Christina Aguilera Declares Her Support For Britney Spears

Christina Aguilera has attempted to bury the hatchet with her former rival Britney Spears, declaring that is important for artists to show support to one another. The singer was recently asked if she had listened to Spear’s latest LP ‘Femme Fatale’, replying that she had not heard it in its entirety but was a huge fan of what she had listened to so far.

Aguilera is currently occupying a role as judge on new US talent show ‘The Voice’. When asked about her feelings towards Spears, the ‘Fighter’ star described her as an “old friend”, commenting on the fact that they had performed together as children on ‘The Mickey Mouse Club’.

She said:"I'm a huge supporter of her and in light of the fact both of our careers started off together and are still going - and going strong - I just think at this point in the game it's extremely important to be supportive of fellow artists."

Aguilera then continued to assert that female artists should support each other rather than feeding media-created animosities. She went on to name some of the artists that she admires, referencing Adele, Florence Welch, Lauryn Hilll and Jennifer Hudson.

Speaking about Hudson, Aguilera said:"Jennifer has a beautiful voice and I truly enjoyed working with her. We became friends after that. She is such a cool, down-to-earth person. She definitely has some pipes and it's effortless for her to hit those notes and a beautiful thing to watch."
