Christina Aguilera is releasing a 20th anniversary edition of 'Stripped'.

The 41-year-old pop princess is dropping a special edition of her smash hit fourth studio album - which sold 12 million copies internationally - to mark its two decades on Friday (21.10.2022).

The commemorative digital celebration - which will be available in Dolby Atmos for the first time ever - will include fresh cover art and two bonus tracks. A vinyl edition will make its way into the world on 3 March 2023 and is available for pre-order now.

The 2002 LP- which spawned many of Christina's biggest songs such as 'Dirrty', 'Fighter' and 'Can't Hold Us Down' and is certified five times Platinum - will be marked with a reimagined music video to her empowerment anthem 'Beautiful' by award-winning director Fiona Jane Burgess

The video - which will arrive on the Grammy winner's official YouTube channel on Wednesday (19.10.2022) - will spread the self-love anthem's message via young people who have experienced the pressures of social media.

Last week, Christina - who is mother to 14-year-old son Max with her ex Jordan Bratman and eight-year-old daughter Summer Rain her fiance Matthew Rutler - first teased the video to 'Beautiful (2022 Version)' "in celebration" of World Mental Health Day.

She tweeted: "In celebration of the 20 year anniversary of Stripped and World Mental Health Day, I'm honored to share a new music video for Beautiful, coming October 19th. [purple heart emoji]

"Tune out and turn in. Take your space, log off, put your mind, body, and soul first."
