And you can talk about Britney's hits being forgotten all you want, but Christina's hits are ACTUALLY forgotten to the point where people won't even recognize them if you showed them. And you all mock Britney for performing in Vegas, yet praise Christina for literally being a singer-for-hire at bored rich people's houses, which is a much larger indication of being trapped in has-been land.

As someone who always stanned for both equally, no Xtina's music is definitely more remembered if by virtue of her ballads having a more timeless quality. Britney is more iconic and more successful but Xtjna is definitely more respected and her music is more memorable/classic. She made an entire album dedicated to jazz like Knee can't ever
I still shake my head Seeing Britney walk across the stage miming to Oops I did it Again and Baby One More Time in her mid 30s. Those songs were already dated when she was performing them when she was alive in 2004. Everything about her was timely, bubblegum pop. It's fun and enjoyable but it's not like Xtinas music which is more durable. Xtinas legacy is in great hands despite not being as popular. She will beat out Knee, J. Lo, etc when she's in old age. Dance music is harder to sustain
