Madonna - MDNA - (March 26th, 2012)

[HolidayGuy]

^Yes- GI2M charted thanks to the Paul Oakenfold mix.

I imagine Interscope would want the soundtrack to sell something- recall the lack of commercial singles for "Beautiful Stranger" and "American Pie." BS was planned for release, but plans were axed- and in turn, the Austin Powers soundtrack scanned more than 1 million (it was a hit movie, too, which didn't hurt), but The Next Best Thing soundtrack failed to top even 250K, I think.

We will find out Tuesday, if not Monday night.

Nicki Minaj has moved her album to April 3:

April 3, 2012

Madonna - M.D.N.A.
JoJo - Jumping Trains
Nicki Minaj - Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded
Rascal Flatts - Changed

[Deleted]

If Nicki blocks Madonna that would be so akward.

[jumpb4uthink]

Competition or feeding off each other?

[HolidayGuy]

I can't imagine M's album will be released the same week as Nicki's- but if they did, I'd guess that Minaj's album would sell more in the end.

[Rose "Payola" Nylund]

I'll be getting both so I won't be negatively effecting either (for Canada's chart...)

[SPRΞΞ]

True or false?

Madonna has been super tightlipped about her halftime show at the February 5 Super Bowl in Indianapolis, but The Insider can exclusively report that one of the guest artists is "The Voice" coach Cee Lo Green!

We're told for the past two weeks Cee Lo has been traveling to New York to practice with Madonna. And he is expected to bring a new sound to some of Madonna's classic hits!

Both artists are known for their wild and creative styles, so it will be exciting to see what they cook up!

Could be true due to the fact that The Voice follows the Super Bowl on the tube.

[HolidayGuy]

^The Voice premieres after the Super Bowl, so could be good tie-in promo for the network. And that would be a better option than LMFAO.

[chartfreak]

Loving all these rumors.

Please change the release date. What happened to March 27?

[chartfreak]

Madonna is nearing both the release of her "Give Me All Your Luvin" music video, as well as her highly anticipated Super Bowl halftime performance. And it seems that these two milestones will have a few things in common.

First off, there's a good chance Nicki Minaj and M.I.A. will not only play parts in the video for the first single off Madge's M.D.N.A. release, dropping later this year, but as heavily speculated, they might take the stage with the Queen of Pop during the February 5 halftime show.

In true Madonna fashion, when MTV News caught up with her at the New York premiere of her film, "W.E.," she played it cool regarding rumors about the performance. Asked whether the ladies will join her at the Super Bowl, she coyly responded, "I am not saying 'Yes,' and I am not saying 'No.' " The only tease she wanted to give was, "Pom poms. That's all I can tell you."

When Madonna takes the halftime stage next month, her performance will be "imagined" by Cirque du Soleil and Madonna's longtime choreographer and creative director Jamie King. According to reports, the set list for the show will include "Luvin" as well as the Madonna classics "Ray of Light," Vogue" and "Music."

Of course, fans won't find the theme a far stretch for the Michigan native, who was a cheerleader back in her high school days. "I have eight minutes to set up my stage, 12 minutes to put on the greatest show on earth, and I have seven minutes to take it down so that football field is clean for the second half of the game," she told ABC News about the performance. "That's the challenge. How do you do that? I actually wanted to have 100 drummers come from the ceiling, a drumline from the ceiling."

So, what else will the Super Bowl show and her Megaforce-directed clip have in common? Madge simply told us, laughing, "Pom poms."

The video was shot in December with both Nicki Minaj and M.I.A. on set. The already buzzed-about shoot made headlines after Minaj tweeted that the icon had kissed her.

Nicki, M.I.A. and Cee-Lo (maybe). This will either be the world's greatest performance or a gigantic clusterfuck.

[SPRΞΞ]

As far as I know, it's April 3rd, the same week as Nicki's album. Provide a source and I'll change it.

When is the video release? I can't wait for the avi's to emerge.

[think pink.]

Hope the release date changes. I want M to debut at #1!

I'm betting on world's greatest performance. We are talking about Madonna for pete's sake!

[areyoureadytojump]

They will change the release date.

[HolidayGuy]

There still has not been an official press release announcing the album release date- 4/3 just happened to be posted on some sites for pre-order. So, yah, the final date may not be 4/3.

[floridagrl]

The Madonna Interview with US anchor Anderson Cooper will air on Thursday, February 2nd, it has been announced.

Anderson's official website teases us about the hour-long exclusive interview calling it "one revealing hour… her secrets… her past… her plans for her Super Bowl performance… and so much more!"





Thanks to Madonnatribe!

Can't wait!

[HolidayGuy]

Not sure how much she'll discuss- this took place when the GG nominations were announced, so it's a tad "out of date." But I'll still watch, of course. :)

[floridagrl]

Seriously, I don't know how I feel about all these guest for her Superbowl performance. I hope this not true. I was looking forward to La Ciccone alone!!!

LMFAO to perform with Madonna at Super Bowl

Will.i.am has confirmed that LMFAO will perform with Madonna at this year’s Super Bowl in America.

The duo, who are signed the Black Eyed Peas star’s Will.i.am Music Group, had been rumored as one of the surprise guests at the event on 5th February.

Speaking to Capital FM about Madonna’s set, Will.i.am, who performed last year’s Half-Time Show with Black Eyed Peas, said he was going to attend the game to watch LMFAO.

“I’m going to the Super Bowl this year to see my group LMFAO perform with Madonna,” he said.

“Check that out, Will.i.am Music Group is pretty freaking two for two. One year the Super Bowl the next year another group part of the Super Bowl in collaboration with Madonna. That’s still happening.”

Nicki Minaj and M.I.A have also been linked to Madonna’s Half-Time Show performance as they feature on her new single ‘Give Me All Your Luvin’.

But Madonna has so far refused to confirm the acts, only hinting recently that the performance will feature pom-poms.

^I know. She can do it by herself.

[HolidayGuy]

I'm no fan of LMFAO, but I'm confident that the Queen will put on an enjoyable half-time show.

[SuperTrouper]

LMFAO? Cee-Lo? Nicki Minaj alone was more than enough.

[MikeCheck12]

LMFAO.

[chartfreak]

I see a Party Rock/Music Mash up.

I think GMAYL, Vogue, Music and ROL are confirmed songs.

[Deleted]

OMG @ all these guests. I hope they don't take the focus off Madonna.

[chartfreak]

Now im irritated, we only get 12 minutes of Madonna, it needs to be her, her, her. Maybe they are just dancing weird on stage. Is she that nervous that she wants others with her to take the focus off.

[HolidayGuy]

^No- more likely that these are younger acts, and M wouldn't mind appealing to younger fans who like them.

[Keelzit]

Hopefully this won't turn to 'Britney is performing at the Billboard Awards!!!11!' I wanna see Hung Up being performed too. Anyone knows its digital sales?
