The guitarist, who was planning on releasing an album after her O2 concerts with Michael Jackson, has moved up the release date of her album. The album, titled, “Believe” is set for release the day before “This Is It” hits theaters, on October 27, 2009.

I wouldn’t call it opportunistic, however, because her concerts with Michael aren’t exactly happening. She’s an extraordinary guitarist, so I hope her album does well.

In a recent interview, she talks about playing for Michael, jamming with Carlos Santana, and “This Is It”.

I can’t wait to hear what her new album sounds like, her guitar playing is phenomenal.

Rumors are flying saying that Madge is getting ready to settle down for the third time, but we’ll keep our ears to the ground for any confirmation on those.

As far as babies are concerned, when asked, Madge said, “Who knows? I have my hands full right now! I have no idea! That’s all I’m going to say. But we never say never.”

She’s so busy, though, all of her projects come before thoughts of extending her family again. She added, “I have several projects going. I have another script that I’ve written, and I want to direct another film. Hopefully, I’ll be doing that next year. I also have many projects going on in Africa right now that I want to bring to fruition, like building a girls school and working on two new documentaries.”

We’ll see if she has time to adopt again!

Michael and Madonna had befriended each other in the 1990s and even dated for a hot minute, but his friend Rabbi Shmuley Boteach is saying that Michael thought she was madly in love with him.

He said that Michael told him, “I think she likes shock value and she knows how to push buttons on people. I think she was sincerely in love with me and I was not in love with her. She did a lot of crazy things. I knew we had nothing in common.”

Michael went on to reveal, “She is not sexy at all. I think sexy comes from the heart and in the way you present yourself.”

He went on to say that he felt that Madonna envied his fame. He added, “They admire you and you know you are wonderful and great because they are jealous, because they wish they were in your shoes. Madonna is one of them. She is jealous. She is a girl, a woman and I think that’s what bothers her… I get the fainting and adulation and she doesn’t.”

Oh snap. It kind of puts her VMAs speech in perspective now, doesn’t it?

Do you believe these rumors?

She had her party at the Boom Boom Room nightclub and ordered her security team not to let Lindsay in to crash.

It was said that Madonna was upset that Lindsay got the job as artistic adviser to Emanuel Ungaro’s fashion line, instead of her. Thus the reason for the LiLo ban.

The purported title of the secret song has not yet been released, but it’s set to become a huge hit.

A source said, “It sounds awesome. The size and scope of the orchestra hasn’t been seen since Ray Charles recorded ‘Georgia.’ Everyone expects a huge hit. But they’re worried about it getting out – they’ve hired huge bodyguards to stand by the studio door.”

I can’t wait to hear it. I have a feeling Michael Jackson tunes will be leaking from here to eternity.

When you think of The Beatles, I’m sure the first thought that doesn’t come to your mind is drugs. Am I close? Former Beatle Paul McCartney tells us otherwise.

In a new interview, McCartney says, “We were overdoing substances and really getting crazy, as we all were….falling asleep – the kinda thing when you can hardly get your head off the pillow. You go, ‘Woah, I’d better get my head off this pillow.’”

He said that their drug induced days inspired them to write “Let It Be.” McCartney explains, “I had a dream, where my mother, who had been dead, by then, ten years came to me in the dream and was very sort of helpful and very calming, and it was lovely just to see her…and she said, ‘Don’t worry about it…Let it be.’”

He adds, “I went, ‘Okay’, and I felt so good… and I woke up and wrote Let It Be. I thought, ‘That’s a good idea for a song.’”

Who knew that this four clean cut boys were into such mayhem?

So far, Chris Brown and Mary J. Blige have said they won’t be the entertainment for the evening. Now, another one bites the dust.

Natalie Cole has said that she will not be in attendance for the tribute concert because she has a previous engagement with the Dalai Lama in Memphis.

All three performers still appear on the Tribute Concert’s website. What was Jermaine thinking to announce all of these entertainers just to have most of them pull out? I think he did it for the publicity and the money.

Jermaine just announced the list of entertainers who would be at the tribute concert yesterday:

He commented that they’ll have a few surprises planned for the concert, along with having Angela Bassett present and Sister Sledge performing.

When a TMZ cameraman caught up with Mary and her entourage and asked whether or not they were excited for the tribute concert, they had no idea what that was all about.

The concert is scheduled for September 26, 2009 at the Schonbrunn Palace in Vienna.

Is Sister Sledge going to pull out now?

Chris’ rep has dashed any plans that the singer would be performing for the September 26th show, saying, “Chris is not confirmed to perform or participate in any capacity for this show.”

He would have to have the trip okay’ed by a judge, considering he’s on probation for the next five years. Considering his criminal behavior against Rihanna, I think this is for the best. Don’t you?

The song she selected? “You’ll See”. What great choice! Think she’ll rock it?

A source said, “Susan chose it herself – it’s a song she has loved for years. She sang it at auditions for TV shows and music contests when she used to be cruelly turned away by people. At the end, when she was sometimes reduced to tears, she used to say, ‘You’ll See’. And she’s proof she can do it now as one of the most famous women in the world.”

I don’t think she’ll get turned away anymore! Can’t wait to hear her version of the song!
