On Bionic again:
"Bionic” wasn’t this commercially acceptable, packaged-up, proper thing. But it was an experimental, beautiful piece of work that will live on in time and make its mark later on in its life. It was very artistic."
After a turbulent two years taking in divorce, critical drubbings and dramas on stage and off, Christina Aguilera is back with a new album – and the same fiery attitude. She tells Craig McLean what’s made her such a tough cookie.
In a dimly lit bedroom in Beverly Hills, Christina Aguilera and I are discussing the current crop of television-talent-show feuds.
The octave-straddling superstar, who has sold 43 million records and won five Grammy Awards since her debut single, Genie in a Bottle, in 1999, is a judge and mentor on the American television programme The Voice (which was adapted for the British audience by the BBC earlier this year).
The Voice has since engaged in an intense ratings war with Simon Cowell’s American X Factor. Also at war, more importantly, are the celebrity judges on each of the shows.
On The X Factor, the rapper Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey are at such loggerheads that it’s become national news.

Has she heard of Songs about Jane? wth?
exactly. there was no need for her to say that.
gurl, i love you, but you are delusional
They never really struggled to get hits.
I continue to love her
I still thinks she is bitter that Britney is more loved and successful than she will ever be. Ever since I've seen one of those bio type shows and it mentioned that she was upset that Britney took off before her. I think it was that show Driven by MTV? idk I do know she lacks a lot of charm..
she said something like "Yes, take that break Britney."
I think it was for some mtv special
and i really like lotus but i can't stand her.
They didn't even need that hit. They did her a favor.
but continue hating, people.
Hear her part of the song until recently. She said something tacky even if true and west have to like her.
