Your Rating: 7.8 / 10 in 805 votes
Sounds Like: Christina's much-awaited sophomore effort (Mi Reflejo and My Kind Of Christmas don't count as "proper" albums in my opinion) is filled with her signature wailing and (what seems to be) newfound girl-power. Apart from the choice cuts, the rest sound like any other song lamenting the loss of love, cherishing the search (and find) of love and dissing the ex-... |

| Christina explains the double R - 2002 | | Dirty is usually spelled with one R but Christina spelles it with two of them. When TRL asked her why she had this to say: "Having two R's like grrr. Like when you say you want to go dirrty 'cause that's how it is supposed to be kinda gritty and like the video, a little underground illegal stuff goin' on. So, uhm it's -- just my way of makin' it kind of personal and say it a bit differently if you want to go there." Carson Daly the host of TRL continued on talking about the album: ""I heard her new album it is excellent," he said. "You could take 'Dirrty' off the ... |

| Sanity Stripped Review - 2002 |  Christina Aguilera is back. Never one to shy from controversy, she has delivered a seductive follow up to her multi-platinum selling album Christina Aguilera. With a musical history much longer than her years denote Christina has an incredible history at the ripe old age of 23 years.
Over ten million albums were sold of her last record and Christina was a double Grammy winner with Best New Artist and for her rendition of Lady Marmalade featuring Pink and Lil’ Kim.
Stripped sees Christina reveal more of herself to fans, co-writing and co-producing all 16 songs on the album. Co-producers inc... |

| Christina guests on Pussycat Dolls Live At The Roxy - 2002 | | The Roxy Theatre in LA saw Christina Aguilera make a guest appearance with the cabaret-inspired dance troupe, the Pussycat Dolls. Christina said "It's kind of reminiscent of what I did for Lady Marmalade but this is a little edgier." The dance troupe was formed by choreographer Robin Antin in 1995. The show depicts a journey through time for the dance troupe from the early days of glamorous and sophisticated cabaret to today’s sexy, sleek and stylized dancing combined with rock-and-roll. Other celebrities such as Carmen Electra have also made guest appearances in the past.... |

| Christina cooly hands award to Eminem - 2002 | | Christina was clearly less than thrilled to be handing over one of Eminem's four awards. The rap artist's "Without Me" was deemed to be video of the year, best male video, best rap video and best direction. As well as recently criticising Christina's music, the Eminem decided to also have another a swipe at the brilliant Moby.... |

| Christina gets 'real' on 'Stripped' - 2002 | "The whole vision for this record was to be really raw and real," Christina Aguilera says, speaking by telephone from Los Angeles. "Just really baring who I really am." Bob Jamieson, chairman of the RCA Music Group, is very pleased. "She has tremendous instinct about who she is," he said. "Artists like Christina are going to be right more than they're going to be wrong."
During much of the time Aguilera was traveling the world, she started thinking about a new album. She knew she wanted to move away from her old sound and her "super-clean, cookie-c... |

| Tied Up - 2002 | | Who wants to be saddled with a bothersome blouse? At the MTV Movie Awards, pop diva Christina Aguilera, who sings on the Moulin Rouge soundtrack, goes for a bustier that might have been lifted from the film's costume department. She downplays the sexy top with laced-up blue-gray jeans. Hey, at least she finally tames her wild mane into cute tight curls.... |

| Demon in a Bottle - 2002 |  Looks like Christina Aguilera made a deal with Satan--and lost--at the MTV Video Music Awards in New York. Her devilish new designer apparently gives her clothes with a mind of their own, and now they're shriveling to try and suffocate her. That scarf hitched around her breasts, the itty-bitty denim skirt with a silver chain belt and the lace-up boots prove once again that you don't mess with the Dark Prince or you'll get "Dirrty."... |

| Fatal Attractions - 2002 | You might not know Ryan Gosling's name--yet. But his childhood buddies' should ring a bell. Ever heard of Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Justin Timberlake or Keri Russell?
Slay anything: Getting all fired up with Michael Pitt in Murder.
Yep, Gosling--who's now starring in Murder by Numbers--is the next Mickey Mouse Club alum to shimmy back into the limelight. But this time around, you're more likely to see him in a straitjacket than goofy mouse ears. Unlike his fellow Mouseketeers, who took the bright, shiny high road to mainstream pop-culture success, the 21-year-old Canadian has be... |

| Christine Aguilera - Stripped - 2002 | | This naughty rendition can be considered to be Aguilera's long-awaited sophomore effort, which is decidedly full of substance and maturity. More so than the single Dirrty indicates. Stripped, effectively proves that Christina has what it takes to establish an enduring singing/dance career. Aguilera collaborates with a host of recognized talent, including Alicia Keys and Glen Ballard and none nurture her unique style better than producers Scott Storch and Linda Perry-who encourage the singer's inner soul-mama and hippy-chick images. Both musical personas typically suit Aguilera's increasingly u... |

| Timid rates 5/5 - 2002 | | Christina Aguilera is back with a new look for the release of her sophomore effort entitled "Stripped". I missed the ride the first time around when she hit the world with the magic of a 'Genie In A Bottle', due to fear. I heard her voice and immediately thought that this girl had the pipes to be a hall-of-famer. Then I heard the teeny boppy first single and was scared to listen to the album. Not that I didn't like the track - just that I knew she was far more talented than that and I didn't want to be disappointed. It seemed to me that the label was going to plug her into the popula... |

| Aguilera, Christina : Stripped - 2002 | It looks like a Mariah Carey album, it sounds like a Mariah Carey album. Bloody hell, it is a Mariah Carey album. More specifically Christina Aguilera's premature mature album sounds like the hip-hop infused 'Rainbow' which famously bought Mariah clubland credibility at the expense of her sanity.
Ambulance chasers will have a field day picking through 'Stripped' as the lyrical focus shifts from shockingly inept girls-together tat to ickle girl vulnerability with dizzying irregularity, but - thrift-store Britney that she may be - the girl can sing.
The manic 'Make Over' and Redman-fuelled s... |

| Christina Aguilera "Stripped" - 2002 | | From changing her name to Xtina to her clothing-optional lifestyle, Christina Aguilera is really good at making bad decisions. And Stripped has plenty more of 'em. There's half-hearted Latin jazz ("Infatuation"), electronica ("Makeover") and "Impossible," which not only features Alicia Keys but a full gospel choir. To her credit, by the zillionth time one hears the Neptunes-driven "Dirrty," it's kinda catchy, her dip into rock with "Fighter" is a scrappy one, and power ballad "Beautiful" shows that she has still got better pipes than ... |

| Profiles : Christina Aguilera - 2002 | In August 1999, Christina Aguilera's self-titled debut album entered the music charts at number one and stunned the music industry worldwide. But the sultry singer's voice is such that it was only a matter of time before it came to the attention of legions of teenyboppers.
Born December 18, 1980, Christina grew up with her violinist mum Shelly Kearns, sister Rachel, and her step-dad in an unglamorous steel town near Philadelphia. Her biological father, Fausto – an Ecuadorian native and sergeant in the US Army – broke with the family when Christina was just seven years old. Although father a... |

| True or false that Britney called Christina fat? - 2002 | The rivalry between Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera seeems to have died down - particularly after the two singers shared an on-screen kiss with their idol, Madonna, during this year`s MTV Video Music Award. But did the pop princess diss the dirrty dive about her recent weight gain?
No, In fact, Britney defended her fellow Mouseketeer. "What's wrong with it?" the pop princess asked. "Thats sad. She has a good look. The press always has to say something. The funny thing is that they criticize me for my perfect hair. They say: 'Ah, she wants to be perfect. Is it the right m... |

| Crooner's Nest - 2002 |  Christina Aguilera buys Beverly Hills home -- The pop singer paid about $2.75 million for a 3 BR, 4 BTH roost in tony 90210
This genie has a new bottle. Christina Aguilera has purchased a new home, but the question is, Will she actually move in? In 2001 the singer shelled out about $2.75 million for a house in the gated community that claims Tom Arnold and Brian Wilson as residents, but never crossed the threshold. She sold the property this year, and set her sights on this 4,500-square-foot home, which she leased before buying. Built in 1953, the new digs include a library, a gourmet kitchen... |

| Stripped - 2002 |  Christina Aguilera's video for her new single, ''Dirrty,'' which presents her as the world's skeeziest reptile woman, was her first declaration of independence from the teen-pop ties that supposedly bound her. That theme runs throughout Stripped, her first album of all-new, English-speaking pop since her 1999 debut. ''Sorry I break the mold/Sorry that I speak my mind,'' she announces, with startling sourness, in a brief intro. Nearly every second of this overlong, 20-track workshop communicates the overwhelming struggles she endured -- while trying to become a superstar by age 18.
Hardly the ... |

| Christina Aguilera - 2002 | 3 out of 5 stars.
It seems former Mousekateer Christina Aguilera has finally popped right out of her bottle. On her second proper studio album Stripped, Aguilera purports to reveal "the real" Christina but if this is the real her then it's anything but "stripped." Lacquered in so much gloss and pretense, Stripped is more an event than an album. From its breathy interludes to the rock-R&B hybrid "Fighter," Stripped is so overproduced and overwrought that it could easily pass for a Janet album. Its 20 tracks are weighed down by inspirational power-vocal-pushin... |

| Christina Aguilera Stripped - 2002 | | Underneath all Christine Aguilera's coy affectations and vocal gymnastics lurks a rare talent. With her second album, Aguilera allows it to flower by abandoning all pretense at courting the teenage market. Stripped is a seemingly effortless move into weightier adult territory. Using her extraordinary voice as a much subtler instrument, Aguilera sings movingly and with grit and anger about the disintegration of a relationship; she's ultimately stronger for the pain. But that's not her whole agenda. Aguilera also extols the power of women on "Can't Hold Us Down," which features Lil' Ki... |

| Hispanic Heritage - Christina Aguilera - 2002 | | Before her twenty-first birthday, Christina Aguilera claimed multiple platinum records, three Grammy Awards, and record sales well over twenty million copies. A former child actor on the Disney series The New Mickey Mouse Club, Aguilera made her first recording as a fourteen-year-old on a duet with Japanese singer Keizo Nakanishi. While the song was successful in Japan, Aguilera returned to the life of a high school student in Pennsylvania before gaining a recording contract with RCA Records in 1998. Her first single, "Genie in a Bottle," sold over two million copies in 1999 and its ... |

| Is Christina sick of her diva image? - 2002 | | Say the name Christina Aguilera to someone, and odds are they’ll frown and say, “She’s such a diva!” In the past, she had that “Dirrty” image, but guess what? She’s changed, and she’s ready to move past her old image. “I read this story that was like Christina Aguilera threw a tantrum because her room wasn’t perfect,” Christina now says. “I don’t know why I got pinned with that image. I think maybe some people saw me, in the past, interacting with certain people not in a healthy good way.” Christina wasn’t being a diva, she was stressed. Too much, too soon was happening to her after her last ... |
