OK, universe say it with me now 'If my name is not Christina Maria Aguilera, I shall not sing a song by her." Keep saying it until the message sinks in.

"Every name I've been called has made me that much stronger to fight for what I think should be a freedom for all women: to be able to express themselves."- On female freedom

"I honestly am a lover of any art form that allows a woman to express herself in a sensual way. It definitely has come up in my own performances. I think the female body is beautiful, and I love the art of the tease that burlesque offers. It's very look-but-don't-touch-and it is its own art form, knowing how to tease. I was always drawn to that sort of idea: the costumes, the glamour of it all, getting to dress up and experimenting with different hairstyles and make up."
"If I come out and sell two damn records to people who can really appreciate my music or what I have to say, that's cool with me."
"I like normal guys. Guys in the entertainment business tend be self-absorbed. They can also over love what I do or get intimated by it, which makes it difficult."
"That's why I make music, to open people's minds. The message I try to convey is to be a strong female and not be afraid to take the flack that comes with it."
"I never wanted to be put in a place where I felt helpless or that I needed a man to support me, in any way, shape or form, to put a roof over my head, to put money in my pocket."
