In 2004, Aguilera was listed as one of the most influential people in the music market according to The Independent,[24] and was ranked as the eighth greatest woman in the phonographic industry by VH1.[25] In 2007, her self-titled debut album was added to the definitive list from Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, being recognized as one of "history's most influential and popular albums".[26] In 2010, Aguilera was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.[27] In 2024, Billboard listed Aguilera as an honorable mention from their list of the "25 Greatest Pop Stars of the 21st Century".[28] In 2025, the same magazine ranked her as the 20th most successful female artist of the 21st Century.[29] Various wax figures of Aguilera have also been displated at Madame Tussauds museums throughout multiple cities, including London,[30] New York City[31] and Amsterdam.[32]

### Latin heritage

[edit]

Aguilera's father is an Ecuadorian immigrant and she has been credited for honoring her Latin roots throughout her career.[43] Forbes writer Jeff Benjamin noted that Aguilera has honored her roots "since the start of her career with Spanish albums, covers of classic songs and collaborations across the industry".[43] In 2012, Aguilera noted that "I am Ecuadorian but [that early in her career] people felt so safe passing me off as a skinny, blue-eyed white girl".[44] She noted that before her debut in 1999 she was told to change her last name many times, but fought to keep it.[45] She noted in an interview that,

> Christina Agee was an option, but that clearly wasn't going to fly. I was dead set against the idea, and I wanted to represent who I really was. Being Latina, it is a part of my heritage and who I am [...] I've been fighting for my last name my whole life.[46]

Upon launching her music career in the late 1990s, Aguilera was named as one of the artists who shaped the "Latin explosion" and contributed to the Latin pop boom in American music in early years of the 21st century.[47][48] In 1999, Los Angeles Times writer Agustin Gurza wrote that alongside other Spanish pop stars such as Shakira and Carlos Santana, "never before had so many Latinos spent so much time at the top of the pop charts in a single year".[48] People en Español author Jennifer Mota also noted that Aguilera "created music to cross borders" which in turn helped "music executives understand how big the Latin market really was".[49] POPline also noted that she "played a pivotal role in the expansion of Spanish-language music within today's American pop scene."[50]

Aguilera has since been referred to as one of the most prominent Latin artists in the entertainment industry.[51][52] In 2000, she released her first Spanish-language album Mi Reflejo to commercial success, which received the Latin Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Album,[53] and two Billboard Latin Music Awards.[54] In September 2018, the album was ranked number ten on the Billboard's Top 20 Latin Albums of All Time.[55] The album itself was best-selling Latin pop album of 2000 and spent 19 weeks atop the Billboard's Top Latin Albums chart, becoming one of the few albums to spend the most weeks at number-one.[56][57] In 2022, Aguilera released her second Spanish-language album Aguilera to generally favorable reviews and was nominated for ten Latin Grammy Awards, winning for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album.[58][59]

In 2024, her performance at the 1st Annual Latin Grammys was voted as the "biggest moment" in the awards history by Variety.[60]

### Controversial themes

[edit]

Aguilera has often incorporated controversial themes in her music which has often been praised.[61] Gerrick D. Kennedy writing for the Los Angeles Times opined that "for a generation who hit puberty during the great 2000 pop explosion, Aguilera was an essential voice with music that tackled [...] subject matters her contemporaries were shying away from".[62]

> The themes in her music portrays women as full human beings with subjectivity and renders women agency in owning their thoughts, speaking their mind, and practicing self-empowerment. This empowering cultural narrative acknowledges and empowers women to embrace their subjectivity, realize their value, and own their power in controlling their life.

—Chin Wai Wong from Hollins University on Aguilera's music themes.[63]

She has often included feminism and sexuality in her work and has often denounced social double standards.[61] Crack writer Emma Garland called Aguilera's 2002 album Stripped a "watershed feminist moment in 21st century pop".[61] She opined that the album "was instantly venerated by women and gays, and completely terrifying to straight men" which in turn "copped a lot of flack at the time for its sexualised imagery".[61] Journalists writing for Vice and The Guardian both analysed Stripped and found that Aguilera's use of sexual imagery has helped catalyze public discourse on the topic.[64][65] Garland went on to add that Stripped is "best measured by its cultural impact on those it was always intended for – a mass audience of young people who had spent much of the late 90s and early 00s being patronised by an industry that served them dynamic but spiritually void bubblegum pop".[61]

Aguilera has often defended the sex-positive movement.[66] Reviewing Stripped, Sophie Wilkinson from Vice opined that the album "explored nuanced articulations of sexual desires and fears while highlighting the social double standards", in addition to giving "any woman the confidence to take charge of her sexuality and ownership of her body".[67] Jennifer K. Armstrong, author of Sexy Feminism: A Girl's Guide to Love, Success, and Style (2013), similarly opined that Aguilera's music has "reject[ed] the double standards set forth by sexism and patriarchy".[68] Aguilera cofounded the American sexual wellness company Playground in 2022 and noted that "[she] just wants to keep progressing and pushing the conversations forward, making [sexuality] safe and also fun", hoping to "inspire other women with her own view of sex positivity".[69]

Lamar Dawson, a columnist from HuffPost, praised her feminist efforts in the music industry and recognized that "while [Aguilera] isn't the first pop star to place feminist rhetoric into pop culture, she led the charge at the beginning of the 21st century of influencing the next generation of impressionable teens who were too young for Janet [Jackson] and Madonna".[70] The Irish Times writer Shilpa Ganatra agreed saying that Aguilera was leading force of the third wave of feminism, going on to influence artists such as Miley Cyrus and Lady Gaga.[71][66] Her Campus writer Brooke Giles also cited Aguilera as the "OG feminist", noting that she set the "stage for women empowerment way before it became the popular trend in today's pop music".[72] Aguilera herself noted in an interview with The Irish Times that "[Stripped] was me stepping up and saying I was a woman that's proud of my sexuality. I was proud of my vulnerability. I was proud of the fact that I've fought my way through this industry".[71]

Another theme Aguilera has also advocated for is domestic violence, particularly throughout her music.[73] Mary Anne Donovan, author of Christina Aguilera: A Biography (2010), noted that she often "channeled her fear and sadness away from the abuse in her family to instead create the music that became her art and her livelihood".[74] Various critics have acknowledged Aguilera's experience with the topic during her childhood as a reason for incorporating this theme.[b] Donovan also opined that the theme influenced Aguilera's transition to adulthood and was a catalyst for her continual references of female empowerment in her music.[77][78] During an interview with Billboard in 2006, Aguilera noted that she feels a "responsibility to share some of these things that aren't kind of the brighter sides of my life" to advocate for "People [who] can relate" so that they may "not feel as alone in the circumstance".[79] Songs in which she sings about her own domestic violence experiences include "I'm OK",[80] "Oh Mother",[81] and "No Es Que Te Extrañe".[82]

Chin Wai Wong from Hollins University also observed topics such as romance, introspection of vulnerability, gratitude for support, and sexual liberation in Aguilera's music, representing "multi-dimensional aspects of life [and] different social responsibilities a woman experiences".[63] While critics noted the feminist message in her works, Aguilera was acknowledged for her "refusal to sanitize her own sexuality to meet either the norms of mainstream gender politics or mainline Feminism's resistance".[83] The Guardian journalist Hermione Hoby opined that she "incites a sisterly spirit of collaboration [and] is not shy of the odd feministic declaration herself".[84] Other themes addressed in her lyrics include self-respect, body image, and LGBT rights, in addition to "fighting for creative freedom and gender equality".[85]

### Videography

[edit]

Main article: Christina Aguilera videography

Aguilera's videography has been analysed by journalists for its impact on popular culture.[86] Billboard writer Stephen Daw noted that Aguilera's music video catalogue is an "often overlooked aspect of [her] career".[86] VH1 named Aguilera one of the greatest women of the video era.[87] In 2012, Aguilera's videographic collection and various looks used throughout her career were part of an exhibition by the National Museum of Women in the Arts aimed at illustrating "the essential roles women have played in moving rock and roll and American culture forward".[88][89] Hypebeast writer Jennifer Machin noted that her early music videos aesthetics, particularly for "Genie in a Bottle", is what helped maintain Aguilera's early innocent teen idol image.[90] The video was directed by Diane Martel and received some comparisons to Mariah Carey's video for "Dreamlover" which was also directed by Martel.[91] Her video for "What a Girl Wants" also found success, topping the TRL chart and was the most played video on MTV for six straight weeks.[92]

The music video for her song "Dirrty", directed by David LaChapelle, received high media coverage for its explicit nature being the introduction to Aguilera's "hyper-sexualized" new image.[86] The video was described as "one of the most controversial videos in pop music history".[93][2] Despite its generally negative media reaction, the video has been listed as one of the greatest music videos of all time.[c] Issy Beech from i-D opined that the video allowed for other music videos to be even more open including Nicki Minaj's "Anaconda" and Miley Cyrus' "Wrecking Ball", noting that it "paved the way for open sexuality from women in pop".[98] Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett, co-founder of The Vagenda, opined that the provocative dance routines in Aguilera's "Dirrty" was "empowering".[65] Aguilera's dance in the video has been cited as one of the forerunners of the slutdrop dance style.[99][100]

Aguilera's music video for "Beautiful", directed by Jonas Åkerlund, also received critical analysis, particularly for its scene of a gay kiss which has gone on to be considered one of the most important moments for LGBT culture.[101][102][103] "Beautiful" was also elected as one of the greatest music videos of the 21st century by Billboard.[95] In 2022, for the song's 20th anniversary, Aguilera released an updated version of the video with BBC writer Steven McIntosh noting that it highlighted "the impact of social media on young people's body image and mental health".[104] McIntosh noted the video's final metaphoric scene of a smartphone in a pool of blood.[104] ABC News writers Megan Stone and Angeline Jane Bernabe opined that the video explored messages for young girls and boys about the dangers of social media "with depictions of how girls are flooded with images of women with youthful faces and voluptuous bodies, while boys are encouraged to have the sculpted body of an action hero".[105] They added that the video also denounced the use of "liposuction, bodybuilding and other cosmetic surgeries" through the techniques of the children holding up their cameras to film what they are pressured to look like.[105]

I feel like my family knew I was insecure and people were trying to purposefully feed into this insecurity by not letting me have a choice in the people who were on stage with me. I appreciate you all being understanding with me as I figure out this new life I'm living !!! 📷: @carriedraw". Archived from the original on September 14, 2022.
