all about Madonna

Plans for Madge’s next tour are taking shape and it promises to be her most ambitious yet.
The singer’s Confessions on A Dancefloor World Tour hasn’t been officially confirmed but I can reveal what’s up her sleeve.
Her shows, which will see her performing past and present hits, will start in America in May before coming to Europe and finishing in September.
It will also see her play the Czech Republic and Russia for the first times.

Madonna has laughed off tabloid allegations her relationship with British producer Stuart Price is anything more than plutonic.
The Hung Up singer has been plagued by rumours her marriage to Guy Ritchie is in trouble because of her closeness to Confessions on a Dancefloor collaborator Price.
But Madonna and her Snatch director husband, who have five-year-old son Rocco together, insist their relationship is as strong as ever.
Her spokesperson comments, “She and Guy had a big laugh over the recent reporting of the special friendship with Stuart Price.”

Madonna may lead a workaholic lifestyle but she still does a cracking job bringing up her children.
Son Rocco, who she had with hubby Guy, has turned out to be a bit of a whiz in the classroom.

Madonna and hubby Guy Ritchie have put on a show of togetherness and stepped out in public – to prove their marriage isn’t falling apart.
The Queen Of Pop booked a table at a posh Mayfair restaurant on Thursday amid claims their relationship has reached breaking point.
Madge, wrapped in a warm tweed coat, smiled as she and the Lock Stock director turned up at pal Marco Pierre White’s eaterie Luciano for a slap-up meal.
The singer had been left fuming after it was claimed she was enjoying a “special working relationship”? with her musical collaborator Stuart Price.
Stuart, musical director on her Re-Invention tour, co-wrote much of her current album, Confessions On A Dancefloor.
Reports suggested his friendship with Madonna was driving her and Brit flick filmmaker Guy apart.
But last night a spokesman for the Hung Up star insisted “She and Guy had a big laugh over the recent reporting of the special friendship with her songwriting/producing partner, dance music genius Stuart Price.”?
And she added the persistent rumours of trouble in the Ritchie marriage are “so not true.”?
There’s no doubt that Madonna is working overtime in the run-up to her world tour which will kick off in the US in early summer.
She has also been spending up to 15 hours a day rehearsing for her duet with the Gorillaz at next week’s Grammys.
So while Guy has been kicking around the house being bored, Mrs Ritchie has been prancing about in her pink leotards rehearsing dance moves.
A source told me: “Madonna and Guy’s marriage has always been extremely fiery but they make no secret of that. She was attracted to Guy because he is his own man and he stands up to her.
“She is a strong, bossy person, too, and she likes to have things her own way. Often it’s fireworks between them.
“It is fair to say their relationship has been under huge strain because of Madonna’s excessive workload recently.
“She has thrown herself 100 per cent into promoting her album and has little time left to spend with Guy.
“But he’ll get over it. He is going to the Grammys with her next week and he will be at her side at the Brit Awards the following week.”?
Perhaps it might be a good idea to say “Sorry”? to Guy now, Madge even if you don’t mean it!

Pop superstar Madonna has furiously denied reports her close relationship with producer Stuart Price is threatening her marriage to Guy Ritchie.
British newspaper The Daily Mirror, today claimed the Hung Up singer spends all her available time with the 28-year-old musician – despite work on their project album Confessions On A Dancefloor having long finished.
A source tells the tabloid, “It’s no secret that Madonna and Stuart have developed a special working relationship. They enjoy each other’s company and respect each other. She confides in him and regards him as one of the most important people in her life.”
But the 47-year-old singer’s publicist Liz Rosenberg insists Madonna has only sisterly feelings towards her young colleague.
She says, “There’s no strain in Madonna’s marriage. Her relationship with Guy is good. They are happy.
