Christina Aguilera is Back Big Style with Liberation
After taking a break from the spotlight for nearly a decade, Christina Aguilera is back big style.
After she announced her first album in six years to be out on 15 June, just a few days ago, she announced her 2018 Liberation tour to kick off in September. Tickets for general public are on sale.
The North American leg of the tour will kick off on 25 September in Hollywood, Florida at Hard Rock Live at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. This would be her first outing since 2008 and will include 22 cities with two dates at New York’s Radio City Music Hall, two dates at The Chicago Theatre and stops in Boston, Oakland, Los Angeles, Las Vegas and more before she wraps up in St. Petersburg, Florida on 13 November.
Last week, the 37-year-old singer, has released the first song from her new album “Accelerate”, co-produced by Kanye West and featuring Ty Dolla $ign and 2 Chainz. Her newly announced duet with Demi Lovato “Fall in Line” at the Billboard Music Awards on 20 May will also be on the setlist.
Although Christine has released two albums since 2006’s Back to Basics, Bionic in 2010 and Lotus in 2012, she did not tour in support of either of them. She announced the North American dates just one month shy of the 10-year anniversary of her final Back to Basics Tour stop on 24 October 2008.
So the fans expect great spectacle out of this tour and don’t miss the chance to purchase your tickets on time.
Aguilera explained her long pause from touring and staying in Voice judge chair, by saying she puts her kids first.
“Touring is so frightening to me, because I am a mom first. It’s part of why I stayed in the position I was. It’s easy to get comfortable and cushy in the same place and not have to worry about uprooting your kids. I’ve been putting myself on the back burner… it needs to happen. I’m looking forward to getting back out and actually showing my kids what Mommy really does!”
The Grammy winner is back, stronger than ever with her eight studio album so prepare to enjoy her stunning soprano this fall. Often compared to Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston, Aguilera is one of the foremost practitioners of the overpowering vocal style known as melisma. She has been recognized as a pop icon and named “Pop Princess” in her early years. She won five Grammy Awards, one Latin Grammy and a star on The Hollywood Walk of Fame.
