Hollywood's Grand Dame of Gossip and Style
Christina Aguilera‘s new singing competition “The Voice” is fast becoming the talked about talent show. They choose contestant based on vocals alone before they see them. One contestant didn’t like being ousted by Aguilera and attacked her backstage.
Does Jordan Bratman have a voodoo doll? In the latest instance of bad news for Christina Aguilera – which follows not long after her infamous Super Bowl flub, her Grammy spill, and getting arrested for public intoxication – new lawsuit claims Sony Music hasn’t paid the rightful owner for the sample of the 1968 song ‘Hippy Skippy Moon Strut‘ (also known as ‘I’ll Be A Lucky Man‘) by Dave Cortez and the Moon People used in her 2006 single ‘Ain’t No Other Man‘.
Per PopEater:
According to a federal lawsuit filed in New York, the classic song’s exclusive rights have been owned by TufAmerica since 2004. However, Sony Music went through Codigo Music and the Clyde Otis Music Group in order for Aguilera to sample the song on her album.
Christina’s label Sony reportedly cleared the rights to the song with the wrong owner! TufAmerica has now filed a lawsuit against Sony demanding they be declared the rightful owners of the song and be paid restitution as well. Fairly easy mistake to make considering the rights to song tracks are constantly being bought and sold.

NBC’s answer to ‘American Idol‘ has found its’ Paula Abdul: The network has announced that Christina Aguilera will be the third coach on the new singing competition series ‘The Voice,’ joining Cee-Lo Green and Maroon 5′s Adam Levine, with the last fourth coach expected to be named shortly. Will she teach everyone to skip a line in a song?
Per EW:
“I am so excited to be part of such a wonderful project that celebrates music and the talent behind it,” Aguilera said in a statement. “To be given the opportunity to help shape new artists’ careers and mentor them to see their dreams come to fruition is a task I welcome with open arms. I am so happy to be working with fellow Grammy Award winners Adam and Cee Lo as I feel there is so much we can all bring to The Voice.”
The timing of the announcement could have been better. Aguilera was stopped and arrested early Tuesday morning after police said she was riding in a car while extremely intoxicated. And lets not forget how she flubbed the lyrics to our National Anthem, or when she fell on stage after singing a tribute to Aretha Franklin at this years Grammy Awards. Someone’s gotta coach the contestants on the fine art of oversinging.
The summer singing competition show – hosted by Carson Daly – will premiere April 26, right about the time American Idol will be down to its top 10. The show features the judges choosing to work with contestants based on their voices alone — they’re not allowed to see them first. Once they choose their favorites, they mentor them to stardom, and America will decide which contestant wins a recording contract and a cash prize.

Christina Aguilera is consuming Lindsay Lohan amounts of alcohol, but her ex-husband is enjoying some bicycling and pot. (Click HERE for Christina Aguilera’s mugshot…)
Some photos of Jordan Bratman smoking weed resurfaced to the net in the wake of Aguilera’s drinking problem and arrest. The pics of Bratman smoking weed and enjoying a ride in 2006 hit ONTD today.
Some hoodlum is up to no good I tell ya. Or it makes good press. Either way I feel bad for Max.

Christina Aguilera has a case of I LOVE BOOOOOOOZE!!!!!! and spends her free time eating bottles of vodka.
Aguilera was taken into police custody after her boyfriend was busted with a DUI while driving her ‘extremely intoxicated’ assets around. (Click HERE for the full details on her arrest…) No charges were brought against her so the Christina Aguilera mug shot wasn’t released. That didn’t stop E! from getting their hands on it.
After Xtina has had a string alcohol related troubles (passing out drunk in Jeremy Renner’s bed, messing up National Anthem lyrics thanks to booze, getting into a fight at the Golden Globes after too much to drink), her friends are hoping that they can talk her into getting help. This has been going on for months. In fact, Aguilera’s drinking is allegedly one of the reasons her and Jordan Bratman split. While ironing out custody agreements for their son, Max, Jordan pointed out her drinking problem as an issue. Eventually they agreed to joint custody. He doesn’t have much room to point the naught finger…he was photographed smoking pot. (Click HERE for those pics…)
It’s kinda sad really because she used to be this gorgeous Ho Queen stuffed with talent. Now she is the Albino Snooki. Pink even pointed out that she has managed to keep herself under control and tweeted:
“Out of Myself, Britney and Christina – didn’t everyone think I was going to be the troublemaker? LOOK MA! NO CUFFS!”
