| 1980-1996 Highlights from Lisa Degnen's book 'Christina Aguilera' - Oct 2000 | ....Christina has always known she wanted to be a star. Her Ecuadorian-born father, Fausto, and his Irish-American wife, Shelly, originally lived on New York City's Staten Island, where their first daughter, Christina, was born. Christina's dad was in the military, and her mom was a violinist and pianist who had toured Europe with a youth symphony orchestra in her teens. So adventure and performing in Christina's blood.
As a little girl, she was already the star of the family. She would surround herself with stuffed animals and they'd be her audience,? her mom says. The army sent Fausto to a... |

| 1997 Highlights from Lisa Degnen's book 'Christina Aguilera - Oct 2000 | | Christina traveled overseas to further hone her musical skills and establish herself as an international star. She recorded a duet, All I Wanna Do, with Japanese pop star Keizo Nakanishi, and she toured Asia and Europe. All over the world, Christina was a hit. When she waded into the crowd at the golden stag festival in Transylvania, Romania (the home of Dracula), to perform just two songs, she caused an year riot amazingly, Christina...who was fairly unknown at the time...got even more attention than her famous costars, Sheryl Crow and Diana Ross. And that was just the beginning.... |

| Christina Aguilera: "Come on Over Baby" - Oct 2000 |  How long can Ms Aguilera milk the genius of 'Genie In A Bottle'? Nothing she's released since has even come close to matching the beguilingly insidious smoulder of her first single, and this is no exception.
'Come on Over...' sounds like a filler track from a Whitney Houston album circa 1985, or like Mariah Carey before she discovered her "roots". To further the comparison, Aguilera seems to have been seized by a Carey-esque urge to show off her entire octave range in every song, however squealingly, gratingly irritating this may be.
Perhaps it's a pointed challenge to her great ri... |

When Pop Music Meets Porn...
Christina Aguilera does not claim that she is a virgin and she certainly does not look like that. Madonna’s flirting with porn is no breaking new anymore, she admits willingly to anybody who bothers to listen that she both enjoys porn and are inspired by it.
Janine Lindenmulder, what

The tattooed pop punk group Blink 182 hired porn queen Janine Lindenmulder as eye candy on their success CD “Enema Of the State” from last year. She appeared as a dirty nurse with a tight glove and in lingerie under a short whi... |

Aguilera's rep, Pamela Murphy, says the teen queen is suffering from a ''viral syndrome associated with exudative tonsillitis'' (i.e., her throat hurts).

Christina Aguilera Finds Success In A Genie In A Bottle
By: Rex Ruthkoski
On a frozen late December in Pittsburgh last year, Christina Aguilera, her blonde locks whipping against her black outfit in an appropriate homage to the black and gold colors of her city’s professional sports teams, walks briskly to the 50-yard line at Three Rivers Stadium.
She was there to belt out the national anthem, as she has done for years for the Steelers, Penguins and Pirates.
Her beloved Steelers then proceeded to come out of a tailspin and upset the Carolina Panthers, winning for the... |

| Limp's Durst Explains Aguilera Duet - Oct 03, 2000 | It was a performance designed to provoke, but even those behind the union of Fred Durst and Christina Aguilera at last month's MTV Video Music Awards had to be taken aback at the reactions the onstage duet inspired.
While some saw the move as a step toward unity in the pop world, many others (including Filter frontman Richard Patrick) viewed the Limp Bizkit singer's stage time with Aguilera as a major embarrassment to the rock world.
"Fred getting onstage with Christina Aguilera embarrassed us all," Patrick told MTV News in the wake of the performance (see "Family Values To Si... |

| It's 'All Right Now' for Aguilera - Oct 04, 2000 |  Unlike some of the other teen performers of pop, there was nothing gimmicky about Christina Aguilera's first headlining tour that pulled into the Universal Amphitheatre on Wednesday.
After all, who needs cutesy lines, choreographed dance moves or silly skits when you're a 19-year-old with one of the biggest and most distinct voices in the industry?
Certainly not Aguilera.
All anyone had to do was be there for the start of her concert, which was signaled by the moaning line from "Genie in a Bottle." Aguilera, dressed in white from head to toe, piped out the opening lines with all t... |

| Stiff Bizkit! - Oct 05, 2000 | Limp Bizkit's Fred Durst has explained why he agreed to duet with Christina Aguilera at the MTV Video Music Awards last month.
Durst, hardly an acolyte of the pretender to Britney's throne as Princess of Pop, has been the target of a vicious backlash after performing alongside Aguilera.
According to MTV, Filter frontman Richard Patrick insisted: Fred getting onstage with Christina Aguilera embarrassed us all.
Some fans who witnessed the performance have been far more vitriolic in their opinions though, with one insisting: The VMA appearance was about the worst moment in music this year.

| Aguilera Responds To Durst's "Nookie" Comment - Oct 10, 2000 |  If you were taken aback by Fred Durst's recent comments about his Video Music Awards performance with Christina Aguilera and his assertion that he "did it all for the nookie," you weren't the only one.
As we previously reported, the Limp Bizkit frontman explained his motives behind the VMA duet with the popster by saying, "I want that girl, that's that" (see "Limp's Durst Explains Aguilera Duet").
As it happens, Aguilera was padding around her house on the morning of October 4 and happened to hear Durst's comments on TV.

| Genie comes out of her bottle in Phoenix - Oct 10, 2000 |  On a night defined by crisp choreography, bare midriffs and the deafening screams of young girls, pop singer Christina Aguilera put on a show Sunday night that proved why she is one of the most popular acts in the entertainment industry.
Judging from the thousands of pre-teens dressed in the latest "Christina" style, the crowd that packed Phoenix's America West Arena was hungry for a night to remember - and it was not disappointed.
When she spoke to the audience, Aguilera's voice sounded hoarse, indicative of the 19-year-old's busy touring schedule. When she sang, however, she took... |

Just when the tiny blond pop star was recovering form Eminem's insults in "The Real Slim Shady," Limp Bizkit's Fred Durst has offended her, MTV reports.
After Fred performed with Christina at the MTV awards, the rock singer claimed he only did the duet "for the nookie".
"I want that girl, that's that," he said.
But Christina, who heard Durst say that on TV, was quick to set the record straight.
"You wish you got some nookie from it," Christina told MTV in response to the comment. "He got no no... |

Aguilera filed suit against her former manager, Steven Kurtz, on Friday in Los Angeles claiming fraud and breach of fiduciary duty.

She made a late-night dash into a West Hollywood store to stock up on party supplies and piled up potato chips, a bottle of expensive champagne, beer and cigarettes on the counter.
The cashier recognized the underage pop star with blue streaks in her hair and reminded her she had to be 21 to purchase liquor. Christina pleaded that the items were for an adult pal waiting in the car, but the clerk refused to budge.

| Aguilera delivers for teen crowd - Oct 22, 2000 |  A 19-year-old woman brought the Stan Sheriff Center at the University of Hawai‘i to life last night, and she doesn’t play for a Wahine team.
A capacity crowd with the average age of 12 screamed and waved as the new queen of pop Christina Aguilera displayed her vocal range.
When watching a concert such as this, a few concessions have to be made. The entire show is more scripted than an Alfred Hitchcock movie and the songs have all the weight of a vanilla wafer. But it’s all about delivery, and that is what separates Aguilera from the rest of the teeny-bopping crowd.
