Christina Aguilera is extending support for former music rival Britney Spears.
Speaking to The Enrique Santos Show on Friday, the singer admitted that she has great respect for Spears.
"I never want to talk openly about someone for whom I have so much respect and admiration."
"I couldn't be happier for her, every woman deserves to feel empowered and to be herself however they see fit," she continued.
Aguilera understood where the 40-year-old pop star comes from, looking at her similar travels.
"And yes, growing up in this business can be crazy," she shared. "You know, if anyone gets it and understands what it means to come at that time, it will definitely be him and me. I'll always be here. I love, you know, that way To be able to connect with other women ... It's so important, now more than ever, that we now have the ability to connect, that happens, and that we always feel integrated."
Earlier, Aquilera also praised Brittany for her courage and zest for life.
"For the past few days I've been thinking about Britney and everything she's going through," Aguilera wrote in a post she shared on her social media. "It is unacceptable that any woman, or human, who wants to be in control of her own destiny, cannot be allowed to live the life she wants. To be silenced, ignored, bullied or threatened by those 'close' to you." Denial of support is the worst, disastrous and degrading thing imaginable."
Aguilera said, “The harmful mental and emotional damage it can inflict on the human soul is not to be taken lightly. Every woman has the right to her own body, her own reproductive system, her own privacy, her own space and her own right. Should be happy."
