She's okay, I mean the way she looks is a little scary sometimes, and I would never buy her CDs, but she does have excellent vocal talent.

TOTALLY Agree w/ya Juniorgrrl! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif Britney in my opinion, is way better. C.A. just annoys the crap out of me...how she tries to copy Mariah Carey's singing style, the finger waving, the clothes, the makeup http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/eek.gif http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/eek.gif, and just how I don't think she gives a positive image to all those 10-year olds to 13-year olds who idolize her. Not that Britney is the best role model either...but at least Britney HAS A PERSONALITY!!!! Saw C.A. on Rosie--wearing something very flimsy and sounded like a ditz, IMO...harsh I know.

Sorry bout that..but whenever I see her on TV or something...I think "AHH!" She used to be cool when her first single came out...but then after that, I just feel that she has tried too hard to be the best, over Britney.

For all the Christina haters, you'll be happy (not!) to know that she has put her name on the Fetish makeup line and it's at your local Sears. I can take Christina and Britney the same way I can take boy bands - dance songs only, don't get all ballady-deep on me.

But my big question is: what the heck is with Mandy Moore and Jessica Simpson? They are the same person, aren't they? http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/confused.gif

It's easy to get Mandy and Jessica confused. Their success (if any) seems to be riding on other things besides music. Mandy--her stint as an MTV VJ...and Jessica--her no-sex relationship with 98 Degrees' Nick Lachey. Although I think Jessica can sing, something's just not going right for her.

I enjoyed Christina when she first did her Mulan thing. I remember all the tots from the New Mickey Mouse Club and I was amazed to see how fast they had matured since the cancellation of the show.

I think Britney's beautiful...and sometimes I think Britney uses her looks to get by. I really can't stand her songs anymore. Especially after she butchered Shania's "Don't Let Me Be The Last To Know."

Christina's beautiful too...but I don't know why she has to hide it with her hair and gallons of makeup.

Sometimes I really miss Paula Abdul, NKOTB, the Jets, and the rest of the old school. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/frown.gif

I like Britney better than Christina. C.A. freaks me out with all the makeup. Even at her most natural she has on a whole stick of black eye liner. She is really waifish, and the bleach colored hair is just not cute. Other than that, I think she's ok

I like Christina's ability to really sing and convey meaning through her pitch and voice. HOWEVER, I think that is ALL she has going for her. I think she is trying to hard to look like an adult when she's barely there.

Anyway - Here's my tip to you Christina...
A long time ago I was told that boys like it better when girls don't wear so much makeup. They said they can tell the teenie boppers from the college girls because us college girls...au natural our looks.
So if you want to start acting your age...lighten up on the makeup. Soon enough you'll look like KISS...and when I was little they scared the CRAP outta me.

LOL! I think it was Conan that said Christina is actually the long lost daughter of one of the guys from Twisted Sister! Scary thing was, it *did* look a bit like her current look... http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/eek.gif

LOL. I didn't think of that one...that makes sence too.

I think that Christina has an AMAZING voice, but unless she has really good training she will blow it out in a matter of years (according to my sis who is studying to be a singer) her sense of style? trashy as anything.

Personally, I prefer Britney, and Jessica Simpson does have a good voice

I guess I rarely take into consideration a performer's "look" b/c it's all for show and stage. I totally doubt Christina chills around the house in all that make-up and hair (or at least I HOPE she doesn't! lol http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/tongue.gif). Anyway, I think Christina is WAY better than Britney. Britney=lip sync. Can she just get up there and be a singer and stop trying to be a dancer? Now Christina, she's got a voice and will get up on any stage and belt it out! Sure she dresses sleazy and could tone down the makeup and puffy hair, but to me, she's got the best voice out there of any teen pop star, besides Aaliyah (my other fav female singer).

I am not a fan of either Britney or C.A. because they know that all these 10-12 year old girls look up to them and they are not great role-models. Anyway, i heard somewhere that C.A. got a nose job. I am sorry if this is old info but is it really true?

I was just listening to Mariah Carey's second album yesterday, and remembering all the "vocal gymnastics" she used to do. Some of it, honestly, is just screaming. I think once she established she could do that she settled down considerably - I can't remember the last time she did one of those "here's my 8 octave range" songs. I think Christina is kind of doing the same thing - just doing it to show she can (and Britney can't).

I heard Mariah Carey blew her voice out - not entirely, but she lost a lot of her range. The human voice isn't meant to make noises like that - and if someone can, they usually can't for long...your vocal cords just arent meant to do that. Watch and listen, the same will probably happen to Christina.

Being that Christina is from Pittsburgh, I used to feel loyalty to her, since I am from right up the road. She definitely can outsing Britney anyway, but she looks like Marilyn Manson in the Moulon Rouge video. Britney is much better looking, and not as nearly trashy. There is not a Brother's room in the house that does not have a Britney poster in it, so Britney wins, but CA can still sing.

Man, I used to have nightmares about KISS!!!
