If you can’t wait for the music from the Madonna episode of Glee (me me me) then head on over to Amazon.com and pre-order Glee: The Music, The Power of Madonna! The episode itself does not air until April 20th and the album will be released in conjunction with the episode but you can reserve your copy now. The album will feature Madonna classics such as, Like a Prayer, Vogue, Like a Virgin, and others. Originally the album was supposed to be released when the show premiered on April 13th but producers decided to move it to the following week so it would come out the same time the episode aired.
Tell me, are you going to buy the music from the Madonna episode? My answer: HELL YES!
In the new issue of InStyle, Gwen Stefani frets that, at age 40, she may be running out of time to have another child. The American Academy of Reproductive Medicine would agree — by their estimate, at age 41, 29% of women are infertile. Wait! Step back from the windowsill! Fertility treatments and a positive attitude can greatly increase those odds. Just think: Salma Hayek, Nicole Kidman, Halle Berry, Julianne Moore, and Annette Benning all gave birth at age 41 (on the flip side, Celine Dion, now that same age, has been candid about her futile attempt to conceive baby #2).
Check out a few more celeb success stories:
What’s in a name? Marcia Gay Harden and Marcia Cross both gave birth to twins at age 44. Cross had two girls. Harden – who also has an older daughter – got one of each, girl Julietta and boy Hudson.
Not only did Jane Seymour give birth to twins at age 45, she wrote a book about it! Two at a Time: Having Twins: The Journey Through Pregnancy and Birth chronicles her own pregnancy, and also offers advice to other women expecting a duo.
Mariska Hargitay had son August (above with husband Peter Hermann) when she was 42. As for balancing work with family, August quickly became a regular on the Law & Order SVU set.
Madonna welcomed Rocco, her son with Guy Ritchie, when she was 41 — and then went on to adopt two children, David and Mercy, from Malawi.
Lesson? Fertility is a roll of the dice (just ask Holly Hunter and Geena Davis, who both had twins at age 47!). And adoption is always an option. Especially if you have the means and resources of a megawatt international celebrity.

A new deal signed by Michael Jackson’s estate and Sony shatters Jay-Z’s $150 million record. Staggering new sum…
Even in death, Michael Jackson is breaking new records. The King of Pop’s estate has signed the biggest recording deal in history: a $200 million guaranteed contract with Sony Music Entertainment for 10 projects over seven years, according to a person familiar with the deal.
The record-breaking contract through 2017 could be worth up to $250 million if certain conditions are met. One of the albums will be of never-before-released Jackson recordings that will come out in November, the person said.
Future projects may also include a video game, a DVD compilation of videos and a rerelease of “Off the Wall,” Jackson’s fifth studio album, which first came out in 1979, accompanied by some unreleased material. Before his sudden death in June at age 50, the pop star had wanted to reissue the album, people familiar with the deal said.
Including the more than 5 million copies of that special release, Jackson has sold some 31 million albums since his death, about two-thirds of them outside the United States.
The landmark deal is worth more than all other benchmarks, such as the all-encompassing rights deals that concert promoter and ticket-seller Live Nation Entertainment Inc. had previously signed with Madonna at $120 million and Jay-Z for $150 million.
Jackson’s deal is even more remarkable because it does not include royalties from merchandise – Read full article…

With Energy drinks on the surge as many youths use it as an aphrodisiac (Intensifies sexual desires) and as we know in the music industry sex sells. There is a big campaign between Red Bull and Monster Energy Drinks to start a huge rivalry in a limit partnership.
Red Bull and Monster Energy Drinks are siding up with many Pop artists in a huge campaign to make Red Bull and Monster in the energy drinks market what Coke and Pepsi is in the soft drinks market. .
We are hoping to get sponsorship from Monster, because it is our choice of energy drinks. Monster is basically the same thing as Red Bull meaning it works the same, however Monster give you double the bang for your buck. They are both equally quality drinks and the goal is to make consumers choose between the two as they corner the market with hop Hip Hop Commercials on stations like MTV, BET, VH1 and Nationwide Radio Airplay that caters to the consumer group targeted by this campaign.
There couldn’t be a better summation for The Marriage Ref, NBC’s new show that premiered after the Winter Olympics. The show basically consists of couples submitting their “issues” for verdict from a celebrity panel and in front of a mass audience.
I’ve only seen part of one show to check it out and have big problems with it.
Let’s just say that the show left on me with a not-so-pretty impression. My thoughts about the show were even more solidified when looking at it through the convictions instilled in me from my youth.
What the show essentially does is make a spectacle of marriage by thrusting it in the public square, displaying a couple’s problems for mass strangers to basically ridicule.
A couple’s problems submitted before a celebrity panel only adds insult to injury…as if these celebrities know how to keep their own marriages in tact. Someone like Madonna? Or Alec Baldwin?
Please…
The stories of these celebrities (in and of themselves) are to be pitied and not laughed at.
But having them on the show’s “marriage panel” exposes the show as a faux solution to really dealing with a dynamic duo’s problems.
The Marriage Ref hijacks the sacredness of a couple working through their problems, strengthening their marriage in the privacy of their own home.
With the Marriage Ref, the institution becomes a big clown show, a circus.
Think twice before laughing at what really isn’t comedy.
Purim is the only time a boy or girl can walk down the street with face paint, Mickey Mouse ears, or a pink cowboy hat and this is considered ok and even the slightest bit mandatory. This is what I love about living in Israel.
I had the privilege this year of celebrating two very different Purims in two very different cities.
Purim in Tel Aviv happened on Saturday night, February 27, though I only went out Friday night.
That didn’t stop me from hearing the noise on the streets–people yelling, screaming, celebrating, loud firecrackers going off–even when I was in the house.(Guess that’s what you get from living on Dizengoff.)
In Tel Aviv, I was a girl from the Eighties!
I may just look like Madonna on acid! Hey, it’s Purim!
I celebrated in my favorite bar with my best friends in Tel Aviv and the place was crowded with costumes–pirates, bumblebees, a caveman, Lady Gaga, flappers, and more.
Purim in Jerusalem stars on Sunday night, February 28, but I headed there for a party and Purim seudah on Monday, March 1.
For those that don’t know, Purim occurs in Jerusalem one day later then the rest of Israel because some of the cities in Persia where the story of Esther and Haman occurred celebrated one day later then others. One city, Shushan, celebrated a day later and wanted to honor Jerusalem as a holy city in their celebration (No one was living in Israel at the time.) Thus, Jerusalem has come to celebrate Purim one day later than everyone else in the country. How’s that for special?
I celebrated Purim in Jerusalem by visiting the Western Wall and celebrating with a religious family I know from New Jersey who lives in the neighborhood of Ramot. Because they are quite observant, I respectfully followed their rules of modesty and made sure my outfit included a skirt and that my elbows and collarbone were covered.
I was a gypsy. Luckily, rules of strict black and white didn’t apply here but I did make sure that my elbows, knees, and collarbone were covered.
(PS You don’t see it in this picture but I made sure to wear a white shirt under the red peasant shirt to respect those rules of modesty.)
While Tel Avivians do have their family seudah (holiday meal) on Purim and make customary gift bags (mishloach manot) for friends and family, much of the atmosphere for twentysomethings was focused on going to clubs and partying.
Quite different from the Jerusalem atmosphere where people were milling the streets but parties happened inside the home. Surprisingly, I didn’t see too many people dressed up on the streets (in comparison to Tel Aviv) and later learned this was maybe because 1) A lot of people keep their costumes for the home and 2) much of the Haredim don’t dress up at all.
The thing that sets my outfits apart from others is–I used all of my own clothes. I bougth maybe one or two accessories for each but the basic outfits came from my own closet. Though, I would never NEVER wear them in daily life the way I put them together here.
The white shirt with the face is from Castro. The face is a little loud so I usually top it with a cardigan.
The pink mesh tank is usually worn over something black. I have a black mesh tank in the same color and usually I layer the two (pink underneath, black on top) for a cool effect. Tank is from H&M
Leggings are from American Apparel. They are very statement-making so I usually wear them with long black boots to throw off the bright colors.
The red peasant top is actually a tunic and I love to wear it with leggings. It’s from Alloy.
The black skirt is the most gypsy-ish I could find. I borrowed it from my roommate.
I covered the skirt with scarves in the mismatched nature of a gypsy. The purple animal print (not very gypsy, mind you) is Inbal Gvili. Other scarves were from Israeli stores Castro and Profil.
Mom’s Madonna
Front Porch
Albuquerque, New Mexico Karen Rivera
Most of the houses in my neighborhood have a backyard Madonna keeping watch. This one, graceful and simple, is perfectly placed on a pale stucco front porch. Freshly painted and draped with a rosary made form silver roses and small birds, this front porch Madonna adds color and spirituality.
My friend Steven Christopher Wallace texted me today to tell me he had finally watched one of my favorite movies, “To Live and Die in L.A.” which he had never seen before due to extreme procrastination. The conversation brought on one of my childhood flashbacks. I remember in perhaps 1986, as a wide eyed, jean jacket wearing, mirror tinted sunglasses sporting, prepubescent 80’s kid, that one of the only times I ever bonded with my stepdad was one afternoon we sat on the couch and watched “To Live and Die in LA” in its entirety followed by a basketball game(the Chicago Bulls vs. someone.) It is one of the few memories I have of being a child where there was not some sort of anxiety or childhood trauma involved. And I use the word “trauma” loosely as in from the perspective of a child. Getting grounded no TV for a week for sneaking your football back from the 3rd grade teacher who unjustly took it from you…or having to sleep with the lights out with a talking Pee Wee Herman doll visible in your room is traumatic to a kid.
Speaking of the 80’s, whenever I hear popular 80’s songs I am reminded of how I comically misheard the lyrics to many of them:
Take for example the chorus of Madonna’s “Material Girl” which I heard many times being dragged shopping with my Dynasty era, diet pepsi drinking 80’s mom. Waiting hours and hours while my mother spent ungodly amounts of time browsing and trying on shoulder padded clothing and pantyhose at fashionation (a hip 80’s clothing store not to be confused with the porno boutique chain “fascinations”)
“everybody’s living in a material world, and i am a material girl”
is how it went, but I mistook the lyrics for:
“cause everybody’s living in a cereal world, and I am in a cereal bowl”
And I REALLY thought those were the words to the song.
another fine example was how I thought the song “The Heat is On” was really “Peter’s Uncle” (I had a friend named Peter, though why someone would be writing a song about his uncle and it subsequently playing on nationally syndicated radio was outside the bb gun scope of my logic at the time)
I still remember the disappointment while riding in a truck when I told my own uncle how “I really like that song that just played, “Peter’s Uncle” only to have him get briefly confused, laugh and then tell me “that’s not Peter’s Uncle” it’s “The Heat is on.”
And so it is. In the real world of material girls, here I am a serial boy, in a cereal bowl, living in a cereal world…kind of explains a lot. I’ve often wondered if I was perhaps the ONLY person out of the millions who heard these songs to interpret the lyrics in this fashion.
I recently came across a website for creating fantasy music festival lineups. Needless to say, I got excited about it!
I’ve been such a terrible poster lately, but hopefully me sharing this awesome website will make you like me again. Sooo, here’s my music festival choices. Do you agree with me? How much could I charge for tickets?
My overall eargasmic concert experience with an indie rock emphasis:
If you can’t read the picture, the bands are: Tegan and Sara, Death Cab for Cutie, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Fiona Apple, Guster, The National, Phantom Planet, The xx, Uh Huh Her, Phoenix, St. Vincent, Ra Ra Riot, Florence + the Machine, Wintersleep, Metric.
If I started a dance party music festival…
Shiny Toy Guns, Madonna, Prince, La Roux, Lady Gaga, Peaches, MGMT, Of Montreal, Freezepop, Amanda Blank, Shwayze, M.I.A, The Veronicas, Moby, 3OH!3
If it was 30-40 years ago…
The Doors, Steve Miller Band, Pink Floyd, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Jimi Hendrix, Styx, Queen, Rush, Jefferson Airplane, The Clash, XTC, Tom Petty, The Doobie Brothers, Steppenwolf, Carole King.
Ok, so maybe I am only posting this so I had the opportunity to type out the above title. Digital Spy is reporting that Madonna is hell bent on fostering her Latin lover, Jesus Luz’s recording…career.
Apparently Madonna has floated all of the recording session expenses and set Jesus up with remixer Victor Calderone (‘Frozen’). Reportedly, Jesus was granted a two-single deal, after the refusal by Warner, Madonna’s former record label, of an entire album.
If true, this is almost as bad as when Britney was paying the bill for KFed’s budding rap career. As one member of a pop forum community so astutely put it: ‘Madonna can’t even earn a #1 these days, what hope does she possible have for Jesus?’
I think Madonna should nix this idea straight away and go back to recording a Confessions part II album.
What are your thoughts? Are you ready for international pop star Jesus? Sound off in the comments or @popboi on twitter.
Boys in heavy metal band on the verge of rocking the planet meet 13-year-old girl. Girl hates boys in band. Boys in band batter a smurf. The private yacht they are all on sinks. Boys in band are marooned on a desert island with only a pink Hello Kitty ghetto blaster, a case of batteries, the 13-year-old’s 1980s pop music CD collection and 158 cases of schnapps for company.
Ah… how often have we seen that sad story play out?
Such is the legend of Rock Sugar (full legend here). However, for the band, and fans of great music, there is a happy ending.
Twenty years later, the band were rescued by tuna fishermen and now they are back and ready to rock on from where they left off. With a twist.
Two decades of listening to 80s teenybopper music has left a mark – Popholm syndrome, as the band amusingly describe it – and now Rock Sugar is a musical nexus where the heaviest of metal collides with the lightest, catchiest and, um, cheesiest of bubblegum pop.
Okay, so, in other words, stripping away the wonderfully silly back story, we’re essentially in mash-up territory here. Or should that be mosh-up..?
I can’t say I’ve ever been a fan of the mash-up – they never improve on the original component parts and if they involves a song I like, it just annoys me to hear it ruined by some idiot playing about with mixing software on his computer.
But Rock Sugar bring something new to the mix. For a start, they are performing the songs, rather than just cutting and pasting other people’s recordings together.
But more importantly, they bring a sense of fun that transforms the mash-up from the dry, soulless technical exercise it essentially is into something… wonderful.
The 13 tracks on Rock Sugar’s debut album, Reimaginator, are an astonishing fusion of no fewer than 34 songs by rock heavyweights such as Metallica, AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Ozzy Osbourne, Guns N’ Roses, Motley Crue and Judas Priest with catchy pop-rock anthems from the likes of Journey, Eurythmics, Rick Springfield, Bon Jovi, Madonna and Queen.
The album opener, which is generating massive internet buzz at the moment, is Don’t Stop The Sandman, which blends Journey’s Don’t Stop Believing and Metallica’s Enter Sandman to simply stunning effect.
I know, I know… the Journey song has been hugely over-exposed in the last year or so, from its memorable use in the final scene of The Sopranos, through being massacred in last year’s The X Factor (in the UK) and, most recently, the surprisingly decent version performed by the cast of TV smash hit (and, the Choob must admit, one of my guilty TV pleasures) Glee.
But Rock Sugar’s version will make you look at the song in a whole new light. In a good way.
The official video has only been up on YouTube for about six weeks and already, through only word of mouth, has just smashed through the 200,000 views mark. Here it is, see what you think:
Great though it is, Don’t Stop The Sandman is really just the curtain-raiser to the album. You can stream all the tracks on the band’s official site, and most are also up on YouTube too, so I won’t go through them all.
However, here are a few that I think are particularly awesome (I’ll leave you to work out what’s been mashed together).
First up we have Prayin’ For A Sweet Weekend:
Next, Shook Me Like A Prayer:
And finally, Dreaming Of A Whole Lotta Breakfast:
There are countless ways this could have all gone horribly wrong and been an embarrassing mess – but it’s hard to imagine how it could possibly have turned out better.
And that is surely a testament to the fact that the band have genuine musical talent to back up their high-concept idea. Yes, there is a gimmick inherent in their music – but there’s nothing gimmicky about their inspired choices of songs to combine, the technical genius of their arrangements or the quality of their recorded performance.
If the live experience matches the studio effort – and early live reviews suggest that they are even better live than on disc, then this band may just be THE next big thing.
In the title of this post I jokingly compared Rock Sugar to the ever-entertaining Spinal Tap. But that’s perhaps unfair, because Tap are all about spoofing the self-important pomposity and excess of heavy metal. Rock Sugar is no spoof.
If Rock Sugar share any characteristics with Spinal Tap, it’s that their tongue is firmly in cheek and they are making rock music fun again.
The album is currently only available from the band’s website for $17. Adding international shipping of $8 makes it a slightly pricy proposition for those outwith the US – $25 or £16 – but well worth it, for my money, to get in at the ground floor because they deserve to be huge.
Rock Sugar might just be my new favourite band. Because pop rocks!
Incidentally, lead singer Jess Harnell has apparently had a colourful career. In addition to being in a few bands, including Loud & Clear, he’s a somewhat prolific voice-over artist. He has lent his voice to many animated TV shows and videogames.
Most notably, he starred as Wakko Warner in the fondly remembered 1990s Animaniacs cartoon series and also voiced two of the Transformers in the two recent live action movies. Oh, and he’s been the announcer for America’s Funniest Home Videos for over a decade.
At first sight of Michelle Obama, I noticed her arms. Her arms are so sculpted but not masculine or not like a body builder’s. Ever since then, I’ve always wanted to have arms like hers.
I’ve been researching about how to make my arms something like the First Lady’s. I particularly like Tracy Anderson’s program because it doesn’t look too hard. Besides that, she has trained with Madonna, and Gwyneth Paltrow. Hers should be effective. I plan to do these 6 kinds of arm exercises that she does and hopefully see some results. She prescribes using the threadmill, however that costs thousands. I will just substitute. I will just incorporate my yoga in my arm workout. I have to. I have been practicing yoga for 10 years now. It is very important to me. It is like a ceremony for me. I wonder if this is a good substitute. Doing yoga affects “cardio”, studies have shown.
I’ve practiced different kinds of yoga. Yoga from the books, yoga at the gym. Recently, I’ve been doing yoga from videos. I am currently doing “twisting” yoga. It was from this website called yogatoday.com. You could download different kinds of yoga for different uses from this website. It costs around $4 per download.
And so this morning, I bought a pair of 3 pound dumbbells as adviced by Tracy Anderson. She says a woman should not exceed 3 pounds otherwise it wouldn’t look sexy or feminine.
Today is my first day to do this workout. I took a picture of my arms today as a “before” picture. The “after” picture to follow. I wonder how long this will take? Hopefully this is effective.
The rumour goes that Madonna is negotiating for an apparel-line. Her relations with the fashion industry grew tightly over the years, and a lot of people admire Madges chameleon style.
Parties said to be involved in the project, like Iconix brand Inc (a brand management firm that owns and licenses 21 brands), and Madonna’s publicist Liz Rosenberg nor admit or decline the possibility of this apparel-line. Sources say even the label names are in serious consideration. These would be Material Girl for the apparel, and Truth or Dare for lingerie and underwear. The line would be exclusively sold to Macy’s.We think it’s a project that suits Madonna’s ambitions outside the music industry. It’s not like she hasn’t done it before. She co-branded a line with H&M in the Spring of 2007, under the M by Madonna label. H&M’s head of design, Margaretha van den Bosch was impressed by the popstar’s feel for fashion and trends: ”She was extraordinarily style conscious, passionate and was involved in even the smallest details of every design.”
We’ll keep you posted if anything on this issue will be confirmed.
I have an affinity for all of the seasons but quiet frankly I am over the frigid temperature and the snow.
It’s fashion week in New York City . All the major designers are debuting their Fall 2010 collections.
I understand the reasons why designers show their collections a season ahead but I love the warm weather and I can only think about Spring frocks.
I am so ready for the last traces of the snow to melt from the corners of the concrete so I can welcome Spring with arms wide open.
Spring-time is the chance to shed the bulky sweaters and walk out the door with a cute dress and a trench coat.
Bows are one of the hottest accessory trends for Spring 2010.
Bows will allow the opportunity to dress up your hair, neck, or shoes in a new and vivacious way.
Bows are a trademark vintage look. Hair stylist Guido who was responsible for the hair bow masterpieces on the runway for Marc by Marc Jacobs (Spring 2010) told Allure Magazine that Bows are a mix of ’50s and ’80s. “It’s a ’50s look, but we based it on Madonna in Desperately Seeking Susan. “She really had a Marc sensibility in that movie, so we took it from that.”
Hair Bows Spring 2010: Marc by Marc Jacobs
Bows for the hair, Bow Ties for (men and women) and Bow Tie necklaces will be all the rage once the first signs of Spring appear.
One of the fascinating aspects about Bows is that they come in an assortment of textures, fabrics and colors. Designers like Marc by Marc Jacobs, and Milly created their own unique interpretation of the Hair Bow using gorgeous silks that would make any Flashdance enthusiast tickled pink. Forever 21.com has a variety of headbands affixed with dazzling bows that can turn a casual Spring outfit into something you can wear for a night on the town.
Bows made out of unique fabrics are also in high demand this Spring. Garment Colors has fantastic unisex bow-ties available on Etsy.com.

Bows are the must-have purchase for Spring because it doesn’t matter what size or shape you are; anyone can find one that fits their style.
“Madonna herself released a statement to Access Hollywood in memory of the designer, calling the loss “a tragedy.”
“Lee McQueen was a truly unique visionary in the world of fashion,” the fashion-forward star said in the statement. “A creator of beauty. What a tragedy.”” – Madgetribe
One of the things I try to emphasize when speaking to people about choosing a volunteer vacation, is the importance of knowing who assessed the need for the project in the first place. If you are working on community building and helping with social issues, it is hugely important that the community members being served are the ones who decided they need help, and what kind of help they need. Well meaning but misdirected volunteers and organizations can undo some of their good will and best intentions by forcing a foreign perspective onto a culture where it is not a very good fit.
Madonna ran into a situation like this quite recently. I am not one to disparage Madonna or any celebrity involved in generous causes around the world–I kind of think they are superstars, not for their fame, but for bringing attention to important issues in ways only their fame allows. They are able to open doors as well as unite fans and followers in ways many of the rest of us cannot. We certainly would if we could. The fact that celebrities are willing to lend their names, their wallets, and quite often their hands-on work, gets more people involved, and that can only be a good thing.
IF–the projects and organizations with which they align themselves are in step with the community served. In Malawi, a nation Madonna holds dear to her heart and family, the national government has told a group of villagers that they will lose their homes and be forced to move away to make room for a girl’s school the pop star is having built. Residents, according to an Associated Press story from yesterday, have refused to leave the site just outside of capital city Lilongwe. 200 villagers are being displaced, and I have to wonder if there isn’t perhaps a better, less intrusive location for the new school. The government has offered the residents other government land–and I don’t know the details of why THAT land is not a good site for the school, but it truly underlines the point about being sure the goals of the charities with whom we work are the SAME goals as the people we choose to help. I’m sure they will find a solution that benefits the village children AND keeps the village united…but what a tough first step motivated by love and philanthropy, but perhaps, unknowingly, off target.
It is important due diligence research you need to do before signing up for your volunteer work. Who determines the need? And who decides what is a successful outcome of our work?
