Christina Aguilera Timeline

After flirting with success as a child star - Aguilera appeared on "The Mickey Mouse Club" in 1993 and 1994 - she became a full-blown star in 1999 with the release of the single "Genie in a Bottle," which hit #1 on Billboard's Hot 100 in July 1999.

2002

Since her debut album appeared in 1999, Aguilera had been shifting her persona from teen pop star to full-fledged adult. That transition became complete with the release of her fourth album, "Stripped," in late 2002. The lead single, "Dirrty," featured lyrics such as "I need that to get me off/ Sweat until my clothes come off."

Though the single "Dirrty" didn't burn up the charts the way its predecessors had, its follow-up "Beautiful" did. The song reached #2 on Billboard's Hot 100 and earned Aguilera a Grammy for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance.

In 2006, Aguilera emerged with a new image and a new sound. She called her album "Back to Basics" a "throwback to the 1920s, '30s and '40s."

2010

"Bionic," Aguilera's first full-length album since "Back to Basics," was released in June 2010. It debuted at #3 on the Billboard 200 but quickly fell down the charts and has been a poor seller. As of November 2010, it had sold 250,000 copies. "Entertainment Weekly" named it the fifth worst album of 2010.

2011

So far 2011 hasn't been much better for Aguilera than 2010.

While performing the National Anthem at Super Bowl XLV in February, instead of singing the song's fourth line with the correct words - "O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?" - Aguilera sang, "What so proudly we watched at the twilight's last gleaming?"
