Xtina: Maroon 5 haven't had that kind of success before Moves Like Jagger


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.

I want to like her but she's far too full of herself.
janeeyre 13th-Nov-2012 12:18 am (UTC)
IDGAF, I love Bionic!

Has she heard of Songs about Jane? wth?
angelmonster 13th-Nov-2012 12:18 am (UTC)
I don't like her or Mroon five but this makes her look like the bitch everyone says she is. Why do you feel the need to stay stuff like this when you are famous? Learn to shut your trap.

this makes her look like the bitch everyone says she is.

exactly. there was no need for her to say that.

Hmmm
ferniinberlin 13th-Nov-2012 12:19 am (UTC)
this love was huge back in the day and although they haven't been outselling these past years they had a solid fanbase.

gurl, i love you, but you are delusional
warsawed 13th-Nov-2012 12:20 am (UTC)
she's not talking about quality tho
whitegirlmob 13th-Nov-2012 12:25 am (UTC)
She's not talking about anything that actually happened. Their first three singles went Gold and Platinum so..

They never really struggled to get hits.
myxwill 13th-Nov-2012 12:20 am (UTC)
um.
warsawed 13th-Nov-2012 12:20 am (UTC)
this interviewer seems like an asshole tbh

I continue to love her
saltireflower 13th-Nov-2012 12:20 am (UTC)
Bionic sucked though.
happy_endings11 13th-Nov-2012 01:47 am (UTC)
Right? And before Moves Like Jagger what was Christina's last hit. This woman needs her balloon sized ego popped.
illiade 13th-Nov-2012 12:20 am (UTC)
Idk, This Love and She Will Be Loved were everywhere back in the day. And I'm fairly sure she hasn't really been crazy successful either so it feels like a pot calling the kettle black kind of thing.
jinnycalderone 13th-Nov-2012 12:21 am (UTC)
they play her songs at work, and i feel like im slowly becoming a fan again.
ebmich 13th-Nov-2012 12:21 am (UTC)
Makes Me Wonder if she's her of Maroon 5. /bad pun


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..
cevansfan 13th-Nov-2012 01:19 am (UTC)
she also said in 2002 she was happy britney took a break
she said something like "Yes, take that break Britney."
I think it was for some mtv special
ciccones 13th-Nov-2012 12:21 am (UTC)
girl, you are your own worst enemy. yikes, the delusion...
and i really like lotus but i can't stand her.
whitegirlmob 13th-Nov-2012 12:21 am (UTC)
This bitch.

They didn't even need that hit. They did her a favor.
baboona 13th-Nov-2012 12:21 am (UTC)
she's right.



but continue hating, people.
warsawed 13th-Nov-2012 12:23 am (UTC)
people don't care bc they already decided they hated her like three years ago
vampireweekend 13th-Nov-2012 12:24 am (UTC)
ty
whitegirlmob 13th-Nov-2012 12:27 am (UTC)
But they still sold? I see a lot of gold and platinum beside several songs before Moves Like Jagger.
pettyscenes 13th-Nov-2012 01:22 am (UTC)
she wasn't saying they didn't have prior success.
myxwill 13th-Nov-2012 12:28 am (UTC)
No. I think the fact that Maroon 5 is more successful was because Adam is on the voice, probably one of the most watched shows on television right now.
wowsolovely 13th-Nov-2012 01:58 am (UTC)
Who cares you can't prove the song was bu because I get honestly I never even
Hear her part of the song until recently. She said something tacky even if true and west have to like her.
tiki876 13th-Nov-2012 03:15 am (UTC)
this is true, but obvs because of the digital sales era. they've always been a popular world act, but itunes helped them to be even more popular.
paarycia 13th-Nov-2012 01:55 pm (UTC)
