"Do you like people from Iran?" Before going out last night, if I had bothered to compile a list of the Top 5 things I least expected to be asked, that might have been near the top of it, especially considering that the person who wanted to know, a handsome tourist from Tehran, was by far the best-looking guy in the bar. "Have you seen Shohreh Aghdashloo [an Iranian-American Best Supporting Actress Oscar nominee for The House of Sand and Fog ], or Nadia Bjorlin [the half-Persian actress who plays Chloe on [...]

Photos by G. Art by Alec Monopoly. Alec Monopoly - under the black light I've been writing about Lab Art in Los Angeles since they opened their doors and because I live in New York, I always miss their openings. The stars aligned and I was finally able to attend my first Lab Art opening and it was a big one: Alec Monopoly's first solo show in Los Angeles! Michael Jackson by Alec [...]
A few months ago, I was listening to one of Zimmer's mixtapes and noted some of Madonna's 'Get Together' vocals had been used in a glorious tropical disco flavored track. I finally went back to the tracklist and discovered it was Chordashian's 'Illusion.' It's such an incredibly sexy track and always brings a smile to my [...]
On the occasion of his recent slew of TV appearances and his latest single “Mirrors” topping the UK chart — and just in time for the March 19th release of his third solo album, the intriguingly titled The 20/20 Experience — we’re taking a stroll down Sexyback Lane for a look back at the talented Mr. Timberlake’s most scintillating music videos. And what qualifies these clips as scintillating, you may ask? Oh, you know: JT’s signature brand of soulful crooning, those sly, come-hither looks, plenty of intricate choreography [...]

Era la fine del 1992, verso l'inizio del 1993. Madonna prende una pausa per rilasciare un'intervista in merito ai suoi nuovi impegni. Ad ottobre di quell'anno era uscito l'album scandalo "Erotica" e il libro "Sex" con una serie di immagini realizzate da Steven Meisel con la direzione artistica di Fabien Baron. L'anno successivo, poi, sarebbe uscito il film "Body of Evidence - Corpo del reato". Più di vent'anni fa, Madonna oggi è ancora sulle copertine, i suoi concerti sono spesso sold out e il pubblico non ha mai smesso di amarla. Ecco la sua intervista [...]

Madonna 's recent arrival to the Instagram party has been delightfully weird, rule-breaking and, as is her usual M.O., rather iconic. (So much so, in fact, that each new upload seems to warrant another post here at MuuMuse.) But in the past few days, the Queen of Pop has been doing more than just channeling Bettie Paige for Purim and stanning hard for Frida Kahlo , Marilyn Minter and Man Ray . No, she's got something up her kimono sleeves-she's going to tell us a secret [...]
After a six-year hiatus to pursue a not-completely-horrible acting career, Justin Timberlake dusted off his microphone and picked up exactly where he left off at the end of the FutureSex/LoveSounds era — by bringing innovative yet distinctly retro-tinged R&B back to the airwaves and charts. Producer pal Timbaland might have helped a little. Together they crafted the super-slick “Suit & Tie” , which stayed true to JT’s collaborative approach by calling on the services of rap legend Jay-Z . While the first taste of The 20/20 Experience [...]
Did You Hear? :: Justin Bieber is the undisputed king of Twitter , but not every tweeter these days is a fan of the Biebs. After the Canadian popstar was spotted wandering the streets of London shirtless, actress Olivia Wilde tweeted, suggesting that he "put his fucking shirt on." Olivia, please don't ruin this for the rest of us. [ E! ] :: Madonna will be presenting Anderson Cooper with an award at this year's GLAAD Media Awards on March 16. Madge has long been supportive of [...]
One of our favorite things about Backtracking , aside from celebrating music milestones, is that it gives us the perfect excuse to dust off an old favorite album and listening to it all the way through. As wrote up our latest Backtracking honoree, Madonna 's Ray Of Light , and gave it another spin we got to thinking, "This would be a lot more fun to listen with you, the pop faithful!" So for the first time ever we'll be having a [...]
I have written so much about these three artists that I literally have nothing else to day about them other than that I think they're rad and that these remixes are equally rad so you should download them. Pet Shop Boys Rent (The Francois Kervorkian Remix) What Have I Done To Deserve This? (Dub Mix) First of all, the official title of the 123 single that I got this from is "What Have I Done To Deserve This/Rent." I totally read that as "What have [...]

Sunday, March 3rd was the fifteenth anniversary of Madonna' s amazing Ray Of Light album. To celebrate, I did a piece for Idolator , which includes some comments from Rick Nowels , the legendary songwriter who co-write nine tracks with Madonna for ROL, three of which made the final cut. Here is a sweet comment Rick made that I did not put in the piece: Every night I would drive home with a new beautiful Madonna song playing in my car. It was a happy and very [...]
Backtracking is our recurring look back at the pop music that shaped our lives. Friends may come and go, but we’ll be spinning our favorite albums forever. When Madonna arrived at a Los Angeles studio in summer 1997, ready to record what would become Ray Of Light , her seventh album of original material, she'd already spent months writing demos with her longtime collaborator Patrick "Live To Tell" Leonard and songwriter Rick Nowels . Fueled by a love of then-current electronic music coming out of the UK [...]

Title: "Closer" Artist: Jamie Lynn Noon Released: 02/19/13 What to know: "Closer" is Jamie Lynn Noon's third release. The EP was self-written, self-produced, and mastered by Grammy-winning engineer Brian "Big Bass" Gardner (Calvin Harris, Katy Perry, Madonna, Michael Jackson). Standouts: "Closer" "Going, Going, Gone" "If You Didn't Feel"
What's the noise coming from the day room? Oh, it's Mr Morrissey muttering to himself about how things were better in the olden days : The 53-year-old singer believes people are ''encouraged not to think'' so outspoken or political artists are not able to flourish, and few pop acts are able to work on their own terms. He said: "The arts have diminished, because we are now living through a time when we are encouraged not to think. No one making music wants to waste time struggling with art. A group like the Sex Pistols [...]

Who wore their weave best ? The MADGE or her plus one love aka the Brahim Zaibat ?

The MADONNA 's newest weave is looking ferosh via her latest Instagram post. Sadly the she-popper's account has been threatened to be shut down for violating its terms, which you can read all about and then wonder why the RIHANNA hasn't received a warning yet.
Madonna has violated Instagram's community guidelines, and her account could be shut down as a result. On February 23 and on Instagram - where else? - the pop provocateur posted the site's warning letter that strongly suggested to delete photos "that aren't yours" and "show nudity or mature content," among other potentially offensive content. Madonna had joined Instagram less than two weeks prior, and neither Madonna nor Instagram have cited the exact photos that caused concern. What do you think of Madonna's Instagram woes? Let us know [...]

If you're anything like me, you might be sitting at home right now eating buffalo wings and wondering to yourself: Say, what's Madonna doing tonight? Don't worry. Now that the Queen of Pop's got Instagram, we know exactly what she's doing with her Saturday night: Trying on a Bettie Page wig, applying a thick coat of scarlet lipstick and striking a pose for the camera. Stars-they're just like us! (She looks fucking gorgeous, no? Those eyes! Like a dominatrix version of "Rain.") M's been a straight-up Insta-holic ever since she [...]
Madonna has been named the biggest money maker in the music industry - with her world tour helping her take home almost $34.6m (£23m) last year.

Thanks to her MDNA tour (mostly) the MADONNA leads Billboard's 2013 Top 40 money makers. The one and only QUEEN OF POPPERS. Get the rest of the list, which includes a whole heapa white country men, here . Spoiler alert. You woulda thunk the BRIT's X-Factory payout woulda had her on that list.
