April 2, 200619 yr Author RUMOR From Victoria Newton's "Bizarre" column on The Sun: "DJ Paul Oakenfold is to spin his magic on a special remix of Madonna's No. 1 hit "Sorry". Paul, who now lives in LA, told me it would be a "dancey version" and would feature in Madge's world tour, which kicks off on May 21. ............................................................................................................................................................. I HAVE managed to obtain the first details of MADONNA’s forthcoming world tour. And if you thought re-Invention was special, this one is shaping up to be even more spectacular. Her Madjesty is recreating wild scenes from notorious New York nightclub Studio 54  famous for its debauched antics and drug-fuelled dancing in the Seventies. The Queen of Pop is even learning to krump  a cool hip-hop dance based on body-popping and breakdancing. And I reckon krumping  also known as clowning after its inventor, hip-hop dancer Tommy The Clown  could be as big as the Vogue craze she started in the Eighties. The dance featured in Rize, a documentary by film-maker David LaChapelle. A source said: “Madonna has been practising krumping ever since she filmed the videos to Hung Up and Sorry. “It started as un underground dance in gangland LA and Madonna now wants to make it her own. “Madge has ordered a unique spinning platform to be designed so she and her dancers can recreate Studio 54’s extravagant scenes. “She has also ordered dozens of disco balls to decorate the stage with authentic Seventies lighting.†The show will open with a Disco Queen section, featuring girls in sparkling suits, male dancers dressed as pimps and more dancers roller-skating. Another section, American Land, will indulge Madonna’s obsession with horses, with video walls showing footage of her riding scantily clad in the pouring rain. A third part, Oriental And Eastern, will see Madonna joined on stage by a Kabbalah singer to perform a remix of her brilliant album track Isaac. One section will have a Parkour specialist  the wacky sport on the BBC promotional film with a bloke running across London rooftops. Madge will also showcase some new music, if her label Warner give the go-ahead. And I have the provisional setlist on above right to prove it. Producer STUART PRICE has been working on Keep The Trance and History, which I hear are both killer tracks, and he has completely reworked Erotica and Who’s That Girl, which are almost unrecognisable.

April 7, 200619 yr More Madonna Wembley shows announced Source: Music Week Three additional Madonna dates at Wembley Arena have been announced, after tickets for the two previously advertised shows sold out in minutes this morning. Madonna will now be playing the newly-reopened Arena on August 9,10 and 12 in addition to the previously-announced shows on August 1 and 3. Tickets for the shows went on sale at 9am this morning and attracted a crowd of around 350 people to queue outside the Wembley box office. Despite the tickets only going on sale today, earlier in the week there were tickets on sale on eBay for £1,450.
April 8, 200619 yr 80 Quid basically for one gig is fukkin' outrageous.... You could do two days at Reading, Leeds or the London O2 Wireless festival in Hyde Park for that (and see far more interesting acts such as Depeche Mode, Goldfrapp, Massive Attack, Flaming Lips and loads of others....). And will they have even fixed Wembley Arena in time for the shows anyway...? Last I heard, Wembley Arena was flooded and was gonna be out of action for months, many gigs having to be re-diverted to what is basically an air-craft hanger in close proximity to the the Arena, and from what people who went to the A-Ha gig there told me it has utterly sh!t acoustics.....Hmmmm, yeah, that'll be £80 - £160 well spent....
April 16, 200619 yr Author madonnalicious has heard from insiders that HBO are highly likely to be broadcasting a live show from the Confessions Tour - the tour date currently scheduled is Madonna's fifth night at Madison Square Garden on Tuesday 18 July.
