From mid-2000 to early 2001, she embarked on her first concert tour, “Christina Aguilera in Concert,” which took her to cities across North and South America, Europe, South and Central America, and Japan.Īguilera fired her manager, Steve Kurtz, after becoming dissatisfied with the lack of control she had over her image and songs. Later, in September and October of 2000, she recorded two more studio albums, the Spanish-language “Mi Reflejo” and the festive album “My Kind of Christmas,” which were both published in the same year. It has been certified platinum eight times by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and has sold more than 17 million copies worldwide as of the end of 2010.Īguilera was named Best New Artist at the 42nd Annual Grammy Awards, which took place in February 2000.
Her self-titled debut album was released in August 1999 and peaked at number one on the Billboard 200 chart in the United States. When her single “Genie in a Bottle,” which was published in June 1999, reached the top of the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States, Aguilera became a household name. Because she was part of a teen pop craze at the time, her record label hastened the creation of her album in order to keep up with her fellow popstar Britney Spears. Following the success of “Reflection,” Aguilera obtained a recording contract with RCA Records.
