In 1990, she began her musical career as a backing vocalist, singing back-up vocals on pop star [[Tiffany Darwish|Tiffany]]'s album ''[[New Inside]]''. In 1991, she featured in the music video for "My Fallen Angel" by Dominican singer [[Coro (singer)|Coro]]. In 1992, she gained her first break as a solo singer on [[Black Entertainment Television|BET]]'s television series ''[[ComicView]]'', performing "[[Get Here]]".<ref>{{cite tweet|user=AnastaciaMusic|author=Anastacia|number=53749838063472640|date=April 1, 2011|title=Wow so true.

In 1993, she moved to [[Los Angeles]] to record the song "One More Chance" for producer OG Pierce, but it did not result in a record deal. That same year, she recorded a collaboration with [[David Morales]] titled "Forever Luv". Throughout the mid-1990s, producers expressed interest in her voice's distinctive tone, but Anastacia was often told that "her sound just didn't quite fit into any category".<ref name="TheAge2002" /> In 1994, she provided backing vocals on [[Jamie Foxx]]'s debut album ''[[Peep This]]''. In 1995, she sang back-up on [[Paula Abdul]]'s third studio album ''[[Head over Heels (Paula Abdul album)|Head Over Heels]]'' and [[Paulina Rubio]]'s fourth album ''[[Planeta Paulina (Paulina Rubio album)|Planeta Paulina]]''.
By 1997, Anastacia had joined a band called ''The Kraze'', remaining with them until 1999.

===1998–2001: ''Not That Kind''===
In 1998, Anastacia was unemployed after being fired from a beauty salon for "being too loud", and she was disheartened after years of setbacks in the music industry.<ref name="TheAge2002" /> She was considering a career shift to [[developmental psychology|child psychology]].<ref name="TheAge2002" /> Encouraged by Lisa Braude, who later became her manager, Anastacia auditioned for MTV's talent show ''[[The Cut (1998 TV series)|The Cut]]'' in 1998. She became one of the ten finalists, performing her original song "[[Not That Kind (song)|Not That Kind]]". Her performance on the show, which was hosted by rapper [[Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes]], garnered interest from record labels.<ref name="Times 2005" /> Though she did not win the competition, she impressed prominent artists such as [[Elton John]] and [[Michael Jackson]], as well as judges [[David Foster]] and [[Faith Evans]]. In March 1999, Anastacia signed a record deal with [[Daylight Records]], a custom label under [[Sony Music Entertainment]]'s [[Epic Records]].
With the support of top American producers and songwriters, Anastacia released her debut album, ''[[Not That Kind]]'', on June 13, 2000. The album reached the top ten in eight countries across Europe, the United States, and Asia, and achieved four-times platinum status in Europe and triple platinum in Australia.<ref name="Australian Certifications 2000">{{cite web|url=http://www.aria.com.au/pages/aria-charts-accreditations-albums-2000.htm |title=Australian Certifications 2000 |publisher=[[Australian Recording Industry Association|ARIA]] |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110611211848/http://www.aria.com.au/pages/aria-charts-accreditations-albums-2000.htm |archive-date=June 11, 2011 }}</ref>

===2001–2006: ''Freak of Nature'', breast cancer diagnosis, ''Anastacia'' and ''Pieces of a Dream''===
[[File:Anastacia concert.jpg|thumb|left|Anastacia performing live in 2005]]
Anastacia's second album, ''[[Freak of Nature]]'', released in November 2001, achieved success in the UK, where it went triple platinum, and was also a hit throughout continental Europe; however, it did not match the success of her international debut. The first single released was "[[Paid My Dues]]". The song became an overall hit in 2001, peaking in Denmark, Italy, Norway, and Switzerland, and reaching the top ten in several other mainland European countries. The second single, released in 2002, "[[One Day in Your Life (Anastacia song)|One Day in Your Life]]", reached number eleven in the UK and the top ten in many European countries. The next single, "[[Why'd You Lie to Me]]", reached the top thirty in the UK. "[[You'll Never Be Alone]]", the fourth single, reached number twenty-eight on the [[Adult Contemporary (chart)|Adult Contemporary]] chart in the U.S. The album was released in the United States in May 2002. Soon after, she released a double-disc edition featuring two bonus hits, remixes for three of the tracks on the album, and two live tracks taken from a Japan gig performed on September 13, 2002. ''[[People (magazine)|People]]'' reviewed her album, writing, "Anastacia is most successful when she shifts gears on more reflective, folk-tinged pop-rock tunes such as 'Overdue Goodbye' and 'How Come the World Won't Stop,' on which her more nuanced vocals flow naturally."<ref>{{Cite web|date=June 24, 2002|title=Picks and Pans Review: Freak of Nature|url=https://people.com/archive/picks-and-pans-review-freak-of-nature-vol-57-no-24/|access-date=December 13, 2021|website=people.com|language=en}}</ref>
Anastacia joined [[Celine Dion]], [[Shakira]], [[Cher]], [[Mary J.

''Freak of Nature'' sold seven million copies.<ref name="Anastacia bio"/>
In January 2003, Anastacia decided to undergo a [[breast reduction]] due to back strain. From a routine [[mammography|mammogram]] conducted for the surgery, she discovered that she had [[breast cancer]].<ref>{{Cite web|date=October 2, 2013|first=Wade|last=Rouse|title=Anastacia Recovering from Double Mastectomy|url=https://people.com/celebrity/anastacia-recovering-from-double-mastectomy/|access-date=December 13, 2021|website=people.com|language=en}}</ref> She immediately had surgery and [[radiation therapy|radiotherapy]].<ref>{{cite news|title=Pop singer Anastacia undergoes cancer surgery|url=http://badgerherald.com/artsetc/2003/03/04/pop_singer_anastacia.php|access-date=August 22, 2013|newspaper=The Badger Herald|date=March 4, 2003|agency=Reuters|___location=Los Angeles|archive-date=March 9, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120309073956/http://badgerherald.com/artsetc/2003/03/04/pop_singer_anastacia.php|url-status=dead}}</ref> Anastacia subsequently established the Anastacia Fund to promote awareness of breast cancer among younger women.<ref name="Times 2005">{{cite web|last=Barrell|first=Tony|title=The trials of Anastacia|url=http://www.thesundaytimes.co.uk/sto/style/article152070.ece|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140527214653/http://www.thesundaytimes.co.uk/sto/style/article152070.ece|url-status=dead|archive-date=May 27, 2014|work=[[The Sunday Times]]|access-date=August 22, 2013|date=October 23, 2005}} {{subscription required|s}}</ref> She has attributed her health scare as an inspiration for her third album. According to an interview she gave in 2005 on the British music station [[The Box (UK and Ireland)|The Box]], her voice lost its power and she became unable to record, so she spent a long time writing and trying to create a sound with which she could finally be happy.
As stated on the Australian talk show ''[[Rove (TV series)|Rove]]'' in 2004, Anastacia wanted to add more edge to her vocals, as she felt something was missing from her previous work. She brought in [[Rock music|rock]] instruments to create a new atmosphere. She felt that she needed more funkiness and [[Pop music|pop]] but not too much edge. Out of this came a new sound she described as sprock—a combination of [[soul music|soul]], pop, and rock. She named the album after herself. Anastacia entered record studios in September 2003 to begin recording the album, working with [[Glen Ballard]], [[Dallas Austin]], and [[David A. Stewart]] for release in 2004. On the album, Anastacia also collaborated with [[P.O.D.]] lead singer [[Sonny Sandoval]] on the socially conscious track "I Do".
The first single, released in March, was "[[Left Outside Alone]]", which marked a change in direction for Anastacia. It was one of the biggest songs of 2004 in Europe, reaching number one in Austria, Italy, Spain, and Switzerland; number two in Denmark, Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands, and Norway; and number three in the United Kingdom and Hungary. Overall, the song remained at number one on the European ''Billboard'' singles chart for 15 weeks.<ref name="anastacia.com">[http://www.anastacia.com/infos/view/bio Anastacia bio] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120108043930/http://www.anastacia.com/infos/view/bio |date=January 8, 2012}} (December 2011)</ref> The song also topped the Australian charts, becoming Anastacia's second number one in the country, where it went on to become the second-biggest-selling single of 2004.
''[[Anastacia (album)|Anastacia]]'' quickly became her most successful album to date, earning her a third consecutive triple platinum certification in the UK and reaching the top of the national charts in Ireland, the Netherlands, Australia, Greece, Germany, and other countries. Unlike her first two albums, which were released in her homeland of America, ''Anastacia'' was not released there, despite being scheduled for release on three occasions. "Left Outside Alone" was released twice but failed to receive heavy airplay.<ref name="BiographyChannel"/> It only gained sporadic airplay on the Adult Contemporary format. Again, it sparked Rhythmic/Dance format airplay, and the dance mix of "Left Outside Alone" peaked at number five on the Hot Dance Club Play chart. After the original version of "Left Outside Alone" failed to catch on due to lukewarm promotion, particularly on radio, the album was postponed and eventually cancelled after the release date of August 30, 2005, passed—only to be released digitally in the US years later.
Anastacia released three further internationally successful singles: "[[Sick and Tired (Anastacia song)|Sick and Tired]]" (which gave her another number one in Spain and another UK top five single), "[[Welcome to My Truth]]" (her best-selling hit in Spain), and the ballad "[[Heavy on My Heart]]", sales of which went towards the Anastacia Fund, her charitable organization providing [[research funding]] for breast cancer.
[[File:Heavy Rotation 3.jpg|thumb|Anastacia performing live in 2005|254x254px]]A limited edition of her self-titled album was released with a bonus [[DVD]], poster, and slipcase. The DVD included a making-of documentary, footage from her 2002 Europe Promo Tour, and a photo gallery. From September 2004 to August 2005, Anastacia embarked on the [[Live at Last Tour]]. In 2005, the tour was renamed the Encore Tour. The tour became the second most popular tour of 2005, behind only [[U2]]'s [[Vertigo Tour]].<ref name="anastacia.com"/>
In late 2005, she released her first greatest hits collection, titled ''[[Pieces of a Dream (Anastacia album)|Pieces of a Dream]]'', named after a track of the same name. The album spawned the hit singles "[[Pieces of a Dream (Anastacia song)|Pieces of a Dream]]", which peaked at number one in Spain, and the duet with [[Eros Ramazzotti]], "[[I Belong to You (Il Ritmo della Passione)]]", which was a number one hit in Germany, Hungary, Italy, and Switzerland, and a hit throughout continental Europe. Even though [[Sony BMG]] required her to release this collection, Anastacia has said that she is happy it was created, as it serves as a "story book" or summary of the first six years of her career.
In 2006, she was recognized for worldwide sales of over 20 million copies of her first three albums,<ref name="JME award">{{cite web|title=Anastacia, 20 million worldwide sales award |url=http://jmenternational.com/work/awards/2005/anastacia/ |work=JM Enternational |access-date=August 22, 2013 |date=November 2, 2005 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131004223432/http://jmenternational.com/work/awards/2005/anastacia/ |archive-date=October 4, 2013 }}</ref> with ''Anastacia'' reaching eight million copies sold.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.ev-transfer.com/en/anastacia-starlite-festival-in-marbel|title=Anastacia - Starlite Festival in Marbella|website=Ev-transfer.com|access-date=March 29, 2025}}</ref>
Not long after the release of "I Belong to You (Il Ritmo Della Passione)", Anastacia released her first live [[DVD]], ''[[Live at Last (Anastacia video)|Live at Last]]'', on March 27, 2006, in Europe. The DVD features footage from concerts in [[Berlin]] and [[Munich]]. It includes music videos for her four singles: "Left Outside Alone", "[[Everything Burns]]", "Pieces of a Dream", and "I Belong to You (Il Ritmo Della Passione)", as well as five alternative videos—"I Do", "Rearview", "Seasons Change", "Underground Army", and "[[Time (Anastacia song)|Time]]"—from her self-titled album, and a documentary about the tour.
Soon after the DVD's release, Anastacia took a break from the music industry and began focusing on her growing fashion line with the German brand [[s.Oliver]], launching a clothing collection called "Anastacia by s.Oliver" in 2006, which was sold at 550 stores worldwide.<ref>{{cite web |title=anastaciabysoliver.com |url=http://www.anastaciabysoliver.com/ |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130518174822/http://anastaciabysoliver.com/ |archive-date=May 18, 2013 |access-date=February 21, 2013 |publisher=anastaciabysoliver.com}}</ref> A limited-edition [[Compact disc|CD]] named "Welcome to My Style" was also available for free to customers who spent 60 euros or more on the clothing in November.

Anastacia performed at the memorial [[Concert for Diana]] on July 1, 2007, which would have been [[Diana, Princess of Wales|Princess Diana]]'s forty-sixth birthday. This was one of her first major appearances since she took a break from the industry. She opened the medley section of the show and sang a rendition of "[[Superstar (Jesus Christ Superstar song)|Superstar]]", from [[Andrew Lloyd Webber]]'s ''[[Jesus Christ Superstar]]'', with a [[gospel music|gospel]] chorus behind her.
In August 2007, a video was posted on the "Anastacia by S. Oliver" website. During the video, when Anastacia was asked about her future plans, she confirmed that she was working on an album as well as the clothing line. A specific release month or title was not mentioned.<ref>{{cite web|title=August 2007 video on the Anastacia section of the "Anastacia by s oliver" website|url=http://www.anastaciabysoliver.com/|publisher=Anastaciabysoliver.com|access-date=February 21, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130518174822/http://anastaciabysoliver.com/|archive-date=May 18, 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref> In November 2007, her biography on the official Anastacia website<ref name=OfficialBio>[http://www.anastacia.com/bio.html Biography page] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071205025217/http://www.anastacia.com/bio.html |date=December 5, 2007 }} Official Anastacia website.</ref> was updated to say there would be an album in 2008, with a tour to follow. During this period, Anastacia left Sony and moved to [[Mercury Records|Mercury]]. In an interview for the UK breakfast show ''[[This Morning (TV programme)|This Morning]]'', she said that [[David Massey (music executive)|David Massey]]'s move from Sony to Mercury was key to her own label change because Massey had originally signed her and had been involved in all of her previous albums.{{Citation needed|date=November 2023}}

On July 24, Anastacia announced that her fourth studio album, ''[[Heavy Rotation (Anastacia album)|Heavy Rotation]]'', would be released in Europe and Asia on October 27, 2008 (and elsewhere in 2009). The album featured collaborations with producers [[Ne-Yo]], The Heavyweights, [[Lester Mendez]], [[J.R. Rotem]], and [[Rodney Jerkins]], departing from the pop rock sound of her previous material. The album's first single, "[[I Can Feel You]]", began playing in some radio markets on August 25, 2008.<ref name="MTVAsia0808">[http://www.mtvasia.com/News/200808/21016468.html Anastacia Is Back With Fourth Studio Album 'Heavy Rotation'] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090319021444/http://www.mtvasia.com/News/200808/21016468.html |date=March 19, 2009 }}.

Her fourth studio album proved less successful; its singles failed to reach the top 40 in her most commercially successful country, the UK. Anastacia remained positive, stating that other artists have faced similar challenges when changing record labels, also attributing the lack of success to the [[Great Recession|worldwide economic crisis]] and the label's decision to shift her sound from her own "sprock" style on the previous record to a more "urban" feel. In later years, Anastacia regretted the change in sound, citing personal problems that led to a creative [[Selling out|sell-out]]. Despite the lack of commercial success, the album was ranked number ten on ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' magazine's online "Readers' Poll: 10 Best Albums of 2008". In 2009, the [[Women's World Award]] presented Anastacia with the World Artist Award, recognising the singer's success and ongoing positive influence.{{Citation needed|date=November 2023}}
