Speaking exclusively to The Sun's TV Mag, the 50-year-old shared the exciting news about her return to music.
Denise said: “I DJ so I’ll be doing lots of festivals, and I’ve got an album out of covers and new songs.
"All the songs are relevant to a point in my life - it’s basically the soundtrack to my autobiography, A Bit Of Me, which will eventually be a stage show in 2026."
Her first album, Tell Me on a Sunday, was released by Polydor in April 2003.

Denise and former Big Breakfast co-star Johnny, 58, buried the hatchet in recent years after years of not talking to each other.
Their working partnership – and their once close friendship – ended in 1999 when a pay row ultimately caused Denise to quit the series.
This move ultimately sparked an on/off feud that continued for decades.
The two have now reconciled and have teamed up on Celebrity Googlebox since last year.
Elsewhere, Denise has also presented various consumer programmes for Channel 4.
Secrets of the Supermarket Buyers will air on Monday, April 14 at 8pm.
This format sees her examine how a small group of people influence what millions of Brit shoppers buy every day.
Denise meets with current and former buyers from the nation's biggest supermarket chains, while learning how they decide what to sell to the nation's consumers.
