Didn't she "trash" britney AFTER the vmas in the blender magazine? ... and did she really trash her? She said britney was sad and lost and needed guidance, she also said said britney didn't sing live, all that is true.
When did she say something negative about britney before the vmas 2003?
Calling someone sad and lost is an insult to the person at the receiving end, since they rarely are self aware
THANK YOU!! So annoying how people on this forum continue to bring that up as if Xtina saw Britney was in trouble and was looking out for her.
I’m sorry, I love Xtina but that comment was not meant to help Britney or to bring attention to what she was going through. It was a petty comment that X said because she was sick of being compared to Britney and she was rightfully pissed about what happened at the VMA’s. She wanted it to sting.
She had every right to respond the way that she did but let’s not sit here and pretend that it came from a place of love and concern. We learned years later however that Xtina secretly wrote Britney letters during her meltdown which to me means more than that comment from 2003.
Sis, let's be really crystal clear about the dynamic here.
As you and others have acknowledged, Christy has been subjected to comparisons with Broccoley for her whole career. That on its own would be enough to drive anyone to violence. However, in this case, it was especially demeaning because the two girls have literally nothing in common beyond the age of 10 or whenever MMC ended. Christy is an artist and a vocalist and an intelligent, articulate, and independent woman, and for a time she was also trying to be a visionary and a revolutionary on the music scene.
So let's also acknowledge that these false equivalencies that the media repeatedly threw at Christy were actually meant to dismiss her artistic merit and contributions, and to devalue her talent.
Do I think she said what she said in Blender in order to draw attention to Broccoley and hopefully get her some help? No, of course not. It would be years before anybody had any idea how bad off she really was.
However, do I think she was being deliberately malicious in her comments? Also no. I believe in that moment Christy was giving Broccoley exactly the consideration and importance she actually deserved: almost none. To me, that comment was all about Tine and the media.
So for all the girls in here reading this and thinking Christy just unnecessarily came at Broccoley, I want everyone to remember it was the media that always inserted Broccoley in order to mess, not Christy.
And let's also keep in mind that there was not one single lie uttered in the entire quote from Christy.
