Watch Christina Aguilera's Moving Tribute of Whitney Houston at the AMAs

Christina Aguilera performs classics by Whitney Houston for the 25th anniversary of 'The Bodyguard.'

One of the many anticipated performers during tonight’s American Music Awards was Christina Aguilera. She was set to honor the late Whitey Houston and the 25th anniversary of The Bodyguard, and safe to say she met everyone’s expectations.

Viola Davis opened with a few words about Houston’s legacy and The Bodyguard. “The American Music Awards was many ways her home. Whitney received 21 AMAs, the most of any female artist in history,” she said.

Aguilera’s performance was a medley of classics. She went through “I Will Always Love You, “I Have Nothing,” “Run to You,” “I’m Your Baby Tonight,” and “I’m Every Woman.”

While the reactions were mixed (it just reaffirms how much everyone misses Whitney’s voice), Aguilera still put on an impressive performance.

You can watch the full performance above.
