Christine Milton is a Danish pop singer, songwriter and professional dancer. She was one of the participants in the second series of Denmark's popular Popstars series.

She is the original singer behind Jamelia's international hit single "Superstar", which was written and produced by Danish producers Cutfather & Joe and Remee in 2003. It spent seven weeks at number one on the official Danish singles chart, sold over 12,000 copies, and gave Milton her very first gold and platinum record.
In 2004 she co-hosted the annual Danish MGP, a junior singing competition, on DR1.
On 13 April 2004, Christine released her debut album Friday. Written and produced by the Swedish producers Ghost (Ulf Lindström & Johan Ekhé) and Danish producers Cutfather & Joe and Remee, the album was a #1 success in Denmark. It also spawned three further singles, "Whicketywhack (I Ain't Coming Back)", "Shine On" and "So Addictive".
In 2005 she provided the voice dubbing for one of the characters in the Danish release of the adventure/comedy film Racing Stripes.
