MADONNA

• Bosses at Vanity Fair are auctioning the polystyrene and plaster globe Madonna poses alongside on the cover of the magazine's May (08) issue for an upcoming charity auction. The Material Girl signed the globe, drawing a heart over Africa. The proceeds of the eBay.com auction, which starts next week (beginning of 07 Apr 08), will benefit Madonna's Raising Malawi charity, which helps orphans in the African nation - one of the poorest in the world. The singer is also offering two tickets for a New York show she's planning at the end of this month, accommodation and dinner as part of the auction package.

• Her 11th studio album for Warners 'Hard Candy' is planned to have a global release on April 28th 2008 and a US release on April 29th, it was confirmed by her label. 'Hard Candy' (the follow up to Madonna's 'Confessions On A Dance Floor' which debuted at No. 1 in 30 countries and sold over 8 million copies), has been described as a brilliant up-tempo collection of 12 songs in which Madonna remains ensconced in club mode but this time adds an urban hip hop beat in collaboration with musical partners Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, Pharrell Williams of the Neptunes and Nate 'Danja' Hills. 


MUSIC VIDEO-"4 MINUTES"
Madona Feat Justin Timberlake and Timberland

It's a great song and the rhythm is awesome. It's true that Madonna barely sings, but when she does sing, she sounds good. She's definitely sidelined by Justin Timberlake who makes the song what it is. But nevertheless the collaboration is great between all three. Really loved the music video effects.
