Imagine a Christmas Number One for Madonna?

Posted: 03 November 2004 - From readaBet.com
Rumours have reached bookies William Hill that Madonna is considering releasing her version of the John Lennon classic 'Imagine', which she has been singing on her recent tour. As a result her odds have been cut from 16/1 to 12/1.
'Madonna has never had a Christmas No.1, I am sure she would like to add this coveted award to her impressive list of achievements. At present you can get 12/1 on her being No.1 this Christmas - a very good price as Hills do not include Band Aid III in their market and will be paying out on No.2 should they be in the top slot', said Hill's spokesman Rupert Adams.
Hills latest No.1 single odds: 7/4 Ronan Keating & Cat Stevens, 12/1 Madonna, Robbie Williams, 14/1 Ricky Gervais & Noel Gallagher, Tony Christie, 16/1 U2, Take That, Ice Cube, 20/1 Westlife, Kylie Minogue, Joss Stone, 40/1 Nadia Almada, Jordan, 50/1 Britney Spears.

Madonna is back in the studio recording, according to her Web site, though it is unknown if she is starting work on a new album.  MTV.com reports that the singer/actress/author is rumored to be collaborating again with producer William Orbit, as well as Depeche Mode's Martin Gore.

[wahaj]

yup. she's working on "liquid love" with william orbit. something she wanted to add on both music and american life but didn't fit in witht he rest of the album. william wanted to release it on one of his own albums, and madonna loved it too much for it to be released like that....so they're reworking it for this upcoming album.

and according to madonnalicious and other sites reported this a while ago aswell, that she's already recorded the soundtrack to her upcoming movie "hello sucker", and only went into the studio the other day to start recording her new "proper" album.

so 2005 should see, her versace collection in spring, along with her RIT dvd, her documentary and an album most likely in the summer.

[Koolan]

That's great news, seems like she'll be really busy next year. I've stopped buying her albums since Ray of Light, hopefully she can release something decent.

[wahaj]

news is in that she's also going to be working with stuart price, the guy who made x-tatic process.

there have also been some undecided sources claiming that mirwais may be back for a cameo with a jazz/techno sound....and we could see a visit from dallas austin and patrick leonard again.

to hear the original unreleased version of xtatic process, you can hear the electronica version here:

i can see why they removed the dance theme to it.

Madonna is the Worst Rock-Star Actor of All Time according to a poll conducted by Blender magazine.

Cast Away 'actress' Madonna, who seems best advised to stick to music if anything, has failed to impress critics and fans alike on the big screen.

Blender printed: "Invariably cast as an irresistible femme fatale - Breathless Mahoney in Dick Tracy, Susan in Desperately Seeking Susan - yet cannot 'do' sexy.

"Instead, she adopts the glassy-eyed expression of someone on a cocktail of prescription drugs and delivers her lines as if reading aloud from the letters of a stalker."

The top ten worst rock-star actors according to the poll:
1. Madonna
2. Bob Dylan
3. Mariah Carey
4. Jon Bon Jovi
5. Elvis Presley
6. Britney Spears
7. Vanilla Ice
8. Neil Diamond
9. Gene Simmons
10. Master P

Madonna Gets Busy On New Album

By Jonathan Cohen, N.Y.

Work is progressing on Madonna's next studio album, although details are scant at deadline. "If you haven't heard that Madonna is back in the studio recording, then you might be living under a rock," a statement on her official Web site says. "Madonna is busy in the studio collaborating with new producers that she has never worked with before."

At deadline, it was unknown when the as-yet-untitled album would be released, or with whom Madonna was working.

The set will be the follow-up to 2003's critically maligned album "American Life," which debuted at No. 1 on The Billboard 200, but posted the lowest sales of any Madonna album to-date (656,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan). In contrast, 2000's "Music" has shifted more than 2.89 million units.

Although it didn't fare well at retail, "American Life" spawned the massively successful Re-Invention tour, which grossed $125 million in box office receipts, according to Billboard Boxscore. "My Re-Invention tour was by far the most creatively satisfying experience I have ever had," Madonna told Billboard in December. "I was able to put everything I love into one entertaining event: film, music and dance."

As previously reported, a DVD chronicling Re-Invention is due by the end of the year.

Madonna snubs Vegas
(Tuesday August 16, 2005 04:34 PM)

Madonna is reported to have turned down an offer of $82 million to appear in her own show in Las Vegas.

The Queen of Pop is said to have been received the gargantuan approach from Vegas deal-maker Jack Wishna.

Wishna is understood to have attempted to woo Madonna with the promise of a show-stopping billing to compete with previous Vegas headliners Celine Dion and Elton John.

However, the New York Post reports that Madonna, who is celebrating her 47th birthday today, has rejected the deal, as she prepares to release a new album and take the record on tour.

The new LP, "Confessions On A Dancefloor", is due out in November, and is set to be precede by a single, "Hung Up".

[CelineTheBest5]

I wouldn´t see her lolol

[canadianpower]

First of all, Madonna has to become healthy again, before she's doing any Vegas things. The newspaper reported today Madonna is fallen from a horse and she broke her hand and collarbone, also nearly broke 3 rips.

[anja_celine]

I wouldn't wanna see her as well. She's a little too crazy for my taste

BTW, I just read that she had a horse riding accident where she broke several bones.....hmmmm.....

[Bellamy]

I'm sorry. I read the news wrong. actually Modonna refused it.  

[VanMerlin]

And I'm sure her fans will all be completely thrilled that she did so. You won't find any "she's ruining her career and needs to get out of Vegas" threads on the Madonna forums.

Besides, I can't see her and Elton in the same place. The city ain't big enough for the two of 'em!

The NY Post  isn't the most reliable source of news, imo.

Madonna makes front news about her accident

Neither would I.  I used to like Madonna in her material girl era but now...not so much.

Than again there aren't too many people I would spend that kind of money and travel to see.

i'm glad she refused it , but it says celine is a previous vegas headliner and i thought she was still a headliner

[Mozinha]

I hate Madonna... I always hated her since I was a child and she was starting her carear. I think she is... sick. Hate her.

What makes me laugh about these things is that everyone though Celine was going to fail in Vegas. Now everyone wants another artist to do the same.

[Koolan]

I wouldn't pay to see Madonna

No Vegas Show for Madonna

Madonna has reportedly rejected a US$82 million offer to appear in her own show in Las Vegas.
Promoter Jack Wishna is understood to have made Madonna the generous offer. Apparently, he wanted to put on a Madonna show to equal best-selling ones by Celine Dion and Sir Elton John.

However, Madonna has turned down the offer due to commitments relating to her upcoming new album and tour.

Confessions on a Dancefloor is due out in November, preceded by the single Hung Up.

I would NEVER go see Madonna, not even for free (no offence to Madonna fans) I'm glad she didn't accept because then her face would be everywhere in Vegas. :s

[raluca]

i don't care about madonna..i don't like her

[1Celine12]

I don't like her either.  I used to like her music, but now I don't anymore.

[SFchick]

Am i the only Madge fan around here???

The thing is Vegas wouldnt be good for her cos she doesnt have the strongest voice and it would ruin her!

However i have seen her 3 times in concert and everytime i walk away loving it, not cos of her voice but because she is a born entertainer! She doesnt proclaim to be a singer but an entertainer!
