 Rested Aguilera Working On Two New Albums | Type: Internet Article |
| | Rested Aguilera Working On Two New Albums | Jun 29, 2004 | by Jonathan Cohen
Pop diva Christina Aguilera, who canceled her summer tour in order to "rest her pipes," says she's concurrently working on two new albums, one of which is her second Spanish-language set.
"I've been writing and recording and putting my heart and soul into this next vision that I have for the next album," Aguilera says in a recorded message to fans posted last week on her official Web site. "And I'm also working on my next Spanish album, to follow-up to my first one which was many years ago it seems like to me, maybe to you, too."
Aguilera last released the pop set "Stripped" (RCA) in November 2002. It debuted at No. 2 on The Billboard 200 and has sold 3.7 million copies in the United States, according to SoundScan. Her first Spanish language album, 2000's "Mi Reflejo," bowed at No. 1 on Billboard's Top Latin Albums chart and No. 27 on The Billboard 200 and has sold 459,000 copies.
What the new albums will sound like is anyone's guess, and Aguilera gives few clues in her message. "I'm really excited about these projects. I've been kind of flirting with old '20s, '30s, '40s looks and styles and movies and old pin-ups," she says. "I'm flirting with kind of this old Hollywood feel and whatnot."
In that vein, she also notes she's contemplating a career move to the silver screen, but will wait until the right project comes along. "I'm not just going to do a movie to do a movie," she says. "It has to be right. It has to be the right role, I have to feel the right character. It has to be something meaty and juicy that I can sink my teeth into."
Although Aguilera won't be on the road this summer, she has scheduled a July 10 appearance during the six-day Elements production in Pittsburgh. She will headline the 10:30 p.m.-6:30 a.m. "main event," with performances by Amber and DJs Tony Moran and Tony Ruiz and others scheduled. The Elements Web site also promises professional dancers, aerialists, acrobats, fire performers and "percussionists suspended in mid-air."
While Aguilera laments not being able to tour, she asserts that it was the right decision. "Since you know I sing everything top to bottom live, you know, it's a lot of hard work," she says. "So, I want to make sure that my pipes are in top condition when I do that... so that led to me having to cancel the tour, because I have to be super, super-positive that everything is good with my pipes." |
