I've watched this DVD many times, and each time I discover a new awesome fact about Christina. Christina talks to you about her life, narrating the 84 min. video, and just gives you the feeling you really know her. This is very informative. It includes music videos for "Genie in a Bottle," "The Christmas Song," and "What a Girl Wants." Plus it shows her rehearsing in a studio, her and dancers hanging around, and who she is when she isn't performing. Many little home videos in it, too. This is defintly a must-see for everyone. Worth the money, it is terrific!

this is just soooo cool! there's a lot of scenes where shes performing, and her talking about what she really wants to say. i personally like come on over the most cuz it sounds fun and it's a song that you can really dance to. all of her songs are just soooooo great- i love her singing and dancing. christina is no 1! :-)

When I bought this video, I was expecting to see actual concert performances of the songs on the listing. To my horror,there were only a few edited concert footage and they were all dubbed with the music from the audio CD. For the other songs,it was worse. It was just Christina in the studio, singing to the microphone all the time with the exact sounds from the audio CD!!

Christina Aguilera, unlike some singers like Celine Dion (who sings live in the same way she sings on her CDs) , has a talent in improvising her songs during her live performances. This video should have featured her actual concert performances - undubbed and unedited! I am sure, in her live performances, she could come up with many new stylisations in her songs which alas, I did not hear much in this video. I did not buy the video expecting to hear the same sounds which I could have got from the audio CD.

The video is really only worth the two songs that are not found on the audio CD - At Last and The Christmas Song. I felt there wasn't much new nor surprising stuff here. As for the talk Christina gave on the video, it wasn't exactly inspiring either.

VERDICT: Borrow this video if you can.

I just love Christina and when I purchased this video, I had to watch it every day for 2 weeks! I still watch it often. I loved getting to see her music videos and other performances. I can't wait till her new dvd "out of the bottle" comes out! All christina fans must get this video NOW! It's a must!

When my dad got this for me for Christmas, i couldn't put it down. Seriously! I watched it at least 3 times a day. It is absolutely amazing. Buy it quick!

This video is awsome! It really gets close-up with Christina. It shows how she simply adores her fans and loves her family. This young star will be around for a very very long time. Right when you watch her perform "At Last" and "The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire)" with just a piano you will see exactly what I mean.

if you're not one, then why would you watch it? Well, I'm getting used to the newer Christina now, but it's still nice watching her when she still had that teenie bopper look, one thing about her, if you look at her diary, you realize that she really hasn't changed a bit. She's grown much, but she's still really cute. This dvd consists of some songs from her 1st album, self-titled, including Genie In A Bottle, What A Girl Wants, When You Puts Your Hands On Me, I Turn To You(video wasn't released at the time) and So Emotional. They final product is put over the live so she can have different shots during the video, more stuff, less exciting. Also, the Etta James song she always sings, At Last, the only one that's live, crappy quality though, and The Christmas Song in a beatiful room with candles and a guy playing the piano. The dvd is 1 hour and 14 minutes long, almost as long as a short movie. We see her grow up as a child and learn many facts about her. She actually never had any singing lessons before she auditioned to Mickey Mouse which to me, is unbelievable. Amazing girl, with extrodinary vocal talents, buy this today!

This video is a must-see if you are interested deeply into Christina Aguilera. It isn't one of those cheesy Unathorized videos, but instead has Christina Aguilera narating it and such. It shows some concerts, her talkin and explaining herself, and also has a bonus: her music videos for "Genie in a Bottle" and "What a Girl Wants." It taught me a lot about Christina and it was so much fun to watch. Maybe all you Christina-haters will realize she is a totally awesome person. In the video, you feel like you know Christina very well. It's very good, worth the money, definitly. It's 84 mins of good info!

THIS DVD IS AWESOME. NOT ONLY DOES IT HAVE HER SINGING HER BEST SONGS, BUT LOTS OF BEHIND THE SCENES ALSO. AND IT'S 84 MINUTES LONG. CHRISTINA IS THE STAR OF THE FUTURE. SHE HAS SO MUCH TALENT. AND THIS DVD IS REALLY WELL MADE.

When I bought this video I watched it the second I got home and watched it every day for about three weeks. It is exactly what you need if you have a christina craving and you'll never get tired of it. The dancing and singing is incredible and so is the behind the scenes footage. I loved it!
