Christina Aguilera was one of many in the building at the Staples Center who paid tribute to Kobe Bryant at his memorial.
The songbird’s offering came in the form of song, when she took vocal flight with a touching performance of ‘Ave Maria.’
Her rendition was was performed in Italian and was watched by Bryant’s family, colleagues, friends, and fans. As well as millions watching live online.
Re-live her emotional salute to Kobe and his daughter Gianna below…
i just knew this was gonna be a screamfest but i was pleasantly surprised. thank you xtina for showing restraint and respect for the viewers and audience members.
Clearly you know absolutely nothing about singing or vocals. Xtina never puts on a “screaming match”, she has a naturally powerful voice. So STFU.
No girl. She screams outside her natural range and damages, strains and dries out her vocal chords. She screams.
Xtina can sing. Love her
She sings it from the heart, beautiful voice
Christina can still sing mellow. For example, her song with “A Great Big World” entitled “Say Something” a top charting single where Xtina doesn’t really belt high notes. Just soft, beautiful and mellow tone.
???
Why did the camera man pan to Beyonce once xtina started singing? Ugh. People can be so messy.
I totally agree
I guess maybe because she had a cover of the song
Still wack of him to do so
So you conveniently forgot that beyonce has thrown shade at Xtina’s singing in the past, the cameraman was only acknowledging beyonce’s messiness and insecurlty.
*insecurity
What did Beyonce say about Xtina? Never knew this.
This was some unnecessary shade and nonsensical at that. Beyoncé has had an Opera singer for a vocal coach for years and she obviously knows very well how to sing. I will leave it at that.
Agreed. That was Wendy Williams cameramen messy.
Lol @onlyfacts. Damn Wendy Williams cameraman ???
Well Beyonce is a Christina fan and she opened for her tour back in the day. They like each other.
Yeah i think so, that was during destiny child days and Christina Aguilera was one her peak like Ariana Grande now lol
It’s not always bout Beyoncé!!! No shade but Xtina’s vocal outshines her anytime anyday! U sensitive b-I-t-c-h
I agree on this one
I was also thinking about that. They make it very shady like they have beef to each other or something.
LMFAO
Very shady
Beyonce and Xtina are ♥️♥️
Hope Beyoncé takes notes on how to be a real vocalist
Lol she won’t. Her roaches have her thinking that her vocals are on level with Whitney’s when in reality she can barely keep up with Xtina. LMFAO.
Omg lol. The beyhive are going to be mad at your comment.
Preach!
Sounds beautiful ?
She killed it. Great placements and belts
Christina Aguilera is really a good singer. She sang so beautifully that touched me to the heart. I cried.
???
I saw Xtina way back in 2003 on her Dirrty tour, and between her tacky costumes and white girl dreds, stripper-style dance moves and hand painted sets, I can’t, with integrity, say the show was better than On The Run. On The Run is by far the sleekest, most professional and engaging show I’ve ever seen. But Xtina, bless her assless chaps, managed to do something Beyoncé can’t: she connected.
Her Experience Tour in Vegas is good. I watched it few months ago. She’s a good singer.
Agreed
Christina is awesome. Good performance. That’s dope feel the energy super strong.
Beyoncé listening carefully and taking singing lessons lol but Xtina should do Lift Me Up, her best rendition
Lol beyonce probably listening to see if there is any problem with pitch or tone
Lift Me Up would been perfect!!!! That song fit her voice perfectly
I love that song. #Bionic #LiftMeUp
The Queen ? The Voice ?hands down one of the greatest singer of our generation, our time, our ears will ever have the pleasure of hearing?
Yassss, talk that talk to me
She was amazing!! RIP Kobe, Gianna and everyone who lost their lives <3
The orchestra is drowning her out a bit. Still a touching moment though.
Susie, I thought so too.. I thought it was a little loud, especially with the choir for Beyoncé’s performances too.
Yeah I noticed it too
The first note in the orchestry sound like “beautiful”!! Love xtina ?
chills everywhere . beautiful ?
Ommg i cryyyyyy with her performance
RIP Kobe and to others that passed away on that accident.
She sounded like an angel. Just perfection ?
She’s all about big and strong vocals , that’s what she loves to do. However , I appreciate the soothing and warm vocals approach she took on this performance.
2:00 ?❤❤
Great performance ?
How come in this site that there’s always a lot of comments and pings when the topic is all about Camila, Taylor, Nicki, Normani and Cardi B
I’m not used to it. This used to be Beyonce, Rihanna, Britney, Xtina or Pink site. Lol
Lots have changed
Because they are some old broads now, sweetie. Times change.
Looks to me ThatgrapeJuice became Camila Cabello fansite. Look at comments on article about her. They should change the name to ThatCamilaJuice.net or That Havana.net lol
You guys tried it but Xtina and Aguilera like each other.
You mean Xtina and yonce? Lol
Xtina is the voice of our generation
I love her new album Liberation. It’s under rated but good quality.?
She performed latin version, not Spanish. She gave a simple but wonderful performance.
Yes it’s latin. They confirmed it in foxnews
I miss the Genie in A Bottle, Come on over/ What a girl Wanted ,I turned to you era of Christina Aguilera. I’m streaming it still?
The best rendition of Ave Maria I’ve heard from a pop star. She sounds so angelic and has the incredible and one of a kind ability to tell a story through song. Bravo!
Yes I agree with that
Very well done Xtina!
Nothing extra just extraordinary vocals and teqnick
I’m living for Xtina. She looks good for her age, very youthful. She is genuinely happy in her life. She might not be on her prim e or peak bit hey you k ow she already rich and has iconic mega hits on her catalogue..
Queen????????
Simply amazingly beautiful our Queen Christina Aguilera ❤❤❤?????????

First of all praises to the good Lord. Rest in Peace Kobe Bean Bryant and those who lost their lives. Christina did an excellent performance and justice to Ava Maria.Thank You Lakers Nation I am beyond amazing by how organized Kobe’s memorial was. God Bless and don’t forget Team USA 2020
