Christina Aguilera Sings A Different Tune, Says She Thinks Lady Gaga Is "Great"

After blasting Lady Gaga and saying that the comparisons between the two were "not even worth wasting the breath to comment on," Christina Aguilera has issued a formal statement of sorts saying that she has no bad blood with Gaga. Xtina writes on her official website:

Dear Fans,

I would like to take a moment to clarify something that has been brought to my attention this morning. It is very easy for comments to be taken out of context and create unnecessary drama-especially between us women. So I would like to tell you all directly so my words can not be misconstrued to sell someone else’s story…I have absolutely nothing against Lady Gaga or any other female artist in this business. I think she is great, and I appreciate any woman fearless enough to go against the norm. She has earned her success with hard work and a clear focus and I have nothing but respect for that.
There is room for all of us on everyone’s iPods.

This is not the first time I have been unfairly pitted against another female artist but it will be the last time I comment on the matter.

“Can’t hold us down….”

With love,
C/X

But she's not going to comment on the coughing incident?
