Christina Aguilera is back after a four year absence. She comes back strong with Bionic, her fourth studio album and plans to sell Christina Aguilera tickets for a promotional tour featuring Leona Lewis as her supporting act.
The 2010 tour will begin with Christina Aguilera playing close to her New York roots. The concert schedule starts at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, CT on July 15 and will run until August 19, 2010 with a final summer concert at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater in Irvine, CA. Christina is playing exclusively in the United States in her first tour since the 1006-2007 Back to Basics tour. There is always potential for more dates to be added to the 20-show schedule.
Having co-starred on The New Mickey Mouse Club with Britney Spears, 'N Sync's JC Chasez and Justin Timberlake, and Felicity's Keri Russell, it was just a matter of time before the record companies descended upon Christina Aguilera. Combining ultra-slick production with a liquid voice and a not-so-innocent gaze that makes grown men feel uncomfortable, this teenage diva shot up the charts with catchy pop hits such as 'Genie in a Bottle.'
b. Christina Maria Aguilera, 18 December 1980, Staten Island, New York, USA. Aguilera was one of several US teen pop stars to rise to huge popular acclaim in the late 90s. Of Irish and Ecuadorian descent, her mother played violin and piano professionally while her father's position in the military resulted in the family traveling extensively around the world. Finally settling in Wexford, Pittsburgh, Aguilera began performing at school talent shows, before making her first professional appearance at the age of eight on the nationally syndicated Star Search show. When she was 10 she sang the national anthem for the Pittsburgh Steelers and Pirates. She joined [Walt] Disney's Mickey Mouse Club at the age of 12, appearing alongside future pop stars JC Chasez and Justin Timberlake of 'N Sync, and Britney Spears. Aguilera spent two years with the Mickey Mouse Club before moving to Japan to record 'All I Wanna Do', a hit duet with local pop star Keizo Nakanishi.
