Christina Milian | Christina Milian
Good luck keeping up with Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter-actress-fashion entrepreneur and reality TV star Christina Milian.
Since the release of her 2001 self-titled Def Jam breakthrough album, which featured the hits "AM to PM" and "When You Look at Me," this New Jersey-born whirlwind has toured with Usher, recorded with Kanye, starred opposite John Travolta and Uma Thurman in "Be Cool," founded her own casual clothing line and tangoed with Mark Ballas on "Dancing With the Stars."
Along the way, she even managed to add to the family, giving birth to daughter Violet with then-husband The-Dream in 2010.
This year, Milian launched her own E! reality TV show, "Christina Milian Turned Up," sharing her search for love and happiness "docu-soap" style with her Cuban-American mother and sisters.
Find out what Milian has to say about life and money.
As a successful young hyphenate, which of your endeavors shows the real you?
I have a serious love for both music and fashion, so I wouldn't choose just one. With my clothing line "We Are Pop Culture," I get to really show my fashionable side and my personality with the way that I design.
I'm kind of a tomboy. I like casualwear and streetwear, but I like to do it with a feminine twist. I feel like fashion is a great way to express yourself. As far as music goes, writing my music and performing, it's very personal for me, and I love to be vulnerable and get myself to my fans because that's what music is all about.
What's guaranteed to make you laugh?
I love looking at memes on social media. They always make me laugh. My family and I share a lot of them between each other in our group chats.
When it comes to money, are you a tightwad, a free spender or somewhere in between?
I am between tightwad and free spender. But I like to spend wisely, mostly on investments that I feel will make the money in the long run.
I believe when I spend my money that it's going to come back to me double. Or, I just have faith that whatever I'm spending on is what's going to make me money in the future. I don't want to overspend, and I do pay attention to my funds. I've learned to keep a better grasp on giving out money for things or people that might not be appreciative.
What influences helped define your creative approach?
I think just looking up to people like P. Diddy, Dr. Dre, JLo, Jessica Simpson, and reading their interviews about how they became the moguls they are today has inspired me. I take my own approach on things based on that and have become my own entrepreneur, and I'm having fun doing what I love.
What will you teach your daughter, Violet, about money and the pursuit of happiness?
I will teach my daughter to save her money and to invest her money, especially in things that she is passionate about.
I teach her that money doesn't grow on trees so you have to work hard. But money shouldn't be your only incentive. I think the true label of success is happiness, so find what makes you happy, smile, laugh. Make that your focus and the money will follow.
