How is this even remotely true? Remember X-tina's last two lead singles for Bionic and Lotus eras? Now, I could see you arguing that X-tina isn't showing as much skin as she used to, but we could just as easily blame that on NMT/Bionic flopping and that "other reason." As for Madonna . . . Madonna's not 25. She's been where Rih is and done all of that and more with her use of sex, and she did most of it in her 30's.

Look, Charlotte Church hasn't been a child in some time. So, what is she talking about? She's like 27 or something, and it's not like she's had any hits since hitting puberty. "Crazy Chick" smashed in the UK and her "Tissues and Issues" LP went (UK) platinum back in 05'.
Basically, her career is facing the inevitable trajectory of every popular artist that isn't in their prime, and Church peaked young. Charlotte's sales and relevancy have dwindled with each LP. Her last album from 2010 flopped hard. So now it's time to call Rih's name (there's so much power in it) for some press. (I see you, mah) These days, you have to work hard to maintain your relevancy or get extremely lucky. Also, if you're striving for pop-stardom, it helps to have multiple reasons for the public to sustain interest in you, which Church really doesn't have.
