Concertgoers 'went crazy' when Hillary and Bill Clinton walked into Christina Aguilera concert
‘What a Girl Wants” is a photo op with Hillary and Bill Clinton backstage at her show.
Christina Aguilera‘s “The Liberation” tour stopped at Radio City Music Hall in New York City on Wednesday night, and the Clintons took advantage of the opportunity for a date night. While Broadway shows tend to be more their speed, they were all in for a night with the “Ain’t No Other Man” songstress, whose show isn’t always rated G.

Though the Clintons were in the house, Aguilera didn’t tone down her performance, crooning “Dirrty” — and some of her other racy hits — and doing burlesque for the sold-out crowd, to the delight (and sometimes amusement) of concertgoers.
It's very important to keep in mind that the Christina Aguilera tour that Hillary Clinton just attended has "Dirrty" on the setlist.

Hillary Clinton is in the audience for Christina Aguilera, so yes, I can cross “dancing to Dirrty with a Secretary of State” off my bucket list. #LiberationTour

I cant believe Christina Aguilera sang Dirrty, Woohoo, Accelerate, sang the words “so I say some fucked up shit just to hurt you”, performed a Burlesque choregraphy, did slutdrops and bounced her boobs, ALL OF THAT right in front of Hilary and Bill Clinton. She’s too powerful.

She also brought out special guest Lil’ Kim for a rendition of their hit “Lady Marmalade.”
I can’t believe Hillary Clinton and I just watched Christina Aguilera perform “Lady Marmalade” with Lil Kim

And there was a gay marriage proposal.
Tonight’s Christina Aguilera concert was the future that liberals wanted: an intercultural gay marriage proposal, a beautiful Latina trans icon, Bill and Hillary Clinton & Lil’ Kim! Thank you, @xtina, for a wonderful GAY evening! ✨🏳️🌈🦄✨ #LiberationTour pic.twitter.com/npRmMIKVc8

But people were just happy to see the Clintons in general. There was applause for the political pair — and a standing ovation. (Not bad for two people who didn’t even take the stage.)
The Clintons just walked into the Christina Aguilera show at Radio City. Everyone went crazy. The gay agenda is complete.

Bill & Hillary Clinton just walked into the Christina Aguilera concert & got a standing ovation so I can only assume this means she’s gonna being Hillary onstage to sing P!nk’s verse on “Lady Marmalade.”

Posing for photos backstage, Aguilera stood out in red — there were ruffles and ruching — while the 2016 presidential candidate wore all black, and the two-time former president had a sports coat and khaki slacks.
Aguilera was a Hillary supporter when she ran against Trump, performing at a benefit concert called Hillary Clinton: She’s With Us in June 2016. She also hosted a fundraiser for Hillary at her California home in 2015, calling the former secretary of state “a tireless advocate for everyday Americans and their families.”
Hillary Clinton and Aguilera had previously gotten to know each other at the 2012 McGovern Awards, where the singer was honored for her work as a U.N. World Food Programme Ambassador.
