Christina wins World Music Award

Christina won the World Music Award for the World's Best-Selling Latin Female Artist. She and Ricky Martin (also a winner) performed their worldwide Number 1 single, 'Nobody Wants To Be Lonely.' And the world media got wind of Christina's amazing new look, most notably the German press. The German network RTL aired a review of the star-studded night, and of course featured Christina. She also mentioned it was her first time in Monaco and that she was excited about performing.
