I hate them :lol: Must be a real bugger to put them on.

That's probably why she's getting rid of them.

Madonna's old home Warner Music Group is sold for $3.3 Billion.

Peter Magennis confirms Madonna recorded two never released songs called Angels With Dirty Faces and I Want You. (Not to be confused with the Marvin Gaye STR song).

You know, sometime in the not too distant future WBR are going to start chruning out unreleased material aren't they? I think I remember her having some kind of control of her unreleased material, but if she does, how long will that last for.

Did Madonna cover a Sugababes song? :o :kink:

I KNOW!,

I did read in a interview she said that she has power over all her songs when she left WB and that she left on good terms. But like you said how long will they let her have that.....

It wouldn't surprise me if they released an album to co-inside with an album she had released etc.

They have LOADS of different albums they could release. The fan inside me would love to see them release some great stuff but it's probably best that they don't.

Did Madonna cover a Sugababes song? :o :kink:

Let's hope not!

Lady Gaga’s Creative Director admits ripping off Madonna

 

LA Times: A lot of her visual aesthetics have been compared to Madonna. As her creative director what are your thoughts on that?

 

Laurieann Gibson: Listen, [Madonna] should be bitter because I did it on purpose, and you can quote me. I did it on purpose because for all those kids who believe that you can’t, I wanted to let them feel that you can. And that’s what I represent, that’s what Gags represents. That’s what this movement represents

Howard Stern: Lady Gaga ‘s new HBO special is a straight up rip off of Madonna ‘s 1991 concert documentary ‘Truth or Dare’.

 

?

 

Here we go again…the never ending story about Madonna vs Lady Gaga.

 

?

 

Stern featured clips of ‘Lady Gaga Presents the Monster Ball Tour at Madison Square Garden‘ during Monday morning’s Howard Stern Show, ridiculing the world’s most popular pop star for her lack of originality.

 

“You could almost take the dialogue straight from the Madonna movie Truth or Dare,” said Stern while playing a clip of Lady Gaga sobbing backstage in front of the makeup mirror, talking about her fear of letting down her fans. “You can tell as a little girl she watched that Madonna movie and just wanted to be Madonna…She’s crying into the make up mirror and it’s in black and white just like Truth or Dare’.

 

Madonna’s 1991 ‘Truth or Dare’ featured a memorable scene from her Blonde Ambition tour during which she weeps about the prospect of letting down fans in her home town of Detroit.

 

Stern also called Lady Gaga “insanely boring,” “dopey” and “a complete f***ing idiot”.

 

Lady Gaga feel like a looser…clip from HBO special:

 

 

Madonna opens up in “Truth or dare”:

 

 

Madonna:

” I think I’m in a state of shock.

I know the tour’s over, but it’s–

Last week in Spain, I really felt like I was gonna have a nervous breakdown.

I couldn’t take the crowds, do the shows. It was too hot.

Everything was getting to me. And I thought…

I think I’m getting ready for the depression for when the tour’s over.

But I really didn’t feel emotional last night.

I know everybody else did…

but I didn’t feel emotional because it was like it already ended for me.

It’s like when you know someone’s dying…

you have to make your peace before they die.

I’ve done this with close friends of mine.

I make my peace with it before it happens…

so I don’t get really hurt.

And then when it happens it’s like…

I don’t feel anything.

But I know I’ll feel something later.

I just don’t know when that’s gonna be.

I guess it’s a protection device.

I hope I’m in a safe place when it happens.

What’s wrong with me? I’m freaking out"

Donna De Lory talks about her new album and of course Madonna:

http://www.madonnadenmark.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/DonnaDeLory_Namaste-color-300x199.jpg

 

“Who’s That Girl?” It’s Donna De Lory, who toured for years with Madonna and continues to stretch her legs as an artist with new albums, is now focusing on the world of yoga. De Lory has finally found sanctuary in California, where she chatted about her new life.

 

Windy City Times: Hello, Donna. After all this time are you still talking to Madonna?

 

Donna De Lory: Yes; over the last few years we have been hanging out when we work together. I have my family and she has her family. She was always telling me what it was like before and now that I have mine we just look at each other and know. We can relate now.

 

Windy City Times: Is it hard having a career and a baby?

 

Donna De Lory: Of course; I have an 8-year-old, too. I took her on two Madonna tours—crazy—when she was 1 and 3. I was doing my own shows on my days off, which was completely insane. We got through it and have a lot of amazing memories. My daughter is funny: “I have been on three world tours with Madonna!” I tell her it’s two, not three.

 

Windy City Times: Would you like your kids to go into the music business?

 

Donna De Lory: Only if it is their heart and soul. The little one, Lucianna, who is two, is so musical. I had to fight her from playing my keyboard today. She literally pushes me off and has to play.

 

Windy City Times: What a little diva!

 

Donna De Lory: She has to sing, too. Sometimes when I put her down to bed she sings the lullabies back to me. It’s incredible.

 

Windy City Times: You have always had a musical family.

 

Donna De Lory: Yes, I have. My dad was a producer at Capitol Records when I was growing up. He was already a legendary keyboard player because he has played on so many rock ‘n roll records. We would work on films and we would go to the premieres. We always be backstage and being around musicians. I was shy when I was little but my sister started singing professionally when she was a kid. She sang on The Carpenters song “Sing” so I grew up behind her wanting to sing. I started when I was 8 but was painfully shy. At a very young age I knew that’s what I wanted to do.

 

Windy City Times: Were you influenced by musicians when you were younger?

 

Donna De Lory: I was getting into artists like Pat Benatar and The Go-Go’s so it made me want to be like them. With Blondie and Chrissie Hynde there were enough really cool rocking singers that I wanted to do that whole thing.

 

Windy City Times: Did you go to school for it?

 

Donna De Lory: Not really; my high school was pretty mediocre with the arts. They gave all the parts in school to people that would never get opportunities like the ones I had growing up. I had to really fight for things. My mother died a week after my 16th birthday and I moved to Nashville with my dad because he was producing records there. I changed from wanting to be Pat Benatar to a country singer. At night I would go dance at this place called The Warehouse.

 

Windy City Times: I know that place. It was one of the first bars I went to in Nashville.

 

Donna De Lory: It was the only gay club in town back then. I would be the only girl there. No one would bother me and I could dance. I needed it. My brother wound up going there later and it was his place to hang out.

 

Windy City Times: Is your brother gay?

 

Donna De Lory: Yes; he moved from Nashville to West Hollywood. He works at a restaurant and his own music. He writes totally different music than me. He calls it boy-band R&B.

 

Windy City Times: So tell me more about your journey as a musician.

 

Donna De Lory: After Nashville, I moved back to L.A. and used my skill of singing. I would go to every studio and drop off my demo tape. I would sit on the couch and wait for the producer to walk out. I would do my spiel and try to get hired. With my dance experience it all came together when I auditioned for Madonna. I got that tour and it was a huge thing, opening my eyes to performing for the world and not just in the studios.

 

Windy City Times: That must have been amazing.

 

Donna De Lory: It was. I really grew up with her. She was like a big sister that I wanted to be like. I realized I was a performer. I got to work on that aspect of myself for many years working for her but in that time I started developing as an artist. My first release was in Japan from the band Berlin when they wanted to do a side project. After that I started shopping myself as an artist.

 

Windy City Times: You have really evolved since then.

 

Donna De Lory: It took a while. I eventually got away from my label because I was into world music and they were not into it at all. I started my own label in the late nineties, then I was able to release my record. I went on my own tour and did the whole Ani Difranco thing and sold my records. This was a huge shift for me because I grew up thinking I had to get signed to a huge company. There was always such pressure to have a huge hit right off the bat.

 

Windy City Times: The music business is just set up like that.

 

Donna De Lory: It is. So—flash forward—I started my own company and met a cellist, Cameron Stone, who was my musical partner for a long time. This when I made my record, Bliss. There are electronic beats but also eclectic and classical styles. The whole Madonna, Belinda Carlisle thing was not happening for me. I got more into yoga and spiritual studies. I was able to release a record of mantras that did really well in the yoga market. It is a huge community. I eventually did an album called Sanctuary.

 

Windy City Times: Now you have remix album out.

 

Donna De Lory: I wanted to release this record because I was getting back into dancing. Since I am not into partying I started going to trance dance classes. It is going into a studio and it is free form and no alcohol. The place I was going was an old rehearsal room for Fred Astaire. The music was so powerful and tribal. It reminded me of dancing all night at The Warehouse. I was inspired and wanted to make more of that music.

 

Britney Spears: “Madonna taught me to stay true to myself”

 

from Harper’s Bazaar Interview:

 

Laura Brown: It’s been eight years since you kissed Madonna onstage at the MTV awards. What have you learned from her?

 

Britney Spears: I actually saw her a couple of weeks ago at a party. I guess she’s really taught me to stay true to myself. That seems like a simple thing to say, but she taught me through action, not just by saying it. There are so many people around you that have opinions, but you just have to listen to your instincts

We should all kiss Madonna and then our lives will be sorted out :cheer:

Well I wouldn't say no to that!.

Live Nation, Guy Oseary launch online photo gallery

 

This week, Untitled Entertainment partner Guy Oseary and Live Nation are going live with a joint web venture RockPaperPhoto.com, an online art gallery selling largely unpublished, hand-signed, limited-edition prints of more than 1,000 singers and acts ranging from Madonna, B.B. King, James Brown to Green Day and Gwen Stefani.

 

The site features the work of 70 photographers including such recognized names as Baron Wolman, Ian Dickson, Deborah Feingold and Michael Putland. RockPaperPhoto museum-quality processes include silver gelatin, archival chromogenic, platinum print and archival print, with entry prices at $250 running to a top-tier of $10K.

 

The website is a bit of a passion project for Oseary, who manages the careers of Madonna and Alex Rodriguez among others and is also the exec producer of “Last Call with Carson Daly.” He was the architect of Madonna’s landmark 2007 deal with Live Nation.

 

“I’ve been collecting photos for a long time, I mean since I started making money. But what you have had to go through to find a good photo is like a needle in the haystack sometimes. You’ll drive from one gallery to the next gallery to the next gallery. It’s not an easy process. It’s a very ancient model that just hasn’t caught up with the times,” says Oseary. “So I really came up with this idea out of frustration.”

The Madonna MegaMix is the newest creation by remix artist Haus of Glitch. It crams 38 Madonna tracks into three and a half minutes, using glitches, stutters and errors to create a rollercoaster of Madge Madness. He bends the original narratives of famous Madonna tracks in order to tell a story of fame, love, enlightenment and the divinity of music. The MegaMix took three days to complete. No additional samples were used other than Madonna songs. The 38 tracks used are: Vogue, Music, Erotica, Burning Up, American Life, Material Girl, Nothing Fails, Lucky Star, Deeper and Deeper, Express Yourself, Heartbeat, Into the Groove, Papa Don't Preach, Die Another Day, Bye Bye Baby, Bedtime Story, 4 Minutes, Nobody Knows Me, Nothing Really Matters, Don't Tell Me, Frozen, Jump, Holiday, Hanky Panky, Open Your Heart, Hollywood, Everybody, Power of Goodbye, Beautiful Stranger, Ray of Light, Crazy For You, Cherish, Where's The Party, Rain, Hung Up, Like a Prayer, Borderline, Live To Tell. Cover Art was fan-made.Original can be found here: http://www.fanpop.com/spots/madonna/images...lbum-art-fanart [Note from Haus of Glitch: " I've been studying sacred geometry, and if you're an egghead like me, you might find some of this interesting. The megamix was composed on the basis of "3." (It's not an accident that it's 3:33 long.) I composed in 3 section. Section A was from the beginning through "Open Your Heart." Section B includes from "Music/Papa" to "Everybody." And Section C is from "Ray of Light" to the end. And within each of those sections, there are 3 sub-sections. The entire megamix is 106.5 measures long, meaning that the Phi Moment should arrive at 65.82 measures in. This occurs as we transition from Section B to Section C and "Ray of Light" begins playing. Now if you examine Section C by itself, it's 42.5 measures long. This means the Phi Moment of Section C should be the 91st measure, at exactly 3 minutes in. This is the moment in the song when I have the most samples playing at once:

Spanish painter Antonio De Felipe has re-worked and revisited with his irony some of pop history's most iconic album covers.

 

Madonna and her True Blue album cover couldn't be missed in this series of paintings titled Lpop that will be on show from May 29 2011 at the Centro Cultural Casa de Vacas in Madrid, Spain.

 

All the pop covers are been revisited adding themes or characters from comics or cartoons. In Madonna's case... it seems the ultimate vamp has been "vampirized"
