Best You Never Heard: The ‘Bionic’ Special

Published: Monday 2nd Jan 2012 by David

With Christina Aguilera‘s latest single ‘Love Your Body‘ expected to make its debut any time soon, the buzz surrounding the project and its supporting album have undeniably reached fever pitch within the last week.

Set to hit stores in coming months, the yet to be named album will arrive  two years after the release of  ‘Bionic‘, the entertainer’s fifth and most heavily debated LP to date.

So in celebration of the release, which many would agree came to an untimely ‘death’ after struggling to live up to the commercial success of its predecessors, That Grape Juice dedicates this very special edition of ‘Best You Never Heard to Bionic, naming four of our favorite but oft overlooked cuts from the LP.

Get into it below…

 

‘Woohoo (Ft Nicki Minaj)’

From its stuttering  beat to its ‘tongue in cheek’ lyrics, Woohoo is in many ways the older and perhaps more uninhibited sister of 2002’s ‘Dirrty‘.

Fun, sexy and enjoyably filthy, the jam’s unashamed approach to what some might label a ‘taboo topic’ served to cement Christina’s status as one of Pop’s braver entities, heated up even further with a predictably scorching verse from foul mouthed Pop Princess  Nicki Minaj.

‘Vanity’


‘I’m not cocky…’

Keeping in theme with the album’s loud, fierce and abrasive theme, Vanity makes for the ultimate party anthem. Armed with finger snapping verses and an annoyingly infectious hook, this shamelessly narcissistic club classic serves just as much heat today as it did when it first fell in our laps over a year ago.

‘Stronger Than Ever’


A feature on the LP’s deluxe edition, many could be forgiven for not knowing that such a song even exists.

Indeed, despite standing side by side with ‘Beautiful’ and ‘Voice Within’ as being one of Christina’s more heart felt ballads, ‘Stronger’ felt the full wrath of the media’s blacklisting of Bionic and thus found itself fading into obscurity once the project’s plug was finally pulled.

Showcasing the vocal restraint many accuse of the performer of not using enough of, the number’s slow but powerfully sincere start makes Aguilera’s trademark belting style toward the end of the cut all the more enjoyable.

Here’s to hoping album #6 delivers more of the same.

‘Glam’


Undoubtedly the closest thing this generation has to Madonna‘s ‘Vogue‘, Glam– in our opinion- could have easily restored  interest in ‘Bionic’ had it been the given the single treatment and a supporting video equally as innovative as the track itself.

Almost as though she found a way to channel a Neon stained Tokyo night and compress it into a 3 minute long song,  Glam‘s dreamlike backing track and couture-centric  theme makes it Christina’s strongest dance effort, far superior- dare we say- to the well produced but poorly received ‘Not Myself Tonight‘.

    Stronger Than Ever is one of my faves on Bionic !!!

    woohoo is crazy good

    u forgot s** for breakfast & prima donna

  4. NAUDISWEET (Xtina Stan) January 1, 2012

    Thank you guys for posting these songs, greatly appreciated. I bet that a lot of haters dissing Bionic only heard “Not Myself Tonight”. Glam was originally the first single, IDK why they went with NMT. Bonic is filled with great songs, it just lacked cohesion. She sang about about s** on one track, and then a lullaby to her son on the next; weird. Thanks again guys 🙂

  5. jake January 1, 2012

    ooo and lift me up that song kills me everytime

  6. ElectricChap January 1, 2012

    Oh GAD!
    This woman is such a flop! She is stupid to release an album in the same year as lady gaga when we know bad The Fame slayed Keeps Gettin It Better. Such a shame. first she was overshadowed by Britney and then overshadowed by a girl who grew up wanting to be her.

    Even worse than Flopdonna.

  7. QUEENTINA January 1, 2012

    i think bionic was a great album but the timing was wrong

    i mean
    1-Not Myself Tonight
    2-Lift Me Up
    3-S** For Breakfast
    4-Woohoo
    5-Vanity
    6-Stronger Than Ever
    8-Glam
    9-Prima Donna
    10-Desnunadate
    11-Elastic love
    12-Bionic
    13-You Lost me
    if that was the whole album it would have slayed

  8. fierctina cuntguilera January 1, 2012

    electric chap
    Sweetie- you really believe what gaga is doing is amazing, she isnt doing anything that a mediocore act wasnt doing back in the early noughties.

    Yes, when it comes to contemporary music, she comes third after Adele and Taylor Swift which is great but with all the promotion born this way got it has only sold 5 million worlwide and shipped 8 million.
    What is that s***- even after being promoted since before the 2010 vmas.

    Queen Christina will slay once she learns how to promote her music again. And then well see who the real blonde belter really is.

  9. Stronger January 1, 2012

    Yes!
    Thank you guys so much for showing her this much love. we fans really appreciate it.

    to the gaga stan- gaga is nothing but a glorified carbon copy.

    She copied Grace Jones during the Fame Era.
    Was original during the fame monster era but tried to become Madonna with Born This Way but failed.

    that album is nothing more than electrified s***, yeah the lyrics were good but not one song on that album could ever match the epicness of Beautiful, Express Yourself, Birds Of Prey or Like A Prayer.

    Interscope tried to defame my queen back in 2008 but it will not work in 2012.

  10. 8887799 January 1, 2012

    when i think about it i really think she shouldn’t have given up on bionic there were so many songs that could have saved the album and the tour would have been amazing

  11. MadreMonster January 1, 2012

    LOOOL, Chrisitna fans coming for Lady GaGa?
    Now ive seen it all!

    You dirty plebs have the nerve to insult a woman who has achieved more in three years than your Miss Piggy lookalike has achieved in ten.

    Must i remind you of what happened when christina tried to come for Gaga saying she didn;t know who shewas, the ENTIRE media turned against her. as someone else put it, Porkguilera will always be second best. She was second to S****** in the 90s, was second to Stealonce’ in 2006 and is now having to play catch up with Slaymenotta.

  12. Beyhave January 1, 2012

    Who are you calling stealonce?

    being slayed by Gaga and Beyonce is one thing but being slayed by rihanna is just a pisstake.

  15. cumonme January 1, 2012

    sounds COOL ! as i want her sound to be !!! 🙂

    BIONIC was great , but the media trashed it ! 😥 !

    that P** perez hilton is the one to blame ! he energized the whole drama queens in LGBT to be against her ! and we all know they are the ppl who actually buy music and support POP divas !!! 🙄

  18. ISTANN4GAGA January 1, 2012

    My fellow Gaga stans-STOP IT!

    I do NAWT want this post to turn into an Xtina/Gaga stan war.Leave Christina alone,you wouldn’t like it if her fans randomly came on.Gaga’s post to start s***?

    Don’t be f****** messy,if you have a reasonable opinion,that’s fine BUT we don’t have to resort to calling others FLOPS.

  19. AguileraiLoveu January 1, 2012

    IStan4GaGa please take a seat. You are NOT judge judy and this is NOT your court.

    You’re scared that people are calling your fave out for the conspiracy she and Interscope concocted to have Christina blacklisted in 2008. Filthy b**** she is.

    Just found out today that her parents are Republican, so i guess we know how THEY feel about her gay fan base.

  20. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) January 1, 2012

    @TGJ Thank you so much for this post.

    ‘Bionic’ was my favorite album of 2010.Anthemic, uplifting (even in the ballad section), humourous, fresh.There is no song on the album that I dislike!!Every single track is amazing!!I wish it had been a longer era, but Christina had been recording for 2,5 years, so after so many interventions, the label ruined it for her with their awful decisions 🙁

    I want her to come back strong!!In my opinion, she’s yet to fail musically and creatively and ‘Bionic’ was diverse, versatile and ballsy, which is much more than can be said for modern pop albums.I agree that ‘Glam’ should have been the lead single, but I think Christina was doomed then because of shady label politics (enough said!).She’s fearless, though and, as the overlooked and underestimated ‘Bionic’ proved she has JUST begun discovering her artistry in its entirety.She has a great future ahead of her (*plays Makes Me Wanna Pray* )

  21. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) January 1, 2012

    *for most modern pop albums

  22. Matty January 1, 2012

    hello my girls feat peaches!!!!!

  23. De January 1, 2012

    Bionic Was A Fun, Versatile, Heartfelt ALL in 1 crazy Pop Album
    it was my favorite in 2010
    i even remember billboard naming it Pop Album Of The Year

  24. AguileraiLoveu January 1, 2012

    my problem with lady gaga it this:

    She’s a champagne socialist.
    I hate when people who are monetarily successful and who use their money to their advantage turn around and say “oh i dont care about money”.
    B*******! If you didn’t you wouldn’t have bothered promoting your album as hard you as did since most people will hear it for free anyway.

    christina has to make the world fall back in love with her well before the release of this new album.

  25. Voicelera January 1, 2012

    BIONIC was the best pop album of 2010. It takes a big, fat sh*t on ANYTHING Lady Wannabe has released to date! People are so f*cking biased.

    People only hated BIONIC because it came from Christina.

    People always expect pure perfection from Christina Aguilera, that’s why they’re so harsh on her. Christina Aguilera is the most talented of all her peers, after all. The slightest littlest imperfections cause great anger to haters and fans alike. LOL

    BIONIC’s best songs were :

    ELASTIC LOVE
    LIFT ME UP
    ALL I NEED
    I AM
    YOU LOST ME
    MONDAY MORNING
    BIRDS OF PREY
    Oh and PRIMA DONNA is extremely bad@**.

    The Xtina haters can remain bitter, jealous, nervous and stupid. BIONIC sh*ts on them. All of Christina’s future albums will continue to sh*t on everybody.

    Perez Hilton, Lady Wannabe, Akon, Kiss-FM radio, etc, etc, etc : all of Christina Aguilera’s haters are ugly, deformed and idiotic. They can stay mad and envious.

  26. okkk January 1, 2012

    Another example of poor lead single choices…. “Glam” or even “Prima Donna” would have been huge.

  27. TakeAbOW (Madonna And Rihanna Will Slay In 2012) January 1, 2012

    To the person who asked who i called stealonce.
    I was talking about BEYONCE. You know- the serial concept snatcher. The woman who’ll take your ideas, put her name on it and tell the world she created it.

    That b**** would claim the publishing rights to Happy Birthday if the law permitted it. Shady 4closure slute.

  28. Le January 1, 2012

    The Best Songs Of Bionic Were:

    1-Not Myself Tonight
    2-Woohoo
    3-Bionic
    4-Glam
    6-Lift Me Up
    7-S** For Breakfast
    8-Desnudate
    9-Vanity
    10-Prima Donna

    Dam It Really Was A Great Album Such A Shame What Happened

  29. Bow Down to The Perrylicious… (The Queen of TGJ) January 1, 2012

    Why this site suddenly supporting Aguilera??
    Stop shitting…Owhh..Gaga stans please stop it… Your t***** fading too fast.
    This girl (Aguilera) will be back better than ever.

  30. pop royalty ( The BeyHive ) January 1, 2012

    i love this album to regardless if it was a certified Flop or not …. 😡

    @ISTAN4GAGA :

    i respect U cuz of what u did with that @electric Chapel !!

  31. Legendtina Aguilera, 1993 to the infinity January 1, 2012

    I am sick of reading about Lady Caca and her stupid deformed, ugly-@ss self. She is so f*cking extremely ugly and her voice is a gigantic annoyance.

    She is the ULTIMATE, BIGGEST F*CKING, CRINGE-WORTHY, EMBARRASSING NEWBIE AND WANNABE I’VE EVER SEEN OR HEARD!!

    HOW THE F*CK THAT CLOWN TROLL TOY PIECE OF SH*T MANUFACTURED FAKE LIAR IDIOTIC MANAGED TO HAVE FANS IN THE FIRST PLACE, I WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND, EVER.

    Let’s see if Lady Caca and her fraudulent, opportunist, fame-obsessed team dare to use Christina Aguilera’s name again in the future in paid advertisements!!!!!!! Let’s see if Akon opens his stupid, ret@rded, ignorant, jealous, deranged mouth to talk ignorant sh*t about Xtina again.

    Let’s see if Interscope dares to sabotage LEGENDTINA AGUILERA again. Stupid f*cks.

  33. Lady Wannabe and Interscope remain threatened by the legendary Aguilera January 1, 2012

    Lady Caca wishes she could sing like the most bad@** pop singer of her generation : Christina Aguilera. But Lady Caca can’t and never will.

    The only thing Lady Caca can do is attempt to look like Aguilera.

    It’s funny how Lady Caca didn’t like the Amy Winehouse comparisons and decided to wear a blond wig because of that…. HOWEVER NOW, Lady Caca is making NO EFFORTS TO STOP THE CHRISTINA AGUILERA COMPARISONS, WHICH ARE MILLIONS AND TRILLIONS MORE TIMES MORE PREVALENT THAN THE AMY WINEHOUSE COMPARISONS EVER WERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Lady Caca is a f*cking wannabe. Period, point blank. A f*cking clown!!!!!!
    BORN LIKE A MANUFACTURED, 99 CENT DUMB@**!!!!!!!!!!
    All the Lady Caca fans are wack!!!!!!!! UGH!!!!!!!!!!!! Monstrosities, indeed!!!!!!!!!
    Lady Caca and her fugly @ss team better stay the f*ck away from Xtina VOICELERA!!!!!!!

    I’m not really “scared” if I don’t believe in Conspiracy theories (especially like the one you mentioned).I take the findings of industry “experts” with a grin of salt.

  35. MissImpartial January 1, 2012

    Her mistake was to release NMT which was her worst songe ever. And the video was too much s** and seemed a bit desperate. It seemed that she was desperately trying to shock and keep up with the younger audience. IF she had chosen another song she would have made it. There was no connection what so ever with the audience. She should have never went into electro music as it does not fit her voice. and she should have noted how mildly successful the single Keeps getting better was.

  36. Bionic January 1, 2012

    Bionic was a great album no matter the flop

    i just don’t get some of u i’m an Aguilera stan and i dont hate on other i love beyonce, gaga has a few nice songs love j.lo
    some of u need to get over urselves

  37. NAUDISWEET (Xtina Stan) January 1, 2012

    @Perrylicious
    I’m wondering the same thing, i mean they spared no opportunity to drag her during the whole Bionic mess. Not that i’m complaining….just curious.

  38. MissImpartial January 1, 2012

    @ISTANN4GAGA
    I agree with you on your Gaga vs Christina point. You come across as the mature Gaga fan.I say fan as you don’t come across as a delusional stan and you are the only Gaga stan I like to debate with on this site.

  39. Amazinglera January 1, 2012

    Christina’s discography = Best Lyrics, best melodies, best vocals, best overall pop music.

    Statistics don’t matter. Sales, awards don’t matter.

    Christina’s music is fantastic, whether the stupid public decide to buy her CDs or not!!!!!!!!!!

    I don’t expect Christina Aguilera’s EXTREMELY FUGLY AND STUPID haters to understand.

  40. ISTANN4GAGA January 1, 2012

    @Missimpartial

    Thanks,not all of us are looney when it comes to Xtina.

  41. Unitedasone January 1, 2012

    Once again, every time something about Christina Aguilera gets posted here her fans start to trash talk Lady Gaga. For those who think Lady Gaga is a failure, her album (Born This Way) has sold nearly 10 million worldwide. Thats a flop? Her singles after Born this Way did not get to number one, but you have to look at the big picture. Radio is bias and plays what it wants to play. It does not mean anything anymore. Nonetheless even if Born This Way only sold five million, xtina fans calling it a flop would be insane given the fact that bionic still has YET to sell one million units.

    You want to know whats a failure? A bunch of Xtina stans who pass blame on why an album (Bionic) fails. It failed because it sucked. Perez Hilton did not cause it to fail. His opinions of her were based on everyone elses opinions. Do you really think an asshole like him is capable of thinking for himself? He makes money because he latches on to anything that is successful. Doing that gets his site hits, which gets him advertisers, which gets him money. Plain and simple. Stripped and Back to Basics were heartfelt albums. She says her next one will be heartfelt, but with a lead single called “F**K Your Body” I find it hard to believe that it will be heartfelt.

    If Bionic was entirely her decision then she needs to take responsibility for that. If that is not the case and if it is what RCA wanted then she needs to leave RCA. If her next album turns out like Bionic then that really is her problem, even if its what the label wanted. This is because she could have put of a fight, even take legal action, and terminate the contract. If the next album is like Bionic (in terms of commercial performance) I am pretty sure she would be dropped.

    What does it say when I see comments on Christina Aguilera related posts here and on other sites when the fans act like immature nine year olds? It tells me that there are people out there who need a job and have too much free time. Complaining about an album’s failure and complaining about Lady Gaga is really insane when you see there are much bigger problems in the world. The people in Greece would laugh at the insanity that goes on with Xtina fans on these various websites because the Greeks right now have much bigger issues to deal with.

  42. Amazinglera January 1, 2012

    LADY CACA IS A F*CKING NEWBIE AND THE BIGGEST F*CKING WANNABE!!!!!!!!!

    Here’s a reminder of all the legends Lady Caca copy/pasted :

    MICHAEL JACKSON
    THE SPICE GIRLS
    etc

    Christina Aguilera is a f*cking Legend that has been famous since the first season of the Mickey Mouse Club, back in 1993!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    WHERE THE F*CK WAS YOUR FUGLY-@SS IDOL LADY WANNABE AT THE TIME, YOU F*CKING MONSTERS???????
    I KNOW, SHE WAS SOMEWHERE IN KINDERGARTEN WATCHING THE MICKEY MOUSE CLUB ON THE TELEVISION, wishing she was Christina!!!!!!!!!
    Christina : The little girl with the big voice!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Lady Caca is a fraudulent piece of sh*t. A fugly troll and clown. Her repetitive, annoying music is a gigantic horse sh*t.

  48. why lady caca stinks January 1, 2012

    I talk trash about Lady Caca, NOT BECAUSE BIONIC FLOPPED (I COULDN”T CARE LESS THAT IT FLOPPED, I GOT MY COPY, I LIKE IT, THAT’S ALL THAT MATTERS!!!!)

    I talk trash about Lady Caca because :

    – She copies everybody.

    – The media is attempting to shove Lady Caca down everyone’s throat. And why???? SHE STINKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Media is NUTS!!!!!!!!!!!!

    – Lady Caca’s team used Christina Aguilera’s name in PAID ADVERTISEMENTS ON THE INTERNET to promote her debut album. THIS IS A FACT!!!!!!!! Some people took screenshots of these ads!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    – Lady Caca tried to accuse Christina Aguilera of plagiarism with this quote : “Anyone with two eyes can see the resemblance. But I’m flattered to inspire a superstar.” I MEAN REALLY, YOU DUMB B*CTH??????????? The only thing my eyes can see is that Lady Caca is the one that copies EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!!!!! NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    – Lady Caca’s entire music and discography to date sounds like pure sh*t to my ears!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s repetitive and noisy and ugly!!!!!!!!!!!! The lyrics are stupid and her voice is wack and ugly.

    – She sounds like a drugged-up robot in all the interviews I’ve seen. She is a DELUSIONAL and STUPID LUNATIC!!!!!!! Pure diarrhea comes out of her mouth!!!

    NEED I TYPE MORE???????????? I HAVE ENOUGH GOOD REASONS TO HATE LADY NEWBIE, the STUPID WANNABE!!!!

    You can call me pressed, you fools!!!!!! It’s doesn’t change the fact that Lady Caca STINK very badly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  49. Jason January 1, 2012

    Good to see in a post that has NOTHING to do with Beyoncé she’s still being brought up for no reason. She has your minds. It’s cute.

  50. Unitedasone January 1, 2012

    If Xtina’s next album fails, then her fans will blame Adele. I don’t know why I think this, I just think this is what will happen. Adele is successful. Her album has sold 16 Million so I think she would take the blame if Xtina’s next album fails.

    Even if this happens, that will be ok, because next month Adele is winning Album of the Year, an award xtina would never win.

  51. APasserBy January 1, 2012

    Unitedasone, you made me laugh, but I would not be surprised if that happened. We are not dealing with rational human beings when it comes to xtina stans.

  52. !!!! January 1, 2012

    i love XTINA from her debut till now specially Back to Basics

  53. some logic for you January 1, 2012

    Christina’s discography = Best Lyrics, best melodies, best vocals, best overall pop music.

    Statistics don’t matter. Sales, awards don’t matter.

    Christina’s music is fantastic, whether the stupid public decide to buy her CDs or not!!!!!!

    I don’t expect Christina Aguilera’s EXTREMELY STUPID haters to understand.

    Christina Aguilera is the best vocalist.

    The haters stay nervous and bitter.

    @MissImpartial

    Unfortunately,

    The sad thing is,they probably have each other on speed dial (all 5 of them)

    I think it’s because they’re all women and people (the media) love to start stuff.It’s even worse that stans (like me l,sometimes) fall for it.Seldom do you really see stans of males get into arguments like (Bey vs Ri or Gaga vs Brit & X)

    I can’t wait to buy Christina’s new album!!!!!!!!!

    I don’t care if it flops!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Unlike you poor f*cktarded idiots, us Xtina fans don’t need sales and awards to defend our favorite!!!!!!! Her talent speaks for itself!!!!!!!!!

    We are fans of talent!!!!!!!!! Not charts and numbers and statistics!!!!!!!!

    You poor Xtina haters. LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  58. voice of reason January 1, 2012

    Lady Caca is a piece of sh*t. A newbie plagiarist. A fake-@ss troll.

    Christina Aguilera DOES NOT have Lady Wannabe on speed dial!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh please.

    In your dreams, you wack-@ss monsters. Ugh.

  59. Ur stupid January 1, 2012

    These gaga fans or whoever keep saying that xtina fans always start to trash talk other artists like gaga and stuff but when you really look at the comments from the beginning, what do you see? A gaga fan started the whole thing trash talking xtina first. Hypocrites. The only solution is that ur a hater for you to come on an artists discussion board and just trash talk out of no where just to get a reaction. Fans of all artists need to stop that.

  60. aguilera poops on her haters January 1, 2012

    – Lady Caca’s team used Christina Aguilera’s name in PAID ADVERTISEMENTS ON THE INTERNET to promote her debut album. THIS IS A FACT!!!!!!!! Some people took screenshots of these ads!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    – Lady Caca tried to accuse Christina Aguilera of plagiarism with this quote : “Anyone with two eyes can see the resemblance. But I’m flattered to inspire a superstar.” I MEAN REALLY, YOU DUMB B*CTH??????????? The only thing my eyes can see is that Lady Caca is the one that copies EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!!!!! NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    – Lady Caca lets her friends Perez Hilton and Akon talk sh*t about Xtina.

    – Lady Caca claims she didn’t like it when people compared her look to Amy Winehouse’s, but Lady caca ignores the Xtina comparisons and makes no effort whatsoever to STOP LOOKING LIKE XTINA AGUILERA. Funny because the Xtina comparisons are very prevalent.

    – Lady Caca’s entire music and discography to date sounds like pure sh*t to my ears!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s repetitive and noisy and ugly!!!!!!!!!!!! The lyrics are stupid and her voice is wack and ugly.

    – She sounds like a drugged-up robot in all the interviews I’ve seen. She is a DELUSIONAL and STUPID LUNATIC!!!!!!! Pure diarrhea comes out of her mouth!!!

    LADY CACA IS A F*CKING NEWBIE AND THE BIGGEST F*CKING WANNABE!!!!!!!!!

    Here’s a reminder of all the legends Lady Caca copy/pasted :
    MADONNA
    CHRISTINA AGUILERA
    ROISIN MURPHY
    GRACE JONES
    DAVID BOWIE
    AYUMI HAMASAKI
    BRITNEY SPEARS
    MICHAEL JACKSON
    THE SPICE GIRLS
    etc

  64. lady caca is the Tonya Harding of the music industry January 1, 2012

    The biased, fake, demented media wanted to accuse Christina of copying Lady Newbie when she released BIONIC.

    How hilarious, it’s obvious nobody even listened to BIONIC. Lady Caca, Akon, and all the other idiots at Interscope probably paid the media to attack Xtina Legendera.

    BIONIC sounds NOTHING like anything Lady Caca has released. People are nuts.

    But it doesn’t matter. Xtina remains epic.

    New album coming soon, 2012.
    Stay mad, haters.

    bionic had a lot of great songs on it. i dont get how bionic has such bad reviews yet other albums, which are far worse and lyriclly have no value in the songs, get great reviews. is it that they hold christina to another level over some1 like a britney or rihanna? i mean yeah girl can sing, but that doesnt mean that she should have to subject herself to singing mariah/whitney/aretha/adele type songs for her whole career. anyways, there are far more great songs on that album, s** 4 breakfast, lift me up (which should have recived a grammy if not at lease a nom for best female pop vocalist) and you lost me. this album, unlike many others, spoke about having fun, up lifting ppl (in a fun athem way n ballad format), relationships (the good and the bad) s**, motherhood. s***, she even pimped out her own son to be on 2 tracks on the album. not myself tonight, though not her best, was not played on the radio, yet it had a great 1st week response then all of a sudden dj’s stopped playing it all together. something is fishy about that, if u ask me. n bad publisity, words getting turned around n being miss used diid not help her out at all n just what ppl wrote about her on the blogs n nasty s*** n stuff taken out of contect (ie gaga has balls meaning she is ballsy not that she is a man)

    Christina cant wait 2012 bionic was one of my faves

  74. Legendtina4life January 1, 2012

    Ahh Bionic. Both my favorite and least favorite songs from Xtina came from this album. I still dont know how I feel about this album. The ballads slayed me(You Lost Me is my favorite Xtina ballad), but I didnt like the up-tempos except Elastic Love, Prima Donna, and Glam. The out come of the album could have been better if RCA and her had chosen better singles. Plus I feel like she gave up on the album too soon.

    I have high hopes Xtina and RCA will pull through this year and deliver what the fans want.

  75. T***** GAGA S**** 4 MADONNA January 1, 2012

    @MADREMONSTER – Please find yourself a seat too. Flopga hasn’t been slaying anyone since 2010. Troll-face Gaga’s achievement are all either FAKE or FAME-based. Christina still got potential 10 years down the road because she’s a true artist, while your product gets SOLD OUT in just 3 years into her career. Face it. Flopga is over!

  76. JohnVidal January 1, 2012

    Those weren´t the best songs at all!!!!
    Some of the best were:
    S** for breakfast
    You lost me
    Lift me up
    Lttle dreamer

    The problem was that the alnum had too many songs, being most of the uptempo ones a total mess

    I love Christina, and bought all of her albums.

    Bionic, listening back, is very her but definitely not her best and cohesive. I think by trying to not “place herself in a box” with this album, she actually ended up placing herself in a box lol. There was just something wrong.

    Honestly, if some of the Burlesque tracks were edged in and some of these Bionic tracks were phased out, the CD would have been bomb.

  79. RIHERPES VS FLOPGA January 1, 2012

  84. dang January 1, 2012

    Yo bitchs take a seat. Bionic had some amazing songs on it, but it was incohesive, insincere and poorly promoted. I hate it when Xtina stans whine about how it was not promoted enough- Not Myself Tonight was everywhere, but the public expected something better from the one-time Voice of the generation than an awesome-but-unoriginal club banger with a plagiarized music video. You Lost Me was a terrible second single choice, it simply wasn’t bold enough or as sincere as it could have been, moreover, I believe it was summer in the US back then. Not to mention the music video was very ruminatory.
    Lady Gaga did not set the industry against her; it was Xtina’s diva personality and lack of awareness of the pop scene (“I live under a rock”) that was her downfall.

    Also people talking trash about Gaga is so damm funny. Why exactly? Cos she songwrites?plays piano? being on grammys from the beggining? sings live? her videos? Rihanna and pressed Xtina fans are too damm funny. The difference is Rihanna is crap and Xtina pressed stans shouldn´t feel that way about gaga or anybody else

  87. RATEDXXX(tricks are for kids) January 1, 2012

    why do people always want to blame other people for their favs flops?

    perez hilton and gaga had s*** to do with bionic floppin….

    xtina did all this to herself…..she has one of the best voices out there..but her attitude is the worst..

    she did promote bionic…how many shows did she do? how many interviews she did..magazine covers? alot

    bionic was a crappy album, point blank period..i dont care if her album sold 5 copies..if it was a great album to me, i would buy it…

  88. DONT TRY IT B**** January 1, 2012

    I love Christina Aguilera but blaming Beyonce, Gaga, Rihanna or ANYBODY for her album flopping is just not right. I believe we should analyze the whole album/promotion/timing ect and figure out why it didn’t do so well. This is the same thing I was trying to say yesterday before “KAT DELUNA FAN” came at me and Gaga as if a producer is what makes a whole album great. Christina needs to revamp herself and bust out with music that is amazing AND #1 making.

  89. RATEDXXX(tricks are for kids) January 1, 2012

    what does keri hilson and rihanna have to do with this post? i swear some people are just f****** pathetic

    whats the point of bringing up other peoples name that has s*** to do with this post?

    this is a post about xtina..where does rihanna and keri comes in at?

    i understand bringing up britney, since xtina has been in her shadow for 16, 17 yrs..hell i understand gaga’s name brought up..since gaga did in 3 yrs what xtinas been trying to do in 16 yrs

    but keri and rihanna? just to bashed them is pathetic as f***

  90. Cristina January 1, 2012

    Amberrussell, I really have to agree! I barely listen to any music on pop radio because of how mediocre and repetitive some of that crap is, but it blows my mind that the critics blasted “bionic”, when it can’t be any worst than some of the garbage I’ve seen hit #1 on the charts. These other female pop stars can get away with being ridiculously over the top and raunchy but Christina is supposed be all conservative and deep because she has a superior singing voice. What a load of crap! Bionic wasn’t a bad album, it just needed some songs edited out.

    My top five bionic tracks

    1)Prima Donna
    2)Woo Hoo
    3)S** for breakfast/morning dessert
    4)monday morning
    5)lift me up

  91. RATEDXXX(tricks are for kids) January 1, 2012

    it wasnt lack of promotion…….

    its the way xtina did the promotion….

    she did a couple of interviews dissing gaga….

    not only that..her video for not myself tonight was just, a knockoff of gaga, britney,

    and she was trying so hard to be sexxy..

    i was like damnn..u already have one of the best voices out there..why the hell are u naked in a video?

  92. Minajesty January 1, 2012

    The album was terrible. hopefully her next one isnt as bad

  93. Cristina January 1, 2012

    I lmao as some people saying that Christina’s in britney’s shadow. britney can’t sing! How is Christina inferior to someone who’s a lesser singer and songwriter than she is. britney can’t even dance anymore. Christina’s “Burlesque” dancing is 10x better than that stiff moving around she did on her femme fetale tour. She looks nice and her hair grew back but that’s about all I’ve seen from britney that has improved because she seriously lacks in the singing/dancing department nowadays and her albums are pretty much written/produced/created by euro hitmakers with little to no artistic vision/imput from her. I’m not a lady gaga fan but the girl does have talent and I do like some of her songs. However, to say she’s superior to Christina is also laughable. She was performing on national television with britney as her backup singer while Gaga was still in first grade. Some of these comments show how young some of you are!

  94. Legendtina4life January 1, 2012

    @DANG
    I agree with most of what you said. The choice of which singles to release and when to release them were bad decisions. But the media has been against Christina from day one, before she became a diva

  95. ChristinasCOMING January 1, 2012

    @ CRISTINA-

    Gosh thank you! It’s ridiculous how most of these people who post comments on here are young teenagers and they don’t know s***!

    When Christina makes an album, it has all of her input, artistic creation, direction etc…she writes her own sings with some co-writers but for the most part, each song she makes is a reflection of her. Unlike Britney, who barely writes her own music and doesn’t have control over anything in her life. Britney is a 30 year old child.

  96. ChristinasCOMING January 1, 2012

    Perez and Gaga had nothing to do with Bionic flopping????

    Google the conspiracy to destroy Chrisitna’s Bionic and you’ll read in one of the many articles about it that Perez was behind this camp 90% and Gaga’s team had a lot to do with it too. Gaga knew about it and didn’t stop it.

  98. Legendtina4life January 1, 2012

    Saying Gaga has accomplished more in 3 years than Xtina has in 16 years is just silly. Christina has not been out for 16 years yet and Gaga still has a way to go before she can achieve a fraction of what Christina has. People really under estimate the success Christina has had throughout her career.

  99. Legendtina4life January 1, 2012

    Gaga has accomplished alot in her career so far, but Christina accomplished more in her first year. She did the impossible by debuting at #1 on the BB200 when everyone believed it was going to be Diddy. She won Best New Artist at the Grammys when people believed it would go to Britney(surprisingly). She performed at the Super Bowl half time show the same year her album dropped. She was named Billboards female artist in 2000. Not to mention being compared to legends like Whitney, Celine, and Barbra. I can go on

  100. Cristina January 1, 2012

    @Christinascoming

    I get irritated at how much britney gets away with. The girl’s damn near lazy! She does barely anything in the studio or on stage anymore but because an army of stylists, trainers and dietiens make her look nice, people call that a “comeback”. What the hell kind of comeback is that? Her backup dancers are the ones doing all the work on stage and the “hitmakers” in the studio and she just shows up looking pretty and I’m supposed to believe she’s some pop legend in the same league as Michael and Madonna? OMG, I grew up on those people. They were truly trailblazers who above all else, were serious about their craft. They weren’t just sitting their being groomed to look nice while everyone else did the work! Christina is one of the few I love because she has a voice, a vision and intelligence. The whole package!

  101. RATEDXXX(tricks are for kids) January 1, 2012

    whos under estimating xtinas career?

    how is it silly to say gaga has achieve in 3 yrs what xtina has been trying to do for the past 12 yrs…not 16 i meant 12..lol

    even after 12 yrs she is still in britneys shadow…..

    umm gaga is a bigger star than xtina is right now..as much as people talk s*** about gaga, the bish has managed to make a name for herself..in 3 yrs….

  102. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) January 1, 2012

    Did someone say ‘Bionic’ was insencere??SIT!And the same person said that ‘You Lost Me’ is insincere!REALLY??’Bionic’ captured all sides of XTINA’s life!Motherhood, love, passion, s**, fashion and fame and the lyrics of ‘YLM’ were the most honest lyrics of any other ballad that year…it was a description of her situation…especially “we found our lives being changed”.How more sincere can that be?? 🙄

    At the end of the day Christina is better. She’s never had to resort to an all new level by selling any album of hers for free just to sustain sales. She’s never had to slash the price of any of her singles on itunes, amazon, google, etc…just to help boost chart positions.

    Christina is not in Britney’s shadow. Britney is under a conservatorship for Christ sakes! She has no control over her life, career or money. She barely has any input in her music, stage prescence, costumes, etc…At least Christina doesn’t need to get anybody’s permission or approval for anything. If anything, Britney needs to get on Christina’s level.

    I miss old Britney. It’s just that you can tell her heart is no longer in it and there’s nothing wrong with that but y’all need to quit saying Christina’s in her shadow when they are two completely opposite, different people. Britney may be a bit more successful than Christina is or has been but at the end of the day, Christina will have more longevity.

    If Britney was able to bounce back after 2 failed marriages, 2 kids, losing custody of them, getting thrown in the mental ward under 5150, shaving her head, going into public restrooms barefoot, driving with her newborn in her lap, busting somebody’s car window with an umbrella….gosh the list goes on. then Christina is able to bounce back and Christina’s meltdown was far less harsh than Britney’s.

    And as for Gaga, the b**** even said that Christina receiving so much negativity made her bigger…what a B**** ass thing to say. Gaga only blew up because of Perez and Gaga’s team trashing Christina.

  105. RATEDXXX(tricks are for kids) January 1, 2012

    perez has zro pull in the gay community…how do i know?

    when he called will i am a f*****, the gay community didnt back his ass..in fact they wanted him to aplogized to will iam…so what pull does perez have?

    The “shadow” excuse is tired tbh.People just say that because Christina wasn’t a media darling and because she took long breaks so she never capitalised on the success of ‘Stripped’, but does that mean that Britney is under Adele’s shadow just because Adele has more buzz now?Or under Katy’s shadow because she got more No.1’s or under Rihanna’s shadow because she booked more TV appearances?NO!Why?Because they’re different and there is space for everyone

    its ur opinion that xtina is better..obviously not everybody feels the same way..see the sales of bionic..

    and gaga didnt slash her album sales, amazon did..do ur research before u open ur mouth

    and even though britney is under control of her father..she is still outselling xtina….

    but last time i checked xtina was getting arrested for being drunk..her ass stays in the tabloid for being a drunk ass…maybe she needs her family to take control of her, so she can finally outsell britney

    and bionic tour got cancel before it even started , because nobody was buying tickets…

    12 yrs still under britneys shadow..now she has gaga to compete with..poor little tink tink

    first of all u cannot compare katy, rihanna, adele to britney…why because they are not her competition…

    britney is a legend in the music industry….legends doesnt have to compete with other people..point blank….britney is on a whole different level than adele, katy and rihanna..

    xtina came out as a real b****, thats why the media tore her ass….lets keep it real..what impact did she make in the pop world? f****** for tracks? acting a real b**** to her peers? she is more known for her b**** attitude and f****** for tracks, than her music

    when britney was having a meltdown, the media also tore on her ass..so dont act like xtina is the only victim of the media

    Xtina accomplished in 1 year more than Gaga has accomplished in 3. Xtina did this without the internet! #1 singes, #1 album, Best New Artist Grammy, 17 million. Albums sold off her debut. So how has Gaga accomplished more than Xtina in 3 years when Xtina did it in 1 year? Oh you guys are so young.. Legendtina over a decade in this game and relevant. Let’s see where you newcomer favs are in the next 2 years…

    When your favs are over a decade in the industry and still relevant then you can make comparisons! But till then the pop icon is going to slay 2012

    xtina is not innocent in the media backlash she has gotten..

    i hate when people wants to blame other people for their favs short comings…

    yes xtina is the better singer when it comes to britney..

    but before the meltdown..britney has always been the better entertainer,

    and people could relate to her more..because she had the better personality….

    bionic..was suppose to be xtinas come back..she f***** it up point blank..the media had s*** to do with it.

    she has a new album coming out..hopefully she humbled herself a little bit…

    OMG you are so stupid. How are you going to write Christina off or judge her based off sales of one album? Christina has sold 50 million worlwide with having only 3 albums out and that’s not including her “digital” sales. Gosh you are so clueless.

    Frankly, I’d rather be arrested for public intoxication than to be thrown in the mental ward, lose custody of my kids, and be placed under a conservatorship.

    Let’s not forget who beat who for Best New Artist at the 2000 Grammys. Obviously you were still a baby at that time and didn’t know that.

    Y’all are pathetic if you think Britney is more talented than Christina.

    Plus, I’d rather pay hundreds of dollars to go see a talented drinker on stage tear a song up than to go see somebody who can’t sing and moves around like a corpse and allows their dances, stage glitz, and costumes overshadow what they lack.

    F****** for tracks?WHO did she f***?Linda Perry?Sia?Scott Storch?DJ Premier?Le Tigre?Peaches?Ladytron?With all due respect, you took it way too far with this b*******.Christina’s collaborators are select and she’s handpicked them or they have handpicked her.She’s working with those people all the time.You can f*** for ONE track, but there is noone that has only worked with Christina once, so your BS are inaccurate, I’m afraid.If it was just a matter of her f****** for tracks, those producers wouldn’t go back to her for every album 🙄 You just really crossed the line…if you don’t have a good argument, then don’t start with this s*** please 🙄

    Anyway, Britney is a budding legend and Christina is an icon.Discrediting Christina by saying that she has had no impact on pop culture is laughable.I bet even her most passionate haters would laugh at that.

    And, quoting you, “first of all u cannot compare katy, rihanna, adele to britney…why because they are not her competition…”.The same way, you cannot compare Christina to Britney because they’re not each other’s competition.When Britney released ‘S**** 4 U’, Christina was recording ‘Fighter’ and those are 2 of my favorite pop song of all time.When Britney was recording ‘Gimme More’, Christina was releasing ‘Candyman’ and I love both songs as well.When Britney was recording ‘Hold It Against Me’, Christina released ‘You Lost Me’ and I love both of these songs, but do you think these songs have anything in common?NO!

    Why can’t we all just get along for God’s sake?You think there is no space for both of them?Well, then you’re not a proper fan of either of them!They’ve had 2 different careers, different lives, different music, different impact.Christina is on her 4th album, so no, she doesn’t have the kind of influence that Britney has now on her 7th album, but that’s an unfair comparison.Christina is an icon, a great artist, a brave woman and a show stopping vocalist, so even if you prefer Britney, let Christina be.She has her lane and she has cemented her position in the industry, hence there is still plenty of attention for her even after what was misrepresented to be the biggest flop of the decade.

    umm xtinas first album didnt sell 17 million in 2 yrs..it took 12 yrs to sell 17 million

    britneys album…………25 million……

    @ASAP (As Sincere As Possible

    first of all i never said britney was more talented than xtina…

    what impact did she make? u still didnt tell me? when she first came out she was doing exactly what everybody was doin…i have stripped and back to basics..so yes i do think both albums are different from what was out there…but she didnt make any impact in the pop world…

    xtina is known to f*** for track..look it up…

    icon and legend are on two different things….u can compare katy, adele, and rihanna to icons..but u cannot compare them to legends…anybody can become an icon..not just anybody can be a legend

    and i dont have anything with xtina..its her stans that irks me..blaming everybody and their mama for her failures….

  118. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) January 1, 2012

    Now, when it comes to an actually serious argument about Christina f****** up her big comeback, this is actually an interesting one because even as a fan I partly agree.Christina was on the right track, as LeTigre said in an interview, yet the label intervened for commercial tracks.This is when Tricky Stewart got involved.They wanted a surefire hit and there comes Tricky Stewart penning ‘Glam’, ‘Desnudate’ and ‘Prima Donna’ for her.The label decided that they would release ‘Glam’ as the 1st single and Christina announced it in an interview, but then Polow Da Don submitted ‘Not Myself Tonight’ to Sony and RCA thought this was the bonafied hit they were looking for.Christina liked it, so not only did the label put this song on the album, but they also booked Polow and his team to work with Christina just weeks before the album was supposed to be released.Suddenly, Polow Da Don, the man who was enlisted in the last 2 months of a 2-year series of recording session found himself credited for 4 tracks on the album, including the lead single 😮

    So, Christina’s mistakes are :
    1)letting her label book Polow Da Don 2 months before the release of the album
    2)letting them release NMT
    3)getting swept up by how she liked the track and forgetting that it was rushed
    4)allowing herself to scrap the initial plan
    5)announcing the initial decisions pre-maturely
    6)not ditching her label when they rejected her 1st lead single, a track called ‘Lollipop’ written by Sia.

    But all those mistakes are not necessarily her responsibilty.It’s the management that is supposed to take care of all the above and not the artist, so Christina did what she was supposed to do : BEING AN ARTIST!She was recording for a long time to find the right material, she was willing to work hard, she followed her gut instinct, she risked with Sia, Focus, Ladytron and Goldfrapp and she promoted the final album, even though it wasn’t what she wanted.She did her damn job and RCA knows it, which is why they made her a priority now.

  119. There is enough place for every artist – Stans stop hating others January 1, 2012

    I think the main reason behind BIONIC’s flop was the disaster in her PRIVATE life.
    Her marriage turned out to be really really bad by the time of releasing and promoting of the material.

    (Bad first single choice, the Lady Gaga conspiracy were thing that could have been corrected… look at Rihanna’s Rated R album – flopping first singles, than huge success follower singles)

    So you may have no soul and no heart when you are talking about that Christina is a FLOPPING B****. She LOST SOMEBODY who she had felt that her one and only men for a lifetime, the man who inspired most of “Back to Basics” love songs (which album was artistically one of the bests of the decade!!!) who is the father of her child, who was meant to be her husband (almost) forever.

    I don’t wish to anyone of you such depressive times in your life, but when these kind of situations come to your life then think back to these hurtful writings you wrote about Christina! You have no souls, you have no heart!

    @ChristinasCOMING

    of course i have to be stupid for not agreeing to ur comments…rolls eyes..

    i dont see the point ur trying to make bringing up britneys mental state?

    how is that relevant to the topic at hand?

    xtina sold 50..britney over 100 million..thats not even counting her digital sales

    so ur point?

  121. RATEDXXX(tricks are for kids) January 1, 2012

    umm her marriage turned out bad because she cheated on her husband..so

    i’m suppose to feel bad for her because she f***** up her marriage?

    ok…..

    i have a heart..i just dont feel sorry for people who cause their own issues in their life…..

    people are on here bashing britneys mental state..and thats ok? get the f*** out of here
    im done with this b*******

  122. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) January 1, 2012

    @RATEDXXX Christina is KNOWN for f****** for tracks?Don’t go there, please.What is the reputable reliable source?Eminem’s diss song from the era when he was always under some influence or ATRL?Those are your sources?If you manage to get me a legit interview by someone who collaborated with her (not some “insider” or some “third party source”, someone that worked WITH her) that shows she f***** for tracks, I’ll admit it, but since this is pure b******* I doubt you’ll get anything for me.And if you find something, I’d prefer an interview by someone who is objective towards her not someone who’s bitter, like Scott Storch or a guy she fired for example

    Anyway, wanna know her impact?She’s billed as the voice of the generation, she’s considered an icon for all the looks she rocked from 2001 to 2009 (even her big messy wigs that Katy Perry made fun of are becoming a signature of hers), she’s respected for her transformations, from clean-cut teenage popstar to grown woman without clothes, yet with a message to throwback diva to ‘bionic’ woman, she’s one of the most instantly recognizable popstars of her generation, she’s the 2nd best selling artist in terms of singles from 2000 to 2010, she’s sold 50 million copies ww with 4 albums, 1 seasonal album, 1 Spanish album and 1 collection and she’s got 5 Grammy’s.

    To doubt her impact would be foolish.I think you were the one who said that noone forgot her entire career just because ‘Bionic’ fell flat.Well, by denying her impact, you’re doing nothing but THAT!If ‘Bionic’ was a hit, I bet you wouldn’t deny her impact at all.

  123. ChristinasCOMING January 1, 2012

    @ RATED XXX

    Good Lawd child…You really are proving how stupid and dysfunction you really are. I am going to break this down one more time and then I’m done and will not continue to respond to you.

    You keep saying that Christina is in Britney’s shadow. They are two completely different artists musically and professionally. I used Britney’s mental state and conservatorship as an example that you should not say that Christina is in her shadow. Christina is more mentally stable than Britney is. Next, Britney has sold more because she has more albums and singles out than Christina. But Christina is going to have her time to shine this year and remind us why we fell in love with her.

    The media has always viewed Christina as a major threat to everybody else because of her voice and music which is why they always pit her against everybody else. When you have a voice like Christina’s, that leaves little room for other female acts to make break their way into the industry and nobody likes that.

  124. ChristinasCOMING January 1, 2012

    @ RATED XXX

    One more thing before you respond.

    Nobody knows what really happened to Christina’s marriage. For you to make accusations that she cheated and claim to be true just shows how oblivous you are. Christina did reveal what made her marriage end but did not go into details and until somebody reveals them, you have no right to claim she cheated.

  125. Shaun January 1, 2012

    thank you showing Xtina some love!
    I LOVE bionic and found myself listening to it on repeat for a long te when it came out. I do think it was weird how it seemed to be doing fairly well on the radio but then. something happened around the time woohoo was being released as a single.
    but I mean people overlook the fact that 2 of her singles made it to number 1 on the dance charts!!!!!!!!!!
    this album was solid and there are some amazing tracks on it.
    anyone dissing Christina and her albums have not even given it a listen… I bet.
    she is here to stay and will come back stronger tha ever on the voice and with her new album! team Xtina for life!

  126. gotintoririfever18 January 1, 2012

  127. Xadax January 1, 2012

    Gaga couldn’t pull it through when she was ounger, she had to be older. While Xtina had to grow up more than what her age was & became famous earlier.
    Suck on that!

  128. RATEDXXX(tricks are for kids) January 1, 2012

    @ASAP (As Sincere As Possible

    dallas austin and scott torch who has worked with xtina, said she f***** for tracks…google it..u will see video interview where they said it…

    if scott torch was bitter, why did she work with him after the fact that he claimed she f***** him for tracks?

    and she is the voice of the generation and yet she has to get naked to sell records?

    the getting naked part should be left for people who has less talent than she does..so how can i take her seriously when i see her naked ass…

    like i stated earlier, even if bionic sold 5 copies, and i liked the album i would have bought it….so bionic sales doesnt mean s*** to me….

    i dont care if ur my fav or not, if ur stuff is good i will buy it….

  129. RATEDXXX(tricks are for kids) January 1, 2012

    @ASAP (As Sincere As Possible

    i still dont think she made an impact in the pop world..

    ur answer is, she has the best voice….katy perry wore a wig she wore…..thats not an impact…

    an impact means she did something that nobody has done before, she change the game…

    example..

    mariah carey was the first singer to mix r&b with hip hop….thats an impact

    what has xtina done, that changed the game? she doesnt have the best voices out there..she has 1 of the best voices out there..thats not an impact

  130. arfa January 1, 2012

    xtina has been in the game for nearly 14 years! i really doubt gaga will still be relevant and talked about on the internet in 2022…

    lol…i cannot take ur comments seriously….ur calling me a child..and yet u cannot have a mature convo with somebody without calling them stupid…thats making me laugh for real….i mean really…

    no u used britney being mentallly unstable to bash her..lets keep it real…

    but even though britney has mental issues..she still outselling xtina……………so whats ur point?

    the media has viewed xtina as a threat to everybody? what?

    how come they never saw xtina as a threat to jessica simpson, mandy more, pink, mariah, janet, who ever else was around ..how come they only put her up against britney?

    you make zero sence..with the media viewed her as threat..thats the biggest b******* ive ever heard a stan say…

  132. RATEDXXX(tricks are for kids) January 1, 2012

    @ RATED XXX

    You dumbass. Dallas said that Joss Stone goes into the studio and f**** for tracks. All he said was that he used to f*** Christina and that she got around. That was decades ago you ass. And who’s to say that Dallas is lying and not just saying that because he liked Christina but she went with Jordy and that pissed him off and he isn’t just making that s*** up!

    So what if somebody is getting laid? You should take somebody’s statements and comments about somebody else and think it’s ok to put them in your own words. That’s how drama gets started.

    dallas austin stated that xtina was f****** him for tracks…that he feels sorry for her ex husband for marrying a H**..hes words not mine….

    Dallas did not make those comments about Xtina,,,,he made them about Joss. You should really consider re-reading what he said.

    All he said about Christina was that she got around. No where did he say that she used to f*** for tracks.

  138. MRDIVABITCH January 2, 2012

    The quality of the song writing in that album is mediocre at best.

  139. AmbeRussell January 2, 2012

    christina aguilera recored 1 of the most powerful ballads of the past decade with so much meaning that is still played on the radio, 10 yrs later n sung all the time. and if christina was truly in britney’s shadow, well i rather be there winning the top awards and getting the honor by thelegendary singers. britney came 1st thus why she got the most success. the xtina, then jessica then mandy as we saw, the success went less girl after girl. but to say she is in her shadow is dumb bc christina has 5#1s, all of which were #1 for 2+ weeks, best new artist she won over britney, praised for her live performances, by her peers n critics alike, performed along side many great singers, performed at the superbowl twice(thought 1 was an epic failed) sung the national anthem 2 times for the 2010 nba finals, sold out tours etc. won a vma b4 britney. anyways, 2 different artist, 1 took control of her career n made artisitc music, the other released album after album to try n get a hit, n make great club music. chris was queen of the singles while brit was queen of the albums. none of britney early music gets any type of air play today while u can still catch what a girl wants n run to u n dirrty n of course beautiful any day as well as the back to basic stuff. they dont play oops, or baby or against the music or s****. so being in the shadows shows that it may be better bc it means ur music lives on 10 yrs later n not for the moment

    yeah. i dont get it. i mean there are some stuff that isnt GREAT, but songs like lift me up ALONE should give the album 6stars out of 10. i mean the album isnt great, but hey they had something to say about stripped. i mean what does she gotta do yet some1 can sing songs that have repeadative lyrics that lack meaning n songs with no depth n only 10 songs n is not the money worth yet they are call great. the critics have a huge say in albums. my friend loves trey songz but hated his last album but that album had the best over all reviews n best selling. they judge these albums differently n based on how the public feels about said person they are review. example chris brown b4 07 album score of 69, 09 album, score of 39 n latest album 52. the media doesnt like her, they said she copied gaga, yet nothing sounds like gaga n they twisted her words n made her seem like a bigger b**** n then bashed her.

  145. xxxxtttiiinnnaaa January 2, 2012

    the only reason why bionic flopped is because number 1 christina’s marriage was falling apart and number 2 the burlesque movie….christina aguilera focus more on her burlesque movie and forgetting about promoting Bionic. Its her first movie and putting all her energy on the movie alone, she got really excited about the movie but to tell you honestly i think bionic was one of the best albums of 2011 next to katy perry and adele. She doesnt really care about the sales anymore because she is established already…i think she is the only artist that sings year after year at the grammy even without promoting her album…all those tribute to other legends just proved that she is something in the music industry. She should have released Bionic after the burlesque movie, it would have been a hit! ohh ohh by the way, do u guys think that lady gaga is already getting her karma??? i remembered that she told everyone that born this way is the album of the decade but what happened? all her single flopped!!! the only artist that is consistent to me is katy perry, all of her songs was good but she doesnt perform good live…i remember her firework song, if christina had that song she will do justice with it.

    “Christina Aguilera, Joss Stone… all these b****** be f*****’ for tracks,” says the Grammy Award winning producer in the video. “You go in the studio with the regular girls like Ciara and them, they just want to get their work done. F*** all these b****** f*****’ for tracks.”

    This is the statement that I should take seriously??LOL!!We ALL know Christina was messy in 2001/2002 when she was 20 years old!!We ALL know it!But she didn’t f*** for tracks.She was one of the most popular popstars with a 15-million selling debut and 2 Grammy’s…the tracks were coming in her doorstep without her trying 🙄 If you seriously think she needed to f*** for tracks, you’re delusional.

    People are still bringing up quotes about Christina’s bad behaviour in 2002!10 years ago for God’s sake!She has released an apology song (‘Mercy On Me’) and a whole album dedicated to her husband (‘B2B’).Can’t people just forgive her?It’s actually pretty ridiculous that I have to ask people to forgive a 20-year old girl for doing 50% less fooling around than all the simple 20-year old girls in the world, but anyway…

    And what you described is not impact.Changing the game defines a legacy, this is why it’s not easy to become a legend because it’s hard to change the game.Impact is about people knowing your name, radios playing all your songs, the industry bowing down to you and acknowledging your influence.And what I know is that, despite having her last solo hit more than 5 years ago, my 5-year old cousin, my dubstep/techno obsessed classmates and my 44-year old mother know most of her songs.When people know who you are, there you have it, IMPACT.

  148. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) January 2, 2012

    Oh and to completely erase any stupid claims about Christina f****** for tracks, both Dallas Austin and Scott Storch have been to jail, for drugs possession and for not paying the child support respectively…SLICK!These are the reputable reliable sources that I asked for?After destroying his career all by himself, Dallas Austin had to apologise to Christina’s team for that story.And FYI, nobody took him seriously.Just google the story and look at the comments (btw, this story was not released by any big blog or magazine, let alone TV network).People are mostly laughing at Dallas Austin and they know he’s lying!

    Christina never needed to f*** for tracks because her label always gave her everything she wanted.People forget that she’s sold 60 million records ww (including ‘Bionic’,’Burlesque’ and ‘Moves Like Jagger’).Why would she need to f*** for tracks?It doesn’t make any sense, does it?If she was a nobody, of course she would f*** for tracks, but she’s a household name (she was paid 1 million to perform at a private concert just months after ‘Bionic’ flopping).

    These stories are certified b*******, I’m afraid 😳

    Rated XXX- Christina got her record deal by taking a tape recorder into her little bathroom in Wexford Pennsylvania and singing a Whitney Houston song, hitting the high E got her the song “Reflection” for the Mulan Soundtrack, which got her a GOLDEN GLOBE Nomination (her first of 2) at age 17 before even being signed, (THAT’S a true cinderalla story on how to get a record deal) Now… IMPACT: I listened to a lot of different s*** growing up. Christina was one of them, and Christina is also one of the only ones I continue to listen to a decade+ later. Christina’s talent and quality, relateable music will be listened to and supported by me no matter what age. Especially “Stripped”, the music and the message is timeless. Are people going to seriously be listening to Gaga’s repetitive nursery rhymes in 10 years? I’ll be jazz-ing it up to “Back to Basics”, working out to “Fighter”, getting dressed to “Not Myself Tonight”, “Vanity”, “Glam” etc consoling relationship blues in “Walk Away”, “Impossible”, “You Lost Me”, “I Am”, “I Will Be”, “Bound To You” (want me to go on?)…I will not be fist pumping to “Just Dance” or singing “Government Hooker” or any of that “music”. You will all grow out of your dance music phase, I promise. Luckily for me Christina’s work is timeless no matter what genre she’s dipping into. & she always makes sure to include those amazing ballads.

    Christina works on her music genuinely and takes her time, draws genuine inspiration and takes time off to live her life and then draw from her experiences in her music and vision. She doesn’t write songs in “5 minutes” like Gaga claims just to write songs and release albums every year. Christina is NOT/never has been in this industry to be like Britney, to have the #1 most selling who-gives-a-s*** award, she’s here to sing like she has been since she first picked up her moms shampoo bottle and pretended it was a microphone and a towel spread across the floor was her stage. She’s just here to sing and express her artistry. If a child prefers a public relations cooked up fraud clown with a lobster on her head (copied from Isabella Blow, by the way) like Gaga, you go right ahead. If you can’t listen to “Stripped” and be inspired, connect and hear the true sincerity and pain/beauty in those songs she created it’s no wonder you’d probably rather vibe out to some crap like “let’s have some fun this beat is sick I wanna take a ride on your disco stick”.

    Now what’s with this lyrics/albums before have no meaning BS? You say you have Stripped, I think you need to listen to it again. That entire album is one big emotional “love yourself, be yourself, respect yourself, be proud, wear what you want, say what you want, be strong, be an underdog, you’re BEAUTIFUL” statement. the 1st album she was able to write her own songs on and truly show herself. (hence the name/concept thought up by her, STRIPPED) Literally the only song that isn’t would be “Dirrty” which was more of her shedding her skin and not being afraid to be a risk taker and be herself, which management wasn’t letting her be before, which is why it was the lead single basically. Everything else is f****** solid & you know it. Stripped is everything “Born This Way” was desperate to be when it comes to message. Now, wtf at “promo interviews dissing gaga”…All her interviews from Bionic era where she was ASKED about Gaga she PRAISED Gaga, she said SO many nice things about Gaga and she even released a statement on her own website saying there’s room for everyone on our ipods and we should all support all the strong women out there (what did Gaga do/say? nothing, like always, she had Perez do the s*** talking for her while she remained silent)

    Christina has 5 Grammy’s, first American artist to ever win a Latin Grammy, she was singing the National Anthem at Pittsburgh Penguins (including being the Penguins good luck charm in the Stanley Cup finals when she was NINE YEARS OLD), Pittsburgh Pirates, singing/acting/performing on National TV on the Mickey Mouse Club, winning Best New Artist Grammy over Brit a few months after she came out with Genie in A Bottle and getting her 1st Golden Globe Nom unsigned, tributing Whitney Houston (who said “nobody can do it like Christina”) Her tribute to James Brown is one of the top performances in Grammy history, still being asked to tribute legends like Aretha Franklin…You act like Christina has something to prove, but she’s already established. Even Mariah had her flop with Glitter, both the movie & album, so bad that Mariah got DROPPED from Sony. She bounced back, so will Christina, and Christina has not hit the lows that Mariah & Britney have (both checking into mental health facilities). She is recognized & respected in this industry in a way that Britney never will be in forms of talent, hard work and plain legitimacy. & no I don’t hate Britney. Numbers arguing can only get you so far, there’s always someone with better numbers, but arguably/obvious less talent.

    it’s a ridiculous claim that negative press doesn’t affect an artist’s record sales; especially when it’s relentless, manufactured and highly exaggerated. with christina it was digging up feuds from many years ago, peppering remarks xtina made regarding gaga to exploit an already sticky situation brought on by the false claim that christina was ripping off gaga when the opposite was true.

    add to this vertually no press attention at all for ‘bionic’ from magazines, tv celeb shows and other media sources once christina’s personal appearances for ‘bionic’ stopped.

    the media pitted christina and britney against one another from the gitgo and britney was always the media fave. they had strong hopes of her becoming the next madonna.

    during britney’s meltdown the media rode her ass for short time until they saw her record sales (blackout) were seriously heading south. they eased up quick and deluged her with pity praise. the music industry climbed on board with pity awards by the truckload. the media gave her a pass even though her tour performances were/are pathetic and total crap.

    they hyped her to kept her relevent halted her career from the severe downward spiral. if she sneezed or shed a hair it was “icon britney this…”legend britney that”. amazing how many can be sucked in by hype (or in christina’s case scared off).

  166. irene46 January 3, 2012

    christina hasn’t been blessed with the acts of mercy bestowed on britney. they’ve pummeled her non-stop. they’ve inflated every misstep to ginormous proportions(the star spangled banner and the aretha franklin tribute).

    if exaggerating wasn’t enough they sank to lying about her being arrested when she wasnt’ even booked and was only held for her own protection. when her movie ‘burlesque’ turned out to be relatively successful they lied about it being a flop.

    it was really strange how they even avoided giving ‘burlesque’ focus when the publicist was suspiously murdered after leaving the ‘burlesque’ premier.

    anyone who claims media shut out or only negative press doesn’t affect sales has no idea what they’re talking about. postive exposure is highly influential or companies wouldn’t waste time and money on promotion.

    BIONIC WASNT THE FLOP EVERYONE THOUGHT IT WAS

    you realize that we do live in a place when everyone downloads music illegally, and bionic was the most illegally downloaded album of 2010 and it sold a lot on itunes. not myself tonight was 3rd most downloaded video in 2010.

    there was lack of promotion of Bionic because she had her own idea for bionic back in 2007 and started with “Lightness & Darkness” but had to scrap most of the material and start again because RCA Records wanted her to compete with interscope and gaga so refused to do a lot of promotion because it wasnt the concept she wanted and she wanted to be distanced from mainstream music

    You guys need to read ‘Is Christina Aguilera The Wicked Witch Of Pop Music’ . When I read it, it dawned me on how xtina’s image has been dirtied so much in the press.

    Becauseshe and britney were being pitted against each other, and because Britney was ‘miss american dream’, Christina made the mistake of trying to play her foil which though worked on Stripped gave critics and parents even more of a chance to choose Britney as being the more ‘family friendly’ one.

    Just google it, really enjoyed it.

  170. irene46 January 3, 2012

    btw the media tried to concoct the rumors that christina was feuding with some of the cast of ‘burlesque’ which cher denied. she said she found christina very sweet and easy to get along with. cher is not the type to bite her tongue about anything.

    one of the male hosts on the ama where christina and m5 performed ‘moved like jagger’ recently threw out the notion to adam levine that he and christina were at each others throats. when adam denied it the host looked disappointed and stated “yeah, but it makes for good television”.

    ‘entertainment weekly’ mag even claimed ‘the voice’ might not succeed long without come sort of controversy. just for the sake of being haters, ‘ew’ also burned christina by saying nicole (former pussycat doll) would be the most useless judge on tv if it wasn’t for the existence of christina aguilera. this kinda crap throwing is unjustified since it’s obvious she contributes to the show’s success.

  171. irene46 January 3, 2012

    how did christina play britney’s foil? they even did a presentation together on award show. that ‘good witch, bad witch’ image seemed conjured up by the media because of their love for britney.

  172. irene46 January 3, 2012

    correction: they even did a presentation on ‘an’ award show.

  173. La January 3, 2012

    why thank you @ LaLa 🙂

    @Irene46 THANK YOU! I can’t believe anyone could possibly think negative media/press doesn’t affect sales or perception of a celebrity/their product. (especially ruthless, repetitive, smear campaign, jumping on the negative bandwagon type bad press)…it’s the #1 thing that DOES affect it/them! That’s why marketing and PR exists in the first place. If affects ALL products, companies, people, everything. Media is paid to favor, support/write positive stories/good reviews etc. from certain celebs all the time…sometimes it’s obvious, sometimes it’s exposed. Christina has been a media target for negativity most notably and most severe when Bionic came out, actually it started a few months before it was even released. The hate campaign started on Perez’s site in favor of that fraud Gaga, and we all know this. Gaga got her upper hand, the press spinned in her favor, her and her team got what they wanted and Perez got a huge UP in site traffic and hits. The press can spin ANYTHING. Christina’s “Not Myself Tonight” was highly anticipated and was the NUMBER ONE added song on radio…and then what happened? She released the video (which besides it being obvious, she stated was her homage to Madonna, because she was her pioneer for being a strong woman/freeing her inhibitions and not feeling shame for expressing her sexuality…see, she gives credit and reasoning behind her inspirations, unlike gaga ms. “I make my own clothes, no one inspires me I’m only inspired by myself etc”) and the Gaga comparisons hit full steam ahead. Despite the fact that the video was Madonna. How funny is that, that a video homaging Madonna, gets called out as a Gaga copy LOL inadvertently proving Gaga is a complete Madonna wannabe. But when you’re a 12 year old and actually have the lack of self respect and personal integrity required to embarass yourself by calling a 23 year old hack job your “mother monster” and yourself a “little monster”, I guess you wouldn’t remember Madonna’s work or even bother trying to do any actual research before you believe some paid gossip blog’s swayed opinion.

    @ lax…

    flop flop flop?! you hope!! btw just what media source are you working with?

  176. irene46 January 3, 2012

    @ la…

    you put it so well even these hardcore christina haters who want to deny the media of any blame at all for the crash of ‘bionic’ should concede your truth.

    @ rated xxx…

    you claim perez has no sway but when his bomb throwing was teamed with that of every other christina hating media source hemust have looked damn credible to the gullible.

  177. Lalala January 3, 2012

    Bionic is, in my opinion Christina’s strongest album. It was the first time she really took risks with her actual music, she went experimental & had fun with it too!

    Bionic was a narcissistic, bold & arrogant album, but that was the point of it! The whole thing was unapologetically loud from start to beginging.

    Personally my favourite tracks were Bobblehead, Birds of Prey, I Am & Vanity

    Bobblehead was a complete hot mess, but that was exactly how it was supposed to be, everything from the lyrics to the beat just oozed trash & tack, I think that was the beauty of the song.

  178. riri January 4, 2012

    @ rated x

    YET again here you are acting like you know an artist personally! how about you take a sit and pick up a telephone and check yourself in hospital.

    It is digusting for you to claim xtina was f****** for track like you know. NEWSFLASH: you dont! and f*** off and get a life

  179. BeyoncesHubby January 5, 2012

    1)Why is Beyonce’s name being brought up in a post that has absolutely NOTHING to do with her? I see she STAYS on y’alls minds!

    2) Bionic was a TERRIBLE album. The only song I half like on that album is “Woo Hoo”. The songs are very basic and Christina showed no artistic growth what-so-ever!

    3) At the end of the day, regardless of what Perez Hilton or anyone else says, it is up to the public to buy music. And obviously the public felt that Bionic was not worthy of their hard-earned money.

    4) Christina is an amazing vocalist. However, her vocals aren’t cut out for electro pop beats and dancehall music. She needs to stick with what works for her and stop trying to be something she’s not.

    5) You can say all you want about Lady Gaga, but at the end of the day, she’s relevant and found success in her own right. Bashing her on a blog site is doing nothing but maybe making a few people mad and making yourself look dumb, ESPECIALLY if all you have to say are insults. If you’re gonna debate with someone, bring something more to the table than “She’s ugly, dumb and stupid”. Remember, you represent your fave at ALL times. Try to sound like you have some education.

    6) I sincerely wish Christina the best with this upcoming era. Her best album IMO is “Back To Basics” and I would love to hear some good music being played on the radio again. <3

    Bionic was the 2nd most illegally downloaded song of 2010 – nuff said haters.

  181. Kyle January 5, 2012

    “Bionic” really wasn’t a terrible album by any means, it just came at perhaps the worst time possible. Some of these tracks could’ve easily been hits but instead they chose “Not Myself Tonight” as the first single? Terrible choice. Another thing that didn’t help this albums cause was that I think Christina’s image was too similiar to Gaga’s and whenever she was asked about it she would give a snotty response.

  182. LaLa January 5, 2012

    @Kyle

    Nope, you are wrong about “whenever she was asked about it she would give a snotty response”. in many Radio Interview when she promote Bionic, they asked about GaGa comparison many many times… & yet she’s not being snotty at all. in fact She’s being supportive of GaGa.

  183. Small_Angel January 6, 2012

    Love Christina Aguilera!
