Bionic flopped for alot of reasons that just added up.
1.Terrible choice in singles. Not Myself Tonight did bad when its tasteless video came out. Woohoo should have been an official single, and You Lost Me was released at a bad time. Who wants to hear a ballad during the middle of summer?
2. Bad promotion. The only real promotion she got was the Mtv Movie Awards, vh1's Sorytellers, the American Idol performance, and the Behind The Music episode. Her promotion on Fuse t.v was pointless cause not everyone gets that station. Going on Oprah and Regis & Kelly was pointless too because their audience isnt interested in the type of music xtina puts out. People who watch those shows are middle aged women who probably dont listen to songs that go "Im Kissing on all the boys and the Girls" . And who the fuck watches The Early Show?
3.Bad Image. Xtina's never had a good image. Comparisons to Britney, Britney & Pink, and now GaGa leave a bad taste in ppl's mouth.
4.Bad Music. Bionic is Xtinas worst work to date. The only good songs were Lift Me Up, You Lost Me, Elastic Love, Sex For Breakfast, Not Myself Tonight, and Bionic. The songwriters who helped her were too generic, Tricky Stewart being one of them. She didnt use one of the main keys to her success: Linda Perry. Xtina and Linda Perry create magic when they write songs together. Instead of writing with Linda, she wrote with Tricky and Ester Dean, the most generic songwriters in the music industry today

@ the ppl who say Blackout had no promotion. In 2007, Britney Spears was making headlines lef and right. All press is good press.
