This story will not die, and I am not going to be the one to kill it. Of course I am talking about Christina Aguilera's National Anthem flub at the Super Bowl. It was not her 1st time singing it of course, but it will probably be her most memorable. Now the mess up is not really why I am talking about her. She did have this to say about it, "I can only hope that everyone could feel my love for this country and that the true spirit of its anthem still came through." That is all good but apparently there are reports of her stumbling backstage before the performance. Some say that she was probably drunk. This would not be anything new either. Reports say that those close to her say she has been partying and drinking much more lately and that she has been drinking until she passes out. This might be due to her divorce and there are reports that her ex husband and her new guy are all living together in her 10,000 sq. ft. home. Last year her album, Bionic, flopped causing her to cancel her tour due to a lack of sales, and most recently her movie, Burlesques, with Cher was a box office flop as well. She made some remarks about Lady Gaga stealing her style and that did not go over well in the gay community, which support both ladies, supported Aguilera I should say. Unlike Britney Spears who went through something much worse than this Christina Aguilera built her career around her voice and the power of it, but she evolved too quickly and we all grew tired of her voice within years. She wants to get back in the spotlight and she wants the attention she feels she deserves and that she feels less worthy artist are getting, thus why she is back in the clubs trying to show her fans that she is still alive and current. If these reports of her drinking and partying are true then I do hope she gets the proper help she needs. She is a mother now and that is now cool. It is bad enough she resembles Snooki, she does not have to act like her as well. I am giving Christina Aguilera a Digit Down.
