  • I am a solid CHRISTINA AGUILERA fan. I love her like CRAZY! In my opinion Christina is PERFECT for the role. She has all qualities: the acting chops, a great figure, a voice of an angel, the dance moves and flawless beauty. GO CHRISTINA!

  • This role couldn’t have gone to anyone better. Christina deserves it ‘cos she has the talent and the face to be on camera. This girl carries herself like a show woman - she has magnetism and charisma..presence.. and the girl can definitely sing, act and dance her ass off. Yes, call her a triple threat!

    • She really is an admirable woman. What I love about Christina is her existence on the public. She’s proven her worth as a dynamic singer, songwriter, dancer, entertainer and performer. And now she’s making her debut as an actress in an upcoming movie. I say, good luck Christina. She's truly amazing and an inspiration to all!

    • Christina’s so versatile with her music, she can pull off anything! She’s a doll face, a great singer and a great entertainer. As they say in show biz, break a leg Christina! So looking forward to this movie, I hope it’s a winner.

  • Since seeing Christina on SNL I've been waiting for more from her, but I am happy she didn't rush into anything.

    I wish her all the best, acting isn't the easiest of the performing arts. If SNL was a preview then she'll be fine. My only advise is that she research as much as possible about her character and let that work for her.
