"I have so much admiration and so much respect and love for someone who truly has been a fighter in so many different ways," said Aguilera, who received the Muhammad Ali Humanitarian of the Year Award.

Aguilera was recognized for her role as an anti-hunger ambassador for the United Nations World Food Programme. She also has been a global advocate for fast-food company Yum Brands Inc.'s World Hunger Relief campaign to raise awareness and money to end hunger.

"From my heart, it really means a lot to be recognized for what's most important to me, and that truly is to connect with people on a universal level and use my voice to try and help inspire others to then use theirs," she said after receiving her award.
