July 31st, 1999!

Christina Aguilera got her first US #1 single with Genie In A Bottle! It’s been THAT LONG since that song came out? WOW.

I may or may not remember dancing to it. 🤣

The song was also #1 in the UK.

Genie In A Bottle spent 5 weeks at #1 on the US charts and Christina Aguilera won Best New Artist at The Grammys!
