Christina Aguilera has revealed that she’s recorded new music for ABC drama Nashville.
Aguilera will appear in the show as Jade St. John later next week (April 15), recording two new songs for the series. The tracks are called ‘The Real Thing’ and ‘Shotgun’ and are expected to be performed on the show. The songs will be released as singles on April 21.
Aguilera is currently working on her eighth album, which will be produced by Pharrell Williams.
Meanwhile, Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl recently criticised TV talent show because they “make everyone sound like fucking Christina Aguilera”.
Grohl told NME: “I think people should feel encouraged to be themselves. That’s what bums me out about those shows where people are judged so harshly by fucking musicians that hardly even play an instrument on their own fucking albums. It makes me really mad.”
He added: “I swear to God, if my daughter walked up onstage and sang her heart out and some fucking billionaire looked at her and said, ‘No, I’m sorry you’re not any good,’ I’d fucking throttle that person, I swear to God. Who the fuck are you to say what’s good or bad?”
“The next time someone says you’re not a good singer say: ‘Fuck You’. I interviewed Neil Young and he said in his band someone said to him: ‘The band’s really great, but honestly you shouldn’t be the singer.’ If Neil Young had listened to that person then we wouldn’t have had any Neil Young.”
