Generation Next

An array of pop sensations who burst into the music industry a decade ago and have upheld their career success ever since, have turned the big 3-0 in the past few months. Fl@unt fondly looks upon these stars as the 21ST CENTURY ICONIC MUSIC GENERATION.

To celebrate the benchmark birthdays of these stars Fl@unt investigates how far they have come...

JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE - turned 30 on 31st January



Famous for his successful transition from boy-band member to established urban solo artist, JT's unfading cheekily handsome looks keeps him solidly popular with female fans everywhere. In recent years, movies have become the Tennessee native's main focus and he's not half bad in the acting game. Having said this - bring back the music JT! Fl@unt misses your sexy vocals.

ALICIA KEYS - turned 30 on 25th January

An artist that started with no gimmicks, no distractions, just a simple honest vocal performance accompanied by her limitless piano skills. This New York lady introduced herself back in 2001 as she intended to remain - her own artist. Winning countless Grammys after her first year of success, we knew the best was yet to come. Now grown into a naturally beautiful graceful woman with husband and child, Ms Keys has come a long way.

CHRISTINA AGUILERA - turned 30 on 18th December 2010

This sassy singer sure has had a bumpy ride musically and personally in the last year. Her music success has been sustained through strong image - from dirty girl to glam queen to electro diva. This woman has portrayed every part there is to play but let this not distract us from her undeniable voice. Settling for a curvier classy look of the matured woman nowadays, Ms Aguilera has found and image comfortable and hopefully closer to the real Christina.

BEYONCE - turning 30 4th September 2011

Part of the biggest girlband in the world and now the most famous, admirable musician of this time - Beyonce has been rightly marked into iconic status due to her creative music ability. With a good business head and sensible life choices, this woman can not be stopped.

BRITNEY SPEARS - turning 30 2nd December 2011

We've seen her grow up, get married, have children and make some major mistakes along the way but she's only human. She remains iconic due to being the first solo artist leading the music scene at the beginning of the 21st century with two platinum albums and world tours under her belt before the decade had truly started - all at the tender age of 19. Ms Spears is the THE ultimate pop icon who paved the way for superstars previously mentioned to make their mark on music.
