Christina Aguilera's COME BACK



Christina Aguilera is determined to have a big come back, since she has hit rock bottom in 2010 with the cancelation of her sixth studio album Bionic tour due to disappointing ticket sales, followed by a divorce and a not-so-successful first featured film Burlesque

Not only her career was in jeopardy, she was also arrested for intoxication in public not long after she was announced to be the judge/ coach on NBC new singing show The Voice. Even during the show, contestants on her team claimed she didn't help them much and was spotted flirting with her boyfriend on set. She was even caught on live TV that she was being disrespectful by constantly playing with her phone while the contestants were performing. 

Despite all the negativities, the success of the Voice seems to say the otherwise, beating rival FOX's The X Factor US which her long time rival Britney Spears is also on the panel. Earlier this week Xtina announced she would be leaving the Voice for its fourth season (Shakira will take her seat), expressing she wanted time to do her own stuff, and an artist again.

Releasing her first single Your Body from her latest album Lotus which is due in Nov on the premiere week of the Voice. Receiving mostly positive reviews. Seems like she is ready to have her come back. Also she has confirmed that she has been working with different artists on her new album, which promised her awaiting fans that they would be hearing loads of genres in Lotus. She even uses a simple of Midnight City from M83. Whether Lotus will be her come back or not we still have to wait for its official release.

As for now lets enjoy the glorious Your Body:


And here is a teaser for the video:
