Here are a few pics of everyone’s favorite runner-up to Britney Spears, Xtina Aguilera singing her little heart out (and possibly busting a few blood vessels) on stage for a special celebratory performance for Trump Tower Dubai at a private residence in Bel Air, CA over the weekend. As usual, Xtina was rockin’ her too red lipstick (and a lovely Julien MacDonald dress, I might add) and was overdoing it a bit much up on that stage:

OK, don’t get me wrong … I honestly believe that Xtina is an insanely talented performer but I don’t know that I will ever get used to her overdramatic performance style. She, quite literally, looks like she is writhing in pain … or possibly giving birth … every time she performs. Her wild gesticulating always seems so forced and disingenuous … like she wants you to really believe she is giving the best performance you’ve ever seen and if she needs to look like she’s having a seizure to make you believe it, then so be it. I may be in the minority but I vastly prefer hearing Xtina perform over watching her perform.

Red lipstick is PRETTY!
I totally agree with Rach! “Oh Brit-Brit’s doing so good! She’s wearing decent clothes… she’s spending time with her kids…” Please! Xtina’s built a very strong career on her back, while listening to the whole world compare the two of them, when they’re not even on the same level. Xtina kept it real this whole time, and Trent keeps praising Britney after all that s*** she’s done… Go figure!
First of all, she needs to get that case of CRABS cleared up, stat. This is like the 4th picture in a row of her scratching her burning coochie, and it’s nasty!
Second of all, she is not THAT great of a singer, just ok…and she SUCKS live. ALWAYS trying to prove something, instead of just having fun & being herself.
Now that Leona Lewis is on the scene, Christina will fade into oblivion quickly…yes she has a better voice than Britney Spears (but Brit is a better performer) and Christina has never lived up to being “the next Mariah” or “the next Whitney” like people wanted her to do…
Leona is gonna kill it over the next 20 years!! Bleeding Love is THE song that Christina WISHES she could’ve sung!
Lol! Xtina fans are so defensive! This is some funny shit.
an nobody have an opinion in this world? So Trent prefers Britney… get over it!
And, to Carol…I don’t think that you should be comparing Britney/Christina’s parenting…THEY BOTH SUCK…but at least Britney DOES know how to pick her child up…did you see Christina trying to hold her son? It lasted like 2 seconds than Jordan had to take him, because the way that she was holding that kid he looked SO uncomfortable.
Plus, she goes out clubbing EVERY night…I haveseen her with her son only once, and that was to whore him out at Gwen Stefani’s baby shower..so Christina is no “mother of the year” herself.
She only had a baby because it is “the thing to do” these days to stay relevant and get on magazine covers.
@ lala
1. She doesn’t go clubbing every night, that’s a complete lie and you know it.
So she goes out every now and then. Can’t a mom have some fun too? She can afford a baby sitter you know. You really think “a good mom” stays at home with her child 24/7? Parents need a break too.
2. She has been photographed with Max multiple times. Get your facts straight.
3. Christina can hold her child just fine, just look at the Rock the Vote commercial.
3. Do you really think she would have a baby just because it is “in” at the moment? I you do then you’re really delusional.
In conclusion: just because you apparently dislike/hate Christina, does not give you the right to post false facts and lies. My recommendation to you: please, get a damn life.
Really stop comparing britney (trainwreck) to christina!!! lol… Ive seen christina live 3 times now and everytime it gets better and i love seeing her live she is really great… Too bad not everyone agrees but its cool.. Just wanted to let ppl know that she really is a great artist/performer !!! shes hot!!!!
I don’t care if she’s too dramatic on stage or not. She’s one of the most talented singers in the world, a true musican and artists unlike that Britney-mess who can’t even sing. Seriously, comparing Christina to Brit is retarted. Christina will becoma a legend like Aretha, Patti, Ella and co.
Sorry I had to LOL @ this trash.
I wasted a minute reading that garbage. By the way, Christina is an awesome performer whether doing it live or in studio. And I believe Perez called, he wants his nonsense back.
I don’t think people who keep it real don’t get too big boob jobs and wear clown face make up. I’m sure Christina is a nice person and she does have talent but she has some issues to work out when it comes to her looks. She comes off as defensive and insecure in her interviews too. I agree that Britney and her are not really comparable but I think they are stuck with the comparisons until the end of time. I just personally prefer Britney because she seems like a regular down to earth person despite all the drama. Plus she just seems to have a sweet personality and her songs are catchier and she is just more fun to watch as a performer!
There is no comparison. Christina is a genuinely talented singer, although a little hard to watch at times. Britney is trash, and even her fans can’t claim with a straight face that she has a good voice.
Her music is terrible. Worse than any of these other pop girls. She is so pretentious, yet she is the most boring pop star out there, her music is so boring. No wonder her sales are going downhill, I heard her last album bombed.
First of ALL christina’s last album did not bomb. And second of all people really need to realize that britney and christina are different in every way possible! Just let them be without having to resort to stupid comparisons. Damn! Btw just because u read a magazine or watch tv about these two stars doesn’t mean it’s always true. Imagine having a camera follow you 24/7 …. DIFFERENT STARS! LOVE IT OR EVEN HATE IT… BUT DON’T COMPARE. AND SHAME ON TRENT FOR THE COMPARISON.
Christina actually has talent and doesn’t have to rely on computerized tricks to make her sound better. Xtina is an amazing singer and has one of the best voices in the industry. You can hate but Christina aint going no where because she is the total package. She delivers and that is all that matters.
[...] Madonna Won’t Run Out of Tights (Hollywood Rag) Christina Aguilera Seizes The Stage (Pink Is The New Blog) [...]
Christina’s last CD bombed? What about Britney? It’s not like her last one was “Album of the Year” or anything. lol Christina sold way more than that trainwreck did. Christina might be boring, but I take boring anyday over that loony tune.
Massive fail.
^^^ In reference to my attempt to put together words to describe how RIDICULOUS it is to STILL say Xtina is second fiddle to Britney.
I just think singers start to get ‘LAZY’. It happens to all the greats – Whitney, Mariah … Instead of singing the lines properly and making an effort to hit notes, they start to go wooo / yeah or they leave the singing to the backups and just yell out a big note occasionally or at the end of the song … and yet their fans will still applaud and say how legendary they are …
Shes an amazing performer, i have seen her llive twice and always brings an amazing show, powerful voice, no so trashy limp sync, and not too much dance, she enjoy singing and performing, what is a SINGER to do?
