Producer...
Madonna’s manager Guy Oseary tweeted today about Madonna being on the recording studio…
“It’s official.. Madonna’s 1st day in the recording studio for the new album… Very exciting.. Happy 4th of july…”Madonnarama.com can exclusively reveal that French electronic music DJ and producer from Paris, Martin Solveig is involved in the project. He’s currently in London producing some of the tracks on Madonna’s forthcoming album!

The queen leaves the recording studio a few hours ago:
Some more current Madonna info:
Weinstein said…
“Madonna beautifully interweaves past and present in W.E. It’s a very smart film, and a stunning feature directorial debut.*David Guetta has confirmed that he is (thankfully) NOT working on the new Madonna album!
I’m incredibly excited about this movie and I wanted to give it a prominent release date.”
*Lady Gaga is still trying to become Madonna... What else is new then?
Who-hoo!...
According to CD WOW, the upcoming Kylie DVD will be released as a DVD+CD package. And: it will be released (in Australia at least) on September 30th. So I expect a UK/Euro release around the same time! Can't wait to see the complete show on DVD!!!

KYLIE ‘THE ALBUMS – 2000-2010′
5 ALBUMS IN ONE BOX!
INCLUDING HER LATEST HIT ALBUM ‘APHRODITE’ WITH ‘LIGHT YEARS’, ‘FEVER’, ‘BODY LANGUAGE’ & ‘X’
EMI Music are proud to announce the release of a beautiful 5 CD box set on July 18th 2011.
The story of the albums and music:-
Back in June 2000 we saw the much anticipated release of “Spinning Around” the first single from Kylie’s debut studio album for Parlophone Records. In true style she caused a sensation by debuting at Number 1 in both the UK and Australian charts. In September 2000 her follow up single, “On A Night Like This” was released repeating Spinning Around’s success by debuting in the UK charts at #2. Kylie’s most anticipated album yet, “Light Years”, was released at the same time to massive critical and commercial success debuting at #2 in the U.K.
September 2001 saw the Kylie phenomenon reach fever pitch with the release of her global smash hit “Can’t Get You Out Of My Head” from the multi-platinum selling album “Fever”. The album generated a further three smash hit singles “In Your Eyes”, “Love At First Sight” and “Come Into My World” and sold over six million copies worldwide.
Kylie stole the show at the 2002 Brit Awards with an incredible performance of “Can’t Get You Out Of My Head” and won two major awards for Best International Female and Best International Album.
Kylie was awarded “Woman Of The Year” 2002 at the Elle style awards while the record-breaking “Can’t Get You Out Of My Head” garnered 3 Ivor Novello Awards for Best International Single, Best Dance Record and Most Played Record of The Year
Kylie spent the summer of 2003 recording her ninth studio album, “Body Language” in London, Ireland and Spain. “Body Language” was released in November 2003. It was preceded by the hypnotic single “Slow”, written by Kylie with Emiliana Torrini and Dan Carey which debuted at number 1 in Australia and the UK.
Her world tour KylieX2008 opened at the Paris Bercy on May 6th 2008. She travelled to 21 counties throughout Europe that (northern) summer playing to over half a million fans at 53 sold out shows! The London papers called the tour “pop perfection!” KylieX2008 continued on to South America in November before moving on to Dubai then through Asia to NZ and finishing in Australia just before Christmas. Critics declared it to be “A show NOT to be missed!”.
The “X” album, was nominated for a Grammy in 2008 for “Best Dance Album”.
The summer of 2010 ushered in a new and exciting era in Kylie’s incredible story, the era of the ‘Aphrodite’. Kylie’s 11th studio album generated huge levels of excitement even before release, and the first single, ‘All the Lovers’ was been hailed as ‘one of the best Kylie songs ever’ (News Of The World) and Music Week declared that ‘Aphrodite has seen Kylie Minogue return to her uplifting dance-pop best’.

OMG!!!...
Some very rare Madonna footage has (somewhat) surfaced online. While some of the clips in this video are not very rare, there are some in between that I SO want to see in full (I never thought I would see any behind the scenes footage from the "La Isla Bonita" video!). Have a look:
