Yeah, But Whitney was a flop also at the same time and it didn't help that she was on crack.

Britney fared much better in her darkest hour and produced an album that was unlike anything @ the time. Xtina failed to find her own sound on this album thus resulting in an epic flop.

Ehhh, I still think Blackout was more or less like the cousin of FS/LS, just less polished and melodic. I think with Mariah though, people were like "What makes Mariah, Mariah?". And people wanted her to go back to singing R&B and having her voice highlighted more. I think people want the same with Christina. She never got the chance to really establish her R&B creditability. Even though B2B is more or less an R&B album (moreso than a Jazz one ), it was seen as Christina trying to do jazz. Then she totally shifted to the left field doing dance on Bionic.

I can see the similarities with FS/LS and Blackout but I also think it's an incredibly lazy comparison to make considering that they both largely played with dark beats, and power synths. You could call The Fame a cousin to both Blackout and FS/LS than too if you want that comparison to hold.
Christina's problem with this last album was that she didn't have any hit singles, with no hit singles and with ballads doing horribly on radio as it is, is it any wonder why Bionic failed?

Bionic was a failed attempt to create "The Fame" and "Blackout" hybrid.

Christina simply didn't sound like herself in any of the material. There were traces of Britney (Desnudate), Fergie (Prima Donna), Madonna (Glam/Vanity), Gwen Stefani (I Hate Boys), Gaga (Not Myself Tonight), Beyonce (Woohoo), and a floray of other musical personalities but she never quite sounded like Christina with any of her material. Elastic Love was probably the closest to natural that she ever sounded in the given uptempos. The ballads fared a bit better but still not much dice there because nothing was quite "rhythmic" enough to catch on. The closest thing they had was Lift Me Up, which wasn't really going to work either. The project was doomed from the start to fail miserably.

Christina Aguilera just filed for divorce from her husband Jordan Bratman ... TMZ has learned.
Aguilera cited "irreconcilable differences" in her divorce petition, which was filed today.
The petition says there is a prenup.
Aguilera, who is represented by disso-queen Laura Wasser, lists the date of separation as September 11, 2010.
The petition also seeks to terminate Bratman's ability to get child support.
Aguilera is seeking joint physical and legal custody of their child, Max, who is 2.

Disco Queen Laura Wasser? Sad that the divorce is going through, I was hoping she could pull a Pink. It really makes you wonder about a song like You Lost Me...which seemed overly negative and dark for a woman who was supposedly very happy in her marriage. Maybe Christina knew what she was doing though. And needed the single as a cathartic release regardless of how well it did.

A woman reportedly claims Christina Aguilera had an open marriage and the singer frequently approached other women at gay bars in Los Angeles. Photo Credit: PR Photos October 15, 2010, (Sawf News) - A woman reportedly claims Christina Aguilera had an open marriage and the singer frequently approached other women at gay bars in Los Angeles. The woman, who chooses to remain anonymous, tells Radar Online that she was approached by Christina's bodyguard at The Abbey one night. The bodyguard walked up to her and said, "My boss would really like you." He pointed to Christina who was with her husband Jordan Bratman; Christina waved back to the woman. The woman claims she was confused. "The bodyguard told me it was an understanding within their marriage and that she brings girls home and Jordan's okay with it," the woman told Radar Online. "I met Christina in the bathroom and she told me she liked to play with girls," she added. The woman says she didn't pursue the affair. She also claims a couple of her girlfriends were similarly approached.

I hope Burlesque opens the doors to success again. I think her management is treating this like another album and clean slate. Hopefully, the movie does well.

She performed You Lost Me yesterday but changed one pivotal and possibly telling line "I couldn't keep my hands to myself"

Not sure if I should be shocked, but it's sad that's the only kind of gig she can get at this point. There's even people talking in the background I feel like there's NO hype for Burlesque, whatsoever.
