Christina Aguilera Biography
Christina Aguilera is considered by some to be the voice of the generation and the diva of the stage, while others refuse to occupy the first rows in the auditorium, fearing to go deaf. For some, the singer’s possession of the vocal apparatus evokes professional delight, while for others, bewilderment and pity. Colleagues Celine Dion and Axl Rose call Aguilera one of the best vocalists of our time. In any case, no one is indifferent.
Childhood and youth
Christina Aguilera was born in the southernmost part of New York, in Staten Island. Her father Fausto Xavier Aguilera, an emigrant from Ecuador, was a professional military man. Shelley’s mother Lorraine Fiedler is a former violinist and pianist, a member of the US Youth Symphony Orchestra, at the time of the birth of her eldest daughter, she had already stopped her stage career and became a Spanish teacher at school. Christina has a 6-year-old younger sister, Rachel.
Little Christina’s childhood cannot be called carefree, primarily because her father was very authoritarian and suppressed both his wife and children with his despotism. A year after the birth of her youngest daughter, Shelley takes the girls, moves to Pennsylvania to live with her mother, and files for divorce.
Musical talent, apparently, went to Christina on the maternal side. She very early began to show herself as a gifted singer. The creative biography of the artist began in elementary school.
At the age of 8, Aguilera took 2nd place in the children’s talent competition “Star Search”, performing a fairly complex composition by Whitney Houston “The Greatest Love of All”. The next notable success was the performance of the national American anthem at the opening of the sports games in Pittsburgh. At that time, Christina was 11 years old. A year later, the famous American TV show “The Mickey Mouse Club” starts, and young Aguilera becomes one of the participants in the project, along with such future stars
he heavy workload and busyness on the show led to Aguilera in the 8th grade deciding to drop out of secondary school and focus on her own career. The freed up time systematically leads to an increase in the number of projects in which an aspiring singer participates. Christina performs in Japan and Romania, records the song “Reflection” for the Disney cartoon “Mulan”. The soundtrack was so successful that it was nominated for a Golden Globe and earned Aguilera her first professional contract with RCA Records.
