Usher to re-release top-selling album

R&B heart-throb Usher has revamped his multi-platinum-selling album Confessions by adding four new tracks onto it.

Not satisfied with Confessions being the biggest-selling album of the year, the 25-year-old singer will release a repackaged version of the CD, which will include My Boo, his duet with soul sensation Alicia Keys.

The packaging will also include new cover art, an expanded CD booklet, a pull-out poster and a letter to fans from the star.

Since its March debut, Confessions has sold 5.7 million copies and has spent nine weeks at number one on the Billboard chart. The first three singles - Yeah!, Confessions Part 2 and Burn - have also been number one singles.

Record bosses are hoping the album will eventually reach diamond status by selling 10 million copies.
