Capsule review: Christina Aguilera - Stripped (2002)


It's a conundrum that Aguilera's most indulgent (from a very indulgent artist) is also her best. Sure, if she doesn't get her coffee in the morning, life's still 'impossible'. She 'broke the mold' that way, I guess. Sure, there's an interminable string of ballads at the halfway point of a long record. But it's filled with moments that work ('Can't hold us down', 'Walk away', 'Fighter', 'Beautiful', 'Dirrrty' and more). One question: what happened to her feet on the cover picture? She doesn't have any? That's indulgence, I guess.
