Christina Aguilera Has Big News for Mulan Fans

Back when she was just 17 years old, before she was a genie in a bottle even, Christina Aguilera sang the song "Reflection" from Disney's animated Mulan. It's a karaoke classic, a Disney standard, and it's about to get an update. According to Entertainment Weekly, Aguilera told the audience at her Las Vegas residency, Xperience, to expect a new version of the song when the movie hits theaters next month.

"The live-action Mulan is coming out by the way," she said. "You have to go see it. I recorded a new 'Reflection' and new material for the movie. I've been working on that, but this is the original."

Last year at Disney's D23 Expo, Aguilera offered a surprise performance of "Reflection" before she was honored as a Disney Legend.

"This is way cooler than a Grammy, I just have to say!" Aguilera said at the convention. "Thank you, Bob Iger. This is tremendous. You don’t understand. I may be the ultimate Disney fan. I don’t know. I know it’s high competition in this room. Oh my God," she said. "I have a speech but I want to throw it out because my God. Thank you so much for this amazing honor. I love this. This is so special, I'm like shaking … I’ve been holding back tears all day."
