroad, let's not compare those two. it has many opposite things. example: Britney in her goodtime, but no other big named actors, & Xtina worst year ever but with Cher, inflation vs recession, etc
Oh I Wish Burlesque has a worldwide opening, I have to wait until January to see it.
TBH, I thought it’s gonna open at #8 or #10. since so many people make assumption about it’s gonna be Glitter or Showgirls, plus many people hate on Christina so damn much. But oh well.. now we can see the real numbers… 😀
ANOTHER FLOP FOR THE BLONDE COW HAHAHAHA!!!!
I swear, you stans are acting like everyone should just lick and kiss someone’s ass! If people don’t like the movie or Christina…. so be it! This is a f****** blog, not a fansite, so if you wanna read nothing but positive comments, go to a Xtina fansite. I didn’t see the movie cuz it looks boring as hell, but Chistina’s career is over and she wont even be a successful actress. I’m sorry for y’all who think I’m hatin, but unlike many, I don’t like to see nasty, dirty, slutty woman who are always damn near naked in their videos like Christina. And “Burlesque??”” Are you kidding me? What a f****** stereotypical and degrading movie for women! I swear, women are seen as nothing but s** objects and sleaze.
@Lola: you refer that to me?
saw it and it is an amazing movie. Christina’s vocals are amazing as usual and she captures her character well in the movie. It’s cute.
Well it is a bit difficult to beat out Harry Potter AND Disney animated film. Just saying.
I’ll be seeing Burlesque on Saturday night with my gay bff and I am sure we will love it.
Amazing movie! It’s a must see (:
The music is amazing as well!
Um. Hate Xtina, but LOVED burlesque.
It was like Cabaret, but only the fun parts (so no nazis).
I saw this movie with my cousin. It was fun! I enjoyed it.
PROS:
– Stanley Tucci was wonderful, as always.
– Cher = statuesque goddess. It’s easy to see why she’s a legend.
– Cam Gigandet and Eric Dane were both delicious to look at.
– Gorgeous, exquisite costumes.
– Fabulous musical numbers.
(And last but not least…)
– Christina! As someone who’s usually pretty indifferent about her, I can honestly say without bias that I was impressed by her performance. Her acting was charming, convincing, and surprisingly natural. I’m not saying she deserves an Oscar nom or anything, but it was easy to see her as Ali (the character she played) and not “Christina Aguilera trying to act.”
Also, she looked AMAZING, which was a pleasant surprise because I’m so used to seeing her look like a hot mess at events. Whoever did her hair and makeup for this movie should be hired as her full-time hair-and-makeup person, because she looked so young and pretty and fresh! Her body looked fantastic as well. I don’t understand why she can’t look like this all the time…
Her voice sounded phenomenal. Really. I’m starting to think she should just quit pop music and do Broadway or something instead, because honestly, her voice is wasted on pop music. The kind of songs that become #1 hits today–Tik Tok, California Gurls, etc.–don’t rely on vocal talent at all, which means that Christina has no competitive advantage in the field. And her voice really is wonderful, so she should find something that can showcase it properly.
CONS:
– The plot sucked, was predictable and full of cliches, etc.
Anyway…overall, I’d recommend it. It won’t blow your mind and change your life, but it’s enjoyable and worth your money.
she should quit. she’s a total flop and deserves the name FLOPTINA.. she suxxxx
It’s only a flop if it doesn’t make back the money it cost to produce the film. Between the weekend, international releases, and DVD sales, I’d say this movie will be fine.
Only worry if it makes $3 million the entire run. That would be reason to call it a major flop.
17,8 M not great for a Flop leading singer turn actress?
the MOST hatred one all over the Blog World. LOL!
Are you kidding me?!!! seeeshhhh
Burlesque is on:
Top 10 Box Office
Top 10 Album on iTunes
—-
Play Express. oh i mean: PRESSED!
ROFLMAO
Nobody here needs to be talking crap about this movie if you haven’t seen it! Also, the hating on Christina is so childish. I can tell the people on this blog are twelve years old. I saw the movie and I loved it. The musical numbers blew me away and I agree with another person who said Christina should just leave pop music and do broadway because that woman has a set of pipes that’s too good for the craptastic noise on the radio now. She was very impressive in this movie and she carried it well. For a musical with a first time leading lady, I think $17 million is great. It freakin beat out Faster and Love & Other Drugs which starred more established actors, not to mention it had to compete with Potter and Tangled, on thanksgiving weekend, which are family films.
You people on this site are so damn sad. You just sit around your computer waiting for the girl to fail and hoping she does. Sorry to break it to you but this movie isn’t a flop. #3 debut is very good for this genre and it’s gonna gross more than Glitter, Showgirls, and Crossroads. All movies that it was compared to. I’ve seen all three of these movies and Burlesque was more entertaining than all of them combined. Go on over to yahoo movies and see what viewers had to say about it. It has an overall A- grade. Not to mention, the soundtrack is doing fantastic. So what the hell is all this whining about it being a flop? A flop is debuting at #8 with barely two million dollars, which is pretty much what all these bitter little haters predicted! You people need to analyze your own lives and why the hell you want to see people fail so badly. If Christina Aguilera was the irrelevant flop you say she is, you all wouldn’t be watching her so closely. Contradicting yourselves much?
@tina PREACH!
Saw BURLESQUE today and I really liked it. No, it’s not gonna solve the mysteries of the world, but it was fun entertainment and great music with eye candy to boot.
I saw BURLESQUE and it was AWSEOME! Any negative comments in here are strictly people who have been jealous of Christina’s talent all along and want to see her fail. How sad for you people that your life consists of wishing ill will on people. And with those box office estimates the movie will bring in over $20 million it’s first week making it a definite HIT (especially considering musicals generally don’t fare as well at the box office, but do EXTREMELY well in DVD sales)! Christina was on Conan recently, and where I at one time thought she might be a little “cold” found her utterly charming and enjoyable…Don’t let the detractors keep you away from the movie….you will be REALLY MISSING OUT! And the ones who say “oh, yeah, I’m not going because of the critics (who for the most part have been favorable)” aren’t to be believed. They had the bias towards the movie in the first place. GO, ENJOY YOURSELF. AND LET THE HATERS BOIL!
The movie was amazing! I loved it and thought that it was well worth the money to see it. Christina and Cher were great together.
Hahaha haters you are full of s*** !! XTINA is a hit !! Burlesque is official a hit on thanksgiving weekend!! 20.890.000 not flop no that all haha only in USA & Canada the movie is Great:) I wach it and I love complete !! The movie will bring about 120 to 150.000.000 world wide plus the soundtrack is doing great plus DVD sales and rentals , tv rigths , and manny other ways to make $$$$$$$$$$$$ to all the heaters out there this is xtina the superstar the best voice of music industry and one of the hotters girls in Hollywood !! And she is going to anther world tour she will make another 150.000.000 yes yes yes !!:)
^We’ll wait until the final number please. If it doesn’t make that much… all blame is not going towards you, but Christina herself. so keep that in mind.
Good New! Burlesque OST. now at #1 iTunes.
http://www.thekhans.me.uk/stuff/iTunes.php?genre=USalbums
😀
Wow, all those haters. Xtina can sing,dance, and now as we saw, she can act. Great movie. Worth every penny.
people are only calling it a fail in hope it will fail because they find christina a threat. its pathetic that people insist in slagging off such a beautiful hearted woman who this year fed over 90million children what did you do? f*** all and what did your favourite singers do who you worship… f*** all… the real cold hearted horrible people are the ones slagging off christina.. the film is doing great no one was expecting it to be a number 1 over harry potter. this film is going to be a long lasting film just like the album is sticking to top 10 itunes like theres no tomorrow.. it even went to no:1 for a few hours and went bk down to no:2 it just keeps rising, it also sold out in walmart and amazon, but amazon have had more stock in. you idiots need to think before you speak before you slag off inocent people like christina. slag off gaga shes the one who insults people who interview her making them feel small and shes completely rude the biggest woman in fashion Anna completely hates lady gaga she had to tell gaga off for acting childish.. beyonce is a money eating machine anything for a quick buck. Cannot wait for burlesque to come out in uk!! so excited!
THIS WAS A REALLY GOOD MOVIE.
#1 in iTunes baby !!!:)
My boyfriend and i went to see it, it was badasss. He enjoyed it as much as i and all the other women in there did. Cant wait to buy the dvd to see that guy naked again. Its a great movie.
LOL. All the haters should read this article and sit the FCK down.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/advocate/20101127/ts_advocate/burlesque_best_opening_weekend_for_cher__1
Burlesque: Best Opening Weekend for Cher
Los Angeles – Burlesque may be facing stiff competition from Harry Potter and Tangled, but the movie musical starring Cher and Christina Aguilera is on its way to making $18 million dollars over the five day holiday frame.
The film, which marks Cher’s first starring role since 1999’s Tea With Mussolini, is expected to take in more than $12 million opening weekend. Burlesque already took in $5 million on Wednesday and Thursday.
Cher’s previous best opening weekend was for The Witches of Eastwick in 1987.
The film cost $50 million to produce and should make that money back in its stateside release. The film is expected to do better in its international release next month.
buh bye!
I loved the movie, I thought Christina was great, and as always Cher was wonderful! Would recommend it highly !
DEAD @ some xtina haters here and calling her a flop… news flash: she earns more than you and has more talent than any of you haters.. it makes me laugh reading these sad hate comments.. like you think your better than her or something.. get me a break.. if you dont like her then shut up.. easy and simple.. cuz at the end of the day, she is way above all you haters… i suggest to evaluate what your life is right now and her life cuz its so obviously, she is way above you haters..
are you earning like her? do you have the talent to do what she does?
im literally laughing because some are hatin’ but come to think of it, you pretty much dont have a life… so keep on hatin’.. lets see what it does with you life..
🙂
I liked everthing about the movie. I didn`t realize Christine had such a powerful voice.
I loved the movie. She did good in it. Hope it does better in the coming weeks
I predict it will go over $40 million domestically & pull in a small chunk of change overseas that could add up to say $12 million. Most of its costs will be met in the theaters, but it can recoup the rest in DVD, BlueRay and airing on cable over the next couple years. All in all, it was not a huge success, but for its stars they got what they wanted.
It was an awful movie
I remember when going to the movies was a treat, a big event. Also, interesting that so many people on here have such hatred toward others. I loved this film. I thought Cher really rocked and she shows she is still hot and still vulnerable and beautiful. Christina’s voice blew me away. And the costumes and set, and Stanley Tucci and the others were great fun. It’s not a film about just one person, but the whole cast makes it what it is. I also agree it was like Cabaret without the Nazis. Burlesque is the revival of a lost art. I hope it makes a bazillion dollars. I enjoyed it as did my cynical Scottish date.
People quick tripping!!!! Christina copylera ms Marilyn Monroe wannabe that is Snooki’s twin is not all that !!. Why are the the people that are soo in love with her getting mad at the people that don’t agree with you about her movie?.Christina can sing but no her movie is not doing that great soo what’s the big deal? not everyone has to like it, but please stop making her sound like some God she’s just a skanky ,cheater that’s movie is doing o.k. you can’t even compare it to some of these other films that came out.
she is very talanted. her act is good and singing perfect.
Grosses 64m$
I love this movie! This is my favoritest (< I am aware that's not a word) in the whole world! I rate this move (on a scale from 1-10) a 99977632644560160637630647366706786506276782631764756470811111111111106. Haha
it’s unbelievable some media sources keep calling this movie a flop. it may not have been a blockbuster, but a flop…no.
the media hate for christina is unquestionable and they have succeeded in turning fans and potential fans against her by painting an ugly hateful image of her and making her appear irrelevant. what’s anymore hateful than ruining a talented artist’s career with lies and negativity.
hi,there
