Confirmation: Christina working on new album
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/ne...new-album.html
She is going to go deep into her emotions eg Stripped style. If that Castle Walls song leak is anything to go by its going to be a good one. Also more from the actual interview that DS hasn't posted. She began working on this album in June. which means she must have dropped Bionic right from the get go. Maybe she hated the finished product... either way I think Bionic flopping needed to happen. This rings true because remember Darkchild saying he was doing a song for her but we couldn't understand why?? this was why.Also she has said, although her dates usually mean anything from six months to a whole year later!, that she wants it out summer 2011! |

This is fantastic news.
It's very interesting that she started recording in June. Like you say, she bailed on Bionic very early on which certainly adds more weight to the rumours/assumption that she wasn't happy with it from the beginning. I still think the 'suits' interfered majorly there and/or she didn't feel emotionally connected to it as her marriage was failing. It certainly makes me have more faith in her that she saw Bionic wasn't doing well and she went back to the studio. From our point of view, it just looked like she couldn't give a shit and had no interest in promoting her career. When in reality, she just had no interest in THAT product. I love that she's going back to Stripped-esque material. It sounds horrible, but she made her best music when she was struggling and full of different emotions. As for the Castles song, I heard that was for T.i's album? I hope so anyway, or this is an early demo...because it's pretty meh. I like the message, but it sounds pretty feeble. |

looks like we'll only be hearing Bionic on future tours then. Looking forward to the new album, however.

I will remain open minded but im keeping my expectations incredibly low after the horrendous waste that was Bionic. I genuinely dont think she has what it takes anymore. Shes never really been at the top of her game and has always remained the underdog...time will tell if she can get out of her peers shadow.

Never been at the top of her game? Stripped is regarded as one of the all time greatest pop albums and hasn't it sold something like 14 million copies? there isn't many artists that can pull off that.
As for Stripped being one of the greatest pop album...um...no. Its a great album but its not one of the all time bests at all. Until Christina steps outside of 'the voice', she will forever be known as the girl in the chaps who flopped miserably with Bionic. |

Youre missing my point. Shes always lived under the shadow of other artists - before it was Britney and now it is Gaga. She has the talent to make something great but after the hype and fanfare surrounding Bionic, I truely think she lost a lot of fans by releasing a dire album. The sales and reception speak volumes. She runs the risk of getting into Mariah territory by not evolving with current sounds, though Christina is nowhere near as popular in America.

Until Christina steps outside of 'the voice', she will forever be known as the girl in the chaps who flopped miserably with Bionic. She definitely needs to up her game. A lot of her problem is the lack of releases over her career. She should at least be on the 5th/6th album by now, rather than the 4th. The others cashed in on their hype by releasing as much as they could during their peak, producing more material. It also doesn't help that she doesn't pay much attention to what's popular. Granted it's commendable that she doesn't latch onto the hottest producers and sell her creativity for a hit...but it means she gets left behind. Totally disagree with the last thing you say though. Stripped is held in high regard, higher than any Britney album. If nothing else, it produced Beautiful, a classic pop song by all accounts. I also don't think Bionic flopping will be held onto too intently beyond forums and perhaps a mention, assuming her next album is a success. It just didn't make enough impact to be a widely acknowledged disaster. |

I agree with the first bit. She has always been overshadowed by someone else, she's never been the peoples favourite. However, she's still got a lot going for her. I think her major problem is that she's put up against people above her - for whatever reason - so she always comes across as a bit of the underdog. Whether it's Mariah, Britney or Gaga. Perhaps it's because people think there's potential for greatness there. Pink doesn't have this problem for instance. She just constantly chugs away, under the radar.

It just didn't make enough impact to be a widely acknowledged disaster. She may have popped out Beautiful but as you said, she hasnt got much other material so she cant trade on past glories whereas Britney, Pink, Madonna etc etc all have larger back catalogs to delve into. One or two songs cant carry a career. Also, Bionic was all about selling her soul to producers, albeit a few less mainstream ones. She had the album made for her and it was absolutely awful. She hasnt really got many avenues to go down now. |

Not really. Average joe public doesnt look at her the same way her fans do, thats pretty obvious. Christina is known primarily for Dirty and then Candyman and now the Bionic disaster. The only reason she sold anything is that people bought the Christina name and then they found out that the name isnt enough, hence the crapfest that is Bionic. The public are not stupid - if you f**k up once, you wont get another shot unless the material is amazing. Time will tell how good the new songs are.

This ohchrome person. What a hater.
"Joe bloggs" probably haven't even heard of bionic. Christina will always be remembered as having one of the greatest voices of her generation. Simple as that. |

Nobody is doubting her voice however its obvious that her voice is starting to mature and with maturity comes change. People got bored of big voices many years ago. I repeat - if she was still the amazing all conquering Christina, she'd have had a hit with Bionic however she didnt...it failed because nobody gives a toss any more. Sorry to have to bring a bit of reality into your lives. |

Now run back to the Leona or Beyonce thread. We're bored of you. |

One great big contradiction you are. Like you said ''joe bloggs'' hadn't even heard of Bionic. The album was delayed a year and then it came out as her marriage crashed. She had more personal things to sort out like the wellbeing of her son.
You're just a hater and you will be shown up for what you are once Christina is back on form next year. Now run back to the Leona or Beyonce thread. We're bored of you. Oh and please, unless youre Missy Elliott, quit using the word 'hater'. We are not in Miami, sweetness. |

Is there a brain in that head? Didnt think so. I wont be running along to neither of those threads, but thanks for your concern. Christina has so much promise but keeps ruining it by releasing awful material. There is a reason why Gaga and co are leagues ahead of her.

Yet its Christina who has nearly 50 million worth of sales under her belt... Not bad for a past it star or an underdog. Hell being an underdog seems pretty cool looking at the stats.

I think youre adding nearly 20 million to those album figures there, but well done for trying. She is the underdog - shes never ever been the number one star in the world compared to Britney and nowadays Gaga. Fact.
It seems everyone else wanted to talk about the album. You seem to want to provoke her fans by childishly trying to bait them with immature comments like ''Britney and Gaga are better' rofl we aren't on youtube. |

" Now, im no mathematician however I dont think shes managed to sell 25 million copies of her greatest hits and Bionic. As ive said loads of times before (its always ignored to make arguements much more one sided) I was a big fan of hers until she decided she no longer wanted to make good music or release anything interesting for her fans. So. Try that one again.

Poor ohirome. Just so, so WRONG. A simple google search tells everyone that as of October 2010 Christina has sold 46 million records worldwide and won five grammy awards.
I don't think ohirome has anything to come back with. They will have a brusied ego.

I didnt say theyre better - try to avoid twisting things - however they clearly have had a shitload more success than Christina. They can release pretty much anything and itll be all over the world in hours. Compare that to Christinas last few releases and youll see my point.
