Aguilera has sold more than 25 million albums worldwide, scored four No. 1 singles on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and has won three Grammy Awards and a Latin Grammy Award.  Her third critically acclaimed album, Back to Basics, debuted at No. 1 on four of Billboard’s music charts in the United States and also hit No. 1 in 15 countries including the U.K., Canada, Japan, Germany, Australia, Ireland, Switzerland, Austria, Holland, Hong Kong, Korea, Singapore and Thailand.  The double-disc set, produced primarily by DJ Premier and Linda Perry, utilizes an orchestra, choir, string quartet and jazz horns to blend a vintage raw sound with modern hip-hop and soul flair.

Aguilera passionately supports domestic violence-related causes including the Women’s Center and Shelter of Greater Pittsburgh for battered women and children.  In addition, she is a major contributor to the fight against AIDS.
