Britney Spears Tribute To Include Madonna?
As has been making rounds across the net, producer/casting director John “Woody” Woodbeck has set the Twitterverse ablaze with mention of music icons Madonna and Janet Jackson honoring pop princess Britney Spears at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards. The producer said:
Hmm…this sounds more like a stan fantasy than a legit line-up. While Lady Gaga, Ke$ha, and Nicki Minaj will all be in attendance, their connections with Britney are well-documented (writing, tourmate, etc) – thusly, making their involvement more believable. But, for pop Queens Madonna and Janet Jackson to tribute Spears, that seems a bit…much. However, even with no official confirmation from MTV, the news has been making headlines all over magazine and blog sites alike (and MTV has yet to dispel the rumors)."If this lineup is legit (which I’m told it is) the tribute to Britney at the VMAs is gonna be insanely EPIC!! Wow! Wow! Wow!"
Alas, we will all have to tune into the show on August 28th to find out the real lineup. Until then, fans can whet their appetites by seeing Spears’ MTV promo spot here (which interestingly features music from both Madge and Miss Jackson).
I am thinking that this is fake...what about you?
Madonna Going On Family Trip For Her Birthday!!!
Sounds like this should be a wonderful trip! Yesterday, Madonna was spotted with her BF Brahim Zaibat and her children Mercy, David, and Lourdes at JFK airport (above, and below). Madge and co. were headed overseas for a family celebration in honor of her 53rd birthday! Between this trip and her weekend in the Hamptons, it sounds like she's having a wonderful bday!
Enjoy!!!

From The Vault: Madonna – ‘Human Nature’
This week saw 'That Grape Juice' ask you who you who you considered to be the reigning Queen of Pop. For many, that title belonged to none other than Madonna!
By constantly reinventing herself, she has tackled numerous musical genres and has amazed the masses by being equally comfortable singing Pop-by-the-numbers tunes or fearlessly riding a Hip-Hop beat.
Today we will travel back to a time when her Madgesty was experimenting with R&B, cue this week’s From The Vault - ‘Human Nature
’.
The final single from her underrated sixth album, 1994’s‘Bedtime Stories
’, the G-Funk tinged cut is an open-letter to the press after the backlash she had suffered following the ‘Erotica
’ era (especially the Sex
book). She adopts an unapologetic attitude and explains that she shouldn’t be stoned for exploring her fantasies, for expressing herself – urging the listener to do the same.
‘Nature’s accompanying visual is even more notorious than the song. Deemed by many as avant-garde, the latex-heavy video depicts a corn-rowed material girl as a bondage queen, backed by a group of dancers, executing intricate choreography and acrobatics. What sets it apart from other clips is its remarkable art direction and cinematography as well as its simplicity, once again proving that less can indeed be more.
No matter which blonde currently rules the world charts and no matter what her naysayers think of her, Madonna should forever be respected, if not for her impressive back catalogue, amazing videos and critically-acclaimed tours; at least for universally raising the bar for Pop acts, especially female acts, and making it the norm to constantly want to push social or cultural barriers release after release.
Your thoughts?
