Musically, the whole night was a disaster with the surprising exception of the girl from _Glee_ singing America The Beautiful. She was the only highlight (artistically). Aguilera should be banned from future public performances. ---

I was too busy hating on her vocal masturbation. Totally missed it. ---

I assume I would have, as I always sing along (in my head if not out loud), but I didn’t watch it before being told that she messed up. ---

[![]( " - YouTube") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WB61wXKROtw) I’m not a fan of her style of singing, but other than that one little “watched” error what’s the big deal that has everyone talking about how awful it was? It sounds like just about every other female singer of her genre to me. And by everyone I mean everyone everywhere, not just here. It’s like the talk of the Super Bowl. Hell I don’t even know who won. It’s worse than the Nipple Incident. ---

It sounds like just about every other female singer of her genre to me. Yes, well, that’s the problem from my viewpoint - I don’t like that genre of singing. ---

Me neither. I can’t think of any other style of singing that when the song’s over - whether it’s Whitney or Celine or Mariah or Christina - I’m feeling nothing but disgust and an overwhelming urge to yell “Shut The Fuck UP!!!” ---

Since I didn’t watch the Super Bowl, I didn’t notice. She could have been singing in Chinese for all I knew. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/did-you-catch-christina-aguileras-flub-at-the-super-bowl/570519.md?page=2)
