MADONNA ÚJ ALBUMA, AZ IGAZÁN FINOM “HARD CANDY” ÁPRILIS 29-ÉN JELENIK MEG A WARNER KIADÁSÁBAN MADONNA 11. szólóalbuma a Warner Bros. Recordsnál „HARD CANDY” címen április 28-án jelenik meg világszerte, 29-én pedig az Egyesült Államokban kerül a boltokba – erősítette meg az énekesnő lemezkiadója. A ”HARD CANDY”-t (ami egyébként Madonna előző albumának, a „CONFESSIONS ON A DANCE FLOOR”-nak a folytatása, ami 30 országban debütált a listák élén, és több mint 8 millió példányban kelt el) úgy jellemezték, mint 12 gyors dal briliáns gyűjteményét, melyekben Madonna megmarad a kényelmes, előkészített klub-stílusnál, de ezúttal egy kis hip-hop ritmussal is fűszerezi a dalokat. Ebben olyan zenészek voltak a segítőtársai, mint Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, Pharrell Williams a Neptunesból és Nate „Danja” Hills. Az első kislemez, mely a lüktető „4 Minutes” lesz, március végén jelenik meg. „A cím a keménység és az édes egymás mellé állítása… olyasmi, mintha azt mondanám, hogy jól seggbe rúglak, de ettől te majd tök jól fogod magad érezni. És persze imádom a cukorkát” – mondta nevetve a „material girl”. MADONNA, aki többszörös Grammy díjas énekesnő, dalszerző, producer, kulturális ikon, világhírű előadóművész és újító, gyermekkönyvek szerzője, rendező és dokumentumfilmes, 200 millió eladott albummal büszkélkedhet a példa nélküli, több mint 20 éve tartó karrierje során. Az énekesnő a jelölése szerint március 10-én került be a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame-be. www.warnermusic.hu www.madonna.com

Condomania's Madonna Condom Giveaway Winners.
Category: Press Release.
FIRST PUBLISHED ON A MADONNA WEBSITE

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Condomania (http://www.condomania.com), America's First Condom Store, announced today the winners of its Madonna Condom Giveaway. Condomania produced the contest to encourage the creative promotion of safer sex awareness. CEO Adam Glickman explains, "Over the last four years the Bush administration has distorted scientific knowledge to further a political and ideological agenda. Consequently, many young people have been denied access to honest sexual education and the information needed to protect them. For our part, we wanted to provide a fun way for health agencies to fight back and increase awareness about safer sex, STDs and the importance of condoms."
The contest was open to nonprofit organizations that were interested developing a fun and unique way to use the condoms in their outreach activities. Every entry received 100 free Condomania Condoms just for sending in a proposal.
The grand prize of 21,000 Madonna Condoms (7,000 3-packs featuring the pop singer's licensed image from her early days) went to Douglas County AIDS Project (DCAP) of Lawrence, Kansas. They specialize in HIV/AIDS services in a three county area in northeast Kansas. They plan to put the Madonna Condoms to use during Pride Week at the University of Kansas where they will host a Madonna look-alike drag show that will entertain and educate about safer sex and HIV/AIDS prevention.
Upon hearing the news, DCAP's Executive Director Geri Summer exclaimed, "We are so thrilled! It came at a perfect time, too, as we had to reduce our budget this year due to cuts in funding."
The second place prize of 6,000 Madonna Condoms went to Vox: Voices for Planned Parenthood of Franklin & Marshall College in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. They plan to throw an 80s Safer Sex Party on campus with plenty of music by Madonna, sexy food, and games that educate about safer sex.
The third place prize of 3,000 Madonna Condoms went to the Planned Parenthood Association of Pennsylvania. They plan to hand out the Madonna Condoms during a "Pub Crawl" which they use to train their volunteers in the art of grassroots campaigning. They walk the streets and visit bars, wearing shirts proclaiming their support for safer sex, handing out supplies, and registering supporters to vote and get involved with Planned Parenthood.

Musicians such as, Paul McCartney, Keith Richards, Tony Bennett, Paul Schaeffer, Steve Miller, Brian Setzer, Joe Beck, Al Dimeola, George Benson and many others have performed with Les at Iridium Jazz Club.

Spirituality for Kids (SFK) is a unique educational program for children. This fun and interactive program provides children with many practical tools necessary for handling a multitude of life challenges.
Pop icon, Madonna, whose children are enrolled in the program, is one of the most prominent supporters of Spirituality for Kids. Recently, Madonna gave the keynote speech to a crowd of nearly 1,000 people including government officials, celebrities and other prominent luminaries at a special event for Spirituality for Kids.
SFK is unique because it delivers proactive life solutions before problems appear in a child's life. The program utilizes accelerated learning techniques in a fun environment where hands-on activities are part of a comprehensive multidisciplinary approach combining the arts, science and the wisdom of Kabbalah.
Contributions from the event will go to the Spirituality for Kids Outreach Program, which identifies at-risk children and their families and gives them the tools needed to lead productive and fulfilling lives. Here, children and parents are given new life skills. They are no longer educated about the laws of the street: rather, they are empowered with the spiritual laws of the universe. The program teaches children that they have the power to shape their own destinies.
The Outreach Program is provided to these families at no cost to the participants. Program materials, transportation, a nutritious lunch, and a host of other expenses are completely funded by the generosity of our supporters.
Spirituality for Kids believes that each child deserves to develop into a strong, clear happy human being who is in control of his/her destiny and on the path to achieving his/her full potential, living an extraordinary life defined by tolerance and human dignity.
The Iridium Jazz Club has been thrilling international jazz fans since 1994. Located at 1650 Broadway at 51st Street in a historic jazz neighborhood, Iridium Jazz Club has been designed to be among the best live music experiences available anywhere.
The Iridium Jazz Club also presents excellent upscale cuisine, outstanding service, an award winning wine list and one of the world's most intimate and visually exciting clubs.
New York Magazine named Iridium "New York's Best Jazz Club" and The New York Times called Iridium "one of New York's major jazz clubs."
The Iridium Jazz Club started with a mission in December 1994 to present local artists in an attractive setting. New York's jazz scene is littered with the remains of countless jazz clubs who shot up quickly, only to close soon after. The Iridium took an unplanned evolutionary approach: utilizing local artists culled from homemade tapes. Soon, Iridium was "discovered" and was fortunate to begin operations in the midst of a jazz revival, the success of jazz at Lincoln Center, and an affluent West Side looking to experience a real NY Jazz Club.
The club has undergone several renovations to keep up with its increasing popularity.
There have been many major releases recorded live at Iridium from such artists as Jacky Terrasson, Charlie Haden, Kenny Barron, Benny Carter, The Jazz Messengers, Sweets Edison, and Clark Terry.
