Early Life

Born Christine Flores on September 26, 1981, in Jersey City, New Jersey, Christina Milian was raised in Waldorf, Maryland, by her parents Don Flores and Carmen Milian. She has two younger sisters. Milian adopted her stage name from her mother’s maiden name to expand her career opportunities. By age nine, she was auditioning for roles and landing commercials, such as those for Wendy’s. At thirteen, her mother moved the family to Los Angeles to further Milian’s acting aspirations, leading to her parents’ divorce.

In Los Angeles, Milian initially focused on acting, hosting the Disney Channel series “Movie Surfers.” However, meeting producer Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins in her apartment complex shifted her focus to music, leading her to record demos and network in the music industry.

Music Career

Milian’s first professional music appearance was on Ja Rule’s song “Between Me and You” from his album “Rule 3:36” (2000), which peaked at No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100. She co-wrote songs for artists like Jennifer Lopez and PYT, and her collaboration with Ja Rule led to a deal with Def Soul Records. She recorded her self-titled debut album in Sweden, released in the UK in October 2001. Due to the September 11 attacks, the album’s U.S. release was postponed and eventually canceled. Milian continued her music career with notable projects like the theme song for Disney Channel’s “Kim Possible” and collaborations with artists like Romeo and Hilary Duff.
