This video also features Nelly Furtado, Chris Brown, Nicole Scherzinger, Natasha Bedingfield & Danny Ray.

Aguilera's Preformance recieved a standing ovation and the most praise of the night. With high praise for her pipes, Grammy.com said her performance was nothing less than; "Legendary".
In tribute to the Grammy Awards 50th anniversary, CBS.com and Grammy.com asked viewers to vote on their favorite performances at the Grammy's of All Time; It's A Man's World was voted 3rd best Grammy performance ever.

MSN.com wrote;
"The show-stealer: Christina Aguilera laying waste to James Brown's "It's a Man's World," at the end of a medley that also included Smokey Robinson singing "Tracks of My Tears" AND Lionel Richie singing "Hello." A vision in white, spilling out of her vest, pouring every last drop of oxygen she had into this tribute to the late Godfather, Aguilera was so powerful that it didn't matter if she'd ever heard of James Brown before. There was a lot of earnest tribute made to Brown all night, but Christina was better than earnest. She was great".
USAToday wrote;
"Most of the performances were surprisingly strong, the best of which was Christina Aguilera's take on James Brown's "It's a Man's World" Pouring every ounce of emotion she had into the mic, Aguilera's time on the stage might just go down in Grammy history as one of the best ever".

  • @millel1986 she was 'screaming' because if you've ever seen James Brown perform that's what he always did. It was her tribute to him not just because she felt like screaming lol

  • STANDING OVATION CHRISTINA YOU ARE ONE OF THE BEST!!!

  • Gladys Knight loved it herself and rated it as one of her all time top 5/4 favourite performances. You know you've killed it when comments from a legend mentions something like that.

  • I am a DIE HARD Britney fan, and I love to death, she's my world, she's all I listen to, I would give up everything in my room just to listen to her music, but... I don't know why people compare Brit to Xtina or the other way around as well. They're both great singers and entertainers, but NO ONE in the world will EVER have a Christina voice. She KILLED it. I have lots of respect for Xtina, and I will always acknowledge the fact that she has the best voice of the 2000 generation.

  • she killed it. incredible

  • @MrDjoyahs Good question!

  • Does Christina Actually love james brown or did she just do this to gain lots of respect from black people?
