The female body is something that's so beautiful. I wish women would be proud of their bodies and not diss other women for being proud of theirs.

For a shield from the storm, for a friend, for a love to keep me safe and warm...I turn to you. For the strength to be strong, for the will to carry on...for everything you do, for everything thats true, I turn to you.

It's frustrating always being compared to Britney because we are two very different artists... We both dance and sing but people have not yet had enough time to realise that there is a huge difference between us. If she wants to go and do something, I'll want to do the opposite.

I like to be as free as possible at all times.

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

The sky is the limit. I'm just following where life takes me. It's been an incredible journey.

Whether you like me, or hate me, this is me.
