This video reflected the "Ain't No Other Man" singer's passion for music alongside her determination to succeed. However, the pop culture icon was not the star of her throwback post.

One male devotee described the songstress as "legendtina," revealing he had followed Aguilera's amazing growth from her 1999 hit song, "Genie in a bottle." A second male follower declared he would forever remain in the idol's corner, while celebrity makeup artist, Michael Anthony, wrote a short rhyme for the entertainer that read:

"You got soul, you got class, you got style with you're a bad ass !! You're a gift to us ALL, mama." 

A fourth fan expressed his desire for the MX Productions founder to return to her origin. This individual claimed that people missed the "Candyman" singer's "baby Jane" phase and jazz sound. The surge of love for the "Voice of a Generation" title-holder did not stop there, as a few social media users noted they have been following the singer since the 90s.
