I'm glad the audience reacted to it well.I don't care about her lipping unless the song is a ballad."The VMAs were so . . . so vanilla,” she says. “So safe, so predictable, no edge. Apart from Madonna, Mary J. Blige and myself, I cannot think of another female performer who had her mic switched on. That is very disappointing to me. I agreed to do it in the first place only because Madonna had told me that it was mandatory to sing live.”Something palpable happens to Aguilera when she talks about Spears. She loses eye contact, focuses on her cuticles and grows visibly uncomfortable, as if wary of saying too much. But her dissatisfaction clearly needs a voice, and she duly gives it one. She suggests that although Spears sang live during rehearsals, when the show went on the air, she was lip-syncing.“Who knows what happened, exactly,” Aguilera says, sighing. “She was supposed to, but somewhere along the line. . . . I don’t know. Maybe some money changed hands under the table? . . . ” She trails off awkwardly, then changes tack. “I’d much rather just wash my hands of the whole nonsense, actually. These people aren’t artists, they’re just performers — fake and superficial, like the entire event. I’m very disappointed with MTV. Just look at the way they handled the kiss.” Prev 12 3 4 5 …146 147 Next Forum Jump Welcome To FOMM Mariah Carey Mariah Hall Of Fame General Discussions Other Artists Off Topic Hall Of Fame Feedback & Resolutions Quick Reply bbcode help Use Smilies (Complete smilies list) Convert URLs Subscribe to this topic Preview Quick Reply
