When I first met my husband, I needed that helping hand to take the reins and look after me.

Certain people want to see me solely as a pop act, but there are many different sides to Christina Aguilera besides the pop girl.

It's been a joy to be a part of other people's journey, to be able to inspire and be a part of new singers coming up in this business.

Some people are afraid of change and [feel] that getting older is a bad thing, but I really love maturing and gaining wisdom, and the experience of being pregnant and having a child and seeing what a woman's body can do is amazing.

I think that whatever size or shape body you have, it's important to embrace it and get down!

I enjoy real people, down-to-earth people who are true to themselves and honest to your face - good or bad.

Getting older, you just don't want to sing fluffy.
