We all like to think we're accomplished people. But for Christina Milian (real name Christine Flores) accomplishment has a whole new meaning - R & B Singer, songwriter, dancer, actress, model and record producer are some of items adorning her CV. With three studio albums already released and a fourth, Elope, due for release shortly this stunning lady does not know the meaning of time off.
Best known for her singing her original desire was to be an actress. She landed the lead role in the 2003 film Love Don't Cost a Thing. She also had major parts in Be Cool and Pulse. Her biggest music hits to date were AM to PM and When You Look At Me, both peaking at number 3 in the UK singles chart. Dip It Low, released on her second album It's about Time (2004) provided her first major US hit which peaked at number 5 in the US charts.
Just to prove that life has a nasty habit of kicking you about, Def Jam, her record label, dumped her unceremoniously just weeks after the release of her third album in 2006. Milian believed it was because of a budget cut and Def Jam wanting to spend more on promoting Rihanna. Def Jam cited 'creative differences.' Not one to just walk away, Milian signed with MySpace Records and began writing and recording songs with numerous producers - Cool & Dre, Danja, Madd Scientist and T-Pain amongst them. In August 2009 Milian confirmed a record deal had been signed with Interscope Records to release her fourth album - Elope. No confirmed release date is available but it should be available sometime in late 2009 or early 2010.

"I moved here to California when I was 13 to pursue my acting career."
"My advice to someone to follow in my footsteps is to have patience. I've been doing this for twelve years."
