Christina Aguilera revealed that she is a “huge supporter” of fellow pop star Britney Spears while promoting NBC’s The Voice, an upcoming reality competition series in which she will serve as a judge alongside Cee Lo Green, Adam Levine, and Blake Shelton.
“I am a huge supporter of her in light of the fact that both of our careers started off together and are still going and going strong,” Aguilera said of Spears, according to OK! Magazine.
“I just think at this point in the game it’s extremely important to be supportive of fellow artists and especially females who get pitted against each other and torn apart. As an old friend of mine from the Mickey Mouse Club, I think it’s important at this stage in the game to show my support.”
Aguilera is not the only recording artist to express support for the “Hold It Against Me” singer. Ke$ha, who wrote Spears’ current hit, “Till the World Ends,” discussed how she would like to celebrate their success in a statement issued to People.
“Skinny dipping,” she said. “It would be a dress-up-like-Ke$ha-or-Britney party. Either her place or my place, it doesn’t matter.”
