How long did MDNA spend in the top seventy-five?

11 weeks, so if it stays there this week it will equal that.

That re-entry at #59 does seem quite oddly placed! :lol: Was the tour effect, I believe. It could be considered more impressive for Rebel Heart to match 12 weeks considering streaming wasn't available at the time to push MDNA down, although you could then argue that MDNA had no promotion.

#75 in the UK (down 5). It's a non-mover at #63 in the sales-only chart.

That's a not too bad fall, I imagine it's probably not going to fall too fast for the next few weeks.

#109 in Wednesday's update. Its total as of last week is 73k.

She left the top 100 to make room for Lifehouse <3

It's been climbing up the updates all week and is officially #95. MDNA had fallen out the Top 100 by this stage.

 

02-07-21-22-28-41-37-40-40-70-75-95- (Rebel Heart)

01-07-13-13-28-38-39-36-56-50-59-129- (MDNA)

#110 in Wednesday Update. Total sales stand at 74.1k.

#127 last week, taking its total to 75.4k (its total has been adjusted due to streams being added to album totals).

 

Currently #176 in today's update - performing similar to how MDNAdid when it left the Top 100, but with the 'BIM' video on its way, it'll climb back up soon enough.

Fell to #188 this week, total of 75.9k. Currently not in the Top 200 mids but I'm sure it'll be well back in before Sunday (assuming Madonna does get round to releasing 'BIM' vid!).

Rebel Heart leaves the Top 200 in the UK after 14 weeks - 5 less than MDNA. It sold 556 copies which was 56 copies from the chart, bringing its total to 76,490 (34.7% less than the 115,365 copies MDNA had sold at this point). Was hoping it'd be back in the chart from the mids, but clearly the effect from 'Bitch I'm Madonna' wasn't that big.

So. Barring any major promo or a re-release (neither of which will happen) 80k is about the ceiling.

Pretty much. Unless the tour can bring it back to the chart, although it'll be competing with the Christmas market.

 

People seem to be clinging on to 'Devil Pray' being single #4 since Madonna said it was one of her favourites; I'm certainly not expecting anything like that but it would at least give her some Radio 2 airplay which would in turn help the album. I can't say I can see it happening after 'Bitch I'm Madonna' has been such a non-event.

I think it will be a single too, but at this point it'll be lucky to sell ANY copies so yeah it won't be doing a thing to help the album.

I think they hoped BIM would be more successful in American with the video release. It had a right surge after the jimmy fallon performance I'm sure this is why it was felt they would make a video .

 

Madonna could always release a tour performance as a video for a future single .

Does anyone know which country this is from? I've never came across it before. Bought it, of course.

Russia - just under the prices and buying options, it says "Item location: Набережные Челны, Татарстан, Russian Federation".

Madonna's hacker has been jailed for 14 months:

 

An Israeli man who hacked Madonna's computer and leaked unreleased material has been jailed for 14 months.

 

Adi Lederman, 39, confessed to computer trespassing, infringement of privacy and property rights in a court in Tel Aviv, after initially being arrested in January earlier this year.

 

The investigation was assisted by the FBI after Madonna was forced to rush-release six new songs from her latest album Rebel Heart when unfinished demos started appearing online.

 

Madonna was originally planning to release her single 'Living for Love' on February 14, 2015, but had to release a Rebel Heart EP before Christmas on December 20, 2014 instead.

 

"The ease with which crimes such as this can be committed by those who have skills in the field, such as the accused, require an appropriate punitive response that has a deterrent and uncompromising message," the court said.

 

Lederman's conviction also includes hacking crimes against a number of other artists' computers, but they haven't been named, reports BBC News.

 

What's more, although the court confirmed Madonna was a victim of Lederman's hacking, they did not specify if his actions caused the leak of Rebel Heart.

 

Furthermore, Lederman has been fined 15,000 shekels (£2,600), but the court added that he has medical problems that have mitigated his sentence.

 

The hacker had previously made a fleeting appearance on A Star Is Born, which is Israel's version of American Idol.

Madonna's recent single 'Ghosttown' was "a guaranteed number one", according to collaborator Diplo - but he added that people just don't "want her to succeed".

 

The producer worked with Madonna on tracks for her latest album Rebel Heart, with its second single 'Ghosttown' failing to chart in the US and stalling at number 117 in the UK.

 

"She created the world we live in," Diplo said of Madonna in the latest issue of Rolling Stone. "It already sucks to be a woman in the music industry, but to be a boss woman is even harder.

 

"She sold out her tour in minutes, but no-one seems to want her to succeed - 'Madonna, we've been there, done that, now we're about Kim Kardashian'.

 

"Her song 'Ghosttown' was a guaranteed number one for anybody else, but she didn't get a fair shot. With 'Bitch I'm Madonna', everyone said there's no way it will go anywhere, but I'm like, 'Screw it, it represents you more than anything'."

 

Madonna recently released a remixed version of her 'Bitch I'm Madonna' music video, which included new scenes and extended cameos from its guest stars Beyoncé, Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry and Kanye West.

 

The star's 13th studio album Rebel Heart was released back in March and peaked at number two in both the UK and US.
