The television persona of GRAMMY winner Christina Aguilera is built on her successful body of work as a musician, which has grown in the past three weeks with three releases from her album Liberation, which is expected on June 15.

On her latest single, "Fall In Line," she is joined by Demi Lovato for the lyric video released on May 16. The two will give the song its debut live performance Sunday at the 2018 Billboard Music Awards. Her duet with Lovato presents feminism and women's liberation as extremely personal, based on the point that "all the truth in a girl is too precious to be stolen from her."

Collaboration seems to be key on Xtina's upcoming album. Aguilera was joined by 2 Chainz and Ty Dolla Sign for "Accelerate," which dropped on May 3 and was produced by Kanye West. The audio for "Twice" went online on May 11.

Her most recent full-length studio album was 2012's Lotus, and Aguilera's most recent GRAMMY win was Best Pop Duo/Group Performance at the 57th GRAMMY Awards with A Great Big World for their 2014 "Say Something.". This year seems like it's off to a great start as fans catch on to her album's inspiring previews and new fans become drawn in by the singer's ability to bring a song to life.

Tickets for Aguilera's Liberation tour, which runs September through November, are currently on sale via Ticketmaster.

On March 20, O magazine published a playlist meant to wake you up and start the day off right. It credits research in psychology for revealing that "songs with a slow build, a positive message, and a strong beat" can confer mood-enhancing benefits. Just for fun, we also took a look at how GRAMMY recognition shines a spotlight on some of these tracks. It's no surprise that the Queen of Soul herself stood out, as Aretha Franklin's "Respect" took two wins at the 10th GRAMMY Awards.

Other GRAMMY winners in the selection include Christina Aguilera's "Beautiful," Shania Twain's "Man! I Feel Like a Woman!" and "Stronger" by Kanye West. With Britney Spears' song "Stronger" making the list as well, from her Oops!...I Did It Again album, a double-shot might give you twice the energy.

At the 45th GRAMMY Awards, Sheryl Crow was nominated for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for "Soak Up The Sun," and Vanessa Carlton drew three nominations for her "A Thousand Miles," including Record Of The Year and Song Of The Year. Two songs from O's list received nominations at the 56th GRAMMY Awards, Katy Perry's "Roar" and "Brave" by Sara Bareilles. The latter topped the playlist and its curator reassured us that if you give it a morning listen, "You'll believe you can conquer anything."

Beyoncé made the list twice, once for her solo "Run the World (Girls)" and again for Destiny's Child's "Happy Face." Lady Gaga offers "The Cure" and Kirk Franklin's "I Smile" might help you tackle your day smiling, too. Two songs to help you find up when you're down are "No Tears Left to Cry" by Ariana Grande, from her 2018 album Sweetener, and Demi Lovato's "Skyscraper." 

Whether you say "Hello, Good Morning" with P Diddy or have a "Lovely Day" with Bill Withers, prepare to get out of bed with a spring in your step. Spring is almost here. Check out other songs ready to assist at O — from Earth, Wind & Fire, Ice Cube, Lil' Duval, and Bob Marley.

It's official. It's Christina Aguilera's world, we're all just living in it. Her highly anticipated eighth studio album Liberation is here.

On June 15 the GRAMMY-winning singer/songwriter released the full studio album, her first since 2012's Lotus. Aptly titled Liberation, Aguilera sets herself free across the album's 15 tracks.

We already heard "Like I Do" with rapper GoldLink, "Accelerate" featuring Ty Dolla $ign and 2 Chainz and "Fall In Line" with none other than Demi Lovato. Now we also get to sink our teeth into tunes such as "Right Moves" with Keida and Shenseea, "Pipe" featuring rapper XNDA, "Dreamers," "Unless It's With You," "Deserve," and "Twice."

The queen is back.@xtina returns with #LIBERATION.

— Apple Music (@AppleMusic) June 15, 2018

The album features songwriting and production from the likes of Kanye West, Julia Michaels, Justin Tratner, Anderson .Paak, and Che Pope, collaborations that have led Rolling Stone to hail the album, saying Xtina "flexes her diva power" while calling her "the leading voice in the 21st century's own class of pop divas." Was there ever any doubt?

"I'm a performer, that's who I am by nature," Aguilera told Paper about the album. "But I'm at the place, even musically, where it's a liberating feeling to be able to strip it all back and appreciate who you are and your raw beauty."

The 2018 Teen Choice Awards announced many of their nominees on June 13, putting an array of America's most beloved entertainers up for popular voting that is now open and sure to be extremely viral.

For some quick tastes from the top categories, Choice Female Artist nominees are Camila Cabello, Cardi B, Ariana Grande, Dua Lipa, Demi Lovato, and Taylor Swift. This year's Choice Male Artists include Drake, Niall Horan, Bruno Mars, Shawn Mendes, Ed Sheeran, and Louis Tomlinson. Those are great selections to choose from.

Voting is open either online via TeenChoice.com or by Twitter hashtag, one per Tweet by pairing a name with #ChoiceMaleArtist or #ChoiceFemaleArtist. The limit on enthusiasm is 10 votes per day, per category, for each platform user ID, a wrinkle some multiplatform fans are likely to use effectively. Among other things, for the musical artists, this really is a chance for their fan bases to show their love.

Get ready to move those thumbs — voting is officially OPEN for the 2018 #TeenChoice Awards! Submit your vote by tweeting with the category hashtag the name/handle of your choice, or head here: https://t.co/vqru7XJP9J pic.twitter.com/OwC0bx0kWh

— Teen Choice Awards (@TeenChoiceFOX) June 13, 2018

The competition in each category is interesting, for example Choice Latin Artist nominated J Balvin, Becky G, CNCO, Daddy Yankee, Luis Fonsi, and Maluma. J Balvin is super fresh, Becky G has many teens who identify with her, and Daddy Yankee and Luis Fonsi had last summer's biggest hit.

So the viral chase is on for fans to vote their Teen Choice Awards favorites up the ranks. On August 12 the winners will be announced live on Fox.

The dynamic duo slays their captors in empowering new video for their joint track

We heard the single, saw their performance at the 2018 Billboard Music Awards and now Christina Aguilera and Demi Lovato have gifted us with the full music video for their powerful joint track, "Fall In Line."

With direction by Luke Gilford, the video shows childhood friends Xtina and Demi peacefully enjoying a field before being captured by two black-armored guards. Flash forward, the adult singers are held captive, forced to perform in black leather outfits by the guards and kept behind locked gates.

The powerful duo, however, is too strong to be held back. By the time the key modulates during the song's climax, Aguilera has disarmed one guard, unlocked the chains that bind her to join Lovato in taking out their captors and climbing to freedom as they sing "I got a fire in my veins/I wasn't made to fall in line."

— Demi Lovato (@ddlovato) May 23, 2018

"Fall In Line" is one of three singles Aguilera has released ahead of her upcoming June 15 album, Liberation. Given the themes in this music video and her album title, it seems the GRAMMY-winning singer/songwriter is ready to unleash her inner power.
