The Official Madonna Thread V

[Vinylfantasy]

The other one was at capacity so I made a new one. Have y'all seen the new Louis Vuitton spreads? If not, you should definitely check them out. I believe they're in the latest issue of Vogue if I'm not mistaken. I'm super happy to see her working with Steven Meisel again. They've done some brilliant work together over the years.

Pictures are here and obviously resized. Lemme know if you want the HQ versions.

Spoiler:

She did another shoot awhile back for Vogue Brazil with Steven Klein. It's from the same session that the "Get Stupid" footage was filmed for the tour.

Spoiler:

In other news, the Sticky & Sweet Tour DVD is scheduled to come out in March under Universal Music and it'll be produced by Live Nation obviously. It looks like it will also be a double disc release like IGTTYAS and Confessions Tour have been.

The LV spread looks hot!

Wow,I love her eyepatch!

Madonna's touring again this summer in Europe! She's taking the Sticky & Sweet Tour to cities she didn't get to see the first time around.

[waterballoon]

Lucky guys in Europe... when will she ever come to Singapore (no I don't think she has ever come here before... I think)???

[Vinylfantasy]

I'm pretty sure the original intention was for her to go to Japan and Australia this summer but Europe is cheaper because you can drive the stage around as opposed to flying it.

[waterballoon]

Even big celebrities are doing their bit in saving money amidst the economic crisis... Oh do you know if the LV spread she's doing is only for the US, or will the pictures be used as promotion in LV stores all around the world?

[Ayumi27]

She was supposed to tour Australia and Japan in this new leg of the tour, but apparently she'll only go to Europe. A date in Tallinn, Estonia, for August 4th 2009 is already confirmed

[Vinylfantasy]

It's official kids, Australia's in the mix too for the revamped Sticky & Sweet extension! I'm sure it's only a matter of time before Japan pops up as well.

Madonna’s ‘Sticky & Sweet Tour’ goes back on the road summer 2009

Special Guest Paul Oakenfold To Open All Shows.

MOST SUCCESSFUL CONCERT TOUR OF 2008 VISITS 22 MARKETS BEGINNING JULY 4 IN LONDON

January 30, 2009 - Los Angeles, California... For Immediate Release
Madonna's phenomenally successful 'Sticky & Sweet Tour', already the #1 Biggest Grossing Tour in history for a solo artist, will embark on another series of shows beginning July 4th in London. (Schedule follows this release). Stops will include appearances in never before played markets such as Werchter Belgium, Marseille France, Hamburg Germany, Oslo Norway, Helsinki Finland, Tallinn Estonia, Ljubljana Slovenia as well as stops in Romania, Hungary, Serbia and Bulgaria it was confirmed today by Live Nation. Additional appearances by Madonna will include return visits after more than 15 years to Madrid, Gothenburg and Munich.

"This is a first for me. I've never extended a tour before. I'm excited to be going back on the road, visiting places I've never been and returning to places I love" commented Madonna about the new run of dates.

Raves around the globe for the tour include the London Times which remarked, "In the premiere league of song-and-dance spectaculars, the queen of pop remains unrivaled and undefeated." "The choreography, visuals and live talent were world class and mind-blowingly well executed, intelligent and witty," glowed The Independent (UK).

In 2008, the 'Sticky & Sweet Tour' was seen by 2,350,285 fans in 58 cities. With record breaking ticket sales everywhere, including 650,000 tickets sold in her series of South American dates, 72,000 tickets at Zurich's Dübendorf Airfield - the largest audience ever assembled for a show in Switzerland, 75,000 tickets in London and four sell outs in New York's Madison Square Garden (60,364 tickets).

"This new run of dates will further solidify Madonna's position as one of the top selling touring artists of all time," said Arthur Fogel, Live Nation's Chairman of Global Music and CEO of Global Touring/Artist Nation.

Special Guest for Sticky & Sweet 2009, Paul Oakenfold has long been one of the most important - if not the most important - name in modern club culture. He has remixed The Rolling Stones U2, Madonna, Justin Timberlake, Snoop Dog, Muse New Order, The Cure, Massive Attack and even Elvis Presley and produced The Happy Mondays. The two time Grammy nominee is in the Guinness Book of World Records for being the biggest DJ in the world. His new artist album, 'Pop Killer' is due out later this year.
Madonna's multi-Grammy-nominated CD 'Hard Candy' debuted at Number One in over 37 countries.

Her latest photoshoot in Rio with Steven Klein is online! You can see all the photos here. It's called "Blame It On Rio" and it's not for the faint of heart. Loves it. Very Steven Klein.

^Doesn't that photoshoot remind you of the hair she had in the Bad Girl MV?

[Vinylfantasy]

The whole shoot was very Bad Girl to me. It's like a remake for 2009!

Music released in the U.S. isn't allowed to be uploaded as per AHS rules. You're going to have to either buy it on iTunes or find it somewhere else, unfortunately. :/ Sorry.

And that photo shoot is GORGEOUS!
