Christina Aguilera Chooses Music Over Movies

While she maybe playing assistant on Billboard’s current #1 song ‘Moves Like Jagger’, it appears Christina Aguilera is ready to move back into the spotlight on her own.  Aside from scoring a second season on top-rated talent show ‘The Voice’, the ‘I Turn To You’ belter is turning up the heat on her yet-titled, forthcoming project – the successor to 2010’s ‘Bionic’.

Speaking with Hello! magazine, the 30-year-old songstress spoke on a number of topics including her new album and if fans can soon expect another foray into film.  Find out her thoughts after the jump:

On new album:

“I’m in the studio now working on my next album and I’m writing so much. I’ve been inspired by a lot over the past year, the experiences I’ve had, the good, the bad, the highs, the lows – it will all be apparent in the lyrics.  The mood of the album will be very introspective, heartfelt and deep rooted.”

On new movie roles:

“I’m always reading scripts. ‘Burlesque’ was something that came to my door that I was truly inspired to do. It was the right time and place for me to dive into that world I’ve always been inspired by.  But I’m not going to do back-to-back movies just to do them. Music is always my first love and where my time and attention will remain. Film is something that will be on my mind and I am looking for the next project.”

(source)

******

While ‘Burlesque’ was not a complete bomb at theatres, the mixed reception was indication that maybe movies aren’t Christina’s lane.  Unfortunately, so many other music stars and starlets don’t take the same hint.  Be that as it may, here’s hoping the ‘Bionic’ follow-up boasts better material and sees the songstress some solo chart success.  With seeming reignited interest, given the response to ‘Jagger’, maybe a buzz single should be thrown out to test the waters.

The success of such would definitely yield proof of her existent star power and combat the claims of those who feel her contribution to ‘Jagger’ wasn’t partly what fueled its success.

    I know this sounds horrible, but as long as Christina tones up, I don’t care what she does.

  6. THEMAN September 18, 2011

  8. THEMAN September 18, 2011

    Woopz wrong post ^. She’ll make some great music.

  9. #1QueenGaga September 18, 2011

    She’s just not that interesting anymore. Boring personality with a bitchy attitude. No creativity whatsoever. Yeah she has a powerful voice but she doesn’t know how to use it. Her new album….DEAD ON ARRIVAL.

  10. Courtney September 18, 2011

    more singers should take this view most singers that act endup a punchline there’s only been about a dozen ever nominated for an acting oscar Bing Crosby Judy Garland Frank Sinatra Barbara Streisand Liza Minnelli Diana Ross Bette Midler Cher Jennifer Hudson

  11. Crave12 September 18, 2011

    christina is that kinda artist that needs to go through some things to create great music and from the terribly recieved album to the superbowl flub to the divorce i kno shes gna bear her soul and NO ONE can touch christina when shes in that zone because stripped is still one of the best pop albums of the 2000s

  12. Vicki September 18, 2011

    @Crave12 AMEN

  13. THE UNIVERSITY OF GAGA (IS†ANN4GAGA) September 18, 2011

  17. Legendtina4life(Queentina Returns to #1) September 18, 2011

    Sam, you stole this story from ASAP!!

    @Charmed
    Burlesque got 3 Golden Globe Nominations so ——->

    @#1QueenGaGa
    You shouldnt criticise anyone’s creativity when your fave has zero of her own.

  18. Legendtina4life(Queentina Returns to #1) September 18, 2011

    Im stilling that pic of Chrissy

  19. LTM September 18, 2011

    lol yeah, @ASAP posted this on the Rihanna post

  20. LTM September 18, 2011

    @F*** TRANDY!!! MONICASLAYS
    what the hell are you trying to say?

  21. Levi Loves Ciara September 18, 2011

    Wow. Christina looks HOT!!! Is this a recent picture? She looks great!!

  22. THE UNIVERSITY OF GAGA (IS†ANN4GAGA) September 18, 2011

    @LTM

    Ignore @Monicaslays…There is BAD GRAMMAR and spelling riddled throughout the posts,AND( Like Lacefronce is wih Beyonce) She is OBSESSED with Brandy.

    But what I got from the comments was that she liked Xtina until “Stripped”?

  23. King B September 18, 2011

    All I want from her is a great album that will kick ass.

    And can the childish Gaga stans not try it tonight? You guys are always boo-hooing when haters invade your fave’s posts, but you’re no better yourselves.

  24. Hot_Acid September 18, 2011

    I dont care… As long as she releases an album, I am happy with that…

    And for the CaCa stans that saying Xtina has no originality…. *roll on the floor laugh while trying to squeeze my stomach*… Plagarism this way has proved it all… Face it, CaCa is the one that is going down. After the boosting of VMA, your fav song climbed to a higher position and only to fell out. Only 1 of her singles has reached no.1 in a 99 cent, 1 million first selling album *roll eyes*. Katy Perry and Rihanna beat her ass outta that department. Even Bee who has no top 10 single is beating her ass in total album sales with regular, non-discounted price.

    I wonder what CaCa gonna do next? 2 girls 1 cup inspired video? *laugh*

  25. #1QueenGaga September 18, 2011

    Born This Way……6 million worldwide b******!!!!! So sit the f*** back down!! lol

  26. Pop Royalty (RUDE BOY) September 18, 2011

    This post is filled with some of the dumbest ppl I have ever seen !

    Keep it about F****** XTINA ! WHY gaga’s name was thrown ?! 😯

    Btw , GAGA has no lots of stans here ” as far as I know ” it’s only @ISTAN4GAGA and @LACEFRONCE !

    beside ppl like @ FAME KILLS to be specific ! So gaga stan(s) here need to IGNORE the TROUBLE MAKERS !
    can we GROW UP ?!

  27. SelenaFabulousGomez September 18, 2011

    Im excited for new material

  28. SelenaFabulousGomez September 18, 2011

    @#1QueenGaGa
    Umm try 4.2million

  29. LTM September 18, 2011

    @IStann4GaGa
    lmao!! you have a gift of deciphering nonsense

  30. Small_Angel September 18, 2011

    I have high hopes for xtina.. Burlesque wasn’t a big hit.. but the film alone eraned around 100 million dollars sale worldwide. Plus number 1 soundtrack and million selling DVD copy.

    I haven’t see any prove that xtina is such a b**** as what the media is trying to make her look like. but with all that what have been said to her, haters, media I think she needs to do something about it.

    Im gonna buy her CD. I still believe in her talent and creativity.

    To all Gaga Fan pleasejust stay as Gaga fan.. she is doing great.. so please…

  31. Legendtina4life(Queentina Returns to #1) September 18, 2011

    *stealing* My spelling has been off this weekend

  32. LTM September 18, 2011

    to continue the conversation from the Rihanna post; I think Christina is going to keep this era natural and raw, much like the Stripped era. the new album will probably be mainly ballads, but I think she’ll incorperate up-tiempos like Moves Like Jagger on the album. Christina has said she is inspired by things around her, and up-tiempo songs rule the radio

  33. LTM September 18, 2011

    if she does release a buzz track, it should be a up=tiempo catchy song, but not too generic. she needs a song of her own to grab peoples attention and to keep them interested

  34. Legendtina4life(Queentina Returns to #1) September 18, 2011

    @LTM
    I think its going to be mostly power ballads with mid-tiempos like Lift Me Up. I dont think she’ll have any songs like MLJ on the new album. Shes confirmed her recent divorce will be the inspiration, and a catchy heartbreak song from Xtina is unlikely.

  35. Slaydele Slay$ha & R.I.P Amy Slayhouse September 18, 2011

    Slaytina returns 😀

  36. THE UNIVERSITY OF GAGA (IS†ANN4GAGA) September 18, 2011

    @LTM?Legendtina

    LOLOL How’s Billboard’s comments section doing???

  37. LTM September 18, 2011

    @Legendtina
    well rumors are saying shes working with Dr.Luke, Scot Scortch, and Max Martin who specialize in those type songs. theres also rumors that it will be rock themed or Adele inspired. who knows…

  38. LTM September 18, 2011

    @IStann4GaGa
    Billboard is a mess!! I cant stand anyone there, except Dollar$ign$kills, but I rarely see her comment

  39. THE UNIVERSITY OF GAGA (IS†ANN4GAGA) September 18, 2011

    @LTM

    Oh,I saw some of the people @Legendtina replied to me here….smh.

    anyway,I saw a delusional Katy stan on Gagadaily….Are there any delusional Gaga stans on katy’s fansite???

  40. Legendtina4life(Queentina Returns to #1) September 18, 2011

    @IStann4GaGa
    Still a hot mess. That Queen_Perry chick has a new catch phrase:shazam. She says it after everything she says.

    @LTM
    Please tell me your not one of those delusional Katycats…

  41. Legendtina4life(Queentina Returns to #1) September 18, 2011

    Well, its passed 12:00 over here and I have work, so goodnight to all

  42. THE UNIVERSITY OF GAGA (IS†ANN4GAGA) September 18, 2011

    @Legendtina
    lol no. im MsKatyperryfan101. is it me, or did they all come at once?

    @IStann4GaGa
    lol it was probably Perrylicious. I swear Perrylicious is KatyisQueen on Billboard. I havent seen any on Katys official site and nobody really goes to KatyPerryDaily

  44. LTM September 18, 2011

    i should probably go to sleep too. i have school tomorrow and I need to shower…

  45. GAgAForLIFE September 18, 2011

    B**** HAS NO ORIGINALITY Copieng gaga with bionic next album she will copy Beyonce 4 I CANT…

  46. Small_Angel September 18, 2011

    Christina is very strong in ballads. Like the fact that she is some kind of a nuetralizer in the music field… Electro is for gaga, Pop is for Katy she lands in the middle of the two.

    I was just wondering why all some kind of an artist old or new have to be compared to Christina? maybe bcoz she is one of the best and she can do what ever genre she wants. I just hope she will have a better management decision skills on her management side. Coz i really believe she has it all to be great.

  47. ChristinasCOMING September 19, 2011

    Christina is coming for your favs 2012!!!!!!

    50 million albums sold, 5 grammys including 1 Latin, 5 #1 singles, 4 top 3 albums 2 of which were #1, a walk of fame star and first inductee in the Gay walk of fame, Burlesque grossed nearly 100 million worldwide, a hit tv show amongst many other accolades.

    Oh BTW for those of you saying she has no originality like Gaga does maybe you should take a stroll down memory lane to Stripped and Back to Basics when Christina created her own lane and cemented herself as a force in her own right.

    Oh and before you go thinking that Gaga and her team are ethical and and Gods gift to mankind, did you not hear about the conspiracy her team concocted to destroy Bionic so Christina wouldn’t overshadow her?

  48. irene46 September 19, 2011

    @ jamir21…

    why try and force yourself to like someone? i used to not like rihanna but she’s had so many good songs i changed my opinion of her as an artist.
    but i didn’t force myself to like her!———————————————————————————————————————–

    what’s all this crazy trash talking about ‘burlesque’? the movie cost only $55m to make and it made over $100m! and the soundtrack is still in the hot bb 200. burlesque may not be a blockbuster but it’s definitely a success! she’s a good actress and should be considered for other roles.

    jennifer lopez’s movie ‘gili’ only made $9m but no one band her from the movie screen. bey’s movies weren’t all record breakers either but still gets offers to step to the screen. christina’s every bit as good an actress as she is (no bey shade intended so stans stay seated)!

    by the way, why are they holding off airing ‘the voice’ until february. this makes no sense. it gives all the new talent shows a chance to grab up all the viewership. more tryin’ to keep christina’s career on a short leash.

    the best of luck to her with her new project and here’s hopin’ the haters don’t launch a beatdown campaign like they did with ‘bionic’.

  49. Jasmine September 19, 2011

    Her next album will be great if she leaves the “themes” alone. She should just do music that she likes rather than making an album based on a theme. The main reason why her last album did not do well is because it was theme-based (ie she recorded an album focusing on the current dance music out). She has a nice voice, but she is better off working with a variety of producers.

  50. irene46 September 19, 2011

    @ jasmine…

    ‘bionic’ failed due to heavy shade more than any thing else. there was an intentional effort by the likes of prez hilton to put it on stall.

  51. S*** September 19, 2011

    Bionic was an EPIC DISASTER-PIECE just like her ENTIRE career!!

    BIGGEST FLOP/FAIL EVER!!!!!

    I Hope she can TOP it 😉

    Then maybe shell be a POWAH RANGER!:

    http://tinyurl.com/3ew9y7h

    😕 well, maybe one day… 😐

  52. nice_gurl September 19, 2011

    I just can’t wait till she releases a song from the album, just so I can get a feel of what the album will be like. Knowing Christina, the material should be great.

  53. LadygagaFansAnnoying September 19, 2011

    Lady gaga fans are so annoying, always trying to destroy other artists, first Britney, then Katy perry, then Adele, then Christina.

    I’m already fed up with Lady gaga fans, so annoying! gross

  54. Small_Angel September 19, 2011

    @s***, your name says it all. You are such a s***!

    Team Christina Aguilera, Adele, Britney Spears and Katy Perry Here! they don’t need to be Powah rangers. They are simply the best!

  55. Beyonce love on top September 19, 2011

    Lady gaga really Ripped Xtina off alot of her recent Photos she looking like xtina I swear Lady gaga Ripped her off so bad I started thinking Xtina ripped her off (and I stan for xtina lol) But Look at strip Era Xtina has been crazy since forever and Look in Fighter That Black outfit thing has on has a similiar look Like that Brown Outfit gaga has on in You & I the black hair to

  56. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) September 19, 2011

    OK, it is getting frustrating, I always miss the Christina posts!!!’Burlesque’ was not a bomb at all, it sold twice as its budget, the DVD did well and the album is still comfortably sitting in the Billboard 200 for the 40th week, so it was a success.I am happy about Christina coming back, I really needed some new music from her this year.I don’t think she needs a buzz single, though, tbh.’Moves Like Jagger’ was enough of a buzz single (and then some 😉 ) and her presence on ‘The Voice’ with its high ratings is enough to generate momentum 😎

    Bring on the lead single!!

  57. aisha aguilera keys September 19, 2011

    I love Chrissy! Thanx Sam! Bring on the album, Aguilera! I can’t wait! I def know I’ll be buying it!

  58. commanderofthedancefloor September 19, 2011

    i hope her next single is something like keeps gettin better so then she can get the public’s attention, and her vocals on that song were really good. i hope that she makes music that shows her amazing voice off. but not making too ballad heavy

  59. linker nippel September 19, 2011

    i hope the best for xtina
    she is amazing
    and a strong woman
    i think she will comeback 2012 stronger than ever
    and be back on top of the charts

    good look xtina

  60. irene46 September 19, 2011

    i like lady gaga but her fans need to freeze the christina copied gg bs. when the big spotlight first hit gaga she wasalread copying christina’s make up and dress style. when i first heard the bridge to ‘poker face’ i thought it was christina.

    gaga fans should feel nothing but stupid posting about christina or anyone else ripping her off because she mimicks everybody whose had big spotlight including alisha keys when she’s at the piano.

    of course, you’ll keep up the “copying gaga” insanity no matter how much it makes you look like delusional hypocrites.

  61. KylieciousRevolution September 19, 2011

    That’s a good thing she’s coming up with a new album. I think all of her fans are looking forward to something new. After Bionic being underrated it’s time for something new from Xtina. Finally!!

  62. Small_Angel September 19, 2011

    I like gaga! but her Fans is making me hate her!

  63. LaLa September 20, 2011

    Can’t wait for it Madam Xtina!!! Just Bring it & no more NMT puhlease 😉 Are you ready?

  64. Legendtina September 21, 2011

    LOL at the imbecile, ignorant Lady CACA fans in here who dare to say anything negative about Christina Aguilera!

    You poor f*cking ugly, deformed idiots.

    Christina Aguilera takes a sh*t on Lady Caca. Lady Caca WISHES she could be the new Aguilera. But she f*cking CANNOT. Christina is here to stay.

    Lady Caca can steal wigs and costumes all day long, every day. She cannot however steal Christina Aguilera’s epic vocal style. Christina’s singing is UNMATCHED, WORLDWIDE.

    Without Christina Aguilera, there’d be no troll version names : Lady CACA.

    DO NOT GET IT TWISTED, YOU POOR F*CKING DELUSIONAL LADY CACA FANS. You must all be a bunch of annoying troll children under the age of 15. My gosh, you monsters are so annoying. A f*cking mess!

    Xtina sh*ts on all the people that do not like her! She is the BEST. A great actress, the best vocalist, a good dancer, an awesome songwriter, a very generous philanthropist, etc, etc.

    Xtina sh*ts on you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  65. Choco September 22, 2011

    Xtina is my bish! & Burlesque was actually a great movie to my surprise. Cant wait for what shes got in store, I love every album she’s released!

  66. irene46 September 22, 2011

    maroon5 & christina are still # 1 for the second straight week. that makes 3 weeks at that spot! congrats to both!!!

  67. irene46 September 28, 2011

    of course, they would forget to post a demo by christina! they’re party to the ‘keep christina’s career minimal campaign!
