Aguilera Gets Diva Over Poor Magazine Sales

02_25_2008__opt1.jpg

Christina Aguilera is said to be so fuming about the lack of interest in her recent People magazine cover that she has fired her day-to-day manager, her PR firm (BWR) and an assistant.

The cover, featuring 5-week old son Max Liron, has apparently only sold about 1.3 million copies, less than their usual selling amount.

Maybe if Christina was married to another celeb, there might have been more interest.

The mag paid Aguilera over $1 million for the use of those photos.

According to reports, a source said, “She went crazy and had a massive tantrum. It was astonishing. She was absolutely furious and blamed her staff for the way everything had been handled. She decided BWR had to go, then gave her day-to-day manager and one of her assistants their marching orders too.”

Jennifer Lopez and hubby Skeletor, though, are expected to receive close to $5 million for photos of them with their newborn twins. Wonder if that $5 million investment will pay off? Or will Jen be firing her people as well?

      Or maybe it is just a damn ugly cover. I keep thinking white sausage when I look at it.

      She's really pretty and talented but…she's too damn boring. No offense but she should have waited a little longer to release her pic. New borns all looks sort of alike. Even if she waited a longer for the baby's face to develop…I wouldn't have bought people anyways. I'm just not interested in her or her baby. She was never that big. For Jlo's babies…not gonna lie, i would actually take a look at them in the line at the grocery store. For Brangelina's most definitely will look at it. People say they don't care about celebrities babies…but I think many of us would like to know how they look like. With Christina's…we could care less b/c we don't really care about her in the first place. Like someone else said, she's no trainwreck…just a crazy psychotic bitch.

      Re: JESS

      Who said I was gay? And the correct term is homosexual, bitch. You just need to accept the fact that Christina will be around for a very long time and her fan base will continue to grow. Thank you, have a nice day.

      She's just not relatible. I'm sure she has a personality, but we never see it. It seems she's always in character and trying to be uber cool. See comes off as vapid.

      236

      maybe if she didn't wait til the last minute to CONFIRM her pregnancy, there would have been some build up to the little man's birth and ppl would have been a little more interested in seeing him. Besides.. when you BLAST the cover shot all over the internet and you can SEE him on the cover… what incentive is there to BUY the magazine… none! thats all ppl care about… no one wants to read the article.

      237

      I normally buy People, but didn't this time - who gives a crap about her baby pictures she peddled? Funny thing is, I looked at this mag at my dentist office yesterday. The spread was ridiculous and she should blame herself no one wanted to see it. She probably spent 5 hours caking on the makeup and 5 cans of aquanet for her hair helmet. Get real, maybe if she showed a more realistic side of a new mother, people would be interested.

      Wow… She's acting more like a baby than her son! I have the issue, but only because I'm a subscriber. If I wasn't and I saw it on the newsstand, I might have flipped though it, but I wouldn't have bought….

      240

      The cover shot is boring with the blue lettering and white background making Christina and her baby looking washed out…..also Christina should have chosen a more appropriate look then the come hither look with her baby in arms - looks odd. Someone should have given her better guidance on what to release.

      241

      i like christina, but it's kind of pathetic that she has to do a "sexy face" when she is holding a baby. there's a point where that stupid shit stops and sadly she hasn't figured it out yet. for godshakes' YOU ARE HOLDING YOUR OWN DAMN CHILD!!!!!

    42. sue says – reply to this


      242

      that face on that cover is ridiculous.
      and she's not stupid. she knew she looked liked a jackass posing with her child like that.

      this is so NOT Christina, this is FAKE!!!. She has a record of the Best Selling Maxim magazine EVER!, she's Allure's best seller. SHE CAN SELL, guess she's not a tabloid fave but that's a good thing!, her baby is still the CUTEST!

    44. merlito says – reply to this


      244

      Celebrities do this for their FANS, not just to sell (well atleast for Christina) she's RICH!, she wants her fans to see her baby. She's a superstar and ONLY superstars can grace and put and get paid over photos of their baby. She has many fans and this is for them. Let's see if J.Lo's baby would sell, $6M that's so huge!!! let's just see…

      Hackett won’t discuss actual figures but says, “These numbers are grossly inaccurate” and often “come from competitors who wanted the pictures and didn’t get them. You can almost set your watch to ‘I heard you paid …’ ”

      For Christina Aguilera and son Max, the figure that popped up was $1.5 million, and People was scrutinized in reports that said the issue, dated Feb. 25, undersold. Hackett counters: “I am thrilled with Christina. It was a solid performer and not under expectations. I would buy Christina’s pictures again in a second.”
