UAE slammed for being a troll
Madonna's single drops out of Top 40

Flop like an Egyptian: Madonna
Quote:
Her single Gimme All Your Luvin’ has proved a disastrous flop, despite launching to an audience of 114 million at the Super Bowl
o, it seems not many of you actually L-U-V Madonna after all.
Her single Gimme All Your Luvin’ has proved a disastrous flop, despite launching to an audience of 114 million at the Super Bowl half-time show.
During the performance, she dressed as an Egyptian – and genuinely looked like she’d been born around 3,000BC – but, sadly, the PR masterpiece hasn’t made a huge impact, as the single looks set to drop out of the Top 50 in the Official UK charts this Sunday after debuting at 37 last week.
It’s one of the worst showings in the 53-year-old’s career – although not as bad as Revolver, which achieved a pitiful 130, although it had already been available on a greatest hits album Celebration for three months prior to its release.
The 53-year-old's single prior to that, also entitled Celebration, went to number three in 2009.
Some downloads were given away last week as a free bonus track when fans pre-ordered her new album (MDNA, gotta love her for that) and these downloads do not count towards her chart placement.
Some fans thought the chart position had been affected by this and would recover this week, but sales have been ever fewer.
Give Me All Your Luvin' was her first new track for three years - and a first release under a new three-album deal she signed with music giant Universal.
It is the first time the lead track from one of her albums has not gone into the top ten since her debut single in 1982. And most new songs have made it into the top three.
Tickets for Madonna's Hyde Park show this summer - part of an international tour - went on sale last Friday and have still to sell out.

Wow, that Egyptian comment was harsh.
The song is just not good at all. Nothing personal to Madonna.

Madonna Rocks Super Bowl Halftime Show
t's Madonna Louise Ciccone's world, we're just living in it. The pop icon took to the world's biggest stage to rock three-and-a-half older tracks and a playful new song during the Super Bowl halftime show.

Madonna Lights Up the Super Bowl
Eli Manning and Tom Brady may know their way around the football field, but Sunday night, New England Patriots and New York Giants fans could take a break from taking sides to root for the queen of the (ever intricate) stage: Go Madonna!

Madonna at the Super Bowl review: A shockingly sincere, joyous performance
I was happy to see Madonna smiling so much, giving it her all, plugging her product with such gleeful abandon. (Oh, and, right, I almost forgot: WORLD PEACE, people!!) It wasn’t a thrillingly innovative performance, but that’s not what the Super Bowl half-time show is about anyway: It’s a time to hear some hits well-played, with more imagination and energy than, say, the Black-Eyed Peas provided last year. By this measure, Madonna’s Super Bowl performance was a bright delight.

Madonna Halftime Show: Super Bowl Performance Glitters In Gold
But despite the expensive threads, Madonna was her old self: turning cartwheels, showing off her bejeweled panties, writhing on the ground before Cee-Lo Green (in head-to-toe black sequins, natch) and making us all forget there was even a football game in session.
Girl's still got it. Check out the epic, fashion-filled, black-and-gold extravaganza that was Madonna's Super Bowl halftime performance below.

Madonna Triumphs at Super Bowl With Montreal Showbiz Savvy
She was hot. Madonna rocked the stadium in Indianapolis tonight, arriving like Liz Taylor as Cleopatra, launching into one of the flashiest acts I’ve ever seen anywhere. At the end she went pseudo-gospel with Like a Prayer then disappeared in a puff of smoke, leaving a message for World Peace behind at the 46th Super Bowl. Nice touch. Amazing showmanship, thanks to the high-tech flash enabled by Montreal’s Cirque du Soleil and The Moment Factory. (Actually, there wasn’t a lot of circus, more dance, choreographed by Jamie King.)

Madonna Brings Down the Stadium at Super Bowl Halftime Show
Nobody does it like Madonna! The singer pulled out all the stops (and the hits) for the XLVI Super Bowl Halftime Show, even calling in some favors with her fellow pop performers.

Daily Mail
Quote:
She said she had to put on ‘the greatest show on earth, during the greatest show on earth’ and Madonna certainly didn’t disappoint.
The singer put on an impressive show during the halftime show of the NFL Super Bowl XLVI football game between the New York Giants and the New England Patriots.
