MADONNA CAN TAKE SOME HEAT- BUT CAN HER FANS?

#madonna #janetcharlton #abudhabi

Madonna thinks nothing of doing yoga in temperatures over 100 degrees so she wants to sing and dance in the same kind of desert heat in Abu Dhabi. She performs tonight for an audience of 28,000 people there, and requested that the air conditioning be turned OFF in the venue! She was warned that she could overheat and collapse, but she’s determined to challenge herself. Okay, Madonna, but what about the 28,000 sweltering people in the audience who paid a fortune to see you?

Business Card Concert Kanye West Tantrum

KANYE WEST HAD A CLOSE CALL WITH A BUSINESS CARD

Prickly Kanye West lost the holiday spirit when he had a tantrum onstage in Tacoma, Washington and threatened to kick out a whole section of the audience. Someone had the nerve to throw a business card onstage and Kanye stopped the music, picked it up, and said “Whose card is this? We risking our LIVES up here! You can’t go throwing shit that we gonna slip on!! I see it come from that direction – unless one person raises their hand and says ‘I did it’- all that section gotta go!”! The guilty party finally confessed and was tossed out and Kanye managed to finish the show without falling down.

Booze Concert Lady Gaga Mother Tour

LADY GAGA’S MOM IS ON THE TOUR BUS

Lady Gaga is in the habit of getting very run down on her tours by keeping late hours, partying too much, and not eating. So she invited her mom to come along on her current tour and keep an eye on her. Cynthia Germanotta, 56, is traveling on the tour bus with her daughter and she’s determined to keep her healthy. Hopefully, Gaga will be eating more and drinking less, and her only health threat will be her absurdly high platform shoes.

Concert Davy Jones Mickey Dolenz Mike Nesmith Peter Tork The Monkees

THE MONKEES MINUS ONE ARE BACK ON TOUR

Three fourths of The Monkees need the money so they’re going back on tour in the UK. Peter Tork, 69, Mickey Dolenz and Davy Jones, both 65, will be back on “The Last Train to Clarksville” this spring. Mike Nesmith left the group in 1971 and never looked back, in spite of fans protests. He had family money (his mother invented white-out and sold at the right time) and got into country rock and his own group. Every few years the other guys reunite for some concerts without him.

Britney Spears Concert Jealousy Lady Gaga

BRITNEY SPEARS CAN’T FIGURE OUT LADY GAGA’S FANS

Backstage sources at last weekend’s Lady Gaga concert in Los Angeles tell us that Britney Spears was prominently featured in the audience. Observers were surprised when Britney got up, looking very exasperated, and LEFT after the third song. Apparently Britney was disgusted that Gaga got such a strong reaction from her screaming fans every time she said a word or made a move. With minimal effort, Gaga whipped her audience into a frenzy. As she stomped out, Britney was heard muttering “I can’t believe she gets so much attention for doing NOTHING!”

Concert Lady Gaga Rihanna Shoulderpads

RIHANNA SHOWS LADY GAGA HOW IT’S DONE

Lady Gaga’s elaborate concerts have raised the stakes for her competition and Rihanna is more than up for the challenge. Rihanna’s gigantic inflated shoulderpads eclipse Gaga’s huge shoulders as the singers compete for the most outrageous fashion. Rihanna took a month off from her “Last Girl on Earth” world tour and returned to the stage in Vancouver with new looks. Her stage design with moving platforms and elaborate props is described as staggering, and she has MORE costume changes than Gaga! So there.

Bondage Concert Essence Festival Janet Jackson

JANET JACKSON’S BACK AND SHE’S STILL “NASTY!”

Janet Jackson, 44, hasn’t performed for awhile so she was determined to prove she’s still got IT with her show at the Essence Festival in New Orleans. She seemed REALLY happy to be back in the spotlight and it showed. Her sexy bondage themed production featured futuristic S&M costuming and Janet’s new short haircut. Mid-concert she pulled a guy from the audience and trussed him up in a straight jacket device in a steel frame. (Sounds like Gaga, who stole the idea from Joey Arias.) She pranced around him like a dominatrix and he ended up flat on his back with her writhing on top of him. Naughty Janet danced as energetically as ever – her only concession to maturity was a bit of knee padding in her high boots.

Lou Reed is pictured here having breakfast with one of the loves of his life, his rat terrier Lollabelle. Lou and his partner, performance artist Laurie Anderson, are so crazy about their terrier that they create music to tantalize her canine ears and now they’re putting on a concert just for dogs in Australia! Reed and Anderson are headlining the Vivid Live festival in June and all their music will be high pitched and designed for doggy pleasure. Dog owners are advised to bring their pets to the event on leashes only. Can you imagine dogs in the audience singing and howling along to the high notes? We love it!

Whitney Houston is determined to finish her “Nothing But Love” tour and she performed with vigor during her rescheduled performance in Glasgow. (She had cancelled due to illness) Either this is a deceiving photo or she has plumped up a bit since the last time we saw her.
