Christina Aguilera Talks Paintballing and Politics

After hearing the song Say Something she was so “touched” that she got in touch with the duo, which consists of Ian Axel and Chad Vaccarino. “I called them up, I was basically like, can I be a part of the record? Can we get in a room together and just play around at a piano, nobody else involved, and just see what happens?” she said.  “And we just came together and made the song.”

 

Once Christina got involved, it wasn’t long before A Great Big World were performing on a great big stage at the American Music Awards. “I invited them over after the AMA performance,” the Dirrty singer revealed. “I was like c’mon let’s blow off some steam, let’s celebrate and let’s shoot off some paintball guns in the backyard. “

 

 

“‘Cause they were like ‘oh my gosh, I can’t believe all this is happening to us, how do you deal with all the stress and the chaos?’ and I was like, you just gotta stop for a second and just shoot.”

 

Christina also revealed that she had recently met Hillary Clinton on a trip to Washington, describing the former Secretary of State as having “such an amazing magical energy and presence about her.”

 

Asked whether she thought Hillary could be the next President of the United States, Aguilera replied: “You know I think, us women, we like to make men feel like they run the show but we’re the inner workings. It’s tough being a woman in a man’s environment…we hold our own though.”
