Christina Aguilera was born in Wexford, Pennsylvania, but is Half Hispanic, and Half American-Irish. Her heroes include Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston and Michael Jackson. She is 19 years old, and when in school, her favourite subjects were Science and English. She wanted to work in a drive-thru like McDonald's because she thought it was cool, but she changed her mind, luckily for us! She started work, on the 'Mickey Mouse Club', the same place as Britney Spears! They were the youngest two and they bonded well ('When '…Baby…' came out I voted for it on MTV TRL and bought the single to help her along. Then she blew up and I thought "She doesn't really need my help anymore!", but I really love her 'Rolling Stone' Magazine shoot photos, she looks gorgeous!' said Christina Aguilera on the subject of Britney). She has had a Japanese number 1 single, after recording a single with a big Japanese star. But her big break came, when she was asked to record a song for the Walt Disney motion picture 'Mulan'. The song was 'Reflection' and is included on her US #1 album 'Christina Aguilera' along with the 'Mulan' soundtrack
. She got a record deal at the age of
18, and recorded her album, and released a single 'Genie In A Bottle'. In the US, on its release, it went straight to #1, for 5 weeks and is the biggest selling single by a female artist, since Celine Dion's 'My Heart Will Go On' taken from the 'Titanic' motion picture soundtrack! Her album also went to #1, after it was released on August 24th! In the UK, the single went to #1, after it's official release on October 4th. Her album, however, did not fare so well, not making it into the UK #20, after its release on October 18th. Hopefully, in the year 2000, with the release of 'What A Girl Wants' as a single, the album will make it into the UK #10 albums! You can hear the album songs in the 'Sounds' Section - If you like them, BUY THE ALBUM!!
