This is correct. Someone earlier asked why everything has to be so hard for Christy. But it's because the choices she makes -- to drop records and leave them out there with no promo, for example -- have exactly the intended result: she gets to lay low and enjoy her life. But the industry has to keep on going with or without her. I believe she has withdrawn into her private life and her shoddy inner circle because of past traumas, but I also hope she is starting to see that there is a place for her voice and that it's a different world now and she can come back out to play a bit. And if she does, I also believe she still has that big moment ahead of her.George wrote: ↑Thu Nov 17, 2022 11:39 pmI agree with this. But at the same time, I feel an artist needs to be living and breathing their record to have that big moment of huge critical acclaim. I don’t doubt her passion for the music but Christina hasn’t performed many of the songs, and probably never will. We know for sure she wasn’t campaigning much, if at all, for wins. I’m feel she’ll be delighted with one award and happy for the artists that won.Data wrote: ↑Thu Nov 17, 2022 11:27 pm I'm happy for the win, she deserves it!
But fuck any of you rationalizing her not winning more by her "not being latina enough", or "not promoting enough".
Christina belongs as Latin GRAMMY winner many times over & she deserved SOTY or ROTY + would've been an excellent choice for AOTY aswell.

I doubt she would’ve showed up regardless for Say Something. I think she wanted it to be AGBW’s moment. Summer Rain was also only 5 or so months old.StrippedPart3 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 17, 2022 11:40 pmRight? It really has been a long time since she got a televised non legacy award.

This probably hasn’t happened since Stripped. The Grammy awards did her dirty with ANOM not being a televised award. This is such a good moment for her being 24 years into her career. There’s not many legends able to do this so deep into their careers without playing the political game.
Xtina did not attend. So it's immaterial whether the award is televised or not.StrippedPart3 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 17, 2022 11:40 pmRight?
