Christina Aguilera Says Her Next Album Will Be “Really Personal” After a Three-Year Break

Christina Aguilera is preparing to release a “really personal” new album along with an intimate documentary film.

The Beautiful singer has not shared a full length album since 2022’s Aguilera, her first record performed entirely in Spanish, but she has assured fans that fresh music is coming, paired with a career-spanning film.

During her appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show on Tuesday (09.12.25), she said, “It is going to be a really personal project coming up because it will connect with a very personal documentary that we have been filming for the last few years.”

In 2022, it was announced that the forty four year old pop star would be the focus of a documentary created by Time Studios and Roc Nation, which will explore her early rise to fame, her experience as a mother, and where she stands in her career today.

Although three years have passed since her last full album, which itself followed 2018’s Liberation by four years, Christina emphasized that she prefers to be intentional about the music she releases.

She explained, “I do take a minute, but it is to really be thoughtful about what I put out. I am not someone who says, ‘Oh, let me just keep pumping it out.’ Integrity matters to me.

“I am a message girl and I really like to take in what is happening in the world, the things that are moving me and affecting people as well. I put a lot of thought into it.”

She also shared that there is “some” unreleased material left over from the Aguilera sessions.

However, she added, “Yes, there is some… there are things along the way, but they will probably always stay in a vault.”

Christina has previously spoken about how her voice has grown stronger with age, something she attributes to lived experience.

In 2024, she told Rolling Stone magazine, “I much prefer my voice now, because it has experience, which is what I loved about all the singers I grew up admiring and wanting to emulate.

“It is the emotional soaring and the singing over the notes or the grain and the grit that creates a rasp that only comes from experience.

“You cannot force it or buy it. It simply feels lived in.”
