Christina Aguilera Real Quotations

I lose myself in my performances so I wouldn't say that I ever act on stage. I don't find it to be an acting drill for me. I just find it to be something very real that comes from a very gut-driven, honest place.

Basically, what I'm saying is there is nothing fake about what I do. I'm up-front, I'm real, I'm honest and I'm open with my feelings.

It's definitely a dream come true to be recognized and to be able to sign autographs. But, it's also a lot of hard work and can be draining. If you don't know already, you will quickly learn who your real friends are.

You need to find the power within to make [things] happen for yourself. When you realize this, you are unstoppable.

For me, my voice and music was always an outlet. Growing up in an unstable environment and whatnot, music was my only real escape.

I enjoy real people, down-to-earth people who are true to themselves and honest to your face - good or bad.

The real beauty - inside, it comes from the heart, where love lives. If not, even the most common facial features can not hide the emptiness, which eventually pushes people.

I talk openly about my past and what I've gone through - abuse being something that was very real in my household, and a lot of chaos growing up as a child. I think that I naturally just gravitated towards music that I could really feel on a deep level - and that meant sadness. I was able to connect with that at a really young age.

Pop is actually my least favorite kind of music, because it lacks real depth.
