Posted on 11/28/2009

Billboard.com -- During the last U.K. stop of her "I Am..." tour at the Trent FM Arena in Nottingham, Beyonce announced that she has plans to release a new album next year.

"This is my last show for this tour in the U.K., so hopefully I'll see you all in a year with a new album," a raspy-voiced Beyonce told the crowd at the end of the set before thanking them "from the bottom of my heart" for coming to the show. Producer Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins also confirmed the news on Twitter, recently posting that he is working on some tracks for Beyonce's upcoming album.

Beyonce's 2008 album, "I Am... Sasha Fierce," has sold 2.5 million copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
