I feel like everybody is doing too much with this Christina performance. Social media has been dragging her non-stop, but for her standards and all things considered, it was decent.
Her tone has been kinda weird like she has something in her mouth for a few years now. I first noticed it around Bionic. And she struggles to reach anything that requires too much outside of her chest voice. High notes = grunts or a painful sounding scream.
She stayed true to the melody and arrangements of the songs. And that stopped her from oversinging and doing her horrible runs -- which only happened during the last minute of the performance.
I wanted to go in, but it wasn't that bad.
