Following her own ‘malfunction’ during a performance of the US National Anthem, Christina Aguilera is all too aware of how social media can be used to berate and belittle artists like herself.
So, in support of a Ms. Harper Gruzins– who performance of the song at an FC Dallas soccer game made her the subject of online taunting- Ms. Aguilera has penned a letter to the brave performer.
Read below…
Upon hearing of Harper’s turmoil, ‘The Voice Within’ singer wrote:
“Harper, you had the courage to sing in front of thousands of people and I applaud you. Keep your head up high and keep trying. You have nothing to be ashamed of”.

Ppl really need to chill on attacking people who can’t sing like national anthem like whitney or a beyonce .. Its a hard song to sing and we should just be applauding those that have the courage to do it! Its crazy how adults can so so immature ..
Yeah yeah like legendary Whitney Houston you mean right? 🙂 who is the other one?
xtina girl please. no matter how you spin it that gurl sounded like a moose giving birth in slow motion. #a mess
lol.
sometimes people could be so mean … she’s only 11 come on
christina is such a sweetheart
Who allowed her to preform? Was there no sound checks prior? Why was she singing so slow?
My goodness people are always trying to make something
out of nothing.
look at all the people reaction lmao!!! The h** need to take several seats. Let the pro like Rihanna get the job done 😉
HA! I’d love to see Rihanna attempt to ‘sing’ the national anthem. She’d probably do a nice autotuned poptrash version.
I’d love to see those people who attack others get out there in front of the world and sing that song in front of others and not mess up and see what its like. It’s amazing how much focus is placed on females in the social media for their weight, flubbing lyrics, partying, etc…whatever the case might be but you NEVER see men being treated like some anti Christ to music.
that was bad!!!!!! I can understand if she miss a few parts of the song but she mess up as soon she open her mouth!!!
The majority of the people attacking her singing aren’t singers like this little girl, if you’re a singer then you better make sure you know how to sing well, point blank! There are no if’s, and’s, or but’s about it.
THEN STOP HAVING PEOPLE SING THE GODAMN NATIONAL ANTHEM
It was pretty Bad! Hope she Survives it! Teasing can break your spirit!
she no singer singing like that…NO way look at the reaction of those people….that was really bad….. she did’t mess up once…she mess up through the whole entire song
I read that a few days ago. It was nice of Christina. She has some bad experience on National anthems performances, so it was definitely appropriate for her to support the girl. I haven’t even watched the girl’s performance, but no matter how embarassinly bad it was (judging by the comments here), bullying is NOT justified.
People u missed my point like u always do. It doesnt matter how bad of a singer you are. The courage alone to stand in front of thousands of people to sing that song is very brave to me. Like I said even people who can’t sing should try it just to see how it feels to be attacked and have your life threatened. I bet some of you can’t even sing but yet you’re sitting back judging others because they can’t. Why don’t you try doing what this little girl did and see how you like being attacked.
She actually sounded like Christina when she was that age
lol
christina was much much better at that age.
Her voice isn’t that bad but seriously, didn’t they listen to her sing beforehand. This was the longest national anthem ever lol. Awkward! I applaud this little girl for singing in front of a huge crowd though and it looked like she enjoyed it.
I think that with a few years in vocal training this young girl should be fine, I mean leave her alone people she is only eleven. Whoever set that girl up like that should be fired.
Well I´m with Chistina on this. Poor little girl
That was the longest National Anthem I´ve ever heard though 🙂
The girl gave her best and it didn’t work, so let it be people. It was really nice of Christina for reaching out to this girl. Hopefully the girl can move on from this.
Well, you could tell the little girl was influenced by Christina…similar vocal inflections and placement…
she had christina’s style with gross exaggerations of christina’s flaws.
EXACTLY!
But that’s the problem with kids; they can only copy (good and bad things). It’s not till they are at least 16 that they can begin to form their own individual sound.
