^just the one Target you were at. Doesn't mean all of them. Doesn't matter really, anyways, as digital is the way to go nowadays.

^I've been to 6. I kind of know what I am talking about.
They have removed the Madonna section. Mariah is gone too.
Both do not have current albums out so Target probably returned them or did not order more once they sold out.

I bought the Express Yourself single on 3/17. I noticed it was the #1 seller off the album in terms of popularity that day on Itunes in the US. To bad we won't really know what kind of increase it had, unless someone askes Billboard directly, let them know that fans did this. I know that one guy at Billboard is a big fan of M. He did the Ask Billboard column, but I have been so out of the loop with Billboards and the charts overall. :(

Even if they did carry some, it probably would only be TIC, and maybe one other thing. Now if she releases a new album and they refuse to carry it, that's a different story. But who cares about buying an album like True Blue at Target anyways?

I saw the 1-cd Celebration at Walmart today for $10.00. Best Buy has it for $13.99. Target doesn't have any Madonna albums anymore. Oh no! :o At some of the locations in Northern California, I see just a couple of copies of the single disc version of Celebration, a few of the CD/DVD of Sticky & Sweet, and occasionally Hard Candy. They have a much smaller selection of music than they did a few months ago. I haven't received the weekly ad in my Sunday newspaper in a while, but I do check the ad on website and it seems that they have either a couple new releases mentioned each week if they do at all. ^I've been to 6.

Target has a wider selection of music for sale on their website including older releases which they would probably not have in store unless they were doing some special sale or promotion. I saw her debut album, Like A Virgin, and True Blue for sale there about 3 or 4 years ago.

^Are you talking about Walmart in the first part of your post?
Walmart has seriously cut down their music section which is sad because they sell the most cds in the USA.
Walmart right now has both TIC and GHV2 for $9.

Madonna Donates Song To Japan Benefit AlbumMarch 25, 2011The Live version of Madonna's "Miles Away" is included on the "Songs For Japan" album to be released on iTunes today. Taken from her 2008 "Sticky & Sweet Tour", "Miles Away" is featured along with songs by REM, U2, Sting, Justin Timberlake, Katy Perry, Beyonce and many more... All of the monies earned from "Songs for Japan" will be directed to the Japanese Red Cross Society (JRCS) to support its disaster relief efforts. The society will use the funds for the ongoing provision of immediate relief and for eventual recovery support to the affected population. The artists participating on Songs for Japan, the major music labels - EMI Music, Sony Music Entertainment, Universal Music Group and Warner Music Group - and music publishers have waived their royalties and proceeds from the worldwide sales of the album to ensure that the JRCS receives as much support as possible from this global initiative. In addition, iTunes will donate all proceeds from the album's worldwide sales to the benefit of the JRCS. Visit your local iTunes Store now to download. www.madonna.com

Adele equals Madonna album record28 March 2011Adele has matched Madonna's record with nine weeks at number one in the UK album chart - the longest for a female solo artist.Her second album, 21, has now spent the same length of time at the top spot as Madonna's first greatest hits record, The Immaculate Collection, in 1990. The Londoner's debut album, 19, remained at number two. Meanwhile in the singles chart, the singer's track Someone Like You climbed back up to number one. Last week the song was toppled by Nicole Scherzinger's Don't Hold Your Breath after previously spending four weeks at the top of the chart. Adele still has two other singles in the top 40 - Rolling in the Deep at number nine and Make You Feel My Love at 36, the Official Charts Company said. The singer-songwriter is also enjoying continued success in the US, where 21 also regained the number one spot in the Billboard album chart last week. Earlier in the year she became the first living artist since the Beatles to have two top five hits in the UK single and album charts simultaneously. www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-1286064Wow! Madonna held that record for a long time--21 years. Bizarre that the album named 21 tied the 21 year record.

Nicki Minaj 'wants Madonna, Rihanna for vid'March 30, 2011By Lewis Corner, Music Reporter Nicki Minaj has asked a number of high-profile female stars to appear in her new music video. The 'Moment 4 Life' rapper, who mentions a total of 16 female celebrities in her new single 'Girls Fall Like Dominoes', revealed that she wants them all to appear in the video. "There's every chance the big names will oblige. Everyone loves Nicki. It's already causing a stir in various camps," a source told The Sun. Minaj tweeted her plans to organize cameos earlier in the week, writing: "Two questions: How many divas did I name in Girls Fall Like Dominoes' and who should make a cameo in the video?" Stars the rapper mentions include Mariah Carey, Madonna, Angelina Jolie, Beyoncé and Rihanna amongst others. Minaj recently revealed that she has submitted a verse to be included on Lil Wayne's upcoming album. She has also recorded a collaboration with David Guetta and Flo Rida, which is thought to be released soon. www.digitalspy.com/music/news/a311846/nicki-minaj-wants-madonna-rihanna-for-vid.html

I'm posting this here because, well, this could affect Madonna. Can you image if this happens? If Live Nation owns her music, they would be able to release the stuff we have been waiting eons to get. Live Nation Puts In Bid For Warner Recorded MusicMarch 31, 2011 By Ed Christman with Ray Waddell Live Nation, the concert and ticketing company, has put in a bid for the Warner Music Group. The emergence of Live Nation as one of the bidders for the Warner Music Group brings to three the number of strategic players involved in the auction. But unlike the other two strategic suitors, Sony Music Entertainment and BMG Chrysalis, Live Nation has only bid on WMG's recorded music operations, according to sources who spoke with the Wall Street Journal and the New York Post; the bid has been confirmed by Billboard.biz. Live Nation chairman Irving Azoff has a long and colorful history in the record business, beginning first in artist management and then heading up MCA Records during the 1980s before launching Warner-affiliated Giant Records, which was in operation during the 1990s. Should the WMG private equity owners decide to sell the major piecemeal, that could bring Azoff back into the mainstream record business. However, such a deal would likely require close scrutiny from governmental regulatory agencies. But its bid for WMG comes only after it largely abandoned plans to compete with record labels by signing superstar artists like Madonna and Jay-Z to 360-deals, also known as multi-rights deals; the company has said it will not sign any more artists to 360 deals.While some speculated that Live Nation would distribute albums from the artists that it had already signed, Azoff never specified how the company would handle those records. For instance, when asked if Live Nation would issue recorded content, he told Billboard, "Live Nation prior to the merger entered into some of these all-rights deals, so there are certain artists, Madonna being one of them, [for whom] there is a recorded music strategy. Once she gets the album recorded, we'll sit down with her and her manager Guy Oseary and figure out what's best for the record. It has to start with the music." Certainly, the acquisition of WMG would answer that question, but it seems unlikely that it was the main motivation behind Live Nation's bid. More likely, it is looking for synergies in other aspects of its business, like the FrontLine Managment operation and its direct-sales to consumers businesses. Meanwhile, sources indicate that the WMG auction could come to a head sometime in April. Other bidders include Tamares, a private investment group headed up by Finnish billionaire businessman Poju Zabludowicz; Guggenheim Partners, a principal owner of Billboard parent company Prometheus Group; Access Industries chairman Len Blavatnik, who already holds a 2% stake in WMG; and European private-equity firm Permira; supermarket magnate Ron Burkle's Yucaipa Companies;. and private-equity firms Platinum Equity and the Gores Group, who in the past have all declined to comment or have not responded to inquiries about their involvement in the auction. Representatives for WMG and Live Nation declined to comment for this report. www.billboard.biz/bbbiz/industry/record-labels/live-nation-puts-in-bid-for-warner-recorded-1005106952.story

Britney Spears Snares Sixth No. 1 Album On Billboard 200 April 06, 2011 By Keith Caulfield, Los Angeles Britney Spears flies in at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with her sixth chart-topping album, "Femme Fatale," selling 276,000 copies in its first week, according to Nielsen SoundScan. The feat ties her for the third-most No. 1s among women with Mariah Carey and Janet Jackson. Only Barbra Streisand (nine No. 1s) and Madonna (seven) have earned more No. 1 albums.www.billboard.biz/bbbiz/charts-articles/chart-alert/britney-spears-snares-sixth-no-1-album-on-1005113292.story

I went to my usual Target location and they don't sell any Madonna or Mariah anymore. ??? They have a lot less music than they did the last time I went.

physical cd's are on their way out anyways, so who cares. If a new Madonna album came out tomorrow, i would download it so i could have it NOW! I don't care about album artwork. Never did really. And all the cd's i do have just collect dust in a drawer. Everything i listen to i copied to itunes. This is nothing to worry about.

This would be so cool if Andrew and Madonna worked together again. Another Golden Globe for Madonna? Another Oscar for Andrew? Any new project from the Queen will be great. It's too quiet in her camp!! Madonna - Madonna For Sunset Boulevard Remake?08 April 2011Andrew Lloyd Webber thinks Madonna would be a ''great Norma Desmond'' in a remake of 'Sunset Boulevard'. Madonna is being pursued for a role in a remake of 'Sunset Boulevard'. The 52-year-old star - who will soon release her directorial debut 'W.E.', a two-tier tale about the relationship between Britain's King Edward VIII and his wife Wallis Simpson, and a modern day woman called Wally - is wanted by maestro Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber for a reimagining of the classic 1950 movie in the role of Norma Desmond, played by Gloria Swanson. He told Piers Morgan: "I bet you this never, ever, happens, but you know who would make a great Norma Desmond on screen? Madonna. "She's the right age. I've not got through to her. She hasn't taken my call this time." Andrew previously worked with Madonna as the composer and songwriter on 'Evita' - about the life of B-list Argentinean actress Eva Duarte - for which he won an Oscar for Best Music and Madonna picked up a Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actress. The original 'Sunset Boulevard' tells the tale of a screenwriter who scripts a story for a faded silent-movie star. It won three Oscars at the 1951 Academy Awards, including Best Music. www.contactmusic.com/news.nsf/story/madonna-for-sunset-boulevard-remake_1211722

"For now working on the score to her movie, but is very happy to be in a recording studio. Stay tuned". Is Modonna actually writing the music score of her film or is she just overseeing it's process?? The score is one of the most important assets to any film.
