Everyone trying to claim X was overshadowed by Britney, that only happened during their debuts. Britney had better album sales, but X had better single sales and won the Grammy for best new artist.
I would hardly call that overshadowed considering everyone thought Brit would win.
During Stripped, X was far more popular internationally than Britney. Check receipts for album, single sales and awards.
The same could be said for Back to Basics and Circus, both eras are basically on par.
Let's not forget that while Britney was churning out albums year after year to capitalize on her popularity, X was busy developing her artistry and dropping an album every 4 years.
Nobody's denying her vocal abilities or the amount of success she had from her debut era to "Back to Basics". The problem for her career today she deserves all the lashings she gets. Two albums that aren't even pass the 300,000 mark in the U.S, not solo hits in the U.S since Keep's Getting Better and it looks like she won't have a headlining tour for quite a bit.

Just nowadays she's nothing but a feature artist.
Still brainwashed Euphoria really needs to talk to you
Idk about the rest of the FIGHTERS, but I love love Mariah
I just like Xtinas music more even tho "My All" and "We Belong Together" "Heartbreaker"
Are some of my all time favorite songs. I love both of their voices and respect each other's
Achievements. Not to mention they both are some shady divas LOVES IT!
The Army who are allot here have been pressed since 1999 when Xtina overshadowed their fave in both critical and commercial success (3#1's in one album, Grammy Award for BNA) and then finally buried her during Stripped wherein Xtina totally smashed her artistically and commercially.
Xtina actually being respected and taken seriously in the music industry something that their fave never has and never will.
Must suck for your fave's biggest rival to have it all.
The Hive were always pressed and still are that Beyonce' will never be known as "The Voice of a generation" a tittle already issued to Xtina since 1999, they can argue all they want that Bey is known for that but the receipts and public perception say otherwise, Beyonce's bland vocals may have all the technique in the world but everything Jamie Fox's character says to Beyonce in dreamgirls "Because your voice... has no personality. No depth." and that's why she will never have that tittle.
How did X bury Britney when her last successful era was 8 years ago, as to where Britney's was two years ago? Britney has always overshadowed her, it'd be best for you to just get it through your head. And trust me, the Hive is NOT worried about some silly title that really only the Fighters lose their minds over when Bey is smashing X in all areas
I mean what kinda book of lies & delusion did you just write?

The Xfactor proved she's a joke to the GP and nobody cared to tune in like every of her delusional stans thought, and as far as I'm concerned Britney Jean is by far the queen of flops.
I mean FF hasn't even reached platinum with a #1 single that free fell to the pits.
Her performances are just cringe worthy and she's looks as if she was 45, if we Xtina stans are delusional then WTF are you guys?

Girl, nobody tuned into the X Factor for NOBODY. The X Factor is a ****ing MESS. A cancelled MESS. Barack Obama could not have saved The X Factor. Jesus himself could have descended from the sky and sat next to Demetria and not one single ounce of a **** would have been given!!! Britney swooped in, got that CHECK, the EFFORTLESS smash Scream & Shout and LEFT.
Femme Fatale didn't reach platinum, but Christina didn't even go gold, so what is the point of you making that statement? It got a #1 single that free fell? OH WELL. None of Christina's singles even got on the damn plane to fall from. Britney also had a successful second single. And a third.
Her performances may be cringeworthy and she can look 45 if she wants, but the attendees of her SOLD OUT VEGAS RESIDENCY and her previous two tours for CIRCUS and FEMME FATALE don't seem to MIND.
If a cringeworthy, 45 year old, lip synching bitch can sell out arenas and residencies, why can Christina not even book a damn date??????
And that's just BRITNEY. To try and compare her to BEYONCE?? Are you serious?
That's why y'all are considered "delusional" - it's fine to praise Christina's talents, nobody denies her gift; but to try and tear down other artists' accomplishments - especially AS OF TODAY - is laughable.
"They didn't go platinum." Neither did Christina.
"They didn't get a #1." Neither did Christina.
"They didn't ________." Neither did Christina.
"Their tour..." Girl.
Thinking we care about one damn Grammy from 1999. Ch....
The Myah Marie stans gather at Legend X threads like a pack of wild dogs with brittle knees, that's the way it's always been, it's a tradition at this point. The Hive have only recently started to come for X, because since the release of Beyoncé they've become cocky and they wanna feel that their fav is superior to every artist in every way.
isn't it the other way around? some Xtina stans have been pressed for years since their fave has a better voice than Britney but never been as successful?
And you sound very pressed.

This post is the new Jesus. I had thought that when Jesus' Second Coming happened, it would be in the form of a human being, but He has chosen the form of an internet post instead. Glory be to this day and his arrival, and praise his holy name.
Why am I not surprised that it's the Britney, Beyoncé, Mariah, Pink and Avril stans the ones that are in here trying to discredit Xtina? I wonder why!
Let me start with Britney. One would think, when she's supposedly so successful and so influential like their stans like to claim, they wouldn't worry about someone who according to them is so inferior. But the thing is Xtina is not inferior at all. Britney lacks talent, that's why she's always been mocked about being a lip synching fraud her whole damn career, she will ALWAYS be seen as a joke as an untalented person. It's not a coincidence media, critics and GP in general use her as the first and perfect example when they talk about how music industry has become a joke when people like her are more successful (commercially wise) than people with real talent and abilities like Xtina. I guess it hurts them, when someone they admire so much (God knows for what reason) has been panned for her entire career and is basically seen as the face of talentless acts. Yes, she has sold 100 million albums. Amazing, good for her. But the funny thing is legends and icons from the past are not remembered for how many albums they sold, so the thing you cling so much for making Britney so special won't really help once she gets old. "Yeah, she lip synchs all the time but who cares? BOMT sold 25 million". I guess that makes up for her being ridiculed for being talentless in comparison with her peers such as Pink, Beyoncé and Xtina. Her dancing skills? They weren't even that great, specially when you compare her with acts that are far more talented than her even at dancing, which is supposedly her greatest and strongest, or should I say her only talent? Janet, Ciara, Beyoncé and Nicole all make her look like a joke. So what do you really have to back her up? Oh, yes. Albums sales. If you all supposedly already won the war? (What kind of nonsense, what a sad situation) then why is Xtina constantly on your minds? It concerns me that people almost in their 30s showcase hatred and such obsession towards a woman that doesn't even know about your existence and you will never get to meet personally to make a fair judgment about her. As I said, SAD situation.
Beyoncé. I used to think she was irrelevant and a non-factor global wise but she's proved me wrong with her recent tour and album. I admire her dedication, and she's an extremely talented girl, she indeed deserves all her success. But I can't stand her fan base, that's my only problem with "her". They want everyone too see her as the human form for perfection, if you don't they are extremely aggressive towards you. They just don't seem to understand it's a matter of preference, you might think your lady is the best but that doesn't make it a fact. Same applies this time, you're getting the praise, the commercial success, so why would, someone inferior in your eyes (Xtina), bother you so much? We're not saying Xtina's a better technique or is a better vocalist than Beyoncé, all we're saying is people, media, critics and GP identify Xtina as the voice of the (her) generation. That doesn't mean Beyoncé is less of a singer, or a less of whatever the hell she's in your head. Stop being so aggressive and cocky. It's her success, not yours. Your life won't get any better just because Beyoncé is getting sold out stadiums or is selling 3 million in 3 months.
Mariah. I have never tried to discredit her, all I've been saying my whole life is her success is strongly US based, and since most of the people in here and her fans are from the US they fume whenever someone tells them that. She is one of the best vocalist we've had in pop music, she's been influential, yes. She's in a critical condition vocally and comercial wise as of now, YES! So more than anyone else you should understand Xtina's situation. God knows what happened between these two, but again you let the situation between them get personal to you when it's none of your business at all. Mariah's also known as a bitch, so you're kind of trapped since every single thing people use to discredit Xtina applies to your fave as well.
Pink. Mad talented lady, while I've had a hard time getting into her discography I've enjoyed a couple of songs. She's outspoken and she's let us know what she thinks about Xtina multiple times, she comes off as bitter? Maybe. But I don't let it go personal. It's the same story between Xtina-Pink stans, each side always say the other side is pressed and constantly hating on the other girl. So boring. They both do it, one of the ladies have been mature enough to let a +decade old incident go, the other one not so much and her stans like to copy this behavior. Same escenario, if your fave is currently enjoying such a successful momentum why do you bother so much with Xtina?
Avril. I won't even bother with these ones. Your fave is in a worst escenario than Xtina, so you shouldn't even talk about ****, yet you're always present in Xtina threads and you can't even say the same about us and Avril cause her threads rarely reach second page. That's it.
isn't it the other way around? some Xtina stans have been pressed for years since their fave has a better voice than Britney but never been as successful?
And you sound very pressed.
I'm not "pressed" I'm pointing out the obvious.
If you want receipts feel free to browse through Legend X related threads, you'll notice a pattern of posters.
But that's just it, like you said, Christina has the better voice, she is also much more respected and creative therefore we have no reason to be pressed. But I'm glad Britney fans enjoy clinging to sales as a form of validation.

I'm in awe at this post, there hasn't been truer words spoken
britney's online fanbase is almost in their 30s? and yes go on and on about how 'untalented' britney is, if that makes you feel better.
puh-lease you need someone to show you the light, someone that WILL forgive you for your sins, sadly I can't mention her name here without getting warning points altho she has the same name as this village in the UK: click
so much anger tho, is that something you got from your fave?
Maybe it's because after two flop albums she still is praised as The Voice of Generation and is considered one of the most influential on the business.
Also, it must be hard to see big singers like Miss Whitney and Miss Celine praising her "screaming voice".
