On Sunday (Nov. 19) night, Christina Aguilera performed a Whitney Houston tribute performance in celebration of the 25th anniversary of the late icon's classic film The Bodyguard.
Aguilera's onstage look was simple. She wore a black dress and had her platinum blonde hair pulled straight down to the back. While putting her all into her performance, The Voice judge began with “I Will Always Love You.” From there, Aguilera ventured off into “I Have Nothing,” “Run to You” and closed with “I’m Every Woman.”
Naturally, people on Twitter who watched the performance had some big opinions about it. While some viewers enjoyed Aguilera's tribute, others weren't fans of it at all. You can't win them all, Xtina!
Let's take a look at some of the best Twitter reactions to the singer's Whitney Houston tribute at the AMAs.

Y’all need to give Christina some credit. She performed songs that even Whitney struggled with, in front of her peers and even members of Whitney’s family. She did amazing and Whitney would’ve been proud, especially since Whitney LOVED Xtina.

Christina Aguilera did Whitney Houston justice. That performance was flawless. Once again she showed the world what a magnificent singer she is.

How is Christina Aguilera flat, sharp, off-key and growling on a Whitney Houston tribute. Brandy is not gonna be happy!
