[NEWS] THE DIRRTY DETAILS ABOUT CHRISTINA AGUILERA'S UPCOMING ALBUM

Rob Lewis:

"I can tell you that what you will see and hear from Christina will be different, original, and probably against the grain: the true form for Christina ... always re-creating herself."

Tricky Stewart:

"It's just great. I wouldn't say that it's alternative, I wouldn't say that it's different; Christina's always been an artist that moves the bar and that's what the great ones do. They don't stay in the same place for too long, and this album is just another move for her. I really feel it's one of her best bodies of work that I've heard since Stripped. I think it's really, really amazing and I think it's well put together. "She's mixing it up again. She's singing R&B again, she's doing pop. She's doing it all, but she's found a way to make it all meet in the middle because she's so many different things."

Sia Furler:

"One of the songs is "the best singing she does since Beautiful" and another one is an "awesome, catchy, Christina-song". Another one is a song in honor for her son Max Liron Bratman. "It´s almost like a lullaby."

Ladytron:

"We were impressed because she had a real deep knowledge of our music - album tracks, not just the singles!". "We went in with no expectations; the whole thing was a massive surprise. But it was incredible. She was so musically talented, a vocalist who really knows her voice. The first takes sounded really amazing, and while we'd made demos, it was only when her voice was on them that it all came to life. It's nice to talk about them, we've been sitting on this for a while."

Christina Aguilera:

I think I'm most proud of this work than I have ever been, just because I have worked with so many amazing and incredible talented people, a lot of different collaborations, working with a lot of artists that I really love and listen to, respect and admire. Sia, the singer, songwriter has done some work with "Breathe Me," one of her main, amazing beautiful songs, we did a lot of work on this record together and she's just a complete gem, she's truly just a talented force to be reckoned with and I so enjoyed her company. I think we really created some super crazy magic together. I got the chance to sort of write with Santogold, M.I.A., Ladytron, artists that I really love. The overall versatility of this record is truly something special for me, I actually experimented with so many types of textures and sounds of my voice that I've never showcased and I've never even really knew that I could do. Working with so many different people, I really kind of wanted to step into their worlds, them into my world, and just get the best of both worlds and see what happened, and really experiment which is honestly what I try to do with every record so that I'm not making the same song over and over, and over again. I really like to step outside of my own box and really check out artists and this was the first time that I really collaborated with so many at once and it was just so exciting for me and the result was just magic and I just can't wait to share it all with you guys. I'm dying to share some of my titles of the record, some of the songs off the album because they're really special and just interesting to hear within itself, but soon enough guys, soon enough, I promise that it will be well worth the wait. There truly is something for everyone to enjoy on the record and as I said it's versatility is really special and it's something that I've never actually done before and being so versatile both vocally and musically, a lot of good stuff in store.

[NEWS] CHRISTINA AGUILERA'S 4TH STUDIO ALBUM IS 100% FINISHED

My ears are ringing from the huge siren in the PopWrap office that just went off. We have it set to sound every time Christina Aguilera is mentioned anywhere on the interwebs and damnit if I had to sign up for Braille classes today.

OK, so that isn't entirely true, but the fact that Jarett and I are both huge X-tina fans is definitely a fact. So when I heard that her fourth studio album is now all wrapped up in a nice little bow and ready for the masses, I just about dirrrrrtied myself.

Tricky Stewart (the mastermind behind Rihanna’s “Umbrella” and Beyoncé’s “Single Ladies”) sat down with Rap-Up.com for an exclusive interview on Christina's finished album, and damn if he didn't yap yap yap. Tricky started by saying, “I really feel it’s one of her best bodies of work that I’ve heard since 'Stripped.' I think it’s really, really amazing and I think it’s well put together."

The follow-up to 2006’s "Back to Basics" has been described as a departure from her past efforts. “It’s just great. I wouldn’t say that it’s alternative, I wouldn’t say that it’s different,” he shared. “Christina’s always been an artist that moves the bar and that’s what the great ones do. They don’t stay in the same place for too long and this album is just another move for her.”

PopWrap previously reported that there was speculation of the blond Micky Mouse Club alumnus collaborating with Sia, Santigold and M.I.A. of which Tricky also semi-cleared up. When asked about the M.I.A. duet, he said “I know that she did it,” confirmed Tricky, “and I know that there’s a lot of other cool features, like I know that she has Santigold and Flo Rida on there.” There are also rumors that other collaborations on the album include Claude Kelly, Ladytron, Linda Perry, Diplo & Switch, Goldfrapp, Ladyhawke and Le Tigre. If that's the case, there will be a massive party in my living room come release day -- mark my words.

Speaking of words (segway!), no word on a release date or first single as of yet, but it's definitely on the 2010 roster. And the timing couldn't be better because Christina has given word that she wants to shift her focus from music to movies -- she's set to star in "Burlesque," a musical co-starring Cher and "Twilight" hottie Cam Gigandet that I've already bought tickets for. Well, in my mind.

[SPECULATION] SHEDDING LIGHT ON 'LIGHT & DARKNESS' WITH FAN CONCEPTUALIZATIONS

As the anticipation, the curiosity, the butterflies begin to prevail....fans begin to brainstorm....what will it sound like?...what will it look like? what journey will we be taken on?

Left with nothing but the rumored album title "Light & Darkness" fans young & old strive to capture what hasnt been revealed yet, one thing is for certain the New Album is "highly" anticipated & not just with Christina fans!

Fans of Sia, Goldfrapp, Ladytron, Le Tigre, Santigold, M.I.A. and of course the amazing Linda Perry have lined up & are right in this big ass boat of ours...LOL...!!! So while we wait for some Official New Album news, lets check out some of the fans concepts.

[NEWS] CHRISTINA AGUILERA'S SON WAS HER ELECTRON INSPIRATION FOR HER NEW ALBUM

Christina Aguilera's Son Was Her Electro Inspiration On New Album
In E! special airing Wednesday, Aguilera says she gravitated toward Zero 7 when she was pregnant with Max.

Christina Aguilera has spoken quite a bit about how her upcoming album is taking her sound in a new, electro-disco direction thanks to collaborations with Goldfrapp,Ladytron, M.I.A., Santigold, Sia and Le Tigre.

But in a two-hour interview scheduled to air Wednesday at 9 p.m. ET on E!, "Christina Aguilera: An E! Entertainment Special," the Grammy-winning belter reveals a bit more about husband Jordan Bratman as well as the influence the couple's toddler son, Max, has had on her new studio adventures.

The show takes you inside the studio with Aguilera, where she recalls how after 19-month-old Max was born, she got hooked on the pumping electro sound of bands like U.K. downtempo duoZero 7. Australian pop singer Sia, who has worked with Zero 7, explains in the show that Aguilera told her, "I'm kind of interested in stepping into your world."

"Whenever Max was born, I really gravitated, for some reason, towards a lot of electro music and that futuristic sound," Aguilera said. "I was listening to a lot of artists like Zero 7, [who] have worked a lot with one of my favorite singer/songwriters, Sia, who is absolutely amazing."

Rather than bend her collaborators to her sound, Aguilera said she really wanted to "step inside their world and see how they put together their sound and their music and experiment with different textures and sounds of my voice."

Aguilera, 28, also gets weepy when she talks about how Bratman has helped settle her once-wild life. "I grew up not really having sort of any real male perspective or role model," Aguilera said, sporting a bleach-blond hairdo and a more tame look than in the past. "Jordan just continuously makes me fall deeper and deeper in love with him every day. ... He just exudes such love and is such a great father to Max that it just make me the happiest woman alive."

In the special, the singer also reveals where Bratman proposed to her, how her pregnancy was a total surprise and the nightly, pre-bedtime-for-Max workout routine that keeps her in shape.

The 28-year-old singer is keeping mum on many of the specifics of her upcoming album, but told A.P.E. radio station earlier this week, “I can’t let too much out the bag too soon. I just can’t, ‘cause I really want you guys to be surprised and to experience firsthand what I’m talking about or what I’m not talking too much about. Too soon in the game, but wrapping everything up now.”

She continued, “I think I’m most proud of this work than I’ve ever been, just because I worked with so many amazing and incredibly talented people. [Sia and I] did a lot of work on this record together, and she’s just a complete gem. She’s truly just such a talented force to be reckoned with. And I so enjoyed her company, and I think we really created some super crazy magic together. I got a chance to sort of write with Santigold,M.I.A.,Lady Tron— artists that I really love.”

[NEWS] SIA TALKS WORKING WITH CHRISTINA AGUILERA AND HER NEW TENTATIVE ALBUM

Sia is the friend you never knew. Lexapro, butt sex, compulsively lying - she doesn't even know us, and we heard it all, oftentimes laced with thunderous bursts of shrill laughter. It's way cute.

Best known for "Breathe Me," the send-off song to the "Six Feet Under" series finale, the queer prog-pop Aussie's dropped three solo albums and a DVD - "TV is my Parent," released in May. One of her biggest fans happens to be one of the world's biggest stars: Christina Aguilera, who tapped Sia for a handful of collaborations on the "Dirrty" singer's upcoming album.

Sia's also wrapping up work on her own LP - "the best thing I've ever done," she gushes. Between recording sessions, the human energy drink told us about her take on being a "woman," having game night with Aguilera and how the hardest years of her life produced the happiest album of her career.

I know you've been super busy with the recording of this album, but also you were working with Christina Aguilera for a bit.

Yeah, hello!

A huge gay icon.

She's really fun. You would love her.

Yeah? I read a blog post that you wrote regarding what went on behind the scenes, like drinking milkshakes, grammar lessons -

And how I wanted to eat her child like corn on the cob (laughs). I still do.

Sounds like it must've been a fun recording experience.

It really was. It was so fun. She's a really nice person. I'm going over their house to have game night some time. It's gotta be an odd day, because now I'm trying to get fit so I've got a personal trainer. I'm in Hollywood now, recording the album with a personal trainer. It's hilarious.

You've hit the big time.

I'm really, really moving up in the world. So I'm going over (to Aguilera's) one night next week when I don't have to get up early with the personal trainer the next day, because she's a bit of a night owl, so I know it'll probably end up being a late one. She has Super Mario in her house. She has a game room that has arcade games in it and a pool table and stuff. I think when you're that famous, it becomes sort of a necessity. If you were gonna go on a fun excursion, if you're as famous as her, it's sort of impossible without the paparazzi or fans wanting your attention. In her case, it was a smart move to build a room in the house for that sort of thing (laughs).

I would totally have the same if I were famous.

Yeah, if I was that famous, and if I could afford it, I would build several restaurants in my house with different themes, and probably a dog park and a Pinkberry (Frozen Yogurt). Maybe a board game haven, with Taboo, Scrabble -

I love word games.

Are you on Facebook? Do you play Word Twist or Scrabblicious?

No, but I am on Facebook. I'll have to check those out.

Oh, it's so good. You should. You should challenge your friends to a game of Twirl or Scramble. You can play yourself - or you can play random people you don't know, but I think that's kind of like sleeping around.

I'd still do it.

I totally do it. I don't know why, but I do (laughs).

So the material that you wrote for her, is it happy or depressing?

It's a bit of both. It's kind of more ballad-y. There's one really beautiful kind of mid-tempo; I guess that's the one they're thinking might be a single. I have a couple of favorites, but my favorite is kind of like a lullaby. I don't remember what we're calling it now, but we wrote it for her son, and it's really beautiful.

Aw! Cute.

So beautiful. It's like classical music beautiful. And another one that's called "You Lost Me," which is very sad and awesome. It's my favorite thing to hear her sing since "Beautiful," just the way her voice is. It suits her voice so beautifully, and it's very simple in a way.

A lot of gay people, including myself, love "Beautiful."

Me too. That was why I nearly shat my pants when they called and said she wanted to work with me. I was like, "Ahhhhhh!" That's one of my favorite songs that anybody has ever wrote in the whole universe.

[NEWS] SIA RESPONSIBLE FOR LE TIGRE & CHRISTINA AGUILERA COLLABORATION

The time on the road also helped MEN progress, she said. “[Playing a lot live] helps us to change the songs, feel what works or what doesn’t.”

The touring has also brought JD back to her roots. After doing bigger bus tours with Le Tigre and even working with pop star Aguilera, being in the van keeps her grounded.

“It’s different and it’s all the same,” she said. “It’s just the three of us driving in the rain. It’s really humbling and nice for me to go back to this. I totally started to miss this way of touring, being in control of your own s--t. It’s fun and I’m glad I get a chance to do that again.”

Though JD has been busy with MEN, the Aguilera collaboration was an exciting opportunity for her and the rest of Le Tigre to do some work together again, thanks to JD’s girlfriend and former Zero 7 singer, Sia, who had been working with Aguilera in L.A. when she mentioned Le Tigre.

“Sia worked with Christina before we did, she just reminded her that Le Tigre existed and [Aguilera] was like ‘I love them…that’s perfect, that’s exactly what I want,’” JD said. “I have to thank Sia for that.”

Aguilera’s album Light & Darkness also features collaborations with Goldfrapp and Ladytron and is due out in September. While many fans were excited by the prospect of Le Tigre playing together again, the band does not have plans for recording a new album in the near future.

[SPECULATION] DAYDREAMING ABOUT CHRISTINA

So it's Friday!! Thank God! Woke up this morning in a fabulous mood, I've got a fun night planned, some friends and I are going to see "BRUNO" which looks absolutely hilarious, and yes, even though "I'm Gay," I can take a Gay Joke, ha I bet I will laugh harder than the straight people...then we are headed to The Annex...an awesome Club in Florence, South Carolina...anyways...now about the "Daydreaming"...I woke up this morning... I was awake but was "Daydreaming" and about what you ask? Yes the diva herself...I got up like I do every morning, brushed my teeth, got ready for work, and the whole time - yep still "Daydreaming." I was wondering what Christina was doing at this very moment; wondered if she uses an electronic toothbrush like me?...wondered when I'm going to replace her GQ cover? (Which is framed and hanging over the toilet wall) with a "NEW" Mag cover and wondered what the new mag cover will look like and yes it's hanging there, (kinda funny when your taking a leak) feels like she's watching me...LOL...so I get to work and I'm still "Daydreaming." I'm thinking, "Gosh! What is Christina doing?" Wonder if she's recording, if she's doing a photo shoot for the album, wonder if she's rehearsing for her next performance...wonder what her first single is going to sound like...when is it going to be released...one thing is for sure...Christina is doing a great job at keeping her New Album under wraps! I shouldn't complain! She doesn't know that this is murder to us...oh Christina you just love the element of surprise don't you?! BUT I am so anxious...like a kid at Christmas... and unfortunately I can't open the gift and then re-wrap it like I do at Christmas...I don't have a present...zip..nada..nothing...just a few teasing words, "futuristic," "Andy Warhol," "Tokyo lights"...ohhh the torture...anyhow I'm going to carry on with my "Daydreaming"...UNTIL SOME NEWS DROPS...AND DON'T WORRY GUYS IF I KNOW IT...SO WILL YOU!

Aint No Other Man for "Anonymous"

&
Listen to this beautiful song by Sia...I just know her & Christina made something amazing!
