Madonna has kicked butt and taken names once again. It was just a year ago that she proclaimed this year she would make a fierce comeback forecasting her Superbowl performance, a #1 MDNA album, and another record on the dance/club play charts. Madonna appeared on Anderson Live, an amazing appearance on Ellen with her son Roco, and even listened to a few of our other fan suggestions.
Madonna’s achievements included earning the most votes for favorite Billboard 200 No. 1 album with her chart-topping “MDNA”; winning the Best Tour crown for her MDNA trek, which grossed more money than any other run this year, according to Billboard Boxscore; nabbing favorite TV performance for her Super Bowl halftime show extravaganza last February; and even winning most memorable feud for her war of words with Lady Gaga. For that incredible year, Madonna was handed the MVP crown from last year’s winner, Britney Spears; in doing so, she topped Frank Ocean, Taylor Swift and Nicki Minaj, who came in second, third and fourth in voting, respectively.
Of course we all know that the drama between Lady Gaga and Madonna is mostly fabricated as they both have the same tour stages, record promoters, and concert promoters, and likely speak on the phone figuring out how they can combat Taylor Swift and other radio play thugs. Or at least they should be.
We were glad to see Britney Spears ranked as #1 on the biggest money making female in music this year and Madonna as the #1 Tour of the year. MDNA was an amazing tour and we hope that she re-invents it and puts on a second leg across the US and Europe and hopefully Australia.
