Christina Aguilera looks kind of alien-like on the July 2011 cover of W Magazine.
The 30-year-old singer opens up to the magazine about a tumultuous year that saw her make headlines for her divorce, flubbed lyrics, an on-stage fall, and an arrest.
“Sometimes, especially in the last six months, I still feel like going to the window and singing out all my troubles," she says. "I laugh a lot lately. People expect me to cry, but I always laugh when things go wrong.”
Aguilera has since found success again, as a coach on NBC's hit reality series The Voice.
Always a fighter, Christina says she'll continue to pursue what makes her happy, with a little inspiration from some music icons.
“I really admire all the greats,” she says. “They’ve had their ups and downs during their careers. And I would never go down without a fight. I still have my eyes on the prize: I want to be that old lady onstage shaking her hips and singing her greatest hits.”
