Ever wondered how it was like to be her MADGESTY? - Madonna

Her Madgesty has reportedly brought in more than $120 million from her European tour and has sold out 16 of the 17 shows.
And now, her madgesty herself, Madonna, is getting ready for the American start of her Sticky & Sweet outing.
She’s got five sold out shows just in the New York area!
According to her tour schedule her first concert will start on October 4th in New Jersey and will have four shows in Madison Square Garden.
According to news reports her show includes about “3500 wardrobe elements, 36 clothing designers, 100 pairs of kneepads, 12 trampolines, 69 guitars, a traveling personnel of 250, five keyboards for Kevin Antunes the musical director, three members of the Russian Romani (Gypsy) group the Kolpakov Trio, 18 dancers, and one set of Swavorski crystal encrusted ear phones.”
Aside from her extravagant concert, she’s also been receiving great reviews.
The London Times said, “In the premiere league of song-and-dance spectaculars, the queen of pop remains unrivalled and undefeated.”
The successful tour will then head out of NY and tour North America with stops in cities like Boston, Chicago, Denver, Toronto, Montreal, and ending in Miami on November 26th. She will also have a South American tour where she will head to Mexico City, where two shows sold 100,000 tickets in just three hours.
A fourth show had to be recently added in Buenos Aires as her other stops in South America are already sold out.

Madonna Jumps High

Madonna Jumps High

If music pre-sales was a high jump competition, Madonna would win without any contest. Just a few days ago, the Queen of Pop’s upcoming album ‘Hard Candy’ was at the number 18 spot on the Amazon best sellers list for CDs and it’s not even out until the end of April. Just yesterday, the album is already at number 2. It’s not quite the top, but she’s getting there. Mariah Carey managed to move up on the list as well. She’s at number 40 – a far distance from Madonna but at least she’s already on the list. Her record will be out a full 2 weeks before Madonna’s and she wasn’t even on the top 100 of the list a couple of days ago.

Madonna and Guy are Going Strong

Madonna’s rep Liz Rosenberg recently went on the record to say that the Queen of Pop and her hubby Guy Ritchie are still happily married. Everyone knows not to believe anything until they see proof and Madonna is more than happy to give us that. She and her director husband arrived arm-in-arm at upscale Italian restaurant Harry’s in Mayfair, London on Tuesday. It looks like they’re still spending time together. But again, I need some hard proof first. They could just be doing this for publicity’s sake. There were a lot of momentous events that Guy could have showed up with Madonna but he didn’t yet he chooses to go out to dinner with her on some random night after a lot of rumors came out about the 2 splitting up. Suspicious.

Madonna is $120 Million Richer

Madonna and a longtime friend were spotted after their workout at a Midtown Gym club on Thursday morning. Perhaps she’s flexing those muscles for when she has to carry a sack full of money some time soon.

The Queen of Pop will reportedly leave her record label Warner Music to sign a $120 million recording and touring deal with Live Nation Inc. Under the terms of the proposed deal, Madonna would receive a signing bonus of $18 million and $17 million advance for each of three albums.

Madonna has been with Warner Music since her 1983 self-titled debut album. We have to wonder what went wrong for them to part ways.
