The audience can watch the award ceremony on NBC and E!, where Becky G is going to present the Music Icon Award to Christina Aguilera

The announcement was made by NBC on Wednesday, and with Christina Aguilera receiving the Music Icon Award, she will become the first-ever to receive the honor in history. Christina Aguilera will also perform a medley of her greatest hits, culminating with music from her long-awaited second Spanish-language album, "Pa Mis Muchachas," which is her first Spanish-language album since "Mi Reflejo" in 2000.

Christina spoke about her new album to People and shared, "This album is a coming-full-circle moment for me. It's been something I've wanted to do for so many years. I have an amazing team behind me that's so supportive. I've been in music for a really long time, but there's nothing like being around Latin musicians and artists. The energy they bring to the table, the love and the passion they just bring and exude. I actually feel re-inspired by music all over again, making this album. "

The singer explained that the songs she chose for her album will delve deeper into her Latin roots and explore a variety of classic styles, serving as a tribute to her roots and the history of music. She added, "You'll hear a lot of those influences in this record, as well as fresh-sounding music." "Pa Mis Muchachas" is her first full-length album after "Mi Reflejo," which came out in 2000.

Speaking about her first album, Christina said, "When I listened to my first Spanish record, I fell in love with it, and I'm thankful for it. I won a Latin Grammy with it, but I listen to the record 20 years later, and I'm like, "Oh, cute, that was baby Christina! It was like her voice before it fully matured, and so now things are a lot deeper in context and the vocal capabilities that I'm using now, having had all the experience in the business that I have, so it is tapping into new things for me and with a much deeper respect and appreciation for where I'm at now as a grown woman. I'm singing with deeper passion, love, respect, and experience than I ever have before. "

Jen Neal of NBC said about honoring Christina Aguilera with Music Icon Award, during a press release, "There is a reason Christina Aguilera is referred to as' the voice of our generation.' She not only has an extraordinary voice, but also, as a creator, produces music that evokes true emotion and resonates across so many demographics. Christina is an idol, and we cannot wait to celebrate her successes and present her with the inaugural 'Music Icon' award."
