Whitney in the studio
Whitney is continuing to work hard on her next album which is due August 6th and her official fan club says she will soon be entering the studio with her good friend Babyface to work on a few tracks.

In other album news, Radio 3 FM, a radio station from the Netherlands, interviewed this morning a Dutch producer who said he has been working on a track called "Believe" for Whitney's new album. The DJ said that he thought Whitney was high maintenance and that he disliked her attitude. The producer said that's what she is like on the outside, but once you get to know her, she is a really nice lady.
