Edit this biography
On February 12, 2007, Christina Aguilera once again stood at the Gray Midea held up her "Best Female Pop Singer" trophy on the podium. Her beautiful appearance and sexy behavior will make people who don't know her mistakenly think that she is just a beautiful Barbie with only appearance. However, in fact, Christina Aguilera is much better than they imagined. Christina Aguilera's voice spans four octaves, and her unique talent has made her gradually grow into the world's most popular singing queen with both strength and idol. This woman is destined to be a wonder in the world of pop music!
However, such a famous female singer had an unhappy childhood. Christina's military father had a violent temper and beat and scolded her mother, Shelly Kearns, at every turn. Christina herself often became a tool for her father to vent his anger. Although her father abandoned the mother and daughter soon after, her mother's scars and tears had already left an indelible shadow on the young Christina's mind. But Christina did not give up on herself and blame others. Instead, she grew into a positive, optimistic and generous girl. It was at this time that, influenced by her grandmother, Christina became obsessed with old-time jazz and soul music. She often went to the video store near her home with her grandmother to buy old records by famous jazz singers who were popular in the last century. Perhaps it is with music that little Christina can forget the pain and unhappiness and plunge into her own music world.
Soon Christina began to show off her innate musical talent. Christina has participated in a series of singing competitions since she was 8 years old. At the age of 10, Christina sang the American national anthem for the Steelers and Pirates Club in Pittsburgh. From the age of 12 to 14, she was the most attractive girl in the Mickey Mouse Club. In 1998, Disney produced the cartoon "Mulan", which reflects the story of the ancient Chinese classic character Hua Mulan. The choice of singer for the theme song is still pending. The company found Christina Aguilera, who was the best singer in the Mickey Mouse Club at the time. Christina sang Whitney Houston's famous song "Run to you" a cappella in front of her manager. The manager was immediately impressed by the voice of this 18-year-old girl. Within two days, Christina recorded this classic "Reflection". It is worth mentioning that this song was also nominated for the "Best Original Song for a Movie" at the Golden Globe Award the following year. After that, a series of TV performances made more people know this little girl with a rich and high-pitched voice.
Christina Aguilera-----This now famous name was almost tampered with by the record company. Just before Christina's first album was released, company executives thought that the surname "Aguilera" was too difficult to pronounce and suggested that Christina change it to a more common surname. However, this suggestion was rejected by Christina because she had always been concerned about her Latin origin. Feeling proud, such a proposal is undoubtedly insulting and disrespectful to oneself.
Christina's stubborn and unyielding personality is also an essential factor in her future success.
In 1999, Christina's first hit single "Genie in a bottle" topped the Billboard singles chart for 6 weeks, and the album of the same name "Christina Aguilera" released immediately afterwards also went smoothly. Took the number one spot on the album chart. What’s even more incredible is that this debut album produced 3 No. 1 singles on the Billboard singles chart, including the previous “Genie in a bottle”. This record was only reached by Mariah Carey in 1990. It was done on their debut album in 2016.
"Christina Aguilera" made a lot of money. Not only did it have gratifying commercial results, Christina also won the "Best New Artist Award" at the 2000 Grammy Music Awards for this album, beating out Britney Spears. , Macy Gray, Kid Rock and others, including many award-winning favorites, it was at this time that Christina seemed to have an indissoluble bond with the Grammy. However, this album is really unsatisfactory in terms of music quality. The pop style throughout the album has prevented Christina's good voice from being fully utilized. However, even so, Christina's light has not been completely obscured. For example, in the album full of R&B flavor In "So Emotional", Christina's flexible voice and control of rhythm are amazing; in the lyrical song "I turn to you" about the relationship between mother and daughter, produced by the famous female songwriter Diane Warren, Christina She showed the demeanor of a powerful singer, whether singing lowly or loudly, Christina performed all the songs smoothly. In fact, Christina's original intention was to make an album with a more R&B and soul flavor, but the final product was too pop-oriented, which can't but be said to be a pity. But this is not Christina's responsibility. Record companies have always aimed at commercial profit, especially for a newcomer. So in the subsequent development, Christina began to work hard to break people's inherent thinking of "pretty girls can only look, not sing", and she began to do her best to show off her good voice. In the following series of North American tour concerts, Christina tried to show her jazz and soul taste to the audience, but ironically, a large part of the audience in the audience were 14- and 15-year-old Teen People, and they did not like it. Listening to this, they just came to see Christina, a young and beautiful girl, singing and dancing. So Christina felt disappointed. She didn't want to be a Teen Pop idol from the bottom of her heart. She wanted to be a real musician and artist. On the other hand, the continuous crazy tours and promotional activities have made this young girl who has just turned 20 feel unprecedented pressure. She needed someone to talk to, a shoulder to rely on, but her mother could not always accompany her. At this time, a boy with the same Latin origin as herself appeared. He was Jorge Santos, a backup dancer for Christina. So a relationship began, and Christina took Jorge to various events and award ceremonies. Like all girls in love, Christina had great hopes for this first love. She hoped that they could love each other forever. However, this relationship is like a gender-reversed version of Cinderella and the prince - Christina is a popular female singer that attracts global attention, while Jorge is just an ordinary backup dancer with no sparkle. One can imagine the pressure on Jorge's heart. In the end, Jorge betrayed Christina, and the relationship ended after two years.
In early 2000, the record company used Christina's Latin origin to produce an all-Spanish album "Mi Reflejo". Obviously, the music quality of the songs in this album is better than the first one. The album is much higher, and it can be vaguely imagined that Christina has more decision-making power in the development of her career. The album became the most popular Latin album in the United States in 2000, ranking second on the 2000 Billboard Latin Album Year-End Sales Chart. Christina can always be seen at the major Latin music awards in 2001. After winning the "Best Latin Pop Female Vocal Album" award at the second Latin Grammy Music Awards, Christina also won her first World Music Award for "Best-Selling Latin Female Vocalist". At the end of 2000, Christina released a Christmas album "My kind of Christmas". In this album, Christina sang jazz and soul-style old songs. However, in the end, it did not receive many good reviews from music critics. People seem to think, "Can a 20-year-old girl perform a true soul-style song well?" But is this album really that bad? Although the singing in this album has some ostentatious elements, there is no doubt about Christina's near-perfect singing skills. She performed jazz and soul songs at the age of only 20. She should not be ridiculed, but should be praised more. Praise and encouragement are the way to go.
Even without the release of a new album, Christina Aguilera was still very popular in 2001. In addition to the frequent awards mentioned earlier, several hit songs she collaborated with other singers also kept her on the charts. Prominent positions include "Nobody wants to be lonely" with Latin king Ricky Martin, and "Lady Marmalade" with Pink, Lil'kim and Mya as the soundtrack to the hit movie "Moulin Rouge". "Lady Marmalade" can be said to be a milestone for Christina to officially move towards a sexy and alternative route. In the song's MV, Christina wears a fishnet outfit and a sexy corset with an afro, which is different from the pure and cute "little girl" she has maintained for two years. The image of Elf completely says Goodbye. This song topped the Billboard singles chart for 4 consecutive weeks, becoming Christina's 4th Billboard number one single. Although people were not used to Christina's new look, this powerful song still topped charts around the world and became the most popular single worldwide in 2001! Christina appeared again at the 2002 Grammy Awards, because "Nobody wants to be lonely" and "Lady Marmalade" were nominated for the "Best Pop Collaboration Award" at the same time, more than other singers nominated for this category. Christina, who had a 20% higher chance of winning, definitely won the grand prize. At the award ceremony that night, Christina, Pink, Lil' Kim, Mya and the original singer of this classic song - veteran soul female singer Patti LaBelle jointly performed this masterpiece, because before this performance Christina hadn't appeared in public for a while, so when she stepped out from behind the curtain with her signature rich voice, the whole place was almost in an uproar.
From this period of time, Christina began to embark on the road of rebellion. Tattoos, piercings, revealing clothes, Christina had everything a rebellious youth should have. Why is she doing this? There is only one purpose, to let people in the world change their view of themselves and understand their true selves. Christina was fed up with her life at the mercy of record companies, and she wanted to take control of her music career with her own hands. Christina's mother Shelly has always respected and supported her daughter's decision, and often works as a messenger on Christina's official website to reply to fans' letters. It was at this time that another man appeared in Christina's life.
This man was also Jordan Bratman, who would become Christina's beloved husband. Jordan is the record producer of Christina's record company. The two were introduced by a friend while working in Japan.
In October 2002, Christina released the album
Before making such a classic album, Christina had a long conversation with Ron Fair, the gold medal producer who produced her previous albums. When Christina stated that she was going to make such a record, After making up his mind, Ron was so angry that he thought Christina was crazy. But when Christina said, "Even if I only sell two records, I won't regret it, as long as you let me make the music I like." Ron was moved by the stubborn and cute girl in front of him. As a result, Christina participated in the creation of almost all the songs in the album and acted as a producer for the first time. The music quality and production sincerity of the album are surprising. It is full of 20 songs, including rock, Latin, R&B, Hip-Hop, It has a variety of rich music styles such as soul, and the lyrics are full of connotation and philosophy, coherent, passionate, and without any interruptions. However, in the eyes of the Grammy judges, an album with a unified style is a truly good album. Therefore, at the 2004 Grammy Music Awards, Christina lost to Justin Timberlake in the "Best Pop Album" award. But Christina undisputedly won the award for "Best Female Pop Singer" with "Beautiful", a classic single from the album. The tour market in 2003 was dominated by Christina and her old friend Justin Timberlake. Their Justified & Stripped world tour created a craze wherever they went, with almost every venue sold out.
Christina's live performance ability also rose to a higher level at this time, and the people who went to watch her performances were not limited to Teen People. There were more and more people who liked Christina, including men, women, heterosexuals and homosexuals. , black, white, and yellow people~~~~~Christina has won a piece of the sky for herself!
After the release of "Stripped" caused a stir, Christina once again became the talk of the town, but this time it was because of Christina's rapidly out-of-shape figure. During the "Stripped" tour, Christina often hung out in various famous nightclubs and drank too much. Christina said in an interview: "I know that my current figure has disappointed many people, but I will not apologize. I am not America's sweetheart!" Fortunately, this period of decadent life only lasted a short time. .
After a period of adjustment and rest, Christina continued her hard work and hard work. However, at this time, Christina began to change again. During the "Stripped" period, her hair that was dyed black returned to its original platinum color, and her fat figure returned to a curvy and exquisite figure. She has short curly blond hair, a beauty mark on the corner of her mouth, and makes provocative movements and expressions from time to time. Who is this? You guessed it right, Marilyn Monroe! During this period, Christina seemed to be possessed by Marilyn Monroe. She looked as charming as Monroe wherever she went. The once rebellious and perverse "Dirrty Girl" has disappeared, and now what appears in front of people's eyes is a noble and charming retro beauty. Christina has also continued to use this image in the singles "Carwash" and "Tilt ya head back" MVs released successively with two Hip-Hop superstars Missy Elliot and Nelly respectively.
What exactly is Christina going to do next? It turns out that after the "Stripped" tour in 2004, Christina began to listen to various soul records to educate herself. She learned a lot from Etta James, Billie Holliday and other once-popular jazz celebrities. After collecting enough records of soul jazz singers, Christina carefully wrote memos for each song, recording her feelings when listening to each song, and accumulating material for the next album. During this period, Christina and her boyfriend Jordan Bratman, who had been in love for three years, got married, proving her devout beliefs and orthodox life style with facts. The "Dirrty Girl" back then was actually just an artistic image, mature , thoughtful, is the real Christina Aguilera.
On August 15, 2006, Christina’s third English studio album "Back to basics" was released. The album topped the sales charts in more than 20 countries around the world, which also made her She became the only female singer after Madonna to top the album charts in the United States, Britain and Australia at the same time. Christina, who has been influenced by jazz and soul music since she was a child, has used all she has learned in her life to pour out her unique insights into jazz and soul, and unreservedly displayed them in this album. Delicacy and sincerity are the hallmarks of this album. Features, return to nature music is undoubtedly a big surprise to today's frivolous record market. The tone of the songs in the album has also changed a lot, from "Ain't no other man", which praises loyal love, to "Candyman", which expresses simple happiness. Christina's singing is no longer angry and radical. In the performance of lyrical songs, It is also more gorgeous and deep, full of heartfelt gratitude and happiness. With a massive 22 tracks, unusual pop tastes, and a double-disc package, this is not something an ordinary pop singer dares to do, because if you are not careful, your business will be completely ruined.
However, Christina did a great job. Although there is a big gap between the sales of this album and the previous two, looking at the sluggish record sales market in recent years, an album is nearly twice as expensive as an ordinary single-disc record and is sold It is not a retro-style album that is easy for the public to accept, but it is quite an achievement to sell 4.5 million copies worldwide in one year. What's more, Christina also won unanimous praise from professional music critics with this album. In February 2007, Christina stood on the Grammy podium for the fourth time and once again won the award of "Best Female Pop Vocalist". That night at The performance at the awards ceremony was the most shocking since Christina's debut. At the request of the Grammy organizers, Christina sang "It's a man's world" in tribute to the late soul singer James Brown. There was no fancy lighting or stage design. Christina just used all her strength to act like the clamoring Roaring and screaming like a lifelong singer. After the performance, the audience and celebrities from all walks of life all stood up and applauded, making this wonderful performance worthy of being written into the annals of history. In addition, the "Back to basics" world tour, which started in November 2006, has also achieved remarkable results with 80 consecutive performances. The total box office performance of 55 of them ranked second in the world tour box office list in the first half of 2007.
However, while Christina was on her own tour in full swing, there was a little life in her belly that was just about to move. Christina is pregnant! Despite suffering from pregnancy and a severe cold, Christina still insisted on holding concerts, and her professionalism was admirable. However, due to lack of physical strength, the last three concerts were canceled. Because compared to the concert, the child in the belly is obviously more important!
Now Christina is living a sweet and happy life with her husband, looking forward to the arrival of a new member of the family. Musically, Christina seems to have found her way to soul. After she performed the shocking "It's a man's world" at the 2007 Grammy Awards, she began to be called "soul music" by the media. mother". Such a title seems a bit unbearable for a 27-year-old female singer, but it just shows that Christina's transformation is successful and brilliant. There is no doubt about Christina Aguilera's sincerity in music, and in life. , she has always maintained a style of staying out of the mud. The sluggish and luxurious atmosphere of Hollywood will not affect her. Keeping herself clean is the principle she pursues.
Christina’s singing career in the past nine years seems to have gone smoothly, but in fact it was mostly achieved through her own hard work. As early as the beginning of 1999, Britney Spears, who was also a member of the Mickey Mouse Club like Christina, released her first solo album. The "Britney Spears trend" swept the entire earth, and Christina who appeared shortly afterwards was artificially detained. She has been labeled as "Britney's second best", but anyone with a discerning eye can see and hear that Christina is better at singing. One can imagine the depression and pain in Christina's heart. As a result, she gradually transformed, and gradually drew a clear line with Britney Spears' idol route. She has also been sexy and wild, but in the end she returned to the most original essence of music, walking steadily and steadily step by step. She is a smart woman, she also likes a leisure life and loves to have fun, but once it is time to make music seriously, she will calm down and focus on her album.
In early 2007, Christina Aguilera's name appeared on the list of stars to be named on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2008. She also revealed that her next album will be "Short and Sweet". She also said that she has read a lot of scripts and is considering acting in a movie. Christina's next move is exciting because this woman always brings surprises.
Let us wait and see what exciting things will happen in her gorgeous life!
Edit this paragraph to see the current Christina
She has a sweet love and a successful career. She and her husband Jordan already have a boy, and their total album sales exceed 37 million. The latest album is B2B (Back to Basics).
