| Just Not A Fan - Sep 30, 2003 | Evanescence's Amy Lee has plenty to say about the other women in music industry.
She told Stepping Out magazine that she’s no fan of two of the biggest female names in music. "Britney Spears doesn't rock. She's a mechanical pop robot. Basically she's a puppet," said Lee.
And don’t even get her started on Christina Aguilera. "Britney isn't as bad as Christina when it comes to showing skin, Christina shows a lot more. They both seem to be competing with each other," Lee said.... |

| Xtreem X-tina - Sep 27, 2003 |  Ok, as for different looks she doesn't come close to Madonna, but Christina Aguilera did experiment a lot with make-up, scissors and haircolor through the years.
1990 - Christina, aproximately 9 years old (when she was still cute and sweet...).
1998 - The 'Genie in a Bottle' is still a little slumpy.
1999 - Say cheese... X-tina has found out that all you need to do is smile a lot.
2000 - Christina has exchanged the long trousers and t-shirts for short tops and matching kinky hair.
2001 - It's obvious that X-tina's hairdresser smokes crack. Or are these twisted cornrows rolled in so ugly o... |

Christina Aguilera
Looking at the many metamorphoses she went through in the last couple of years, you could compare Christina Aguilera to a chameleon. But with this outfit she's closer to applying for a job in Artis (a Zoo in Holland) as a Flamingo. If she had this outfit in blue, she could always try out as Pino from Sesame Street.

| 'Justified and Stripped' rings hollow - Sep 03, 2003 | So which one was justified and which was stripped?
You couldn't be blamed for asking that if you attended Tuesday night's closing concert of the Justin Timberlake/Christina Aguilera "Justified and Stripped" tour at St. Paul's Xcel Energy Center. Though Aguilera brought most of the elaborate set pieces and pyrotechnics, she also came across as the more accomplished vocalist, and she'd be justified in transforming her image next into a soul stylist.
Meanwhile, Timberlake was the one with the stripped-down, simply staged show. He impressed more with his dancing skills than his voice.

| The Musical Divide:Black -vs- White - Sep 30, 2003 | The state of music has changed. More and more, artists are crossing genres and capturing the loyalty of those not necessarily in their original target audience. While some welcome this change as is, others find inequality when it comes to white artists who have an easier time crossing over into the black audience than black artists tend to have crossing over into white audiences.
When tuning into any radio or television station, it is apparent that a number of white artists are very successful performing "black" music. Artists like Justin Timberlake and Christina Aguilera are embrace... |

With millions of downloaders out there, any one person is more likely to garner a huge recording contract than a court summons.
"I'm not especially deterred by that," said Hank Hatcher, 26, a music downloader from San Luis Obispo.
Earlier this month, the Recording Industry Association of America, representing various music labels, announced it was suing 261 people nationwide... |

| Britney's Kiss Catfight - Sep 07, 2003 |  Raunchy singer Christina Aguilera has angrily confronted pop princess Britney Spears over their controversial kisses with Madonna.
The steamy scenes stunned guests at the recent MTV Video Music Awards - but Aguilera now claims Britney is trying to muscle in on her image.
The pair are reported to have had a bust-up in a Hollywood nightclub last weekend following the New York bash.
The Daily Star said Christina was angry that she had helped Britney "sex-up" her image.
She accused her former Mousketeer colleague of mimicking her saucy style in an attempt to boost record sales.

The tour's stop at MCI Center, originally scheduled for Tuesday, has been postponed to Monday, Aug. 25.

I am no longer in the presence of Christina Aguilera, who is soft, gentle, sweet, a little on the intense, nervy side, prone to giggle, an all-American mall girl who thanks God a lot, who says “Whatever” even more. I have had my 40 minutes with someone who gives away her time very rarely indeed. You could feel the weight of the time tick away, time she would rather be doing something else. Something other than the diluted version of therapy that the celebrity interview is.
Her politeness, as I asked the obvious, the difficult and the silly, was a demo... |

It stands out as this summer's lone true pop-music tour.

| Justin Enjoys busy Night With Christina, Post-concert Show - Aug 07, 2003 | Reprinted from late editions of yesterday's Globe.
There are several escape routes from the perilous shores of teen-pop. Justin Timberlake -- one fifth of wholesome, harmonizing 'N Sync -- has chosen the path of credibility, hitching his wagon to cutting-edge producers and songwriters for his hopefully titled solo debut ''Justified.'' Christina Aguilera -- whose 1999 debut was built on innocent pop hooks and a girl's prerogative to take her time -- has chosen the path of sex, trading power ballads for booty anthems on her brashly titled album ''Stripped.''
The pair of 22-year-olds has teame... |

| Justin, Christina make leap from teen idols to entertainers - Jul 28, 2003 | Justin Timberlake and Christina Aguilera have come a long way since their teen idol days. They've become full-fledged entertainers. Think it's a stretch? If you had been at U.S. Bank Arena Saturday night, you'd think twice.
Watching Aguilera through the eyes of an 8-year-old in blonde pigtails really puts this artist - and she is an artist - in perspective.
Yes, she sells sex dirtier than Britney Spears once did, but the awe in the eyes of a little girl in the front row says what this artist is really all about. Beyond the skimpy outfits, the stripper dancing routines and the piercings, th... |

In high school, Aguilera would be the misunderstood Goth-trollop and Timberlake, a male cheerleader.
But in the world of entertainment, the only rule is "whatever makes money, works."

The 16 new tracks that comprise "Stripped," including her sensational debut single "Dirrty," showcases an unadorned, unfettered and fearlessly outspoken artist who has liberated herself, her soul and her music on an album that is as much a declaration of independence as it is a convincing demonstration of her fierce and original talent. Simply put, this is the real dea... |

| POP REVIEW; A Maturity In Being 22, As the Fans Come Along - Jun 05, 2003 | They said teen pop wouldn't last. But not only did it last; it also evolved. On Wednesday night, Justin Timberlake (of 'N Sync), the golden boy of teen pop, and Christina Aguilera, its black sheep, began their 45-date Justified and Stripped Tour at the America West Arena here.
But before going any further, here are some quick answers to the pressing questions fans and pop-obsessives have been asking about the tour:
Yes, Mr. Timberlake played 'N Sync songs; no, the two didn't sing together; yes, Ms. Aguilera has filled out a little around the middle; no, the audience was not full of squeal... |

| Christina Aguilera: 'Fighter' - Jun 05, 2003 |  She's a smart girl is our Xtina. 'Dirrty' was an inspired role reversal (and a great pop song) but just as her fans were lamenting the loss of their prom queen to some seedy underground boxing cartel, she bounced back with 'Beautiful' (another great pop song) proving she still had a heart. Albeit somewhat battered and bruised.
And now she's releasing 'Fighter' - what is it with her and violence? - in which little Christina punches above her weight yet again with a feisty display of bareknuckle musical fisticuffs. Dave Narravo's on hand for some epic geeetar to match the ball-crushing crescend... |

All signs indicate she'll be dark brunette and he'll be closely cropped when the singers kick off their summer-long Justified and Stripped tour tonight in Phoenix.
No one doubts the marketing genius behind combining the tours. These two young pop stars have spent half their lives in the public eye, sharing all the growth spurts and tantrums associated with growing up.

Both Justin and Christina were more than ready for their close-ups and as Rolling Stone music editor Joe Levy sees it, they're also ready to shatter that "teeny bopper" title.

Christina recently ditched her old fair locks in favour of the dramatic dark shade which she scraped back off her face.

She can sing circles around any of the other female pop singers, and that includes her one-time archrival Britney Spears. She was "there" first -- before Britney -- but her timing was off. Her 1999 self-titled debut didn't come out until seven months after Britney's debut, and it's as if Ms. Aguilera has been trying to play catch-up ever since.

"It's shocking for people, I think, coming off an image which, at the height of the teen pop phenomenon, was so cookie cutter and clean-cut. It was an image that reall... |

| Christina Aguilera - Oct 24, 2002 |  It's Christina Aguilera "stripped" down to the bare bones. But underneath her shocking new video lie the confessions of a pop star. She says, "This is the real me that people are seeing."
She talked to "Extra" about everything from domestic violence in her family to a war with Eminem, and of course her raunchy and controversial "Dirrty" video. She says, "I felt caged in or locked up. Everyone categorized me into that whole teen, kitschy, cookie cutter, play it safe … which was creatively stifling to me."
The 21-year-old says the people crit... |

| Christina Defends Dirrty Video - Oct 23, 2002 |  Pop bad girl Christina Aguilera has defended her naughty new video, saying she's old enough to do as she pleases.
She accepts that not wearing much and dancing in suggestive poses is a bit devilish, but then again, that's what she was aiming for.
"I find my new video clip very sexy," she told a German mag.
"It may have a couple of indecent scenes, but it is exactly how I wanted it to be. I'm not interested in moralists. I am happy, and the video is certainly not pornographic.
"I feel good in sexy outfits. I'm only 21 and in no circumstance want to dress like a squar... |

| Christina Aguilera in Trouble With Thailand - Oct 18, 2002 |  Christina Aguilera’s raunchy video for her hit single Dirrty has been banned from local TV in Thailand, but the controversy isn’t over the near-naked costuming – the pop diva alternates between bum-baring chaps and a microscopic miniskirt – nor the sweaty bump-and-grind dance moves. The criticism stems from a set of posters included in the Mad Max-like set in the background of the clip.
The southeast Asian country’s government has aimed their complaints at messages that read “Thailand’s sex tourism” and “Young underage girls” in Thai on the walls behind a boxing ring in the video – and have s... |

| Rock Star Sexy - Sep 03, 2003 | | If anyone knows how to rock a dirrrrty vixen look, it's Christina Aguilera. After she plucked off her pink, feathered dress and peeled off her "white" wedding gown at the 2003 VMA's, Christina threw on some casually rockin' after-party attire. Along with her newly vamp, black hair, Christina heavily applied dark shadows and tones to her eyes, and went for subtle-sexy with pink frosted lips. Her bustier top worn underneath a black leather jacket is a look that shows she's ready for anything. (And we know she is!) To top it off, she added a chunky necklace and some button pins, which g... |
