Christina Aguilera recently admitted that she was abused by her father at a young age.
Aguilera, who is now estranged from her father, says that the abuse inspired her to use music as an outlet for her pain.
“I witnessed a lot of unpleasant things – a lot of pushing and shoving and fighting and quarreling. Growing up I did not feel safe. Feeling powerless is the worst feeling in the world. I turned to singing as an outlet. The pain at home is where my love for music came from.”
Her father, an ex-U.S. Army Sargeant, has since tried to make amends but the pop star says she is not interested in reconnecting with him. “I let him back into my life briefly but I soon realised that he is not necessary in my life.”
Aguilera claims that her father terrorized her, her mother Shelly and sister Rachel, during the time that her parents were together.
Shelly says that she once found Christina with a bloody chin. “I scooped her up and said, ‘Oh my God. What’s wrong?’ She told me, ‘Daddy wanted to take a nap and I made too much noise.’” She eventually left him.
I know Christina and her mother are extremely close and I’m sure the abuse made their relationship stronger. Sorry about your luck, daddy. Who knew she would grow up to be a millonaire superstar? Karma is such a bitch. Heh.
Stumble it!
