From Madonnatribe..

We were exclusively informed that Madonna will be recording materials to include on a new album in the USA with Pharrell Williams, while rumoured producer Timbaland is not in the picture. From what we have been told Stuart Price will not be on board as a main producer for this album either, as Madonna really wants to make an American hip-hop album, that will put her in the American mainstream for a change. We have no doubt it's gonna be amazing, but in any case we have been told by our sources that it won't be happening any time soon this year.

On one of the Madonna forums i go to someone made up with that name and album info.

OH MY GOODNESS

I CANNOT WAIT!!!

LOOK SHE IS GOING TO DELIVER THE ALBUM FOR NOVEMBER 2007
YESSSSSS
PATIENCE

november....i think she's over (not at all) i mean it wont be a great album as Confessions was.
seems like she wont stop making music

aparently she was on the today show and other tv shows this week. but she didnt say anything about the new album. i guess its too early anyway.

You mean she just did some tv interviews?
The last time I saw her on tv was when she adopted a baby boy last year.

yeah, she was on the today show, david letterman, and some other thing.

i hope it's better than "Confessions..."

Strange.. She has distanced herself a lot this past 3 years.
I'll look out for those shows

Well, she does have 3 children to support and a husband.

^She really doesn't need to make anymore money...trust me, she has ENOUGH.

I wish she'd just retire. = X

didn't the BBC or someone estimate that she has a personal fortune of 2 billion?

That's alot, I did not think she was worth that much.

Whoa!
Thats for 7 next generation of hers?

Wow! She's that rich?

Well I hope she has started to put her money to good use. Like for charitable causes or investing in or helping poorer countries. She's doing something with the Malawi government right?

I could be wrong, but I really believe that thats what the BBC said. Time magazine claims she has a fortune of 350-550 million, but thats for stuff to do with album sales only.
She gets alot of money from the album and single sales, and of course every time one of her songs is played on the radio, its another penny in her bank account haha.
but she has alot of high price realestate around the world too. Also doesnt she own Maverick Records, or a large portion of it?
I think she was the highest paid female in the world for 2006 wasent she?
And yeah she does do alot of charity work, she just doesnt use it for publicity (which is quite unlike her )

Ahh.. Madonna on charity and good causes

Well I think becasue Madonna always has a whole lot of publicity surrounding her all the time, I mean every thing she does is being trailed by the media (now its the UK media since she's there a lot there now)

So whenever she does something to help other people, its always seen as a publicity stunt

Well I think that's not the case anymore. it used to be but now it isn't. Madonna has reached a point in her life where she's not bothered by what the media thinks, about being on top etc. She want to help other people, raise her children well and such. She didnt even bother to promote her Confessions album much.

So I think she really has a heart of gold, she really wants to create a difference when she adopted David

and she basically saved his life
people who are criticizing should all go adopt a child in malawi themselves : there are 11 million orphans in malawi
nobody ever talked about Malawi before madonna was there.

most people are so ignorant and try to criticize madonna for her good actions while they are fans of wannabe stars who spend their whole days drinking, going to parties without underpants etc and lead a selfish ridiculous life

Shes no saint, you can't erase the bad actions of her past,
but with that being said; shes grown a tremendous amount.
I believe that she really is a good person now, and has struggeled
to over come her personal demons.

oh well.. Its a great thing she's not stopping, not affected by the bad press.
