Referring to her appearance on Star Search in 1990 when Sabrina was 10 years old, the latter told So Emotional singer, “I think the first time I ever heard your voice was [when] my mom played me a video of you singing at eight years old, ‘A Sunday Kind of Love’.”
During the appearance, Aguilera performed a rendition of Etta James’ fan-favourite songs. Sabrina added, “That was the most inspiring thing for me ever to see as a young girl that wanted to sing but just didn’t think I could do it at that age,” as reported by People.
Aguilera looked proudly at the Please singer while she performed the rendition of the former’s What a Girl Wants before she picked up her mic to sing the second verse. According to a recent interview of Moves Like Jagger with Rolling Stone, the 25th celebration of her debut album is a way to “together the past and present”.
