Christina Aguilera

  • After taking a much needed hiatus, Christina Aguilera spent time working on her next album entitled "Stripped". The album itself took over 18 months to produce however Christina was very happy with the final result. She had this to say about what this album meant to her, "This music is who I am," she confidently asserts. "You can take it or leave it, but I’m not going to change, not for anyone." In the end, she says, it’s a tribute to the millions of worldwide fans who have made her a household name. "Fans grow up, too," she smiles. "We’re all reaching out for something more real and if we really want it, we’re going to find it. This album is for anyone who really wants it." Soon after, "Stripped" went to sell four million copies alone in the US and was certified double platinum (Quadruple platinum in Australia).
  • Christina Aguilera's next album is near completion and is said to be a retro jazz/soul/blues album.
  • Her singles include "The Voice Within", "Dirrty" and "Beautiful".

As much as I hate to I'm going to have to vote for Christina Aguilera.

Sat Feb 18, 2006 12:42 pm

I'm not a huge fan of either, but I voted for Coldplay - I really like Christina Aguilera's song 'Beautiful' though.

Sat Feb 18, 2006 1:28 pm

*chokes*

Coldplay all the way; Christina Aguilera is bleurgh and then some.

Sat Feb 18, 2006 4:45 pm

Ew, are either of them even worth a vote?

Sat Feb 18, 2006 5:51 pm

Coldplay, Coldplay, Co--ow!
Oh sorry, dog wanted attention.

Sat Feb 18, 2006 6:48 pm

Darn, I actually like them both.

At the moment, my favorite is Coldplay though. Mainly because Christina Aguilera hasn't released anything in a while and I love X&Y.

Sat Feb 18, 2006 9:51 pm

One word: Coldplay.

Or two if you're picky and are into taking apart fused words and calling them that.

Sun Feb 19, 2006 2:38 am

I used to LOVE Christina Aguilera when I was little. <3

Sun Feb 19, 2006 10:39 am

I'm a big fan of Coldplay, to be honest. It just appeals to me somehow. I've never heard Christina; but she has to be really something to convince me :P

Sat Feb 25, 2006 8:52 pm

Aguilera has no chance against Coldplay.

Sun Feb 26, 2006 6:41 pm

Coldplay all the way. They are a great band. Very original. That, and I have absolutely no respect for Christina Aguilera.

Mon Feb 27, 2006 11:22 pm

Christina Aguilera I hate Cold Play!!!

Mon Feb 27, 2006 11:34 pm

I used to really like Christina a very, very long time ago but I voted for Coldplay over her just because my current feelings lean more toward them than her, though I am indifferent to both.

Tue Feb 28, 2006 2:36 am

Coldplay-- I think Christina is okay, but Coldplay is a little more my type of music.
