Pop icon Christina Aguilera celebrated her 40th birthday yesterday and has been toasted by family, fans and famous friends alike.
One of the latter is famed Fresh designer Jean Paul Gaultier.
Full story below…
Taking to social media, he offered one of the most ringing endorsements of the diva. For, he branded her “the voice of a generation”:
With soaring ballads such as ‘Beautiful’ and ‘Hurt’ as well bops like ‘Dirrty’ and ‘Your Body,’ Xtina has proven herself one of music’s most talented and versatile voices.
That said, do you agree with Jean Paul’s assessment?

He’s old and clearly cannot hear any longer. Did he want her Christmas performance that was panned by EVERYONE!? Chiiiiile. BYE. These old queens will do anything for attention.
Everybody knows she has some pipes but she’s showing off her over singing vocal every performance. U know some songs are not meant to be over singing. Why does she has to over singing all songs, no matter uptempo, slow jam, Hip hops, or holiday songs💅🏿💅🏿💅🏿💅🏿
Straintina over sings cuz her supported Range is VERY LIMITED. she did great earlier this year for Kobe tho (RARE) Probably cause oversinging is inappropriate for mourning ears and a song like Ave Maria
Mourning ears hadn’t stopped her leaky tan from growl-singing at Etta James’s funeral. 😊
Agreed. She’s underrated tho
😂😂😂😂😂
I feel like I’m being attacked when she sings.
With vOcal training, her voice could have been amazing. But it’s her bday so a compliment is a compliment.
Yes, we agree. Happy Birthday to the Legend!
Christinas vocals are SO BAD that even her biggest fans&stans don’t even bother to disagree when u call out that IMPROPER technique of hers trying to sing notes that don’t even exist. Atleast when bey does unnecessary over the top screams or grunts it’s always done with TASTE & perfect timing
Xtina will NEVER be voice of generation cause her discography as a whole is and always has been WEAK & forgettable. Hurt is xtinas BEST song to date and even that is no LISTEN or DANGEROUSLY IN LOVE or even LOVE ON TOP
Does Xtina have a distinctive, iconic voice?
Absolutely.
VOICE of a generation? No sir.
And murderess is “vocal Bible”?
STFU.
😂🙃😆😅
😂 😂 so damn messy omg .. I can’t breathe
I love Christina Aguilera! She’s one of the last female vocal divas of the 90’s/00’s. I always loved her “Christmas Song” rendition and the dance/house remix is lit. No matter what people’s opinions are, I still love and respect her talent. Let her have her roses now as life is too short.
Imagine Madonna had her voice. Or Rihanna. Or even Taylor Swift. The talent is there (despite obvious gravel past 4th octave); but her stubbornness, insistence on visual/aesthetically themed eras, and being an (let’s call it) artistic simpleton got in the way. Her vocals in the Ricky Martin duet will always be CLASSIC! Happy Birthday, Maria.
Her technique didn’t evolve like most of the great vocalists but she’s good at what she does
She has not been the voice of a generation for quite sometime. Ariana has stolen he’s shine, bud aside from that Jennifer Hudson, Fantasia Barrino, Kelly Clarkson, Leona Lewis, many other la could give her a run for her money. She is still wishing she had Mariah’s career and blessing but it will
Never happen. She fizzled out after her 1st 3 albums, she actually had a very short shelf life.. I see no lies..
I agree her commercial success has been quite short when you think of it.
Everything past Back to basics didn’t perform well.
Anyway obviously the girl can sing, she has a hell of a voice.
She is the best, hands down!!
Burlesque showed her versatility and awesome pipes. 🥰🥰
