Justin Timberlake Edges Christina Aguilera In Toronto

Ben Rayner of the Toronto Star reviewed the ‘Justina’ tour stop at the Air Canada Centre on Tuesday night (July 29). Rayner said of *NSYNC star Justin Timberlake, “Timberlake compensates ably for his so-so falsetto and nondescript r’n'b-lite material like ‘Senorita’ and ‘Like I Love You’ with some serious moves.” He added that “Aguilera’s the real singer of the two” but “most times, unfortunately, the slightly stiff and uncomfortable-looking Aguilera was swallowed up by an extravagantly pretentious production that had her poppin’ wheelies on a motorcycle, writhing against a chain-link fence, clambering up and down a mid-stage jungle gym with her dancers and, in the most gauche segment, emerging from the shadows crucified on a giant steel ‘X’.”
