Christina Aguilera Sparks Ozempic Rumors amid Dramatic Weight Loss – Her Transformation in Photos

• Aguilera, who started her music career as a child, has been married once and is a mother of two.
• Her dramatic weight loss has recently sparked rumors about using Ozempic.
• Here's a look into her life from her days as a child star till to date and how her body has changed through the years.

Former child star Christina Aguilera has recently had a drastic physical transformation, leading many to believe she went the Ozempic route to lose weight.

Born on December 18, 1980, in Staten Island, New York, Christina Aguilera had a troubled early life due to her father's abuse of her mother. At six, her mother left the abusive marriage, moving to Rochester, Pennsylvania, with Christina and her sister.

Having started a new life, young Aguilera first developed a love for music when she was only six years old. She inherited her musical talents from her mother, an experienced pianist and violinist.

With her incredible voice, young Aguilera wowed many people in elementary school including her classmates and parents. She had entered talent shows and the attention she received became so overwhelming, that her mom decided to have her home-schooled.

Despite this, Aguilera continued to perform, and she landed a spot in the national television program, "Star Search." The New Yorker, then eight, made an impression with a memorable rendition of "A Sunday Kind of Love" by Etta James and finished second place in the competition.

"At that age, I always sang songs meant for older people. That fit my personality—I had pain to sing about. If there had been a show like 'The Voice,' I would have gone on it. It would have been amazing to be coached by a mentor," Aguilera reflected on her performance on the show.

The songwriter garnered national recognition after appearing as a "Mouseketeer" on "The All New Mickey Mouse Club," which also starred Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake.

The blonde beauty was on the program for two years before moving to Japan with her mother. While on foreign soil, Aguilera recorded the hit single, "All I Wanna Do," and more doors opened up for her.

While on the rise to superstardom, the award-winning pop singer released her debut album "Christina Aguilera" which sold more than 8 million copies.

Hits that contributed to the success of this album include "Genie in a Bottle" and "What a Girl Wants." The album earned Aguilera a Grammy Award for Best New Artist.

While her counterparts Spears and Timberlake were also making waves with their respective music, Aguilera became one of the leading faces of teen pop stars.

She later collaborated with fellow artists such as Pink, Lil Kim, and Mya on the hit single, "Lady Marmalade." This was followed by her highly sexualized second album "Stripped" in 2002 which featured songs including "Dirrty" and "Make Over."
