Christina Milian (/ˌmɪliˈɑːn/ MIL-ee-AHN, née Flores; born September 26, 1981)^[1] is an American singer, songwriter, actress, and entrepreneur. Following a number of minor television and film roles in the late nineties, Milian made her recording debut on American rapper Ja Rule's 2000 single, "Between Me and You", which peaked at number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Under Island Records, she released her 2001 debut single "AM to PM", which became a US Billboard Hot 100 top 40 single.^[2] In 2002, she performed the theme song "Call Me, Beep Me!", for the Disney Channel animated series Kim Possible. Following a series of delays, her first album, Christina Milian, was only released internationally in 2002, where it charted moderately. Her second album, It's About Time (2004), spawned the number 5 Billboard Hot 100 hit "Dip It Low" (featuring Fabolous). Her third album, So Amazin' (2006) yielded the US top 40 single, "Say I" (featuring Jeezy). Milian experienced particular success in the UK, where each of her singles released under Island charted within the top 10. She parted ways with Island following the release of So Amazin' and independently released her first extended play, 4U, in 2015.

As an actress, her first lead film role was in Love Don't Cost a Thing (2003). She subsequently had lead roles in the films Be Cool (2005), Pulse (2006), and in the direct-to-DVD film Bring It On: Fight to the Finish (2009). Milian also starred in the ABC Family Original Movie Christmas Cupid (2010). From 2015 to 2016, she starred in the sitcom Grandfathered. Milian also co-founded and co-owns Beignet Box, a dessert shop in the Los Angeles area.^[3][4][5]
