all about Madonna

Superstar Madonna has already named her forthcoming new album – the disc will be called Defying Gravity.
The Material Girl’s last album American Life – released in 2003 – was critically panned due to the songs’ strong anti-Republican content, and only three singles were released from the CD.
But Madonna, 46, has written eight tracks so far, including a single of the album’s name, and hopes she will be more successful this time.
An industry insiders tell Britain’s The Sun newspaper, “Madonna has played her new material to Warner label bosses and they love it. “There is a rockier edge and the usual electronic influence. The label are really excited and believe it is full of hit singles.”

Madonna has hit out at reports she is undergoing fertility treatment to conceive a second child.
British magazine Star today claimed the Material Girl was trying out “Indian fertility treatments” to help her become a mother for the third time at the age of 47.
Madonna is quoted in the magazine saying, “I’m going to have fun with my husband and see what happens.”
But a spokesperson for the star insists, “There is absolutely no truth to that story.”

Madonna made a surprise appearance on the red carpet at the UK premiere of Sin City, leaving one of the film’s stars speechless.
The singer turned up at the Empire Cinema in London’s Leicester Square with film director husband Guy Ritchie.
The thriller Sin City stars Brittany Murphy, Mickey Rourke and Clive Owen.
Murphy, who was signing autographs for fans outside the cinema when the famous couple arrived unexpectedly, admitted being star-struck.
“She’s my idol,” said the 27-year-old, who also appeared in 8 Mile with rapper Eminem.

The film, based on a novel by comic book writer Frank Miller, was up for the Palme d’Or prize at the Cannes Film Festival last week.
Sin City director Robert Rodriguez and actors Jessica Alba and Michael Madsen were also at the screening.
