Early life

Christina Flores was born on September 26, 1981, Jersey City, New Jersey, and is of Cuban descent. Her parents are Don Flores and Carmen Milian.
Flores changed her name and adopted her mother's maiden name (Milian) in the hopes of landing a wider range of acting roles. The oldest of three sisters, including Danielle and Elizabeth, she moved with her family to Waldorf, Maryland, soon after her birth. Milian was four years old when she showed an interest in show business, and when her family realized that she was a talented actress, she determined to pursue a career in entertainment. As a child, Milian was "very imaginative and very creative", and watching television and listening to the radio became her life. They inspired her to have fun, and she convinced her parents that she "wanted to be inside the TV", although convincing them took some time. By the time she was nine years old, Milian had begun auditioning with local talent agencies, shot commercials for Wendy's and Honeycomb, and played the lead role in the musical Annie. Milian's mother supported her daughter's potential and left her husband and moved to Los Angeles with her three daughters when Milian was 13 years old. Her father had to stay in Maryland and divorced her mother soon after the move.
When Milian moved to Los Angeles, her first desire was to be an actress. She had always also wanted to be in the record business, but did not know how to obtain a recording contract. During this time, she was a host for Disney Channel's series Movie Surfers, by the name of Tina. After living in Los Angeles for six months, Milian moved into the same apartment complex as songwriter and producer Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins, who (like Milian) was also born in New Jersey. Jerkins heard about Milian from a boy band with which he was working and once he heard her sing, they began working together. For a year and a half, Milian went into a studio every day and worked with Jerkins, which is how she started meeting people in the record business. She began writing songs at the age of 17 because she needed a demonstration recording (demo) to help her obtain a recording contract. According to Milian, every time she recorded a song, the producer would refuse to give her the demo or would write lyrics with which she did not agree. She felt that she had to write a song, record a demo, and send it out on her own.

2000–2002: Christina Milian, record deal and acting debut

Milian's first major acting role was offered by the Disney Channel to join The Mickey Mouse Club, but she did not accept and opted to star as a reporter on Movie Surfers. During this time, she had minor roles in film and television, including Sister, Sister, Smart Guy, The Steve Harvey Show, Get Real, The Wood and American Pie. Milian made her first professional musical appearance on rapper Ja Rule's second studio album Rule 3:36 (2000), performing vocals on the song "Between Me and You×Between Me and You2000 · SingleSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 4 tracks1Between Me And You (radio edit)4:1422 Die (radio edit)4:403Holla Holla (clean version)3:474Between Me and You". The song was released as the album's lead single in 2000, peaking at number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100, and on the top 30 of the UK Singles Chart in the United Kingdom. Milian co-wrote and performed vocals for the track "Play" for Jennifer Lopez's album J. Lo (2001), and co-wrote "Same Ol' Same Ol'", the second single from girl group PYT's debut album PYT (Down with Me) (2001).
Milian's collaboration with Ja Rule led to a record deal with Def Soul Records, prompted by his affiliation with Murder Inc. Records, an imprint that was distributed through Def Jam, the parent label of Def Soul Records. She travelled to Sweden and recorded her self-titled debut album. The album was released outside North America on January 23, 2002, peaking at number 23 on the UK Albums Chart in the United Kingdom. The album's domestic release was canceled, primarily due to the September 11 attacks. Two singles were taken from the album, "AM to PM×AM to PM26 November 2001 · SingleSpotifyYouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 7 tracks1AM to PM3:522Between Me And You4:243A Girl Like Me (snippet)2:084You Make Me Laugh (snippet)1:345When You look at me (snippet)1:356It Hurts When...

Critical response to the album was generally mixed to positive. In the following years, she was featured on the track "It's All Gravy", a duet with British rapper Romeo, which peaked at number nine on the UK Singles Chart, becoming Milian's third top ten song in Britain as a credited artist, and fourth overall; provided the theme song for the hit Disney Channel animated series Kim Possible, "Call Me, Beep Me!"; and collaborated with Hilary Duff on the song "I Heard Santa on the Radio" for Duff's debut album Santa Claus Lane (2002).

In 2002, Milian was appointed the host of the live competitive music series Becoming Presents: Wannabe on MTV, where she met director Joseph Kahn. Kahn suggested she audition for a lead role in the film Torque. Her audition was successful and she played a supporting role in the film. She was subsequently cast in her first lead role in Love Don't Cost a Thing.

2003–2004: It's About Time and continued acting

Milian felt that Island Def Jam was confused as to how they wanted her image to be portrayed. In 2003, Milian's label, Def Soul, later shifted its focus into R&B veterans under its Def Soul Classics faction; Def Soul would later be folded into its parent, Def Jam, in 2011. However, Milian would later be drafted to sister label Island Records. After the international release of her debut album, Milian went back into the recording studio. The singer felt that music trends had changed into rock music, hardcore hip hop and tribute songs, and her music did not fall into those categories. Milian decided to stop recording and toured overseas for a year and a half. When she returned to the US, she decided not to release her previous album domestically, and started working on a new album. Milian traveled the world, working with the popular producers Bloodshy & Avant, "Darkchild", Cory Rooney, Warryn Campbell, Bryan-Michael Cox and Polli Paul. Milian also appeared in the video game Def Jam Vendetta (2003), where she plays non-playable character Angeline "Angel" Rodriguez.
Milian's second studio album, It's About Time, was released in the US on July 13, 2004. The critical response to the album was mixed; the club tracks, most notably lead single "Dip It Low×Dip It Low1 January 2004 · SingleSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 3 tracks1Dit it Low3:182Dit it Low3:413Dit it Low4:03", were praised while the ballads were said to be disappointing. The style and sound of the album was compared to that of Beyoncé and Jennifer Lopez by several critics. Milian later admitted that her new sexy image for "Dip It Low" and the whole album was mainly for shock value. She had to make her way back into the US market, and by choosing a sexier image, she made a name for herself. "Dip It Low" was also meant to show that she was not the same 18-year-old girl in the "AM to PM×AM to PM26 November 2001 · SingleSpotifyYouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 7 tracks1AM to PM3:522Between Me And You4:243A Girl Like Me (snippet)2:084You Make Me Laugh (snippet)1:345When You look at me (snippet)1:356It Hurts When... (snippet)2:057Satisfaction Guaranteed (snippet)2:37" video. To create her new image, Milian also decided to change her appearance and lightened her hair. Taking inspiration from Janet Jackson who constantly changed her image, Milian thought to herself, "'When did I like Janet Jackson the most?' It was when she had her lightened hair."
Milian believed that the album was more R&B when compared to her "bubble-gum" pop debut album. The change was reflected in the album's lead single, "Dip It Low", which was more of a club and R&B track than her previous pop release "AM to PM". Milian performed as an opening act on Usher's Truth tour to promote her album. The album debuted and peaked at number 14 on the Billboard 200, and number 21 on the UK Albums Chart, selling a total of 382,000 and 63,708 copies respectively, and received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Contemporary R&B Album in 2005. The album's first single, "Dip It Low", became Milian's biggest hit to date, peaking at number five on the Billboard Hot 100, and number two on the UK Singles Chart. The single was certified Gold by the RIAA for digital sales, and earned a Grammy Award nomination for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration. The album's second and final single, "Whatever U Want×Whatever U Want2004 · SingleSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 6 tracks1Whatever U Want (radio version)3:492Whatever U Want (DJ Cipha Sounds remix)3:383Whatever U Want (JJ Flores Old Skool radio)3:454Whatever U Want (Kriya & Velez radio edit)4:015Whatever U Want (Roy Davis and Tomi Deep Soul remix)9:066Whatever U Want (video)3:58", featuring Joe Budden, failed to reprise the success of the lead single. "Whatever U Want" was more successful in the United Kingdom, where the song peaked at number nine on the UK Singles Chart in October 2004.

2005–2006: So Amazin' and label departure

Milian starred in Be Cool (2005), the sequel to Get Shorty, with John Travolta and Uma Thurman, and recorded two songs for its soundtrack. She was then cast in a lead role in the horror film Pulse, starring alongside Kristen Bell and Ian Somerhalder. The film was a remake of the Japanese film Kairo (2001), and was adapted by Wes Craven and Ray Wright. Filming took place in Romania, a traumatic time for Milian, where she endured racial abuse and discovered that boyfriend Nick Cannon was cheating on her. The same year, Milian was awarded with a humanitarian award at The Reign fundraiser from the Elton John AIDS Foundation for being a role model for young children. Milian said, "I've never been rewarded that way and never been acknowledged like that. That was really nice of them, and I was happy I was able to show up for the kids."
Whereas Milian's previous albums had pop and R&B stylings, she was encouraged by Island Def Jam to target a new audience and release an urban record. L.A. Reid suggested to Milian that she should work with Cool & Dre, with whom she ended up working with as the first people to start off the album. Although Milian was originally supposed to work with several different music producers, she felt that the chemistry they had in the first week was so "instant and real" that she felt she could not get a better "vibe" with anybody else other than them. Milian ended up working with Cool & Dre on the majority of the production of the album, producing ten of the album's eleven tracks together. The album was completed within a three-month period.

The album's lead single, "Say I×Say I1 January 2006 · SingleSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 2 tracks1Say I (clean)3:322Say I (Hani Say I extended remix)9:22", featured rapper Young Jeezy. The single saw peak positions of number four in the UK, and number twenty-one in the US. So Amazin' debuted and peaked at number eleven on the Billboard 200 albums chart, selling 54,000 copies in its first week and 163,000 copies in total. Internationally, the album peaked at number 55 on the Swiss Albums Chart, 67 on the UK Albums Chart, and 139 on the France Albums Chart. Reviews of So Amazin' were mixed; critics felt that while Milian claimed that she was displaying the various sides of her personality, the album could "only [scratch] the surface of who she really is." "Say I" was praised by several critics, and was described as "instantly rousing" and "intoxicating". In June 2006, Milian's representative confirmed that Island had released her from the imprint. In an interview with Rap-Up, Milian revealed she was dropped a week after her album was released. The singer believed it was a "budget cut", and that Island Def Jam wanted to spend more money on label mate Rihanna; Milian also turned down what would later be Rihanna's hit single, "SOS". She said, "it was embarrassing. It was a week after my album got put out. I would be in my room a lot of the time crying by myself."

2007–2010: Canceled album and continued acting

In 2007, Milian worked with the Children Uniting Nations charity, in which she was a big sister to foster children. In May, it was reported that she was to be a leading character in The CW's show Eight Days a Week as Olivia, alongside Mario Lopez, but The CW decided not to pick up the series due to the Writers Guild of America strike. In December, Milian starred as the main character in the Christmas television movie for the ABC Family channel entitled Snowglobe, alongside Lorraine Bracco. That year, Milian began working on material for her fourth studio album, first announced to be titled Dream in Color in 2008 but retitled as Elope the following year. She collaborated with numerous producers, including Cool & Dre, J. R. Rotem, The Runners, Danja, Terry "MaddScientist" Thomas, T-Pain, Jim Jonsin and Toby Gad.
Milian signed with MySpace Records in 2008.

Milian appeared in the video game Need for Speed: Undercover (2008) as one of the female leads, Carmen Mendez.
In early 2009, Milian began working with The-Dream, Tricky Stewart, and L.O.S. Da Maestro, which led to her signing a deal with Radio Killa Records. Milian revealed that aside from "Us Against the World", The-Dream and Tricky Stewart would be producing all the songs on her album. In June 2009, The-Dream said that the album was finished. Upon completion of the album, Milian said it represented "independence, not having to answer to any type of 'authority', being a woman at her best and feeling very confident". In August 2009, Milian confirmed that she had signed a deal to release Elope through Interscope Records with a 2010 release date. Milian became romantically involved with The-Dream, and the pair eloped that September. Milian announced that she was pregnant, and in October, it was reported that the album had been postponed. The pair separated in late 2009, only three months after their wedding. Despite the separation, Milian and The-Dream continued to "work together and write together". That year, Milian had a minor role in Ghosts of Girlfriends Past alongside Matthew McConaughey, and starred as the lead role in the straight-to-DVD film Bring It On: Fight to the Finish.
In January 2010, Milian said that she was going back into the studio in the summer to record more material. Although the album had already been finished, she wanted to "go back and re-do some of the music and make some new songs and find my new inspiration". At the 2010 Los Angeles Fashion Week, Milian performed "Dip It Low×Dip It Low1 January 2004 · SingleSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 3 tracks1Dit it Low3:182Dit it Low3:413Dit it Low4:03" and the new song "Zipper".

On February 12, 2012, Christina Milian parted ways with Radio Killa Records and signed with Young Money. The next day, a song titled "Mr. Valentine" leaked onto the internet.

Heritage

Milian has faced challenges regarding her Cuban-American identity and how she is perceived by others due to her Afro-Latina heritage, stating:

I'm Cuban but [people] didn't get it because I was also brown-skinned... Latinos come in all colors, all shades... You should see my mom and her brothers and sisters... We just vary in color, shapes and sizes. But we're still Latinos — that doesn't change a damn thing.

Relationships and children

Milian met actor Nick Cannon on the set of their film, Love Don't Cost a Thing, in 2003, and they began dating. After being together for two and a half years, Milian ended her relationship with Cannon in 2005 because of his infidelity.
After the production of So Amazin' in 2006, Milian began dating Andre Lyon from the production group Cool & Dre. The pair dated until February 2009.
In February 2009, reports emerged that Milian was dating musician The-Dream. In late May 2009, it was reported that Milian and The-Dream would marry; the couple celebrated their engagement in Las Vegas in June. On September 4, 2009, Milian and The-Dream eloped and were married at the Little White Chapel in Las Vegas, Nevada. MTV reported that Milian and The-Dream would get married again in Rome, Italy, and then renew their vows in the US in front of family and friends. On September 11, 2009, it was announced that Milian and The-Dream were expecting their first child together. The pair separated in late 2009, after only three months. On February 26, 2010, Milian gave birth to a daughter. This was Milian's first child, and the fourth for The-Dream, who had three children with ex-wife Nivea. As a Catholic, she baptized her daughter into the faith. Two years after she and The-Dream separated, their divorce became finalized on October 23, 2011.
In September 2010, Milian began dating James "Jas" Prince Jr., son of impresario James Prince, the founder and CEO of Rap-A-Lot Records. In April 2013, Milian and Prince became engaged. However, she moved out of the couple's home on June 19, 2014, and the couple called off their engagement.

Since 2023, Milian has been living in France. She and her family previously lived in Hollywood before relocating to Paris.

Artistry

Milian possesses a soprano vocal range. Her vocal style has been compared to Paula Abdul and Aaliyah by critics. David Peisner of Maxim commented on her talent and described her voice as being "silky and sassy." Earlier in her career, Milian was mainly an urban pop and teen pop singer but as she matured and grew her sound later grew to branch out into a more hip hop soul and straight forward R&B sound on her later two releases It's About Time (2004) and So Amazin' (2006).
Milian described the sound of the album as "hip hop under-toned with nice, pop melodies", and later said the genre of the album was "bubble-gum pop". She described lead single "AM to PM×AM to PM26 November 2001 · SingleSpotifyYouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 7 tracks1AM to PM3:522Between Me And You4:243A Girl Like Me (snippet)2:084You Make Me Laugh (snippet)1:345When You look at me (snippet)1:356It Hurts When... (snippet)2:057Satisfaction Guaranteed (snippet)2:37" as a "very pop" and "fun, party/club song". The genre of the album was described by one critic as "light-hearted, energetic R&B pop tunes". Sonically, the album was said to stick "rigidly to the sherbert-snorting pop formula of Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera". One reviewer compared Milian to other singers of her generation, and found that "while Spears has gone raunchy with 'I Love Rock 'n' Roll', Christina Aguilera down and dirty on Stripped, and even clean-cut Mandy Moore has brashly cut her hair Felicity-style, Milian still seems young and real." The critic also compared Milian to Beyoncé, "while Beyonce is shaking her bootylicious body like crazy on 'Crazy In Love', Milian is simply enjoying becoming a young star."
Milian described the genre of It's About Time as more R&B in comparison to her "bubble-gum pop" debut album. Discussing the change of genre between her lead singles, Milian said that the "first single off my last album, 'AM to PM', was more of a kiddie kind of thing, very pop. [Dip It Low] is more R&B, kind of a club/party kind of vibe." An issue Milian had with the album was that it did not flow. The various pop and urban influences in that album, she found, confused the audience. For her next studio album, Milian said that she wanted a more consistent feel.

Other ventures

In 2010, Milian signed Australian singers, Kasey Osborne and Kelsey-Maree, as their manager. Milian said, "the girls have everything it takes to be the biggest international duo out there. The world is definitely ready for these beautiful girls to hit the stage and kill it on screen." She said that the duo were the "most exciting project" she had worked on.
