## The debut era, 1999–2000
After recording "Reflection" for Disney's 1998 animated film *Mulan*, Aguilera signed with RCA, which released her self-titled debut album on August 24, 1999[5](https://www.grammy.com/news/christina-aguilera-22nd-2021-latin-grammys-awards-songbook-ultimate-album-music-guide-complete-discography) • [3](https://mexpedia.org/index.php/Anexo%3ADiscograf%C3%ADa_de_Christina_Aguilera). The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 and was certified 8× Platinum in the United States, making it her best-selling record in that country[3](https://mexpedia.org/index.php/Anexo%3ADiscograf%C3%ADa_de_Christina_Aguilera). Sales figures differ by source: Biography.com reports more than 8 million copies sold[7](https://www.biography.com/musicians/christina-aguilera), BestSellingAlbums.org counts 11,451,861[2](https://bestsellingalbums.org/artist/2420), and the *Historical Dictionary of Popular Music* states more than 17 million[8](https://users.iit.demokritos.gr/~k.palaiologos/thymeli/pdf_files/Rowman%20%26%20Littlefield%20-%20Historical%20Dictionary%20of%20Popular%20Music.pdf).
The singles drove the album's success. "Genie in a Bottle" reached number one in multiple countries including the United States, the United Kingdom, Spain, and Italy; "What a Girl Wants" followed as her second Hot 100 number one, and "Come on Over Baby (All I Want Is You)" gave her a third[5](https://www.grammy.com/news/christina-aguilera-22nd-2021-latin-grammys-awards-songbook-ultimate-album-music-guide-complete-discography) • [9](https://www.allmusic.com/artist/christina-aguilera-mn0000780258/biography). At the 42nd [Grammy Awards](https://www.edgepedia.org/grammy-awards) in 2000 she won Best New Artist[5](https://www.grammy.com/news/christina-aguilera-22nd-2021-latin-grammys-awards-songbook-ultimate-album-music-guide-complete-discography).
**Two albums in 2000.** In September 2000 RCA issued *Mi Reflejo*, her first Spanish-language album, which features Spanish-sung versions of her debut's singles alongside new original songs and covers; "Ven Conmigo (Solamente Tú)," the Spanish version of "Come On Over Baby," reached number one on Billboard's Hot Latin Tracks chart[5](https://www.grammy.com/news/christina-aguilera-22nd-2021-latin-grammys-awards-songbook-ultimate-album-music-guide-complete-discography) • [10](https://academia-lab.com/enciclopedia/discografia-de-cristina-aguilera/). The album won the Latin Grammy Award for Female Pop Vocal Album in 2001, her first win in that ceremony[5](https://www.grammy.com/news/christina-aguilera-22nd-2021-latin-grammys-awards-songbook-ultimate-album-music-guide-complete-discography). It was certified 6× Platinum (Latin) by the RIAA and has sold about 490,000 copies in the United States[10](https://academia-lab.com/enciclopedia/discografia-de-cristina-aguilera/). The holiday album *My Kind of Christmas* followed in late 2000, an 11-track set of yuletide standards and originals that has sold more than one million copies in the United States as of August 2019[5](https://www.grammy.com/news/christina-aguilera-22nd-2021-latin-grammys-awards-songbook-ultimate-album-music-guide-complete-discography) • [3](https://mexpedia.org/index.php/Anexo%3ADiscograf%C3%ADa_de_Christina_Aguilera).
## Stripped and Back to Basics, 2002–2006
*Stripped*, released in 2002, marked her break from teen pop. Aguilera co-wrote the majority of the album, which mixes gospel, jazz, R&B, rock, and Latin genres[5](https://www.grammy.com/news/christina-aguilera-22nd-2021-latin-grammys-awards-songbook-ultimate-album-music-guide-complete-discography) • [11](https://los40.com/2024/10/22/stripped-la-liberacion-musical-de-christina-aguilera-cumple-22-anos/). Lead single "Dirrty," featuring Redman, announced the new "Xtina" persona, and the second single "Beautiful," written by [Linda Perry](https://www.edgepedia.org/linda-perry), became the most important song of her career by the Grammy.com account; it won the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Pop Female Vocal Performance and has become an anthem for the LGBTQ+ community[5](https://www.grammy.com/news/christina-aguilera-22nd-2021-latin-grammys-awards-songbook-ultimate-album-music-guide-complete-discography). The album has sold 9,113,907 copies per BestSellingAlbums.org[2](https://bestsellingalbums.org/artist/2420).
In 2001, between the two albums, Aguilera recorded "Lady Marmalade" with [Lil' Kim](https://www.edgepedia.org/lil-kim), Mya, and P!nk for the *Moulin Rouge!* film soundtrack[12](https://cdn.vanderbilt.edu/vu-URL/wp-content/uploads/sites/356/2025/03/23215540/Mulraine_FINAL.pdf).
*Back to Basics* (2006) was a two-CD, 22-song set executive-produced and co-written by Aguilera, inspired by the music and imagery of the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s[13](https://www.worldradiohistory.com/Archive-All-Music/Billboard/00s/2006/BB-2006-07-29.pdf). Lead single "Ain't No Other Man," produced by [DJ Premier](https://www.edgepedia.org/dj-premier), blended vintage sounds with a hip-hop edge and helped earn her the Grammy for Best Pop Female Vocal Performance; the second disc, produced largely by Linda Perry, includes the ballad "Hurt" and the Andrews Sisters-style "Candyman"[5](https://www.grammy.com/news/christina-aguilera-22nd-2021-latin-grammys-awards-songbook-ultimate-album-music-guide-complete-discography). AllMusic describes the album as retro-swing-inspired and calls Aguilera the most musically ambitious pop diva of the boom by that point[9](https://www.allmusic.com/artist/christina-aguilera-mn0000780258/biography).
## Bionic, Lotus, and Liberation, 2010–2018
*Bionic* (2010) looked to the future rather than the past, embracing electronica and synthpop. Lead single "Not Myself Tonight" was helmed by [Polow da Don](https://www.edgepedia.org/polow-da-don), and the album drew contributions from [Nicki Minaj](https://www.edgepedia.org/nicki-minaj) ("Woohoo"), M.I.A. (co-writer of "Elastic Love"), Peaches, Le Tigre, and Ladytron[5](https://www.grammy.com/news/christina-aguilera-22nd-2021-latin-grammys-awards-songbook-ultimate-album-music-guide-complete-discography). The same year she made her film debut in *Burlesque*, performing on most of the soundtrack, including "Bound to You," co-written with Sia and nominated for the 2011 Golden Globe for Best Original Song[5](https://www.grammy.com/news/christina-aguilera-22nd-2021-latin-grammys-awards-songbook-ultimate-album-music-guide-complete-discography).
*Lotus* (2012), her fifth album, followed personal struggles including divorce; lead single "Your Body" was her first collaboration with [Max Martin](https://www.edgepedia.org/max-martin), and the [Blake Shelton](https://www.edgepedia.org/blake-shelton) duet "Just a Fool" drew on her role as a coach on *The Voice*[5](https://www.grammy.com/news/christina-aguilera-22nd-2021-latin-grammys-awards-songbook-ultimate-album-music-guide-complete-discography). During this period her biggest chart moments came as a featured artist, on [Maroon 5](https://www.edgepedia.org/maroon-5)'s "Moves Like Jagger" (2010) and Pitbull's "Feel This Moment" (2012)[6](https://music.apple.com/us/artist/christina-aguilera/259398) • [14](https://time.com/5311982/christina-aguilera-liberation/).
*Liberation* (2018), her first album in six years, was framed as a reset after nearly two decades in the public eye. Lead single "Accelerate" was produced by [Kanye West](https://www.edgepedia.org/kanye-west), Mike Dean, and Charlie Heat with Ty Dolla $ign and 2 Chainz, and the [Demi Lovato](https://www.edgepedia.org/demi-lovato) duet "Fall in Line" earned a 2019 Grammy nomination for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance[14](https://time.com/5311982/christina-aguilera-liberation/) • [5](https://www.grammy.com/news/christina-aguilera-22nd-2021-latin-grammys-awards-songbook-ultimate-album-music-guide-complete-discography).
## Return to Spanish and recent releases, 2022–2025
*AGUILERA*, released May 31, 2022 through Sony Music Latin, is her second Spanish-language album and her ninth studio album. It is a trilogy record assembled from three separately released parts, *La Fuerza*, *La Tormenta*, and *La Luz*, dealing with empowerment, vulnerability, and healing; singles included "Pa Mis Muchachas" with [Becky G](https://www.edgepedia.org/becky-g), Nicki Nicole, and Nathy Peluso, and "Santo" with Ozuna[15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kwb_Vg60oj4). The album won the 2022 Latin Grammy for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album, her second Latin Grammy[4](https://www.christinaaguilera.com/us/home).
Later releases have centered on anniversaries and live work. The *Stripped – 20th Anniversary Edition* appeared in 2022, and the *25th Anniversary of Christina Aguilera LIVE* EP followed in 2024 with new live renditions of her debut's singles[6](https://music.apple.com/us/artist/christina-aguilera/259398). In December 2025 she released *Christmas in Paris (Live from the Eiffel Tower)*, a 13-song live album recorded in front of the [Eiffel Tower](https://www.edgepedia.org/eiffel-tower); a CBS concert special aired eight days after the December 14 performance, marking a celebration of the 25th anniversary of *My Kind of Christmas*[6](https://music.apple.com/us/artist/christina-aguilera/259398) • [16](https://www.allmusic.com/artist/christina-aguilara-mn0000780258).
## Sales and chart standing
BestSellingAlbums.org, updated February 2025, credits Aguilera with over 29.1 million albums sold and ranks her the 126th best-selling album artist of all time; her two biggest sellers are the 1999 debut (11.45 million) and *Stripped* (9.11 million)[2](https://bestsellingalbums.org/artist/2420). By May 2010 she had accumulated 16 top 40 hits on the Billboard Hot 100, tying [Britney Spears](https://www.edgepedia.org/britney-spears) for the fourth-most among female artists in that span[17](https://www.worldradiohistory.com/Archive-All-Music/Billboard/00s/2010/BB-2010-05-22.pdf). Her five Hot 100 number ones place her among the artists who have topped the chart in three consecutive decades[4](https://www.christinaaguilera.com/us/home).
