Kashief Mc what?! She sang the whole time. There is background voice on the chorus. So what? U need texture. Anyways she sang that. You can hear her ad libs. They didnt record those ad libs. Youre nuts!
30 yrs old. I remember telling all my friends at the roller rink “you have to get this album, her name is Britney Spears” and immediately after the wave came. This was such an amazing time. These beats/rythyms don’t really exist anymore, they were literally addictive. These pop stars that people now love to joke about were actually much more real artists (imo) than a lot of what we see today. I loved this era so much, but I’m sure every generation says that.
Stop with all the hate. This girl is raw talent. I remember this concert and the good old days when everyone wanted to rock a gypsy or genie like crop top because of Christina and this song. Her voice was always amazing. She was so underrated.
Just a suggestion, you're never going to "stop hate" by yelling at everyone "stop all the hate" in a comments section lol. Also, I'm a big fan and see, like, no hate here- people are entitled to their own opinions. Disagreeing doesn't make it hate
I miss the freaking late 90's and early 2000's! I was born in 97 and my best memories of pop music are from those years! The clothes, the music, the pop stars were SO COOL! I grew up listening to Xtina and I absolutely love her!
I have never seen someone so powerful. Her voice is enchanting, but it's not just that. Her confidence and expressions are 100% , making it to where you can feel what she's singing. I love her sad songs also because she delivers so much emotion in her performances.
They say it's prerecorded... I thought it was too... but when she says "huuuh oh yeah yeah yeah"... you can realize her mic is loud enough to sing without making any effort, if you know what I mean... I think it's live, now...
and everyone knows when she says "rub me the right way" she means treat me the right way. she doesn't actually physically mean rub. because she also says "hormones racing at the speed of light that doesn't mean its gotta be tonight"
In the Spanish version she sings: "Si me quieres junto a ti / Frotame y ya verás / Tres deseos te concedo / Si me juras tu amor" which translates to "If you want me by your side / Rub me and you'll see / Three wishes I'll grant you / If you swear you love me."
The sexual aspects of the lyrics were mostly metaphorical. The core message of the song is that no woman should give her body away on a whim - wait for someone who will truly respect her first. Personally, I'd take it even further and say wait until marriage, but I know others disagree.
For a non professional dancer Christina did a really good job with the choreography while still singing. Holy shot now that's a talent you don't really see today.
This is probably one of the best Genie in a bottle Live video i've seen where Christina danced thru the whole song and sang just as good as album if not better!
I remember this, summer of 99. Britney, Christina and Jessica was here performing. Miss times like this. Majority was like are you Team Britney or Team Christina. I am TEAM BOTH!!! I enjoyed Britney's dance performance. I enjoyed Christina's voice. Both looked really fresh and chart toppers. Miley who? Selena who? These are legends.
People who say Team Christina and Team Britney are stupid (sorry, I don't want to offend anyone) They are blind to see how they were the best friends in their teen lives, they lived like twin sisters! And now imagine you hate the other one because you like one of them... so unlogical !
Oh my God!!!!!! She is absolutely mind boggling!! I mean every word. She is a complete package of a star performer. This is a perfect combination of dancing and singing. Such a talented artist!! Hail!!
Very impressive for her to be able to sound nearly the same as the record all the while delivering the choreography! I miss this stage of her career. Nowadays she doesn't really incorporate dance routines into her music videos anymore.
I hear this song on the radio today & thought I'd check it out here. Awesome & catchy song & amazing performance here! Can't believe she was only 18 here, shes awesome, man! :D
One thing I liked from her debut era is that every song is carefully selected. It is an album full of potential hits and the release of the singles were very carefully thought of. That's why it managed to bag 4 Top 5 hits. After that, everything was all over the place.
What a time! When REAL pop ladies ran the music scene. She definitely has come a LONG way on stage presence though. As a dancer, these arms are killing me but the memories 🥺
Kind of makes me sad watch this back knowing all of the hate she would have to endure throughout her career. I’m so glad she’s still thriving in 2022. 2 platinum singles and 7 latin Grammy noms
she looked super cute here, i miss all this tv shows because i didn´t have pay tv xo, that hair style, i loved the high heels, and the crazy pants jajaja loved every thing from this era
Back when Xtina had no control over her career, she was groomed to be another pop princess who would rival her contemporaries at that time. To be honest, and I know most people would disagree with me on this, sometimes I wished that Christina remained this way, singing radio-friendly pop songs accompanied with excellent choreography, coz honestly Xtina can dance & she knows how to dance! she just didn't really put much focus and attention on her choreography in the succeeding years of her career. Had she done it, perhaps she remained relevant & really attained "true" Icon status up to now. Nevertheless, I'm still glad that I was able to witness this phase of her career.
Completely agree. She also didn't really bother with the music side of things either. She's only put out five albums. I'm surprised she hasn't put anything out since 2012.
Mark Bonjoc She lost her mojo when kids came. I guess she's been tired of the star life and feels like she doesn't need to prove anything anymore. It's a shame because she went down just like Mariah. Irrelevant, old, out of shape.
"True" icon status... Christina is an icon. If your look up any popular singers right now nearly all of them were inspired by Christina Aguilera. Also, many great and legendary singers have all praised her. Some have performed and recorded with her. Her "true" icon status has been reached many times over. And she's not stopping anytime soon.
This concert actually hold huge part of my childhood. My father had recorded this on a VHS tape and I played it probably 5000 times. I remember the woman from Sabrina the teenage witch did some backstage interviewing and a ton of my favorites. Were there, Britney 98°, even a very small band called Boyz ‘n’ Girlz United it was everything.
I can see why she beat Britney in the Grammys. As best new artist. She has an amazing voice. But as far as stage presence Britney is just epic and energy
This is something that britney could never do,singing live while dancing.look at her she singing the song like its nothing,shes just smilling. Christina has always been true to her music.
But Britney is not totally a singer I'd say (not quite, just search up how she used to sing when she was a teenager). But she's a performer, maybe she can't sing the best but she is an amazing performer and dancer!
It's sooooo weird to see her without a mic in hand lol. I'm so glad they let her have one later on lol. I love her so much!!! Favorite singer of all time!!
This was when TV was good... I remember this. They had all the good people for this concert. Christina, Britney, 702, Destiny's Child, Tyrese, Joe, Backstreet Boys, Nsync, etc...... this was most of the new artists first time performing on tv.... I remember my mama allowed me to stay up late to watch this entire event.
Pssh I was born in 1992 and I remember seeing these girls and thinking *gasp* their belly buttons are showing! pssh we sang the songs because they were catchy we were to young to understand that there were sexual innuendos in the songs.
Sou fã da Britney minha diva n·1 mas tbm reconheço o grande talento da Chistina é uma cantora incrivel tbm sou fã dela e acho q as duas tem seu espaço e talentos ♥♥
I loved this Christina..as her music evolved with all the loud growling and stuff I lost interest..but she is very talented and this totally killed.. I will respect her talent always
her vocals have been slaying me for 17 years. Queen!
+Emily Ramos. i love her new video (dove ).
+Emily Ramos same
she's barely actually singing in this.... it's mostly just the back track playing
Kashief Mc what?! She sang the whole time. There is background voice on the chorus. So what? U need texture. Anyways she sang that. You can hear her ad libs. They didnt record those ad libs. Youre nuts!
You should hear mine. I'm better. I'm like Whitney Houston xoxoxox
Being an adult is cool and all, but I watch stuff like this sometimes and gosh the nostalgia makes me a bit teary. How on earth did it to so fast????
ditto. i'm barely a year older than her. pushing 40. HOW THE FUCK DID THIS HAPPEN LOL
Brings a tear to my eye totally happier times being in my 40s
30 yrs old. I remember telling all my friends at the roller rink “you have to get this album, her name is Britney Spears” and immediately after the wave came. This was such an amazing time. These beats/rythyms don’t really exist anymore, they were literally addictive.

a blink of an eye
I feel you 90s was some awesome years!
She devoured. Vocals on point while serving choreo. And looks. Underrated performance
Musta been a hell of a lot of rehearsal time
I always wonder why my mom has a lot of Christina Aguilera posters in her room but after watching her performance I was like girl I now get it.
u mean at 2:19 when she isnt moving her lips, but singing? yea...takes alot of practise to lip sync
@@DrTwizyea pretty sure it was pre-recorded
@@supertiredmerr Some of it is (chorus background vocals), most of it isn't.
Her voice is insane
omg at the beginning i thought it was lipped!! :O cannot believe this was live, her voice was on point, perfect condition damn!
Pensé lo mismo, hasta que dije: "Esto no es playback, esta presentación es mejor que la versión de estudio" :)
It's pre-recorded!
There’s a track.
Sometimes they mix playback. With live
She was not singing live .
Stop with all the hate. This girl is raw talent. I remember this concert and the good old days when everyone wanted to rock a gypsy or genie like crop top because of Christina and this song. Her voice was always amazing. She was so underrated.
Just a suggestion, you're never going to "stop hate" by yelling at everyone "stop all the hate" in a comments section lol. Also, I'm a big fan and see, like, no hate here- people are entitled to their own opinions. Disagreeing doesn't make it hate
Literally no one is hating on her, you freak.
She’s a queen ! Love her
Who's hating on her? I thought Christina was universally beloved.
She is dancing and singing perfectly. This is a real performance.
I miss the freaking late 90's and early 2000's! I was born in 97 and my best memories of pop music are from those years! The clothes, the music, the pop stars were SO COOL! I grew up listening to Xtina and I absolutely love her!
I feel you! And also with Britney Spears
wat
I have never seen someone so powerful. Her voice is enchanting, but it's not just that. Her confidence and expressions are 100% , making it to where you can feel what she's singing. I love her sad songs also because she delivers so much emotion in her performances.
Right, she has such a captivating presence
Man when talent was the first thing an artist had to have. Her vocal control is crazy. You can't hear her breathe or anything and that mic is live.
18 years old back then and already a great performer!Fascinating Xtina!
MMC. You'll thank me.
She was born with swagger
e você nasceu amargo!!!!
Omg..., she was ridiculously good live here
She sounds really good!!! Voice is perfect
live version sounds better than studio version and u could obviously tell its not lip synced
Its a mix between lyp and sing. But she can sing and dance is a real singer. She has a power voice and sing without tire
I am completely obsessed with her vocals at 3:13. She is amazing. Love the dance moves too
I miss the 90s
Who doesn't!! :-(
same here
she came into the music scene hard- she was and still is the bomb!
Ummmmm she was a DISNEY MICKEY MOUSE GIRL!! 😂🤣🙄 she had the BEST in training and ADVERTISING…..Christ…..it’s all nepotism …..
@@6Haunted-Days calm down
They say it's prerecorded... I thought it was too... but when she says "huuuh oh yeah yeah yeah"... you can realize her mic is loud enough to sing without making any effort, if you know what I mean... I think it's live, now...
+ipodtudo i think that is live, she can really sing
They are playing the music and the backing track yes, but She is definitely live. You can ever hear her echo.
+Tony Castro if it was prerecorded it's just because she was dancing as well
playback
Chua Nhan no
Really Great job Christina you definitely showed the world how talented you are congratulations.
Guys.... She is so good that you don't even know if this is pre recorded or live 👍
I thought it was pre-recoreded too until I noticed slight differences in the vocal vs the original. It's live! It's how great she is!!!
wat
It's both.
It's a pre recorded live. She sang over the track earlier. She's not singing here.
@@princessejulie6107 Its pre recorded, meaning she sing before she performs so that it doesn't sound directly like in the recording.
She did all that so effortlessly and on her debut live performance. What an indisputable talent. An icon living.
and everyone knows when she says "rub me the right way" she means treat me the right way. she doesn't actually physically mean rub. because she also says "hormones racing at the speed of light that doesn't mean its gotta be tonight"
I'v always thought "rub me the right way" in the song had a double meaning. It's both how you treat me and how you touch me.
In the Spanish version she sings: "Si me quieres junto a ti / Frotame y ya verás / Tres deseos te concedo / Si me juras tu amor" which translates to "If you want me by your side / Rub me and you'll see / Three wishes I'll grant you / If you swear you love me."
The sexual aspects of the lyrics were mostly metaphorical. The core message of the song is that no woman should give her body away on a whim - wait for someone who will truly respect her first. Personally, I'd take it even further and say wait until marriage, but I know others disagree.
For a non professional dancer Christina did a really good job with the choreography while still singing. Holy shot now that's a talent you don't really see today.
OH MY GOD! She was so cute!
How is her voice so strong and powerful without trying!? Like how is that humanely possible?? She's amazing!
She is so amazing
This is probably one of the best Genie in a bottle Live video i've seen where Christina danced thru the whole song and sang just as good as album if not better!
Her stage presence and energy is so flippin' huuuuuuge! She gave me the chills when the perf ended lol
I remember this, summer of 99. Britney, Christina and Jessica was here performing. Miss times like this. Majority was like are you Team Britney or Team Christina.
I am TEAM BOTH!!! I enjoyed Britney's dance performance. I enjoyed Christina's voice. Both looked really fresh and chart toppers. Miley who? Selena who? These are legends.
Jessica flopped
Don't sleep on Selena
Ariana and Taylor are the new Christina and Britney
People who say Team Christina and Team Britney are stupid (sorry, I don't want to offend anyone) They are blind to see how they were the best friends in their teen lives, they lived like twin sisters! And now imagine you hate the other one because you like one of them... so unlogical !
Oh my God!!!!!! She is absolutely mind boggling!! I mean every word. She is a complete package of a star performer. This is a perfect combination of dancing and singing. Such a talented artist!! Hail!!
She literally slayed this performance!
My best genie in a bottle live
I love you Christina ❤❤❤
Very impressive for her to be able to sound nearly the same as the record all the while delivering the choreography! I miss this stage of her career. Nowadays she doesn't really incorporate dance routines into her music videos anymore.
Part of it could be her age. She's 43 now, not 18 anymore...and the sad fact is that no one beats the clock.
WTF HER VOICE IS MAGICAL HERE. Sounds exactly like the record.
Right, now it’s like she tries to hard.
She is just amazing!
an all time great talent,, up there with the greatest, and most soulful
Damn... Im old..
+melancholia_ How old were you when this performance took place? Haha
+Joe Whitehead i dont remember. Maybe 13-14. Now she looks like a sack of potatos ...just like me:D
+melancholia_ thats not true!!! she was really skinny but shes not fat she is just thick.
jajaja
jajaja
Such a beautiful voice. wish i had it.
I hear this song on the radio today & thought I'd check it out here. Awesome & catchy song & amazing performance here! Can't believe she was only 18 here, shes awesome, man! :D
Singing and dancing together ! First live = perfect
Live
no she wasn’t lol.
she was a copycat, she’s even copying britney’s dance moves in this performance lolll
still a wicked performer even during her younger days
A Star is born.
Her vocals are superb 👍
Always have loved her voice. 💟
The different ranges she sings is amazing...😍😍😍
Holy shit she's fine back then
Peter Tran Nah. She was too skinny
Nadia Nadia for an 18 year old with so much energy? Not bad!
rayva1 true
I'm hotter.
Lysol Disinfectant Wipes lmao!
One thing I liked from her debut era is that every song is carefully selected. It is an album full of potential hits and the release of the singles were very carefully thought of. That's why it managed to bag 4 Top 5 hits. After that, everything was all over the place.
Stripped was a literal cultural reset though
What a time! When REAL pop ladies ran the music scene. She definitely has come a LONG way on stage presence though. As a dancer, these arms are killing me but the memories 🥺
I love dancing to this song!! Christina and Britney are the best!! I love them both!!
I wish she'd do a concert with all her songs in their original arrangement.
A legend 🥲👑
Love her vocals here
This was really good. The vocals and moves were great
Love Brit, but Christina was not only a better singer but a better dancer too. Amazing star!
3:34 wow!!!! That voice is so unique
Her voice is so clear here..
Kind of makes me sad watch this back knowing all of the hate she would have to endure throughout her career. I’m so glad she’s still thriving in 2022. 2 platinum singles and 7 latin Grammy noms
I love her ... always. 90s and early 2000s is the best 👌
she looked super cute here, i miss all this tv shows because i didn´t have pay tv xo, that hair style, i loved the high heels, and the crazy pants jajaja loved every thing from this era
Damn I remember begging my mom to take me to get the Stripped album when it first came out and I was so addicted to it. I miss those days
Staci Valenti I'm still obsessed with her stripped album
+alison Davis me too
This was an incredible performance!!

Spoke too soon, she’s releasing a new album called “Liberation”.
I personally think Christina is much better if a dancer than Britney. I've always found her dancing incredibly and literally stiff.
"True" icon status... Christina is an icon. If your look up any popular singers right now nearly all of them were inspired by Christina Aguilera. Also, many great and legendary singers have all praised her. Some have performed and recorded with her. Her "true" icon status has been reached many times over. And she's not stopping anytime soon.
I really miss the old Christina

Best live performance hands down
This is something that britney could never do,singing live while dancing.look at her she singing the song like its nothing,shes just smilling. Christina has always been true to her music.
Christina wish she can copy britney success
Being Britney herself is Something that xtina can never do LOL
Christina can't dance lol😂🤣
@@x1367 maybe...but she can sing ... a singer should sing not dance... don’t mix up the occupations!
But Britney is not totally a singer I'd say (not quite, just search up how she used to sing when she was a teenager). But she's a performer, maybe she can't sing the best but she is an amazing performer and dancer!
SHE'S AMAZING
I loved her since when she first came out genie in a bottle and my favorite reflection her vocals in her prime slay Queen!
OMG, look how young, how cute ^^ She was and she are so beautiful! Look at this powerful voice, even dancing! Nobody do this today. Love her so much
Oh this was phenomenal for an actual live performance without playback.
She’s look so gorgeous 💗💗
Totally bringing me back ❤️ the 90s ....
she soooo cuteee!!
Flawless performance
It's sooooo weird to see her without a mic in hand lol. I'm so glad they let her have one later on lol. I love her so much!!! Favorite singer of all time!!
Omg I remember watching this on tv back in the day😎great memories and i still love you xtina
This is a soundcheck pre-recorded live that’s being sung along to with adlibs added. Still very good but let’s not lie to ourselves about what it is.
She is such an angel,❤️🌹
I didn’t know Christina could dance so well!
What a voice😍you're amazing Christina💖
Awwwwwww good memories brought me this video. I LOVE HER...
Queen of no autotune
"Diva Game Changer" She came in with exceptional vocals and a great choreo dancer! No one did it before her! Period!
This was when TV was good... I remember this. They had all the good people for this concert. Christina, Britney, 702, Destiny's Child, Tyrese, Joe, Backstreet Boys, Nsync, etc...... this was most of the new artists first time performing on tv.... I remember my mama allowed me to stay up late to watch this entire event.
Bring back memories...
This woman is soooo fu**ing talented, she's a true artist even her mos bubblegum era where she was another teen popstar, she ws awesome
i love this song and this performance 🖤
maybe they just ain't getting signed but why aint the USA producing great singers like this anymore
Pssh I was born in 1992 and I remember seeing these girls and thinking *gasp* their belly buttons are showing! pssh we sang the songs because they were catchy we were to young to understand that there were sexual innuendos in the songs.
I got this song stuck in my head .
She sings perfect!!
Супер! Пробирает до мурашек... Сколько лет прошло, а как будто в первый раз слушаю. Такая энергетика у Кристины❤❤❤
the good old times....
she was absolutely born to be a pop star. She was around 19 or 20 in this video and she slayed literally. So mature and full of confidence.
Most would say that she was in the right age group of becoming a pop star
yeh true
Sou fã da Britney minha diva n·1 mas tbm reconheço o grande talento da Chistina é uma cantora incrivel tbm sou fã dela e acho q as duas tem seu espaço e talentos ♥♥
Ahh sings and dances and its flawless!!!
Way better back in the day I love her so much!
I loved this Christina..as her music evolved with all the loud growling and stuff I lost interest..but she is very talented and this totally killed.. I will respect her talent always
