You'll find it at <A HREF="http://www.allmusicstores.com/index.html">All Music Stores!</A> </h2> <P>Christina Aguilera's story is a Hollywood dream come true. The daughter of a father in the military and a violinist/pianist mother who toured Europe with the Youth Symphony Orchestra, this18-year-old has traveled the world, living for a time in Japan, Florida, Texas and New Jersey, before settling in Wexford, PA, a suburb of Pittsburgh.</P> <P>"I wanted to perform as long as I could remember" says the blonde, blue eyed high school senior. Christina first began performing in school talent shows. As an eight-year-old she appeared on the nationally syndicated "Star Search", at age ten she sang the National Anthem for the Pittsburgh Steelers and Penguins, and then, at age 12 landed a spot on the "New Mickey Mouse Club" appearing on the Orlando-based show along with several other future stars, including Britney Spears, J.C. and Justin of 'N Sync and the star of "Felicity," Keri Russell.</P> <P>After two years on the weekly Disney show, Christina traveled overseas to further hone her musical skills. She recorded a duet, "All I Wanna Do," with Japanese pop star Keizo Nakanishi, appeared in the video and toured in Japan. Later that year, the young show biz veteran almost caused a riot at the Golden Stag Festival in Transylvania, Romania when she waded into the crowd of 10,000 while performing her two-song set on a bill which included Sheryl Crow and Diana Ross.</P> <P>On her return to the States in early 1998, Christina was invited to audition to record, "Reflection," for the Disney animated film "Mulan." The studio's search for a powerful voice with a wide vocal range quickly ended. They needed someone "who could hit a high "E" above middle "C," according to Christina. At her manager's request, Christina cut a one take demo on her boombox in her living room singing to a karaoke tape of Whitney Houston's "I Wanna Run To You."</P> <P>The demo was FedExed to Disney - they loved it - and within 48 hours, the young girl with the unique mature voice was in a Los Angeles studio recording "Reflection". That very same week RCA Records signed her to a record contract. Mulan premiered in June, 1998 and "Reflection" turned into a Top 15 A/C single, with Christina performing it live on "CBS This Morning" and the "Donnie & Marie Show." "The song's theme -- the struggle to establish your identity - was something I could really relate to as a teenage girl myself," says Christina. The song also related well to critics, garnering a Golden Globe Nomination for best original song in a motion picture.</P> <P>On her debut album for RCA, Christina continues to define herself and showcase her special voice. From the sparkling upbeat dance-pop of the first single, "Genie In A Bottle," to the guitar driven, heartfelt fun of "What A Girl Wants", to the soulful gospel strains of "So Emotional" and the truly awe-inspiring ballad, "I Turn To You", Christina's powerful affecting voice intertwines the themes of finding your own identity with the uncertainties of growing up.</P> <P>"I was thrilled to work with so many great producers on this album," gushes Christina. Recent hitmakers Carl Sturken and Evan Rogers ['N Sync, Boyzone, Brand New Heavies] contribute a pair of tracks - the pop-soul "Love For All Seasons" and the rousing dance-floor smash "Love Will Find A Way." "Genie In A Bottle" was produced by ex-System member David Frank and Steve Kipner.</P> <P>The uncomplicated, heartfelt "Blessed" was penned and produced by Travon Potts [co-writer of Monica's chart topping "Angel of Mine"]. Christina is especially proud of her ballads, including the Matthew Wilder [No Doubt] produced "Reflection" and the spine-tingling Diane Warren ballad "I Turn To You", produced by Guy Roche [Brandy, Dru Hill, Aaliya, K-Ci & Jo Jo]. Her soaring uptempos and thrilling ballads serve as ample proof that Christina is not just a new kid on the block, but a prime candidate for the Voice of her generation. This debut album marks another huge step for Christina down the road of commercial and critical success.</P> <P>With numerous television appearances to her credit, it is not surprising that Christina has recently been approached by a number of directors for roles in films going into production this summer. But, this blond beauty with dazzling blue eyes is going to wait a bit before pursuing more time in front of the camera. "Right now, I'm continuing to focus on my singing," says Christina, "I've been waiting for this moment my whole life."</P> <P>Welcome!

The nominations for the 42nd Annual Grammy Awards will be announced January 4.</P> <P>The announcements will be made at 8:15 a.m. at a press conference held at the Beverly Hills Hilton, with a host of artists helping out. On hand will be Christina Aguilera, Sarah McLachlan, Mary J. Blige, and Macy Gray, as well as Dallas Austin, Steven Curtis Chapman, Martina McBride, Carole Bayer Sager, Tom Scott, Thalia, and Diane Warren.</P> <P></P> <P>The awards ceremony itself will be held February 23 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles and will be broadcast live on CBS.</P> <P></P> <P>* "BILLBOARD ONLINE 12-28-99</P> <P></P> <P>DOUBLE DOWN: It's not unusual for an artist to have two solo singles in the top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100 chart, but it is rare for both songs to be moving up with bullets. Christina Aguilera repeats a feat accomplished by artists like Diana Ross, Linda Ronstadt, and Donna Summer, as Christina's version of "The Christmas Song" takes a seasonal leap from 44 to 18 on the Hot 100, while "What A Girl Wants" advances 13 to 11 on the Hot 100!</P> <P></P> <P>It's hard to believe, because so many people have recorded Mel Torme and Robert Wells' "The Christmas Song" over the years, but amazingly, Aguilera is only the second artist to have a Billboard Hot 100 hit with the holiday classic. The first, of course, was Nat King Cole, who last charted with "The Christmas Song" in 1962."</P> <P></P> <P>"The Christmas Song" marks Christina's third single to be in the top twenty over the last three months.</P> <P></P> <P></P> <P></P> <P></P> <P>* "What A Girl Wants" single release out now!</P> <P>Make Christina the first #1 hit of the millenium!</P> <P></P> <P>* The music video for 'What a Girl Wants'</P> <P>is a smash on MTV's 'Total Request Live'!</P> <P>It's directed by the great Diane Martel (she directed "Genie")</P> <P>and choreographed by Tina Landon (who has worked with</P> <P>Janet Jackson, among others).</P> <P></P> <P></P> <P>Vote for Christina on</P> <P>MTV's 'TRL'</P> <P></P> <P>Let's make her video #1!!</P> <P></P> <P></P> <P></P> <P></P> <P>* From MTV:</P> <P>Christina Aguilera To Play Milwaukee High School</P> <P></P> <P></P> <P>How far will people go to see Christina Aguilera?</P> <P></P> <P>Well, the students of Milwaukee's Franklin High School flooded an area radio station with more than 1.6 million index cards in a successful attempt to win a concert from the teen pop star. As a result, Aguilera will stop by Franklin High on Thursday afternoon to treat the student body to an exclusive show.</P> <P></P> <P>The show will mark the culmination of a contest launched early last month by Milwaukee's Kiss FM (WXSS) that gave 33 area schools a shot at Aguilera. In an attempt to boost school spirit, the radio station asked students to fill out index cards with their name, grade, and high school, with the school piling up the most cards at Kiss FM's door winning Christina for a day. During the three weeks that the station accepted submissions, some 9.5 million index cards came in, with Franklin's 1,642,200 cards coming out on top.</P> <P></P> <P>The cards are now in front of Kiss FM's offices filling two school buses from top to bottom. The station says that the cards will be recycled, with any proceeds going to charity.</P> <P></P> <P></P> <P></P> <P></P> <P>* Christina has prepared a special video gift for fans, and it's now available in stores just in time for the holidays!</P> <P></P> <P>Titled "Christina Aguilera: Genie Gets Her Wish," the 70-minute home video features her clips for "Genie In A Bottle" and "What A Girl Wants," as well as her rendition of Mel Torme's Yuletide classic, "The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire)."</P> <P></P> <P>The video also includes interviews with Christina from backstage, in the studio, and on the road.</P> <P></P> <P>"It will be interesting to see all the kinds of sides of me," Christina told the MTV Radio Network about the home video. "'Cause you do get to see me onstage, you know, 'Christina Aguilera onstage.'"</P> <P></P> <P>"But then, what happens whenever the cameras (are) off?" she continued. "She goes home, takes off her makeup, and gets ready for bed? You know, (what happens) after all these fans are done (with the show) and after she's done meeting them and signing autographs? What's she like?"</P> <P></P> <P>"I'm a really different person aside from I seem to be publicly," she concluded. "I'm very, very introverted."</P> <P></P> <P>Christina's "Genie Gets Her Wish" home video is now available everywhere!</P> <P></P> <P></P> <P></P> <P></P> <P>* After the holidays, the singer will head out on the road to open for TLC, beginning on January 7 in Anaheim, California.</P> <P></P> <P>Christina's dates with TLC for January</P> <P></P> <P>Friday, January 7 - Anaheim, CA - Arrowhead Pond</P> <P>Saturday, January 8 - Oakland, CA - Oakland Arena</P> <P>Monday, January 10 - Seattle, WA - Key Arena</P> <P>Tuesday, January 11 - Portland, OR - Rose Garden Arena</P> <P>Friday, January 14 - Chicago, IL - Allstate Arena</P> <P>Sunday, January 16 - Detroit, MI - Palace</P> <P>Tuesday, January 18 - Cleveland, OH - Convacation Center at CSU</P> <P>Thursday, January 20 - Boston, MA - Fleet Center</P> <P>Friday, January 21 - New York City - Madison Square Garden</P> <P>Sunday, January 23 - Washington, DC - MCI Center</P> <P>Tuesday, January 25 - Philadelphia, PA - First Union</P> <P>Thursday, January 27 - Ft.
