Christina Aguilera "You Lost Me" Performance reviews!
USA TODAY: Christina blew the contestants off the Idol stage!
Quote:
The four female finalists who left early -- Lacey Brown, Didi Benami, Katie Stevens and Paige Miles -- start Christina Aguilera's Beautiful, soon joined by Crystal and Siobhan. Siobhan and Paige take the main leads for the next song, Fighter, the fully-recovered Paige sounding tough enough to have lasted a couple more weeks. The women introduce Christina, and she sings just enough of Fighter to make everybody wonder, "That's it?!"
But the lights come back up and Christina's getting the ballad You Lost Me all to herself. The Idol women are nowhere to be found on the stage -- maybe Christina's just blown them off it, because she's exhibiting a combination of range and precision-based control that none of them possessed.

Toyaz World: Christina Aguilera just owned the American Idol Finale with ‘You Lost Me’."

Christina Aguilera sings for her life on ‘American Idol’ Finale. Watch!
Christina Aguilera just owned the American Idol Finale with ‘You Lost Me’. The ballad is lifted from her new album ‘Bionic’, to drop in stores on June 8th. Before she came out, the American Idol finalists performed a medley of two of her biggest hits – ‘Beautiful’ and ‘Fighter’. Watch the performance below.
Wow. This is how a true artist performs! After several misses regarding her new album (lead single tanking, postponed tour, etc), this performance was definetely her victory so far. The 29-year-old clearly showed why she is at the top of her game when it comes to vocal talent. That chick can sing the hell out of anything. Loved it

I was bored. She has a great vocal performance, but it just wasn't keeping me in. Otherwise, she did great.
I'm really glad she didn't do "Woo Hoo."

B. Scott Supports Christina! (Unlike Perez) + Other Bloggers
B. Scott has been on Team Christina for quite some time. Even while other bloggers *coughperezcough* try and shoot her down. We should show our support to the positive bloggers that help get the message out! Even when he doesn't particularly like something, he gives honest criticism and stays respectful towards our X-Tina! THIS is the type of press our girl deserves!
http://www.lovebscott.com/category/c...stina-aguilera
He's had a lot to say during this era, and he even plays NMT on his sirius Satellite radio show, despite it's popularity. Maybe we can get him to get an interview from her. He's already interviewed Mariah Carey and a bunch of other people on his show. Help get the word out! If you know of any other bloggers giving Christina the shine she deserves, post them here so we can support them!

MTV: Christina Aguilera Tears Up 'You Lost Me' On 'American Idol' Finale
Quote:
Christina Aguilera may have taken a few years off to raise her son, but the singer proved she's back in a big way on the "American Idol" finale Wednesday night (May 26).
The singer — who will perform at the 2010 MTV Movie Awards on June 6 — tore into a stirring, soulful version of "You Lost Me," a track from her forthcoming Bionic LP, that proved, if there were any doubt, that she's got one of the best voices in the business.
Aguilera took the stage after this season's female contestants — Lacey Brown, Didi Benami, Katie Stevens, Siobhan Magnus and Crystal Bowersox — performed a medley of her hits "Beautiful" and "Fighter," emerging from below the stage to help put the finishing flourishes on the latter, then, as the stage went dark, stepping out into a spotlight for her solo.
Accompanied by somber strings and a piano, hair pulled back in her Bionic curls, and wearing a demure black ensemble, Aguilera started softly, singing about smoking guns, lost magic and the tragedy of a dying relationship, then picked up steam from there as the music swirled beneath her. The middle section of the song was smoky and solemn, Aguilera stretching the notes, then, eyes closed and right arm outstretched, sang for the rafters.
Her voice got bigger and bigger as the song entered the home stretch, but she never let things get out of control, and brought the tune home with a simple, breathy "You lost me."
And as the "Idol" audience gave her a much-deserved standing ovation, it became clear that Aguilera still has got the goods to go up against anyone.
