Christina Aguilera only agreed to release a greatest hits album if she could re-record some tracks.

The singer is currently promoting her new record ‘Keeps Getting Better: A
Decade of Hits’ but demanded to change some of her classic songs as she
wanted to give her fans something new to listen to.
She said: “I felt strongly that I had to reinvent some of the old tracks and
give the fans something fresh, so I re-recorded a handful.
“There’s new songs and new versions of ‘Beautiful’ and ‘Genie In A Bottle’,
which is now called ‘Genie 2.0’.”
The album also include two new tracks which Christina, 27, worked on with
Linda Perry, the woman behind her UK number 1 single ‘Beautiful’ and Gwen
Stefani’s hit ‘What You Waiting For’.
Christina said: “It’s a taste of things to come because these new recordings
are in the vein of the next studio album.
“Linda helped me play around with different sounds. When you hear the new
recordings people are like, ‘Linda did that?’, because it’s a very
futuristic sound.”
Christina - who admits she is amazed to have already enjoyed 10 years of
success - has also slammed reports she is a “b***h”, claiming she is simply
confident and driven.
She said: “I’m running a business, and sometimes being the boss of your own
empire and creation, you have to be assertive. Being a female, that comes
with being labelled a b***h and given titles that men wouldn’t receive. But
if that’s what I’m going to be called by being assertive and knowing who I
am and what I want out of life, so be it. I wear that label proudly.”
