The Album Title


I am having the worst nightmare trying to name my new album. I have suggested so many titles and each time I ask opinions, nobody likes the title. I haven’t had this much difficulty naming an album since “I’m Breathless.” Please suggest a title in the comments. I have to come up with a title within 4 weeks! It’s an emergency!

The Reviews Are In!


Today’s world premiere was hailed as the hottest ticket in town, but many people at the Berlin Film Festival were expecting Madonna’s directorial debut to fail spectacularly. Yet her new career got off to a surprisingly auspicious start without exactly convincing anyone that she should give up her old job.


Filth and Wisdom, a sprawling comedy, is a celebration of London’s ethnic stew, and stars Eugene Hutz as a Ukrainian gypsy with an intensely annoying habit of looking the camera in the eye and spouting gobbets of wisdom that have as much relevance to real life as Chinese fortune cookies. Hutz’s hero, Andriy, shares a dilapidated house with a collection of similarly unlikely characters. Vicky McClure’s Juliette works in a chemist shop and steals medicine for African orphans. Holly Weston is a ballerina (also named Holly) and a pole dancer at Beechman’s Exotic Gentleman’s Club. Richard E. Grant is Flynn, a blind professor with a shock of grey hair and rooms crammed with unread books.

Update


I know you’re so tired of waiting and anticipating; however, in reality waiting is not only the hardest thing. It is also an important part of pleasure. Waiting for something can make it so much more enjoyable. NOT! Seriously, I just wanted to let you know that the single has been prepared for shipment to radio! It is going to be just a little while longer before you hear it. I have approved all of the remixes personally and you are going to have so much fun dancing to them soon.


I have been so busy with saving the world and preparing the album release. I think making the music is actually as difficult as saving the world. Isn’t life complex and wonderful!
