“Britney and Christina had mostly been in media wars, and it seemed both are even. But Christina has vocal power, whereas Britney had lip-synced. And when she did sing, she can’t hit the right notes. Also, she can stay away from tabloids. And Britney damaged her career by being in a tabloid every 4 seconds.”
