Born in Bangkok to Spanish-Filipino and French parents, Christina Aguilar didn't just join her city's diverse music scene—she took it over. Aguilar's 1990 debut, Ninja, smashed records. By year's end, she was the first female singer to sell a million records in Thailand. Late '90s work embraced a more playful, Spice Girls-influenced, sugar-rush pop sound that helped her continue to rule the pop charts into the new millennium, tweaking her catchy, club-ready songs with each release. She's largely been quiet since 2007's more minimalist C. Space, but this queen remains firmly on her throne.
