Singer Sharon Corr has blasted female singers who resort to wearing nearly nothing on stage.<\/p>\n

The former Voice of Ireland judge can’t understand why women feel the need to “be naked” to sing.<\/p>\n

She said: “I see so many overtly sexualised images these days and I wonder why women have to be naked in order to sing a song.<\/p>\n

“My new record is a female album, I feel very strongly about representing women in a way that\u2019s not negative; that tries to progress the female cause forwards rather than backwards.”<\/p>\n

The Corrs star, 44, added that she is happy to push female sexuality on her new solo album.<\/p>\n

She said: “Women are extremely stereotyped, my songs are not about being unfaithful, it\u2019s about expressing the normal things that we feel and we think.<\/p>\n

“Women are not shy and retiring about wanting our husbands or our partners or whoever it is. I don\u2019t feel that way, it\u2019s just that I hate the stereo-typing, women are so much more liberated than that.”<\/p>\n

But Sharon does find it tough to juggle a music career and being a mum to Cathal, eight, and seven-year-old Flori – but wants to show them women can succeed.<\/p>\n

“I love my kids so much, they are the most important thing to me but I can\u2019t live without my music,” she told 2FM.<\/p>\n

“I have this constant tug of war between them both, I try to balance it all and I have a very supportive husband.<\/p>\n

“I want to show them what women can do in life and how you can succeed when you take life by the horns.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
