Madonna and Sir Elton John's combative history is no secret. Now, after both throwing an Oscar party on the same night, are they at it again? Elton and his husband, David Furnish, held their annual Oscar dinner party at the Pacific Design Centre in support of the Elton John AIDS Foundation -- tickets cost $3,500 and last year more than $4 million was raised. Katy Perry, Heidi Klum, Fran Drescher, Kim Kardashian, Miley Cyrus, Gwen Stefani and Neil Patrick Harris all danced the night away at Elton's lavish fete, while Madonna held her much smaller party at the private home of her manager, Guy Oseary. "They both have a very different sense of style when it comes to throwing a party," a friend of Madonna's tells me. "While Elton wanted a big party, saying yes to any famous person who wanted to attend, Madonna was much more selective. She wanted a more intimate party with A-list stars and no reality stars for sure." Elton and...

WEIRTON - A frantic pace and buckets which came in bunches dictated Madonna's 88-65 victory over Wheeling Central Catholic Tuesday at the Dube Dome. With the victory, Madonna advanced in the West Virginia Region 1, Section 1 tournament to play the winner of Bishop Donahue and Cameron at Brooke High School. "When you factor in the emotion of the game, the fact it was the first game of the tournament and it was against Wheeling Central, everything combined to some shaky moments," Madonna head coach George Vargo said. "You don't want to look behind. You want to look forward. And Wheeling Central is always tough against us. "Our effort was really good. I thought we did get a little lackadaisical for short stretches. I give Wheeling Central credit for its desire to win. I think we lost our composure two or three times. However, our effort was great at times." Braxton Nolte set the pace early for Wheeling Central, bombing shots from all over the court. Nolte ...

You know how Paramount Pictures and 20th Century Fox are re-releasing "Titanic" in April but in magical 3-D? Hearing Madonna's latest single, "Girl Gone Wild," released on Monday, makes me wish we could do something similar with her 2000 single, "Music." It was the last time Madonna really sounded like the queen of the dance floor, tapping into the hedonistic rebellion of the club, gettin' loose. "Girl Gone Wild," on the other hand, the second track to be released off the winkishly named "MDNA" due March 26, sounds grimly serious about the business of getting down. You can almost see Madonna narrowing her eyes, pointing at people at the Eurodisco and saying, "You. Writhe. NOW. Thank you." This is a woman, after all, who publicly took an audience member to task for spilling water on her stage when she performed at Coachella. You know, the festival in the middle of the broiling hot desert. Recorded in London with dance m...

Image Credit: Christopher Polk/Getty Images Yesterday, Madonna unleashed the lyric video for Girl Gone Wild, the latest single from her forthcoming MDNA. And there is a boy, apparently, who is not so wild about it: Girls Gone Wild founder Joe Francis says he threatened legal action if the single was released with its original plural title. He appears to have been satisfied, though its unclear how thoroughly. In a statement , Francis said that the shift from Girls to Girl was an immediate solution for [Madonna's label Interscope] to thwart any injunctive relief. Clearly her label was trying to avoid legal action surrounding the song, he continues. But this is still infringement as far as the law is concerned and we have been in touch with Madonnas representatives in an effort to resolve this issue. However, according to longtime Madonna manager Guy Oseary , Francis is shoveling bull. Oseary said the threat of a lawsuit did not prevent Madonna from singing the song at the Super Bow...

Singer Madonna has stripped to the smallest of smalls to promote her new single, 'Girl Gone Wild'. BY Olivia Bergin | 28 February 2012 Madonna's new single is called Girl Gone Wild - and its accompanying cover does everything it can to convey this message - except Madonna is no girl, she's a 53 year-old mother of four. But age is just a number after all, so why let half a century-plus get in the way of frolicking in what is, essentially, half a bra? And who better to call upon than racy lingerie purveyors, Agent Provocateur. READ: Madonna steals the show at the Superbowl in Givenchy Madge plumped for the brand's "Raphaella" padded bra (125), which is made from French corded lace and pleated tulle. Featuring gold, eyeleted strappings, it is described as offering "great lift to the dcolletage". Indeed, Madonna certainly looks well supported in said style. While we can't see what she's wearing on her bottom half, she could have co-ordinate...

After bestowing "Give Me All Your Luvin'" with a Super Bowl-sized debut, Madonna has unveiled "Girl Gone Wild," the candy-coated second single from her forthcoming studio album, "MDNA," on Monday (Feb. 27). In the world according to this single, girls just want to have some fun, and "get fired up like a smoking gun"; Madonna, for her part, realizes that she "shouldn't act this way" and that "good girls don't misbehave," but fortunately for her, she is a "bad girl anyway, hey!" While "Give Me All Your Luvin'" featured a call-and-response structure and cameos by Nicki Minaj and M.I.A. , "Girl Gone Wild" is no-nonsense electro-pop, with a driving beat and propulsive hook that recalls Madge's 2005 single "Hung Up." Last week, Ultra Music's Patrick Moxey filled in Billboard.com on the origin of the song, which was helmed by dance music superstar Benny Benassi and hi...

A successful Madonna University men's basketball campaign ended a bit prematurely Wednesday night in the opening round of the Wolverine-Hoosier Athletic Conference playoffs. The host Crusaders, the third seed, were upended by sixth-seed Concordia University, 79-65. The loss leaves MU with a final record of 18-13; the Cardinals moved into the WHAC semifinals on Saturday at 15-16.

In a battle of A-list egos, the feuding stars have spent the days leading up to the 84th Academy Awards ceremony trying to outshine one another in a desperate attempt to host the best Oscars party in town.

Madonna has upset education officials with plans to build ten schools. Photo: AP Education officials in Malawi have attacked Madonna for unveiling plans to build ten schools in the country, a year after she was forced to scrap a project to build a girls' academy. Madonna, who has adopted two children from Malawi, announced last month that her Raising Malawi charity was teaming up with non-profit group buildOn to create the ten schools instead. But John Bisika, Malawi's national secretary for education, science and technology, said: ''We have had no written or verbal communication.

LONG BEACH (CBS) A man convicted of stalking Madonna was recently captured after escaping a mental hospital in Norwalk. Now we have learned more about his personal life with a look as his personal possessions. Robert Dewey Hoskins, 54, kept his possessions inside a Long Beach storage facility until he fell behind with his rent and his belongings were sold. (credit: CBS) We got a look at what was inside, which included many knives of different shapes and sizes. There was a photo of Hoskins shirtless displaying the Madonna tattoo on his stomach. There was also a picture of the singer striking a similar pose. There were hand-written rantings complete with misspellings included among Hoskins belongings, which were laid out for us to see.

The bootstrap brilliance alone dicates a look at the video that accompanies the above photo: a performance of Madonna's entire Super Bowl halftime show featuring not just a Material Girl impersonator, but also LMFAO, Nicki Minaj and M.I.A. cameos. (And, yes, the erstwhile M.I.A. does flip the bird at the crowd at the proper time.) Cee Lo Green makes an appearance at the end. The extravaganza took place at Victoria Haus in Brasilia, Brazil, and features the drag queen Alexia Twister as Madonna, who over the course of 13-plus minutes -- and with the help of a few scrappy background dancers and a rear-projection screen casting images from the actual halftime show -- runs through all the vogue moves, cartwheels, booty bounces and miscellaneous ridiculousness within Madge's performance.

"Girls Gone Wild," the second single from Madonna 's " MDNA," was born from the remote union of two Italian producers and a Canadian writer, all signed to Patrick Moxey's Ultra Music. "Obviously it's huge for us," Moxey tells Billboard.com. "We have both the producer and the top-line writer; that's 100% share." The mid-tempo, four-on-the-floor party track is a tougher take on the style of Madge's 2005 effort, "Confessions On A Dancefloor," produced by Stuart Price: It's undeniably dance, but with stronger electro than house markings. ("MDNA" in totality will probably be more diverse, featuring the production of disco house champion Martin Solveig on four tracks, and the darker, trance-ier William Orbit on five.)

RIP Madonna became a Twitter trend early today, the same day that singer Whitney Houston is being buried. The death hoax began trending hours before Houston's funeral is scheduled to begin. There are no official reports that Madonna, who recently performed at the 2012 Super Bowl , has died. However Twitter death hoaxes are not new. Following his performance on the Grammys, singer RIP Chris Brown began trending. Prior to brown's death hoax, actor Keanu Reeves was falsely reported as dead on Twitter while Houston was still being mourned by her fans. Others who celebrities such as Bon Jovi, Eddie Murphy have been declared dead on Twitter. Here is how some Twitter users are responding to the fake death report: -- "RIP Madonna is trending. I don't really like her, but to joke about that and also write "hope she's dead" is just stupid and disrespectful" -- "Why start an untrue "RIP Madonna" trend?
