MTV: 4 Reasons Why Xtina Is Not a B*tch!
Quote:
Even British boy band The Wanted feel unwanted sometimes. Who by?
Christina Aguilera. After a recent visit to "The Voice," the band's Tom Parker called
Christina "a total b*tch" for apparently refusing to look at and speak to them. They
apologized, but now are back at it! Perhaps she was just intimidated? Good looks
x (5 boys + 5 British accents) = speechless, in my book. Maybe not for Christina,
but chill out boys! Millions of women around the world still kiss your glossy posters
goodnight before bed.
Although what Christina did (if she did) was sort of…well…what The Wanted said…
let’s not forget about all of the kind things Christina has done over the course of
her career. Here are a just few of them:
+ She donated $200,000 to a Women’s Shelter.
In 2003, Christina donated $200,000 to the Women's Center & Shelter
of Greater Pittsburgh (her hometown). The shelter deals specifically with domestic
violence survivors and their families -- an issue close to Christina’s heart, as she
often speaks on the domestic abuse she witnessed and experienced as a child.
+ She has publically supported the LGBT community for years.
Christina was supporting the LGBT community long before Lady Gaga
dressed in meat and wrote “Born This Way”! ‘Tina was one of the first mainstream
artists to use gay and transgender images in her 2002 music video for, “Beautiful.” In
2008, she took a public stance against California’s Proposition 8 saying, "Marriage
should be about two people celebrating their love for each other. It shouldn't have
anything to do with someone's sexual preference." She is also the first celeb named
to West Hollywood's Gay Walk of Fame.
+ She is the spokesperson for World Hunger Relief.
Christina has appeared in several public service announcements for World
Hunger Relief, an organization that raises money for the United Nations World Food
Programme (WFP) and several other global hunger relief organizations. According to
WFP, 1 in 7 children will go to bed hungry fonight! “As a mother, the idea that even one
child could go to bed hungry is unacceptable…and that’s why I’m so passionate about
fighting global hunger,” Christina said in a press release.
+ She sang my pre-teen crying song.
Crying song, noun: 1. A song that many sensitive, “heart-broken” individuals
cry to alone in their rooms. 2. Emo.
My current crying song is Coldplay’s “Fix You,” but back in the day, Christina Aguilera
"Reflection" helped me through my first major breakup. And by “major,” I mean that this
guy named Oscar sat with me at lunch on Monday but not on Tuesday. It was devastating.
“Wheeeen will my reflection show whooooo I am insiiiiide?” I don’t know, Christina. I. Don’t. Know. However, I’m certain (or hopeful) that whatever reflection The Wanted saw of you
wasn’t “who you really are inside.”
P.S. We love you both. Keep doing what you're doing to give back.
