Christina Milian
R&B Singer — born 1981
Christina Milian is a talented American actress and singer-songwriter.
Christina Milian is an American singer, songwriter, and actress whose two-decade career has produced multiple R&B and pop singles, plus substantial work as an American TV-personality and lifestyle figure. She was born Christine Marie Flores on September 26, 1981, in Jersey City, New Jersey, to Cuban-American parents. Her family relocated to Maryland when she was young, and she pursued acting in her early teens before pivoting to music.
Her career-launching record-deal break came in 1998 when she was signed to Def Jam Recordings as a songwriter — co-writing the Jennifer Lopez 2000 single "Play" with Kelly "Cori" Tillman and others. Her 2001 self-titled debut album Christina Milian on Def Soul Records produced the single "AM to PM" — which reached the Billboard Hot 100 top 30 — and established her as one of the most-iconic young Latina-American R&B-pop singers of the early 2000s.
Her commercial peak came with her 2004 album It's About Time, which produced the Hot 100 top-5 single "Dip It Low" — one of the most-iconic American R&B singles of 2004. She continued to record through the late 2000s and 2010s, including the 2006 album So Amazin' and the 2011 EP Elope, but increasingly pivoted toward acting and reality-TV work.
Her parallel acting career has included roles in The Wood (1999), Bring It On: Fight to the Finish (2009), Be Cool (2005), and the Lifetime channel reality series Christina Milian Turned Up (2015–2017). She voiced Tristana Maria "Trixie" Espinoza on Fox's Lucifer (2016, recurring role). She became a substantial American social-media food-and-lifestyle figure through her Beignet Box food truck (launched 2018 in Los Angeles), which has expanded into multiple franchise locations across the American Southwest. She has been with French singer Matt Pokora since 2017, and the couple has two children.
Her name Christina is from the Latin Christiana, the feminine form of Christianus meaning "follower of Christ." Christina has been continuously among the most-popular American girls' names for decades.
