And bitch please. Xtina was actually one of my fav performances along with Pink & Rhianna w T.I. And so what if she lipsynced - we all know girl can sing; it was obviously done for the sake of the show, since she was dancing around everywhere.
I love that shes not afraid to reinvent herself w different looks & sounds & Im looking fwd to hearing some of her new stuff

47. She definitely was lip synching as already mentioned. I'll let it slide since she can sing & hey Britney, Madonna, Mariah Carey all Lip synch so why not jump on the train, right? Anyway I thought the stage performance was just ok.
BTW I could barely hear Rihanna with her loud backing track.

49. I KNEW IT! I said why does Christina look like shes coping Britney..The clothes the dance and she did a old ass song..The opening act sucked! I though Rhianna would have done something better...

50. Christina had a baby 7 months ago..it does not take that long to lose the weight...a month maybe two is all it takes...

51. Ok, so I am not trying to be mean at all...and I am a mom too and I understand how your body changes after you have a baby, but her outfit was hideous! It made her hips and thighs look gigantic and she looked disporpotioned. Even on the red carpet, you could see she was bigger on the bottom. I'm not saying she should be stick skinny, especially after having a little baby...but she shouldn't have been in a leotard that her hips are bulging out of. It wasn't flattering for her at all!
But Britney looked great, didn't she? It looks like she's getting back to her fighting weight:)

52. So what your saying is Xtina can't sing and dance at the same time? Does she lipsync on tour - I don't think so. Lil' Wayne was dancing all over, Kid Rock jumped around, even Rhianna and TI sang for real - my point was that on every other award show, Xtina blows everyone else away when she sings - last night, not so much. No other act lipsync'd their songs, and if you really watched, she wasn't "full on" dancing as much as the entourage with her on stage - it's called performing live at a live show - in my opinion she blew her chance to really come back and shine - maybe having the baby has caused some damage to her voice and she'll now be doing everything "electronically" - unfortunate.

53. Oh and she did lip-sync. It's very normal for artists to do so. Honestly, it really doesn't matter if she did or not, she still did the original track. It's all about putting on the best show you possibly can and sometimes lip-syncing helps. These people are entertainers: Hello!?

54. Who cares how she looked, I am sooo dissapointed that she lipsynched.....I never thought she would. Which Britney is oh so famous for.

59. I love Christina. I thought she looked GOOD & as usual sang her heart out. There should not be a comparision.
You are right #15 Janet & Beyonce can wear it but Christina can't??? Come on TMZ....Christina's performance was one of the best as was Kanye. Deb

60. Hey Deb - How exactly did she sing her heart out - are you really that dense that you thought she was actually singing? Yes, she did the track - but she was CLEARLY LIPSYNCING - something I never thought I'd see from Christina Aquilera - I was very unimpressed with the whole thing. If I was looking forward to anyone singing for real last night it was her, and she ended up being the ONLY ONE that didn't perform live - truly a sad spectacle - she's lost me for now...
