Christina Aguilera: 'Music is my first love, not movies'

Christina Aguilera has declared that music will always be her "first love" despite her recent foray into acting.

The 'Moves Like Jagger' singer revealed that she is considering more movie roles after last year's Burlesque, but would only sign on to a project that she felt "inspired by".

"I'm always reading scripts," she told Hello. "Burlesque was something that came to my door that I was truly inspired to do. It was the right time and place for me to dive into that world I've always been inspired by.

"But I'm not going to do back-to-back movies just to do them. Music is always my first love and where my time and attention will remain. But film is something that will be on my mind and I am looking for the next project."

As for her musical endeavours, Aguilera explained that her upcoming seventh studio album had been partly inspired by the breakdown of her marriage to Jordan Bratman.

"I'm in the studio now working on my next album and I'm writing so much," she said. "I've been inspired by a lot over the past year, the experiences I've had, the good, the bad, the highs, the lows - it will all be apparent in the lyrics. The mood of the album will be very introspective, heartfelt and deep-rooted."
