    Still wondering if it’s going to make it on the hot 100 next week. Kinda surprised it hasn’t this last week or two considering how high the streams were.

    it will not chart in hot 100

    the song is restricted to chart due Billboard rules 

    Descending titles are removed from the Hot 100 after 20 weeks on the chart if below No. 50

    she's on there as a featured artist so technically it counts as a Madonna release

    she actually have a main credit along with Weekend

    i was talking about label and team XO/Republic whos in charge for this release and Madonna has nothing to it 

  3. dance mixes? 

    billboard shut down club chart

    and ended that dying trend

    and its not even Madonna release

     

    We are lucky they finally release this EP and we can hope  it helps to finally get UK top 10 

     

     

     

  4. Madonna & Live Nation Fire Back At Lawsuit Over Concert Delays, Say They Will ‘Defend This Case Vigorously’

    Madonna-The-Celebration-Tour-London-oct-

    Days after fans accused the star of breaking the law by starting concerts too late, her reps say they plan to fight back.

    Madonna’s management team and Live Nation responded Wednesday to a high-profile lawsuit claiming the music legend harmed her fans by starting New York City concerts later than scheduled, disputing some allegations and saying they plan to “defend this case vigorously.”

    The response statement came after days of silence regarding the proposed class action lawsuit, in which two fans claim the star and the concert giant breached their contract with concertgoers and violated New York state laws by starting three December shows in Brooklyn more than two hours later than the schedule

    In their joint statement, Madonna’s reps and Live Nation said that the just-completed European leg of her Celebration Tour had “received rave reviews” and vowed the fight back against the lawsuit’s allegations.

    “The shows opened in North America at Barclays in Brooklyn as planned, with the exception of a technical issue December 13th during soundcheck,” Madonna’s reps and Live Nation said. “This caused a delay that was well documented in press reports at the time. We intend to defend this case vigorously.”

    Ticket buyers Michael Fellows and Jonathan Hadden filed their case last week, claiming that the delays — starting at 10:30 pm rather than the scheduled 8:30 pm — caused real legal harm to ticket buyers who, among other things, “had to get up early to go to work” the next day.

    “Defendants’ actions constitute not just a breach of their contracts … but also a wanton exercise in false advertising, negligent misrepresentation, and unfair and deceptive trade practices,” attorneys for the two men wrote in their complaint, filed in Brooklyn federal court.

    The three concerts at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center, stops on Madonna’s Celebration Tour, were originally scheduled for July but rescheduled to December due to the singer’s illness. Fellows and Hadden said they expected their show (Dec. 13) to start on time, and “would not have paid for their tickets had they known that the concerts would start after 10:30 p.m.”

    “Defendants failed to provide any notice to the ticketholders that the concerts would start much later than the start time printed on the ticket and as advertised,” attorneys for the two men wrote.

    Leaving Barclays Center after 1:00 a.m., the two men claimed ticket buyers were “left stranded in the middle of the night,” some “confronted with limited public transportation” options and others with increased prices for ride-share services. They also pointed out that the concert took place “on a weeknight,” meaning they “had to get up early to go to work and/or take care of their family responsibilities the next day.”

    Can fans really sue over that? When they formally respond in court, Madonna and Live Nation will probably challenge many of the lawsuit’s claims by arguing that concert fans are on notice that live events sometimes start a little later than scheduled. They could also point to contractual provisions in ticket contracts that could give performers some leeway for unexpected delays.

    In addition to Madonna herself, the lawsuit also named Live Nation and Barclays Center as defendants. In technical terms, the complaint alleged breach of contract; violation of New York’s business practices and false advertising laws; and several other forms of wrongdoing, including unjust enrichment.

    The lawsuit also included a claim of so-called negligent misrepresentation, saying the concert organizers “knew or should have known” that the concerts would not start at 8:30 because of alleged past instances of Madonna taking the stage late — and should have warned fans.

    “Madonna has a long history of arriving and starting her concerts late, sometimes several hours late,” attorneys for Fellows and Hadden wrote. “This history occurred throughout her 2016 Rebel Heart Tour, her 2019-2020 Madame X Tour, and prior tours, where Madonna continuously started her concerts over two hours late.”

    Attorneys for Fellows and Hadden did not return a request for comment on Wednesday’s response statement.

  5. wait

    Cripes, where did this individual find all this? They know their stuff. Am really enjoying. Suppose all involved put it out there at one point or other. But I’d forgotten a lot of it. And prompted by that, have been turning up a few others in my vault.

    Thing is, M doesn’t really look back in that way, going forward, given that she can knock new hits out any time. and especially as she now has this totally immersive autobiographical tour thundering around the globe. With all the totally new music I have in the bag for my forthcoming ‘Strange Cargo X’ album, on Cargo Cult, and banging live material for the summer, I sometime close my eyes and dream of creating another ‘Ray of Light’ album with her, and with all her children, who are so ‘right’ in the mix. “🎵The Hills are alive with the sound of the . . . Ciccone Family!🎵”. With a little help from a Ferrari member (my maternal side). Ahhh. But with a tour till the Autumn, with Brazil  :eyes:now bolted on etc, that’s unlikely. It’s very hard graft, to do it every night and give it everything.

    But is weird that having been involved with her for so long, I’ve now become a true fanboy. In a way I wasn’t before. As in, that wouldn’t have been the optimal term to describe my appreciation previously, devout though it was. But it is now. A Stan! Since that show in Paris. Plus a bit of professorial rumination. You know what two human voices intrigue and captivate me most at the moment? both in terms of beauty, and nerdy waveform geekiness, it's hers, and that of Vybz Cartel. There’s a book he wrote about 12 years ago I will be reviewing shortly btw.

    In a week or so I’m going to start of a more structured instagram posting, to my small but inspirational-to-me group of friends (prefer that word to ‘followers’) here on insta. Three a week, each one with a theme. [continued in comments below . . . ]

  6. "You want to sue Madonna for being late on stage? She’s an artist not a service industry worker

    There’s something about the terms in which their discontent is expressed that feels faintly pathetic."

    https://www.theguardian.com/music/2024/jan/19/you-want-to-sue-madonna-for-being-late-on-stage-shes-an-artist-not-a-service-industry-worker?CMP=share_btn_twYou

    Some music fans seem afflicted by a sense of entitlement, and to have forgotten that inconvenience used to be part of the gig-going experience. Mind you, with today’s ticket prices, is it any wonder?

    At first glance, the news that two New York concert-goers are suing Madonna for arriving on stage two hours late for a show at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center is hard to read without an involuntary roll of the eyes.

    There’s something about the terms in which their discontent is expressed that feels faintly pathetic. Hang on, you went to a gig and got upset because it finished late, you “had to get up early to go to work the following day” and, worse, faced “limited public transportation” en route home?

    It is not an argument destined to cut much mustard with anyone who – like the claimants – is old enough to remember a time before golden circles, cordoned-off glamping areas at festivals, corporate packages, VIP suites, lounges and viewing platforms, “ultimate bars” and all the other latterday additions that have turned gigs into a branch of the hospitality industry. A time when a degree of discomfort and inconvenience was part of the gig-going deal. It seems to speak rather loudly about an entitlement on the part of the audience; a tendency to treat artists as though they work in a branch of the service industries: “I’ve paid my money, you had better do exactly what I want or else.”

    So there’s a certain irony about the fact that a considerable chunk of the Madonna show that occasioned the lawsuit involves a recreation of the arty, post-disco early-80s New York demimonde from which the singer sprung, complete with a dancer in character as Jean-Michel Basquiat and a mockup of the entrance to the Paradise Garage club.

    It seems doubtful that anyone who attended a show by Basquiat’s noise-rock band Gray, or turned up to hear the Garage’s genius but drug-addled resident DJ Larry Levan, ever considered getting the lawyers in because a late start meant they faced “limited public transportation” home.

    Then again, no one who attended a gig in the days when discomfort and inconvenience were standard paid the astronomical sums people are expected to cough up for tickets these days. The cheapest seats for Madonna’s London shows were £50, the most expensive were £432.25, and that is assuming you didn’t miss out on the hugely oversubscribed initial sale and end up taking the resold tickets route: one site, Viagogo, was advertising tickets at £1,870 each. And this, it should be added, is not uncommon pricing for big arena shows. Nothing generates a sense of entitlement like spending the best part of a grand on a couple of gig tickets, and if attendees have to leave before the end to catch the last train home, they’re going to feel short-changed and angry.

    There, one suspects, lies the nub of the problem: it isn’t really a matter of latterday gig-goers not knowing they’re born or making unreasonable demands on an artist, it’s a simple question of economics.

    Madonna and Live Nation have been sued by two fans for “false advertising” after the Queen of Pop started her shows late.

    Concertgoers Michael Fellows and Jonathan Hadden argued in their class-action lawsuit obtained by TMZ Thursday that Madonna, 65, was not punctual during her “Celebration” tour stops at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

    The performances were supposed to start at 8:30 p.m. ET, but the “Like a Virgin” singer did not take the stage until 10:30 p.m.

    Fellows and Hadden claimed Madonna showed up late to all three of her shows at the New York venue, which took place on Dec. 13, 14 and 16, 2023.

    In the suit, the plaintiffs said the late starts constitute a “wanton exercise in false advertising, negligent misrepresentation, and unfair and deceptive trade practices.”

    Madonna is facing a federal class action lawsuit because she allegedly started three New York City concerts later than scheduled, a delay that her accusers say caused real legal harm to ticket buyers who “had to get up early to go to work” the next day.

    “Defendants failed to provide any notice to the ticketholders that the concerts would start much later than the start time printed on the ticket and as advertised,” attorneys for the two men write.

    Leaving Barclays Center after 1:00 a.m., the two men say ticket buyers were “left stranded in the middle of the night,” some “confronted with limited public transportation” options and others with increased prices for ride-share services. They also point out that the concert took place “on a weeknight,” meaning they “had to get up early to go to work and/or take care of their family responsibilities the next day.”

    The lawsuit also includes a claim of so-called negligent misrepresentation, saying the concert organizers “knew or should have known” that the concerts would not start at 8:30 because of alleged past instances of Madonna taking the stage late — and should have warned fans.

    “Madonna has a long history of arriving and starting her concerts late, sometimes several hours late,” attorneys for Fellows and Hadden write. “This history occurred throughout her 2016 Rebel Heart Tour, her 2019-2020 Madame X Tour, and prior tours, where Madonna continuously started her concerts over two hours late.”

    They are suing for unspecified damages.

     

     

    Reps for Madonna and Live Nation did not immediately return requests for comment.

     

    However, a source close to Madonna told Page Six last month that the tardiness was due to technical issues that took place during her sound check.

    In October, the “Vogue” singer kicked off her tour — which celebrates the four decades she has spent in the music industry — in London.

    It was originally supposed to start in July 2023, but Madonna had to postpone it after being hospitalized for a “serious” bacterial infection.

  9. Diablo Cody Has ‘Zero Regrets’ About Her Lost Madonna Movie: ‘It Didn’t Work Out For Purely Logistical Reasons’ – Exclusive

    https://www.empireonline.com/movies/news/diablo-cody-zero-regrets-madonna-movie-exclusive/

    For years, Hollywood had a Madonna movie in the works. Not just a biopic of the legendary artist, but one which Madonna herself would direct. It was in full development at Universal, with Julia Garner expected to play the singer, multiple reports of ‘Madonna bootcamp’ auditions taking place, and none other than Diablo Cody – the writer behind Juno, Jennifer’s Body, Tully and more – on script duties. But ultimately, it never came to be, with Madonna instead going on a world tour. While the biopic didn’t make it to the screen, Cody says she has “no regrets” over the time she spent working on the project, which saw her spend considerable time with the star.

    Speaking to Empire in a major new career-spanning interview, Cody reflected on her experience of working with a music legend. “Nobody in this world gets to say that they spent this surreal summer of 2020 basically in lockdown with one of the biggest stars in the world, sharing stories and creating,” she says of the project. “I have zero regrets about that experience. It didn’t work out for purely logistical reasons. For me, to have an experience like that, especially as a woman who grew up when I did… I still have trouble comprehending it.”

    Instead, Cody’s latest film is Lisa Frankenstein – an ‘80s-set horror-comedy starring Kathryn Newton, in which teenager Lisa forms a romantic connection with the revived corpse of a Victorian aristocrat.
