The Genie in a Bottle hitmaker was born 44 years ago in Ocean Breeze, New York, USA, at Staten Island University Hospital, to Shelly Loraine and Fausto Wagner Xavier Aguilera.
Christina is now a mother of two children: son Max Liron Bratman, born in 2008 during her previous marriage to music executive Jordan Bratman, and daughter Summer Rain Rutler, born in 2014 with her fiancé Matthew Rutler, a film producer whom she met on the set of Burlesque in 2010.
Despite embracing her 40s, the Grammy Award winner has faced significant backlash amid rumors that she was using Ozempic to lose weight.
Ozempic is an injectable prescription medicine used in combination with diet and exercise to help manage blood sugar levels, the European Medicines Agency states.
It can be used on its own or in addition to other diabetes medications, such as metformin, sulphonylureas, or insulin.
Ozempic can also help reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, or death in adults with type 2 diabetes and known heart disease.

While Ozempic is not approved for weight loss, some physicians prescribe it for this purpose, as per UC Davis Health. Ozempic can help with weight loss by reducing appetite, which can lead to the consumption of fewer calories.
Christina previously sparked a heated debate over her dramatic weight loss when, on September 26, she visited Barry’s gym in West Hollywood, California.
She was celebrating the 25th anniversary of her self-titled debut album and her limited edition Fuel Bar shake, “Genie in a Blender,” inspired by her 1999 hit Genie in a Bottle, Bored Panda previously reported.
Taking to her Instagram page on September 27, Christina, who sported a skintight black bodysuit and thigh-high black leather boots, shared clips of herself posing while holding the shake in the gym and café area.
At one point, Christina was seen lifting a dumbbell while posing under an illuminated Barry’s WeHo sign.
Christina wrote in the caption: “Thank you for having me @barrys.” Nevertheless, her video left many people divided as an Instagram user commented: “Promoting a gym when the reason she got so skinny has nothing to do with exercise hahaaha.”

The post ignited scrutiny, with certain netizens noting that the singer looked “too thin” and that she “doesn’t eat” but rather uses Ozempic.
In recent years, Ozempic has become a notable favorite among celebrities, many of whom have opened up about using the drug or have been exposed for secretly taking it.
In fact, celebrity use and social media promotion of Ozempic has reportedly contributed to a shortage of the drug, which is intended to treat diabetes.
Several celebrities, such as Elon Musk, Amy Schumer, and Oprah Winfrey, have confessed to having used it at one point or another.
Christina is notable for being a powerhouse vocalist, performer, and cultural icon.
Bursting onto the scene with her self-titled debut album in 1999, she captivated audiences with several hits, including What a Girl Wants.

The vocalist, famous for her four-octave range, has earned numerous accolades, including five Grammy Awards, two Latin Grammy Awards, six ALMA Awards, two MTV Video Music Awards, and a Billboard Music Award.
In January 2008, she was ranked 19th on Forbes' list of Top-Earning Women in Music of 2007 with earnings of $20 million.
Additionally, in August 2022, Christina’s net worth was reported to be $160 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
