Christina Aguilera

I did this picture from the musical Bourlesque...
Christina María Aguilera (born December 18, 1980) is an American singer-songwriter, television personality, and actress. Born in Staten Island, New York, she appeared in television shows as a child before signing with RCA Records in 1998. Her debut studio album Christina Aguilera (1999) became an international success, with singles "Genie in a Bottle", "What a Girl Wants", and "Come On Over Baby (All I Want Is You)" all topping the Billiboard hot 100. Despite commercial success with her second and third albums Mi Reflejo (2000) and My Kind Of Christmas (2000) and numerous collaborations, Aguilera was displeased with her lack of input in her music and image. She parted ways with her management and assumed creative control for her fourth album Stripped (2002); its second single "Beautiful" helped the album's commercial performance amidst controversy over her image. While Aguilera's jazz, soul and blues-inspired fifth album Back To Basics (2006) was met with positive critical and commercial feedback, her sixth album Bionic (2010) had trouble maintaining commercial success. Later that year, she made her feature film debut in the musical Bourlesque which was released to mixed reviews. Aguilera served as the soundtrack's executive producer earning positive reviews and substantial sales. Aguilera's seventh album Lotus (2012) garnered mixed reviews and poor sales. She served as a coach and judge for the first three seasons of The Voice from 2011 through 2012.
