Christina Aguilera makes huge career move ahead of new album

Christina Aguilera has made a huge career choice ahead of her newest album's release.

The pop star has left RCA Records after 26 years.

The 43-year-old singer — who released her self-titled debut album in 1999 — has signed with 5020 Records, a new Latin label based in Miami, Variety reports.

Aguilera has left RCA, but 5020 is also under the Sony banner so she'll remain with the parent company.

The move comes after much speculation about Aguilera's future at RCA after she updated her website to include 5020’s official logo.

All mention of the singer has now been removed from RCA’s website.

She released eight studio albums under the record label.

Christina has been working on songs for a new album after being inspired by her Las Vegas residency show.

The residency show was launched at the Voltaire at The Venetian in Sin City at the end of last year.

Doing the shows inspired her creativity for new music.

She told Vegas Magazine: “[We are] drawing inspiration from a variety of sources: the lights of Vegas, the glitz of Voltaire, my music, fashion, Burlesque, creative Parisian nods and more.

“I’m always trying to push my artistic boundaries and do things I’ve never done before to always offer something new and fresh, giving the audience a one-of-a-kind experience.”

The Genie In A Bottle singer has been experimenting with new sounds for her follow-up to her last album, 2018’s Liberation.

On Sunday, she posted to her Instagram to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Genie In A Bottle.

She captioned the post with: "In honor of the 25th anniversary of ‘Genie In A Bottle,’ I took a trip back into my archive and found so many special moments from that pivotal time in my life that I wanted to share.

"This song not only changed my life, but also impacted and connected me with countless others around the world. None of this would be possible without the love of my incredible fans.

"I am forever grateful for you all and the passion you’ve shown me and my music throughout my career."

She concluded: "Today, I not only celebrate this song, but I celebrate YOU, my fans. Thank you!!!! More celebration surprises on the way."

Fans took to the comments section to praise the star with one person writing: "Christina Aguilera you will always be famous."

Another added: "The album that made me fall in love with music."

A third gushed: "25 years baby!! And we still jamming to this!!"
