Madonna’s Masterpiece not nominated for an Oscar
Thirty-nine songs from eligible feature-length motion pictures are in contention for nominations in the Original Song category for the 84th Academy Awards®, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced today.
Unfortunately, Madonna’s song “Masterpiece” for the movie “W./E.” was not nominated.
The song that received a Golden Globe nomination last week, did not qualify for Oscar contention because of its placement a minute-and-a-half deep in the final credits. AMPAS rules require an end-credits song to be “the first music cue” in those credits to qualify.

M.I.A. recently tweeted the following picture.
Could this be from the set of “Gimme all your Luvin”?

Madonna wishes a Merry Christmas
Madonna prays for Molly Meldrum
On 15 December 2011, Meldrum was taken to the Alfred Hospital in a critical condition after being found unconscious in the backyard of his home in Richmond. He is believed to have fallen off a ladder from a height of around three metres.
He was placed under intensive care in a sedated state and had surgery for his head injuries. As well as the head injuries, Meldrum had a broken shoulder, broken ribs, a punctured lung and cracked vertebrae.
Madonna told the Sunday Herald Sun…
He is a one and only. I’ve always adored Molly and I’m praying around the clock.
She said Meldrum had been an inspiration throughout her career.
Cirque du Soleil and Madonna
Montreal acrobatic choreographer Debra Brown has made people fly with Cirque du Soleil for nearly 25 years, but when she had to do the same for Madonna, she felt like a student again.
She currently choreographs the Cirque touring show “Quidam” that runs at Toronto’s Ricoh Coliseum Dec. 20-30 and said…
Madonna’s impressive. Her discipline and her talent — I learned a lot.
