Genie in a Bottle

Christina Aguilera’s debut single in 1999 was pure pop magic. “Genie in a Bottle” wasted no time hitting #1, introducing the world to her powerhouse vocals. With its sultry metaphor about “rubbing the right way” and a catchy dance-pop beat, the song captured the late-’90s teen-pop spirit. It made the former Mouseketeer an overnight star and helped pave the way for pop’s new millennium divas.
