Lotus is a flop. Why isn't Christina Aguilera selling more albums?
The release of her new album Lotus was supposed to be a glorious victory lap for Christina Aguilera. After the dual duds of 2010′s critical and commercial failures Bionic and Burlesque, the once-platinum-plated pop star set out to reinvent herself: She divorced her husband of five years, became a coach on the hit series The Voice, and recommitted herself to her music.
Only part of that plan seems to be working for her. While her visibility factor is way up thanks to the big ratings for The Voice, it’s still bad news at the cash register. Final numbers won’t be in until next week, but right now, album sales tracking service Hits Daily Double is currently projecting Lotus will sell somewhere between 75 and 80 thousand copies in its opening week.

I forsee her having an "Emancipation of Mimi"-esque comeback in the next 3-5 years, but at least for the moment, her music career is done.
I mean, it's one thing to not be able to duplicate any of your past huge success.
But then for everyone and their mother to also write articles like, dissecting every last reason why she sucks at life.... That's gotta hurt.
I do think she comes across sort of bitchy sometimes but I also think she clearly has a really amazing side to her but people just continue to shit on her.
It's not just bragging right it's how long an era is going to last and how big it's going to be.
her voice is also her biggest weakness, shes overdoing it. it doesnt really work with those pop songs
