Early Life and Career Beginnings
Christine Flores, better known as Christina Milian, was born in Jersey City, New Jersey, on September 26, 1981. Her parents, Don Flores and Carmen Milian, raised her in Waldorf, Maryland, along with her two younger sisters. Milian gets part of her stage name from her mother's maiden name; she changed her name in the hopes of landing a broader range of roles and opportunities. By as early as age nine, Milian was auditioning and landing roles for things like Wendy's commercials. When she was thirteen, her mother took her and her sisters and moved to Los Angeles, leaving her father in Maryland. Her parents divorced soon after.
In Los Angeles, Milian's dream was to become an actress. She managed to land some jobs, such as being a host for the series "Movie Surfers" on the Disney Channel, but after meeting producer Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins because they lived in the same apartment complex, she began spending more time recording music and meeting people in the recording industry.
