Christina Aguilera is hot on the promotional trail for her new Spanish-language EP ‘La Fuerza.’
On her press trek, she sat down for an interview with radio host Enrique Santos.
And while much of the discourse centered around the project, talk eventually turned to Xtina’s contemporary Britney Spears.
The pair’s names have long been interlinked, dating back to their days on The Mickey Mouse Club and, of course, the launch of their respective Pop careers.
In recent times, the duo made headlines after Spears oddly appeared to take umbrage with Aguilera for…speaking well of her in the wake of her emancipation from the conservatorship that governed her life for 13-years.
At the time, the ‘Slave 4 U’ singer threw jabs at the 41-year-old for “refusing to speak up” before the legal mandate was dissolved – even though Aguilera is on record doing exactly that.
Still, Xtina didn’t shy away from addressing the topic of Spears when host Santos brought her up.
See what she had to say below…
Carefully but candidly navigating the matter, Aguilera said:
“I’d never want to speak out of term about somebody that I have so much respect and admiration for…
But I’m so happy…I couldn’t be happier for her. Every woman deserves to feel empowered and to own that for themselves, however they see fit.”

Well said.
