Christina Aguilera Reimagines Her Biggest Hits With the LA Philharmonic at the Hollywood Bowl
She then delivered versions of her hits including “Ain’t No Other Man,” “What a Girl Wants,” “Fighter” and, of course, “Genie in a Bottle,” reimagined as compelling orchestral-pop crossovers with the help of both her band and the LA Phil led by Dudamel. Upon seeing the energy of an in-person crowd singing back to her for the first time in more than a year, Aguilera herself got misty eyed. “I hope I got all the tears out of the way,” she told the audience. “I’m a crier, so this morning when I came in for rehearsal, I just got to be a spectator for a moment as [the LA Phil] was rehearsing, and oh my God, this is a moment of a lifetime because my mother was a violinist […] I remember all these images of her pl...

‘Grease’ Prequel ‘Rise of the Pink Ladies’ Coming to Paramount+
Stockard Channing, Didi Conn, Dinah Manoff and Jamie Donnelly played the Pink Ladies in the 1978 feature film version of Grease.
