Everyone Hates Christina
Just when Christina Aguilera was starting to catch a break on The Voice, and slowly starting to rehab her career and image comes news that none of the other judges likes her. Oh sure, Adam Levine is willing to release a song with her for the money but it does not mean that he likes her. Ditto with Blake Shelton. Cee Lo is way to worried about himself to be worried about Christina. That guy is in his whole little world and I don't think he notices anything but the mirror.
Anyway, the other judges are ticked off that Christina makes triple what the other judges make. They are also upset that she has an entourage that the producers pay for while the other judges don't. Oh, and Christina will not talk to the other judges unless forced too. To top it all off, Christina and her entourage wear Team Christina shirts. Not sure if that is show related or diva related.
Now you might think this is all crap because Adam Levine's rep says it is untrue. Fair enough. But, would you also then expect Christina's reps to say the same thing? Instead, they said no comment. Really? Just tell The NY Post it is untrue and move on. To say no comment means they believe it could be true and just don't want to lie.
I haven't been watching much of this show but I did catch Adam Levine telling Aguilera to shut up. It was pretty awesome.
ReplyDeleteShe doesn't really have a great reputation, does she?
Well, in her defense, hasn't she sold more albums than the three dudes? That's not to say she should act like a twatty diva on set, but the fact that she gets paid disproportionately more is maybe justified.
ReplyDeleteAnd technically speaking, she IS the best singer on the judging panel.
I really like that show but the interactions between xtina and the other judges is really awkward and uncomfortable. I totally believe this.
ReplyDeleteSee, I think Adam Levine is a much better singer than Aguilera. She's got a great voice, sure, but her utter inability (or unwillingness) to sing an unadorned note really annoys me.
ReplyDeleteI haven't watched this show at all, but maybe the reason X-Tina does not talk to the other judges is because she is embarrassed as all hell. I mean, she did make an ass out of herself on several occasions.... maybe not humble enough to say, "Listen, I effed up..." and have a laugh about it?
ReplyDeleteEh I don't really buy this. Plus, everything you mentioned seems more like the other male judges are embarrassed that the only female judge makes way more money and the producers have invested in her...so what?
ReplyDeleteFor once a woman is getting more money than her male colleagues. Cry me a river. She gets more money because she is the most famous of the 3.
ReplyDeleteAnd I guess who's the better singer is a matter of opinion because I think Adam Levine is not that great. Don't know Blake Shelton, never heard of him before this.
In all honesty, when it comes to Hollywood, nobody really likes one another. It's a business. You don't like many of your work colleagues, at least not enough to socialize with them outside of work (and especially once you get married, have kids and get a life). And in the case of Hollywood, where everyone is neurotic and wants the audience to love them and them alone, the idea of frenemies liking other frenemies is rather ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteAnd SunnyHorse: Levine sings plenty of adorned notes. "Songs About Jane" wouldn't have been much of an album without his warbling.
She definitely has the most name recognition and albums sold..
ReplyDeleteThat being said she is ( by what I have read ) not a nice a nice person at all and thinks that she is the victim of her own celebrity. She is up there with Asslee except she can sing. What a waste of a gift.
* not a nice person..I don't know why I wrote " a nice " twice..probably has to do with the fact I was rear ended this morning : /
ReplyDelete@sunnyhorse....i TOTALLLLLLLY agree with your unadorned note statement!
ReplyDeletei have been watching this show religiously since i myself am a vocalist AND it has my boyfriend Adam on it *teehee* and Christina is AWFUL! she constantly acts like a princess, and she is downright rude to the judges. she also keeps telling one of the contestants to take his pants off...yeesh
i don't buy it.
ReplyDeletesometimes pr peeps do the 'no comment' thing when they simply refuse to feed into something. it's common practice, actually.
i spent time in the blake camp on the final night of cma wk in nash, and he had nothing but good things to say about her. i tend to believe him b/c it wasn't a press/media room scenario where he wanted to look good before the press, it was said in normal conversation.
as for levine, he's a genuinely great guy...i can't see him speaking crap about anyone.
i havent been a fan of christina since stripped, but she can definitely outsing every one of them. Adam Levine might have a good voice, but I wouldn't know since he ALWAYS sings songs at a higher key than he can hit. and yeah, blfugirl, she actually made a joke about the flubbed national anthem on the voice. so, not sure where you're going with that.
ReplyDeleteThere was a Frenchie interview the other day saying she's a great coach. But I guess that doesn't hit the news.
ReplyDeleteChristina's a favourite punching bag for the media these days...we all know why. Glad to hear it's prob not true, Pookie.
ReplyDeleteAs for her making more than the others....and so?
The whole TEAM XTINA shirts seems very highschool if true. Shows someone needs to grow the heck up.
ReplyDeleteThe whole TEAM XTINA shirts seems very highschool if true. Shows someone needs to grow the heck up.
ReplyDeleteXtina is a known diva and does not talk to anyone if she doesn't have to according to some of the blinds out there. IMO, she should make more than the other judges because frankly, most people are probably watching because of her. That's the only reason I'd even consider watching this show. I speak for myself, of course, but I don't know or care who the other judges are, to be honest.
ReplyDeleteactually watch the show in spite of Christina, not because of Christina. i had no idea who Blake Shelton was since i don't dig country, but Maroon 5 have a number of Grammy's, and Ceelo is quite popular in his own right.
ReplyDeleteI think the teams on the show are called "Team..." whoever their mentor is. So the t-shirt thing isn't all that strange.
ReplyDeleteNo body would care if everyone got alone. Where's the story there?
ReplyDeleteOops. Got along, not alone.
ReplyDeleteI don't watch the show, but she is only one I knew when it came out. I kind of knew C-Lo and Adam Levine, but Xtina is the only who was a real household name. I can understand her getting more money than them. I also think she is the best singer. She is no JBlow.
ReplyDeleteI've watched every episode of the Voice and Christina (or Xtina - really?) drives me insane. Thank god her annoying personality is only 1/4 of the judges because otherwise, I'd have to quit watching. I honestly PVR it and fast forward through parts where she's talking.
ReplyDeleteThe funny thing is, before the show I was a big Christina fan - not now. She's an annoying spoiled princess and it shows. Also, I think her voice isn't as nearly as good as it used to be (can she even sing if she's not doing runs?). However, she is the most famous, so it makes sense that she gets paid the most.
I didn't like Adam before (because of his womanizing reputation) and now I have a whole new respect for him. I admire how he really does seem to be into coaching to the best of his ability. Cee-Lo is Cee-Lo - I thought he would be awesome and he really is (though I don't get his fascination with Tori & Taylor - I find them awful). The surprise for me was Blake. I had no idea who he was (I don't like country) but I love that he's a bit badass and the fact that you can tell he truly truly cares about his team. You can totally tell the 3 guys are annoyed with Christina.
First off, I've seen every episode and have said on more than once occasion that I like Christina's voice.
ReplyDeleteEach coach has a team, so having a "Team Whatever" t-shirt doesn't make Christina a bitch, but...
When the show began the contestants chose which judge to go with. At that time Christina seemed to be on her best behavior, but once the teams were set, the gloves came off. I think she's especially rude to Blake and maybe it's because he takes her crap a little more than Adam. What also bugged me was once the teams were set each judge performed with their team and while Blake stood back and let his team do most of the singing, Christina made her team's number all about her.
CeeLo and Adam have the strongest teams anyway, so Ms. Thang is really going to be pissed when someone from her team doesn't win.
Overall, I love the show though. I think it's much better than A.I.
Christina will not talk to the other judges unless forced to
ReplyDeleteShocking!

part of the show is the judges shit talking each other in freindly competition.
ReplyDeleteThe problem is Xtina suffers from Paula Abdul disease of saying weird things that make no sense except to Chrisina. So the other judges don't know hot to respond.
Also, Christina always wants to say something profund so she keeps talking hoping something smart will fall out...we are still waiting for that moment.
Unlike, Adam, Cee & Blake who are pretty clear and succinct in what they say. Ok maybe Cee is a little out there also, but not to Xtina level.
I am not a christina fan by ANY form, but i really like two songs by her. Hurt (which, I was at Plato's Closet the other day and heard and was like WTF I like Christina song!) and Save me from myself, which.. I can just relate to.
ReplyDeleteAnd I have watched the voice. I've since stopped watching because I don't really get into that type of show anyway. I just wanted to check it out because of Adam Christina AND Cee-Lo, he was hilarious on SNL, and his stage presence was pretty awesome.
I've been watching it and I must be blind because I don't remember her being a diva/bitchy at all?? Can someone give me specific examples of bad behavior ON the show??
ReplyDeleteI am a little surprised about the not equal pay (b/c i figured they'd all be equal) but good for her.
The girl can sing.
