Christina Aguilera's Inspiration Mon, 6-Oct-2008
Christina Aguilera will be making her big comeback in London next week and has said that motherhood is what got her where she is now.
“He’s (Max) the inspiration behind my new music, my new sound and even my new look. It’s all about playfulness and having fun now.”
Continuing on, she said, “Motherhood hasn’t changed me. It’s like the line in my new single Keeps Gettin’ Better says: ‘I’m still a superb**ch.”
Ms Aguilera, 27, wants to keep in her roots of singing and let the world know that she can take on being a mom as well as a performer. The “Genie in the Bottle” singer also had stated earlier, “I’m not going to take the safe route just because I had a child. This is my first show since I had him and I can’t wait to give everybody the full Christina show. It’s an incredible balancing act being a mom. ”
On being a mother, she said, “I want to be the best mom I can be but I also want to show my son who I am as a person, not just this women who changes diapers and breast feeds.”
Christina will be headlining the Africa Rising Festival show at London’s Royal Albert Hall on October 14, an event that is very important to her.
The blonde sex pistol talked about the event, saying, “It’s a concert to celebrate the positive things that come from Africa and about finding sustainable solutions to problems. The media always seem to focus on the negative things in terms of Africa’s history and its political struggles. But we are celebrating the positive things that are happening over there. For me personally it’s exciting because it’s all about looking forward, which is exactly the way I like to live my life.”
With her hot new single, Keeps Gettin’ Better, Christina’s album is due out on November 3 and her greatest hits collection will follow a week later. |
