PASADENA, Calif. - Although country singer Garth Brooks has announced his retirement, he's not going to be idle.
The 38-year-old Brooks told reporters backstage at the People's Choice Awards Sunday night that his movie production company will make a statement about its first project in about 10 days.
He said despite expectations, it won't be ``The Lamb'' his film about his fictional rock-star alter ego, Chris Gaines.
'``The Lamb' is still Paramount's baby, and if Paramount says we're going forward with this ... and if they're crazy enough to let me do the soundtrack, I'll go back in and do it, even though it was the hardest thing I've ever done. ... the Chris Gaines project,'' he said.
Brooks won the male musical performer award at the People's Choice Awards.
