Pop diva Christina Aguilera is known for her big voice, over-the-top wardrobe
and pop hits like “Genie in a Bottle” and “Fighter,” but the superstar
earned her status as a gay icon for advocating for LGBTQ equality and
representation over the course of her career.
流行天后 Christina Aguilera 以宏亮的歌声、夸张的穿着和例如
「Genie in a Bottle」、「Fighter」等金曲出名,但这位超级巨星还在他的职业生涯中
倡议 LGBTQ 平权,赢得了同志偶像的地位。
In her Love Letter to the LGBTQ Community for Billboard, Christina called her
LGBTQ fans her fighters, heroes and the reason she loves what she does.
“The LGBTQ community has never had it easy,” she wrote. “The struggles each
one of you faces daily on an individual level and on a broader political and
cultural level are unimaginable, yet you keep fighting, you keep moving forward
trailblazing and beating all odds with love always in your hearts.”
在他写给 LGBTQ 社群的一封信中,Christina 称他的 LGBTQ 粉丝们斗士、英雄
和他爱他的工作的原因。「身为LGBTQ的一员从来就不容易」他说「你们每一位每天面对
各种小至个人大至政治文化层面的不同困难令人难以想像,但是你们始终以充满内心的
爱,不断地战斗不断的向前,开疆辟土并克服万难。」
Here are five times Xtina has lived out those values:
来看看五个 Xtina 以行动验证这些价值的时刻
She reminded us that we’re beautiful
In 2002, Christina dedicated her single “Beautiful” to the LGBTQ community,
and the Jonas Åkerlund-directed music video earned Xtina a GLAAD Media Award
for its positive portrayal of gay and transgender people.
In her acceptance speech, Christina dedicated the song to “anyone who’s been
discriminated against or unaccepted, unappreciated or disrespected just because
of who [they] are." In 2011, U.K. LGBT rights organization Stonewall named
"Beautiful" the most empowering song of the previous decade for gay, lesbian
and bisexual people.

他提醒我们我们是美丽的
2002 年 Christina 将他的单曲「Beautiful」献给了 LGBTQ 社群
这部由Jonas Åkerlund 执导,正面描绘同志和跨性别的音乐录影带也替 Christina
赢来了 GLAAD 媒体奖。
在他的领奖演说中,Christina 将这首歌献给「因为自己本质,而遭受到歧视、排斥
、轻视和不受尊重的任何人。」在 2011 年英国 LGBTQ 权利组织「石墙」将 Beautiful
命为十年间对男女同性恋及双性恋最有力量的歌曲。
She called out myths around HIV
In 2004, Christina lent her face to MAC Cosmetics for the 10th anniversary of
its MAC AIDS Fund, which has raised more than $500 million exclusively through
the sale of MAC’s VIVA Glam Lipstick and Lipglass donating all proceeds to
fight HIV/AIDS since it began in 1994. In an interview promoting the campaign,
Christina made it clear that HIV and AIDS don’t discriminate. “[People] think
it can't happen to them or that it only happens to a certain stereotype or
gender, but it [can affect] everyone's lives."
他唤起对 HIV 迷思的重视
2004 年,Christina 出面担任 MAC 化妆品旗下爱滋基金会的代言人,自从 1994 年开始
光是 MAC 的 VIVA Glam 唇膏和唇蜜就募集了超过五亿美元,并所有收益用於对抗
HIV/AIDS。在一次活动宣传的访问中,Christina 清楚的告诉大家 HIV/AIDS 并不会对人
有差别待遇。「(有些人)觉得 HIV/AIDS 只会感染某些人或性别,但事实上他会感染所有
人。」
She advocated for marriage equality
In 2008, Aguilera spoke out against Proposition 8, a ballot measure amending
California’s constitution to eliminate the right of same-sex couples to marry.
In an interview with MTV News, she said, “Why would you put so much money
behind something [aimed at] stopping people from loving each other? I just
don't understand it.”
她提倡婚姻平权
在2008年,Chritina 公开反对禁止同性伴侣结婚的加州八号提案。他在MTV的访问中表示
「我不懂为什麽会有人把这麽多钱,投入在阻止别人相爱上?我真的无法理解。」
She made this visual love letter for her fans as a response to the rise of
gay bullying and suicides
For the accompanying music video for her single “Let There Be Love,”
Christina chose to dedicate the dance track to her LGBTQ fans.

Christina enlists kids, dancers and entertainers, including Nicole Richie and
Christina Milian, to hold up signs with phrases and words like “no hate,”
“equality” and “amo mi hijo gay” (“I love my gay son”). The video sparked
a social movement, for which her fans sent her selfies making the letter “L”
with their hands to represent the concept for “love.”

热烈回响,他的粉丝们纷纷上传了用手指比出「L」,代表 Love 爱的自拍照给他。
She dedicated the song “Change” to Pulse victims and survivors
After the mass shooting at LGBTQ nightclub Pulse -- where 49 people,
mostly young, gay and Hispanic, lost their lives -- Christina dedicated the
song “Change” to the victims and survivors with proceeds going directly to
the victim’s families.
Additionally, Christina wrote a strongly worded note addressing the shooting on
her website encouraging everyone to embrace individuality and celebrate
diversity.
“The horrific tragedy that occurred in Orlando continues to weigh heavily on
my mind,” she wrote. “We all have the choice to spread love, encourage
individuality and make a difference to others -- we are all in this together,
as one, united in love.”

他将「Change」这首歌献给奥兰多夜店枪击案的生者和死者
在 LGBTQ 夜店「脉冲」,49 位以年轻人、同志和拉丁裔牺牲者为主的大规模枪击案後,
Christina 发行了单曲「Change」,并直接将收益捐献给罹难者家属。
除此之外,Christina 针对枪击案在他的官方网站上,发表了一则强而有力的谈话,
他鼓励大家拥抱每个人的特质,以及赞颂每个人的差异。
「我的心不断的为发生在奥兰多的悲剧而沈重着。」他说「我们可以选择散播爱、鼓舞
他人和改变别人的生命,以爱之名,我与你们同在。」
Well said and well done, Christina.
