In 2006 she released the controversial ''Loose'', which was produced by Timbaland. While ''Loose'' has been her most successful release to date, spawning rave reviews and receiving Gold and Platinum accreditations worldwide, Furtado also received criticism for "selling out" and sexing up her image to sell records.
In 2009 Furtado released ''Mi Plan'', a Latin rock album recorded entirely in Spanish. This was also a success (though not the worldwide smash ''Loose'' was), going Platinum in the US and charting in many European countries. A GreatestHitsAlbum was released the next year.
She plans to release her fifth studio album, ''The Spirit Indestructible'', in September 2012.
