The NFL has reportedly locked down Madonna to do at the Super Bowl XLVI Halftime Show in February, according to SB Nation. Sources close to the case tell the sports blog that the Material Girl will be front and center Feb. 5 at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.
The NFL has not issued a remark and Madonna's publicist, Liz Rosenberg, tells Billboard.com that there is "naught to support or deny at this time.
At the Toronto International Film Festival, each movie showing opens with a pre-roll of messages meant to inform the press, industry folk and public about different aspects of the major event. Amongst the most outstanding of these ads is a serial of sketches featuring famous directors in messy scenarios, a form of parallel universe that would explode without the assistance of the festival's ubiquitous and dutiful orange-shirted volunteers. The ad ends with a thank you to the unpaid staff for all their tough work, and the audience, on cue, applauses resoundingly.
Maybe she hasn't seen a picture at the festival yet, or perhaps they gave her a posy of hydrangeas; either way, Madonna, according to a story in Toronto's Globe and Mail, did not quite show the same taste for the volunteers' tireless hustle.
The "W.E." director premiered her picture at the festival Monday night, and originally in the day, sat down for a press conference with a gaggle of international reporters. Backstage, before the event, word is that she refused to leave the volunteers to still looking at her in the eye. Instead, as a volunteer told the paper, they had to grow their backs to her as she made her way to speak with the assembled masses.
Clearly, Madonna doesn't deal comfortably with the short people press events; it was in Venice that she made her infamous hydrangea diss. Which, by the way, she refuses to let go away.

It sounds like someone missed the memorandum that this week was suppose to be "Positive" Madonna news week! First there was the word that Madonna along with Queen-in-waiting, Lourdes, were expanding the Material Girl fashion line with not only cosmetic products, (nail polishes, lip gloss, body sprays, lotions), but also sleepwear and intimates, (push-up bras, bustiers, contraceptives, morning after pills, spring rain douches, etc).

Hats off: Madonna recycles her image and harks back to her Eighties style on classic Open Your Heart video with a hat 
Last year I set myself the dispute of watching every Madonna video - all 68 of them. I generally enjoy Madge`s oeuvre, and she is indeed noteworthy not simply as a pop singer but likewise as a video artist. She helped build the rising art of the music video.
But yet I was reasonably certain I hadn`t seen every one of her music videos, particularly that point in the late `90s when I`d sort of gone off her for a bit.
