I enjoy Christina's music and not so much Britney's (I base it on voice) but that's not the point. Britney should probably use her own name, besides it would get her more credit for what she does. Plus, while I think they're both being a little childish, I agree with Christina. What's the big deal anyway, if she didn't want to use the song? It's her choice. The media is being ridiculous as it is...it could just be the same thing Gina mentioned. For such a long time they were considered nearly the same person, when they are totally different. Maybe she just doesn't want that to happen again, now that they've finally gotten everyone to recognize that they've got completely different voices and personalities. Either way, I agree with Christina.

I agree with Christina's decision, if the article is even true. The media would focus so much on that, it's not worth it. Christina and Britney are each their own people, and having the song on the album would only give the media a reason to once again pretend they're not. I love Christina - her voice, her fire, her attitude. And I like Britney as well. I do not view Christina's decision as immature or an intended insult for Britney. To me, it's simply a smart, obvious business decision.

I agree that she should use her real name. it does show how childish christina is to be doing it. If the song got to number one then what would she say because i couldnt see her thanking britney for it.

I think christina is self centred if some one did that to her sge would be the first one to moan she should get over herself. britney should use her real name though

I think that christina is pathetic she should just keep the song and be happy with the fact that it was written for her. britney is better than her and im sure that the song is really good.
