Proving that she’s still note for note one of this generation’s greatest vocalists, Christina Aguilera blew the roof of Disney’s Christmas Parade today.
The 31 year old served up a stellar showing of ‘Have Yourself A Very Merry Christmas’; whetting our appetites for her chart comeback early next year.
Watch the ‘Dirrty’ bird soar after the jump…
Enchanting stuff.
Your thoughts?
AMAZING!!!! #XTiNA2012! <3
WOW! She killed it! Amazing…
OMG many whistle!!! Yash!!! her vocals sounded better & may I say one of the best @ 2011. She still got it bb!!!

YASS!! Im here for this, and she killing it in that promo pic above

Good voice. Still needs to lose 30 lbs. Stat!!
@BEY’KNIGHT Merry Christmas to you too 🙂 Are you ok?
HOT!!! :-)))
LEGENDTINA Slaaaaaays!!!!! :-))))))
Yes!!!! The Voice of the Generation pulled through with the Golden Pipes as always. I love that she and Disney still have a relationship
Yass X! She’s serious about slaying next year!
Damn gurl! She just snatched my wig thread for synthetic thread.
That was beast. Get it X.
The Voice Lessons is helping. She is sounding better
I do believe Christina is talented but one has to wonder. Can she really sing? It seems when she gets to the high notes she being forceful with her voice. Since she has been doing this for a long time, has she gotten use to this style. I’m just wondering if I’m the only one feeling this way but I do thinks she is talented.
Her best performance this 2011, a year full of terrible performances from her. I like her voice when she uses it like this, not constant screaming (more s** for breakfast please). I think it wasn´t live though
Omg this performance SLAYED!!!! She never disappoints
@JohnVidal
No, according to fans on Twitter it was pre-recorded
@ SELENAGOMEZFAN-
It was not prerecorded. How in the hell are you going to go by with what a few “alleged” fans said on twitter. Keep off that site my friend!
And she looks s*** in that promo pic Sam used. I love it 🙂 can’t wait for 2012
Wait a second.The broadcasted show was pre-recorded, but Christina performed it live for them to pre-record the show, it’s not like she lip-synched or anything.Just to clarify this 😉
And YES!I love the pic too!Elegant and s***!
@ChristinasComing
I meant what @ASAP said. The whole thing was pre-recorded, but she sang live. Calm down honey
Who cares if the show was prerecorded? Legendtina slayed and that’s all that matters. And be ready to go hard in 2012 for Xtina’s new era. Chrissy will snatch everyone’s wig
Yass Floptina show these R&B h*** who be over-singing and over-performing every damn song how to do a well paced performance! Good job.
@Whut
What do you know about singing/performing when you stan for Rihanna?? She can’t do either.
Don’t call Xtina “Floptina” when her debut album+Christmas CD outsells your favs entire career.
Phenomenal! This is the type of vocal that has earned her the ‘Voice of A Generation’ tag, just because she has been lazy and undisciplined with her gift in recent years doesn’t mean she is not virtually peerless when at her peak…, Christina’s voice just has sooo many more textures than even her nearest vocal competition.
Excellent !!!
& YOUR FAVES WILL NEVER!
Xtina KILLED it! + killed all you faves
THE VOICE OF THE GENERATION , you mad?
Madame X 2012
Ya see?! Ya give a b****’s fave a compliment and still get attacked. Gurl Bionic you and get the Bionic off my case!! What a Bionic!!
Dear Thatgrapejuice,
isn’t she 31? She was born in 1980, get your facts straight.
Like I said it was great but still think it wasn´t live. And I don´t mean the show was pre recorded (who cares for that?) I mean vocals were prerecorded. But it´s just my impression and even if that were the case, it´s no big deal, we know she has a voice. I still can´t conceive how Brandy took that most anticipated comeback (and I like her) when Mariah Carey and Xtina are expected to release albums huge way
@ASAP
Of course im ok, i may have over-indulged a lil but het its christmas
Dead at rhitard tryna have an opinion on someone’s vocals n performance lmao. Imbecile hush! Hold ur peace till the next rihannagate crashes by. She always in hot waters anyways. Wont be long b4 soon
^ Wow a props from JohnVidal. Nice 😀
but lol @pre-recorded vocals with that random adlibs & rifts. but okay then xD it’s no big deal indeed to her anyway.
edit: it’s no big deal indeed… to her anyway (because she CAN sing). 😀
sounds great. just shows once again what a range her voice has. timbres for any occasion.

Ahhhhhhh sitting here innocently witnessing an artist singing and emoting without need to give “wildebeest slaughtered in the wild over dramatic” for a ballad and I find myself on the receiving end of a barrage of attacks from the the H.I.V’s press-ident stan. A day in the life at TGJ I guess.
She sounded good but you could really hear the years of wear and tear on her vocals at the climax of the song if you compare it to earlier performances and recorded version of this.
That was a great performance by Christine A
@whut did she really say show these over singers over performers how its done when u stan for someone who grossly under sing and under performs (and that’s giving her a compliment if u actually watch her performances) HAHAHAHAHA #icant
@whut what are u doing here?? Were discussing vocal talent here .. This is out of a rihannas stans league!.. wen we get back to fun wigs, mediocre songs and performances to match we will call you k? LOL
http://viciousfate.net/bigbang/0daesung/gasp.gif
*Gasp* why are coming at me so hostile. *Sighs* its christmas and yall being so sensitive and bothered? I didn’t mention any names on who I believe is an over singing over-dramatic 102938475 runs/riffs in a simple ballad R&B singer.
She still sounded amazing & interesting despite the fact that she sang it in a lowered key compared to the original track.
@LALA
but lol @pre-recorded vocals with that random adlibs & rifts. but okay then xD it’s no big deal indeed to her anyway.
__________________________________________________
Yeah, it was obviously not pre-recorded, but then this whole thing was just a misunderstanding 😉 Noone said she lip-synched, just that the show was pre-recorded, which simply means that she sang live a few days ago and they recorded it to broadcast it today 🙂 100% live!
@WHUT
I’m just glad you appreciated her performance 😎 You didn’t say anything THAT bad in your first comment here, so I’m guessing the responses you got stem from your comments in other posts rather than in this one 😉
XTINA>>>>>SLUTANNA
I WANT A GODNEY/CHRISTINA DUET!!!!
TWO BAD B****** 😉
This big b**** needs to drop a solid 50 lbs !!!
Rihanna>>>>>BIGtina 😉
christina really brought it hard! the gurl delivered the kill in a major way!!!
btw, ‘where’s waldo’ aka morganna?
gives me hope for her new music in ’12…
@ jerffery and godney…
an xtina and gaga duet? perhaps! xtina and britney? no, let’s not!
DECENT PERFORMANCE, THOUGH SHAKY. YOU CAN HEAR THE WEAR AND TEAR FROM YEARS OF VOCALLY ABUSING HER VOICE.
Honestly, I was ready to rip the b**** apart, but by some christmas miracle I guess I hear small baby step improvements on her singing since the horrendous s*** best that were her performances 2010/2011, and want to hear more as I hope she keeps improving.
Having said that, there’s still some issues with her intonation, and there’s still some signs of straining when she attacks diaphragmatically certain words like “trouble” and “star” and some of the notes at the ending sections, but with proper breathe support and continued study those are things that can be overcome…it might take a while though, as she’s had many years of vocal abuse.
Overall, on a scale from 0 to 10, I give it a 5.5
When her performances in the last few years have been 3s.
STOP HATING EACH OTHER’S FAVS!!!
That’s not what your favs stand for!!! Wake up, people!!!!
For example: ‘m not a fan of Rihanna, I think she has no good voice, but what’s the matter? That’s only my own opinion, but I’m not coming here to say that XY>>>> Rihanna, etc.!!! It makes no sense!!! There is enough place in the industry for everyone! Stop hating and comparing!!!!
Listen to Christina’s THE VOICE WITHIN, BEAUTIFUL and learn from it!!!
@MrMorrigan
Whoaaa it’s Christmas miracleeeee!!!! a nice +2,5 points upgrade from you Mr… & I wish her vocals keeps getting better either. btw, Have a joyful Xmas & Holiday to you bb. 😀
@Place4EveryArtist
Agreed with you. that comment it’s so childish imo, it’s like a bunch of kids saying, “My mom better than yours” & fighting over it… xD pppfffhhh~
Haters ignored the studio tracks. Tsk tsk tsk.
xtina slayed i can admit that , nicely controlled
wow great job XTINA
I must admit that I never liked her Christmas album with the exception of her rendition of HYAMLC-it is beautiful and one of her best vocal works. This performance was great. I’m very hard on her, but i have to admit when she does well. An ‘A’ for Aguilera
i love, love, love this song. i’ve watched this performance several times and it almost brings tears to my eyes. christina varied the arrangement just slightly without compromising the integrity of the song. it was awesome how she used different voice ttones (her whistle was outstanding) without oversinging.
i must admit that mtdiva was right! her voice sounds much better without as much raspyness. it also sounds not so good when singers (not just christina) resort to that obnoxious over growling.
this performance was phenomenal!
#DECEASED Why the f*** is Riherpes even mentioned on Legendtina’s article? D****** cannot be put aside the Queen.
