[edit] Record Sales

Why do people keep changing it to '35 million records' when the source says '37 million records? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Simpsoboy (talk • contribs) 19:34, 2 March 2008 (UTC)


[edit] "Strong Sales"

I consider it urgent for Wikipedia to begin controlling fanatics who try to gloss all of the articles of their favourite divas. Compared to her previous studio records, Back to Basics has hardly had "strong sales", being rather an OK-selling album which went merely platinum in the US, just like (for instance) Madonna's latest record which isn't considered a "strong seller". But anyway, the guys who want to make her sales figures look higher than they actually are would keep putting the word back there eternally... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.110.70.55 (talk) 13:58, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

http://www.hollywood.com/news/Aguileras_Father_Confirms_Pregnancy/4348119

Check it out. And its her abusive father who confirms it...

she already confirmed it herself... i think on e!

[edit] Songwriter? Producer?

Should she really be introduced as a "Songwriter" in the article? Yes, she's co-written many of her own songs; but she's not really recognized as a songwriter because she doesn't write songs for other artists or anything like that. Nathan86 (talk) 08:14, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Oh; and she's only even produced a couple of her own songs so I'm taking "Record Producer" out. Nathan86 (talk) 08:26, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

She do produce songs especially her own but she is not tagged as a producer; maybe a songwriter. BritandBeyonce (talk) 14:23, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Didn't she write "Miss Independent" for Kelly Clarkson? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.16.39.185 (talk) 21:16, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Doesn't count IMO; since she originally intended to release it herself. Nathan86 (talk) 04:51, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Still; by Wiki's definition of 'songwriter,' ("A songwriter is someone who writes the lyrics to songs, the musical composition or melody to songs, or both. That is to say, a songwriter is a lyricist, a composer, or both.") Aguilera would be a songwriter. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.28.109.220 (talk) 06:03, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Well, at any rate she's not a record producer so whoever added that back in please don't do it again. Nathan86 (talk) 06:59, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] she is a producer

she was Executive producer on back to basic's this is not a place to put your own personally opions on someone you clearly hate christina and while the acticle should be fair it's not right for you to take info done just because you done like see someone you don't like doing well a recored producer is someone who produce songs and she has done that doesn't matter if there just her own songs she produced them which makes her a producer to —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.22.206.205 (talk) 03:25, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Birth?

US Weekly says that Christina has not given birth yet, but they are the only source that says this. [5] THE evil fluffyface (talk) 16:54, 12 January 2008 (UTC)


I went to Christina's livedaily page and a member of her management confirmed the birth. The majority pf the published reports say she has given birth. I think the associated press is more reliable than Us Weekly. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.237.241.11 (talk) 17:08, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

^How do you know that someone from her management team confirmed the birth on a messageboard? THE evil fluffyface (talk) 20:53, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Also, this rep for Christina has told Access Hollywood the same thing. [6] I've also yet to see the AP report on Christina's birth--I think most of the reports are taking their sources from either E! or Life & Style, who reported that Christina has given birth yesterday. THE evil fluffyface (talk) 21:05, 12 January 2008 (UTC)


we have everything under control here now with official news! All is sourced and set to Go! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alextwa (talkcontribs) 14:13, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

Would it be possible for someone to add the following information into her motherhood section:

The name Max Liron appears to have a special meaning for Aguilera and Bratman, who is Jewish. In Hebrew, Liron means "my song" while Max means "the greatest". It follows that Max Liron is intended to mean "My Greatest Song" for the couple, both of whom are in the music business.

[edit] Pronounciation

It would be great if someone would add the way her surname is pronounced to the article (like in IPA style). hujiTALK 08:43, 19 January 2008 (UTC)


Pronounciation is not a word, maybe you are thinking of pronunciation —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.70.179.117 (talk) 12:11, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Prominent Singing Styles

Can we please use phrases that make sense from now on please?

[edit] Fourth Album Info.

Can we please keep;

"Currently working on projects for his label, Year Round Records, Premier shared plans to head back into the studio with Christina Aguilera soon.

"I'm definitely working with her on the next album," Premiere said. "She's doing an all pop album again, but she wants me to keep the tone like what we did before. She's ready to start next month...She's so cool, she's like my little sister now."

In the fourth album section? Seeing as the person who posted it has sourced it.[1]

Thankyou.

[edit] Pics Needed

I think we need some pics, especially in the Back to Basics zone. If it's possible another one in the philantrophy and in the endorsement topic would be nice. Olliyeah (talk) 12:15, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Max Liron does not translate in herbrew

Liron does mean "my song" in Hebrew, but Max is of LATIN origin, coming from "Maximus", meaning "the greatest". Could someone change this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.201.19.80 (talk) 23:34, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
