Too Scent-sitive for ABC


Madonna’s cleavage is just too much for Disney-owned ABC. The network says Madonna’s ads for her Truth or Dare perfume are too racy to run and have insisted that shots of her breasts and behind be covered up. ABC execs ordered producers of the perfume ad to digitally alter offending shots of her body in the 30-second black-and-white ad, which leaked on the Internet yesterday and shows her cavorting in a low-cut corset and fishnet stockings, wearing a cross and singing over a dance beat, “I’m a bad girl.” A source told us: “ABC viewed the ad [and] came back with a list of changes. They say they want her bra digitally made bigger, and to extend higher to cover more of her chest, and her corset longer to cover more of her bottom. ABC also wants to cut another suggestive scene where Madonna writhes around.” Ironically, Madonna’s team wanted the ads to run during the shows “GCB” and “Scandal.” But even once the requested changes are made, ABC brass think Madonna’s sexy black-and-white ad can only run after 9 p.m. — oddly with the exception of daytime show “The View” (perhaps because its viewers are unshockable). Page Six earlier reported that Madonna’s video for her new song, “Girl Gone Wild,” had to be re-edited after YouTube banned it from open view and slapped it with an “18 years and over” rating because of racy content. A second source confirmed to us, “ABC has requested some changes be made to the content of the Truth or Dare perfume commercial.”

Madonna on Course for UK #1 Debut, Will Break Elvis Presley Record

Madonna’s new album MDNA is on course to top the charts on both sides of the Atlantic, according to midweek figures.
If the album makes number one in the UK, she will beat the record currently held by Elvis Presley for the most number one albums by a solo artist.
It would be her 12th appearance at number one, including compilations The Immaculate Collection and Celebration, and the Evita soundtrack.
MDNA has shifted 39,000 copies so far, said the Official Charts Company.
In the US, it is expected to sell 300,000 – 350,000 copies, almost double this week’s number one, which is the soundtrack to action movie The Hunger Games.
It will be the pop star’s eighth number one album in the US, and the first-week sales will be higher than those of Madonna’s last studio album, Hard Candy, which debuted at number one with 280,000 copies sold, according to US chart compilers Nielsen SoundScan.
Madonna still has some way to go to break the record for the most number one albums in the UK. That honour is held by the Beatles, who topped the charts 15 times.

Madonna Set for Big Billboard 200 Debut

Madonna’s 12th studio album, ‘MDNA,’ is on course to easily debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart next week. Industry sources suggest the set could sell between 300,000 to 350,000 copies by the end of the tracking week on Sunday, April 1.
If ‘MDNA’ lands atop the list, it will mark the queen of pop’s eighth No. 1 album and her fifth consecutive studio set to debut in the penthouse. Her last studio album, 2008′s ‘Hard Candy,’ started at No. 1 with 280,000 sold according to Nielsen SoundScan.
The new Billboard 200 chart’s top 10 will be revealed on the morning of Wednesday, April 4.
Madonna’s first No. 1 came on the Billboard 200 chart dated Feb. 9, 1985, when her second album, ‘Like a Virgin,’ began a three-week run at the top.
‘MDNA’s’ first week will be bolstered by a successful album sales promotion involving Madonna’s upcoming world tour. U.S. customers who bought a concert ticket also had the option of also receiving ‘MDNA’ as part of their purchase. The only sales that will count towards Billboard’s charts are those where the customer opted to receive the album.
