Christina Aguilera mom to, Max, is getting ready to release a new album, Bionic, and is working on the movie, Burlesque, with Kristen Bell. In between the madness she was able to cover the February 2010 issue of Marie Claire. In the magazine she talks about how this album is more upbeat and playful because of her little boy. Here are the highlights:
On how motherhood has inspired her music: “I had a really hard time being light before. I’d get a little weird about it being too cliché. My first record was very clichéd pop - what everyone else wanted. [My second album Stripped] inspired by a lot of pain. [My third, Back to Basics,] /still had some sort of relation to my past. [My new album] is just about the future - my son in my life, motivating me to want to play and have fun.”
On maturing in the entertainment industry: “In this crazy business, it’s so easy to build up a lot of walls and a lot of bitterness. And it’s just no way to be… “[I can now use softer tones] that maybe I’ve been afraid to do in the past, to allow myself to go to a place of ‘less singing.’ I’m more vulnerable and more strong at the same time.”
