OH SNAP. Watch The Wanted totally diss Christina Aguilera! When the British boy band, whose “Glad You Came” has topped the charts in America, appeared on The Voice to perform, they report she could not have been less friendly.

“She was a bit scary to be honest,” band member Max George says during an interview with New York’s 92.3 FM.

“She was a total bitch!” says Tom Parker, adding, “She might not be a bitch in real life, but to us she was a bitch to us. She just sat there and didn’t speak to us.”

Unlike Jennifer Lopez, who, when the boys appeared on Idol, was really friendly. “Yeah, well JLo’s hot, Christina’s nothing special,” Max explains.

Watch the interview below. The Christina diss starts at the 2:50 mark.

    I didn’t know Christina personally invited them to sing on the show.

    Xtina may not be the nicest person in the world, but at least she takes her job seriously. She has a laser-like focus on HER team, and everyone else can kiss off.

    I don’t know why people think Xtina was so rude to Tony Lucca. He performed and she gave her opinion. You can agree or disagree. If Simon Cowell had said the exact same words, no one would have called him rude. Lucca does not deserve special treatment because he worked with Xtina when they were kids.

    Someone needs to tell Bieber that the world does not revolve around him. As for the Wanted, they’re at 14 minutes and counting.

    Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.  It can’t be sheer coincidence that so many people who meet Christina independently of one another walk away with the same impression.  Christina needs to remember that she WAS somebody and the reason why she is being relegated to a reality show judge is that the music buying public no longer finds her relevant. (same for J-Lo).  The same can not be said for Britney.   Bottom line- Christina needs a reality check, and she needs to tone down the stink face attitude.

     If Christina still had a “virtual patrol” she would still be selling albums.  Her best move would be to ignore them.  Why give them free press?  However, based upon past actions, she will either come right back with a snarky response, or put out some sugary sweet apologetic response that will be drenched in passive aggressive tones, thus proving the Wanted right. Any response from her is lose-lose.

    Oh well.  I don’t feel any particular way about what these guys said about Xtina only that they are in general a little rough and crude.  I like 1 D much better.  Still I don’t think celebs should go about bashing each other or being rude to each other.  Graciousness to the the previous generation and the next generation goes a long way. After all, Xtina was where these guys were at one time. And its not like we will even be talking about The Wanted in 10 years.  

    And as for rudeness, Xtina has shown her own lack of grace in those comments she had made to Tony Lucca. Those brits probably read her right when it came down to it.

    Christina dissed him when she didn’t remember Tony’s name.  I’ve noticed that she knows full names when she’s talking to others so to me she did that to try to put him in his place.  

    She can be petty at times and loves to get the digs in towards the other judges in her comments to their singers.  It’s fine to criticize but I don’t like it when any of them have obvious ulterior motives.

     She was not just rude to Tony Lucca. Tony Vincent gave an interview to Hollyscoop TV in which he said Xtina was rude and negative. The video is on the internet but I will not post it here. She has been negative and rude towards other contestants. I just do not support that type of behavior from anyone.

    I think Christina does come off full of herself on the Voice but then isn’t that part of the act to create some drama on the show. I have to say her voice still sounds very good and she was one of the best things in Burlesque. Sometimes negative publicity can be good. In this case, Christina didn’t commit a crime so she’s just getting more publicity.

    This isn’t the first time The Wanted have talked shit about another artist.  They’ve ripped into One Direction as well recently.  And have talked disrepectfully about woman quite often.  They’ve been taken to task for it very recently.  Obviously they haven’t learned a damn thing.

    They’re a PR nightmare.  There’s a reason why the little girls are screaming over 1D and not them.

    As far as if Christina was a “bitch”.  Well, I wasn’t there.  But even if she was, that doesn’t justify The Wanted shooting their mouths off like they are – ALL. THE. TIME.

    Nice little controversy for Saturday afternoon.  LOL.  Do I think Xtina can be a diva?  Absolutely. Do I think these boys are whining, sexist idiots with little talent?  Absolutely. Do I believe JLO can be a diva when the camera’s aren’t on?  Absolutely.

    Xtina is a talented singer.  I’m not her BFF so do not care if she has a tude.

    u have no clue what u are talking abt.she was right abt tony lucca and guess what,firstly he took it personal but realised it was nothing of that sort except christina just wanted him to push himself more as for tony vincent,while blake was criticizing him ,christina was always giving him high praise,he`s another 1 with an ego and need to get over himself,stop believing everything u hear,Until u hear it str8 from her mouth then believ other than that stop entertaining the he say she say nonsense.This talentless boy band ain`t going to make it,they suck big time and need some1 to give them a good hard slap in their faces,so disrespectful and ill mannered using her name for popularity!

  • sexyting86

    don`t think she wil respond,she`s been in the game long enough to know what to reply to.kelly osbourne tried it twice of recently and xtina never replied refusing to give her the 15mins fame that she wants and she`s not going to give the wanted that either.

    Advice to The wanted: Be more diplomatic. Although I am sure Christina had attitude problem, The Wanted just didnot had enough fame to diss Christina. If they are as big or pass Christina, maybe they can diss her. But they are also had attitude problem  for calling her with B word.
     
    After all, in entertainment industry, image still is everything. Though guys can had a free pass in US entertainment than girls. There were almost  no second cahnce for trouble women stars.
     
     
    ITs really a major disaster for The Wanted PR to clean this.
     
    (Chris Brown, R Kelly, Kanye West,  etc etc can bounce back though their attitude and others   are really  the worst. But if it is a woman, its hard to recover. Lindsey LOhan struggling to back to top of her game after bad press and attitude)

     Tony Vincent said it right in the interview. You don’t have to believe me as Tony said it in a taped interview. Here is the link if it works: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zc2FjfhSbew

    I have no doubt that Xtina is a Diva Supreme and probably not the most warm and fuzzy person to be around. I just can’t help but note that when someone like Simon Cowell (i.e., someone who is MALE) tells singers they sound “dreadful,” he is lauded for being honest and uncompromising, but when someone like Xtina (i.e., someone who is FEMALE) tells a singer he seems “one dimensional,” she is called rude, petty, & bit***y.

    I read elsewhere that a runner on the show said one of the Wanted asked her backstage if she felt more beautiful because she’s lost some weight.  Uhh.  If true, I don’t blame her.  He also told her not to worry that Britney needed to work on her body before x-files.  Ummm..  mindless gossip, but if true, I don’t blame her.

    As I said before, it doesn’t bother me that she shunned them either way.

     I am actually not a fan of The Wanted, Christina Aguilera, or Tony Vincent so whatever. Everybody can believe what they want because it does not really matter to me.

    Here’s the link to the runner story.

    Like I said, who knows?  Could have been planted by xtina’s people.  Still.  Not impressed with the Wanted.

    After Christina’s rude put downs of Tony Lucca in front of millions of TV viewers, not to mention her obviously ungracious attitude towards Justin Bieber which everyone saw on live TV, its not surprising that she is now the recipient of the public put-downs.  Not only can Christina be a ‘bitch’—-so can KARMA!

    Did people not get the memo? Christina is a “DIVA.” A real, live, flesh-in-bones, DIVA. Adjust your expectations accordingly.

    I guess being invited back is not important to this boy band, but boy bands career length are so short so it doesn’t really matter.
