On February 5, Indianapolis will host Super Bowl XLVI — the 46th iteration of America's biggest game. Millions of fans will gather 'round the television set with seven-layer dip and cold drinks to watch an epic match-up of teams, the year’s funniest and most expensive commercials and most importantly — as far as we're concerned — Madonna's Super Bowl halftime show. The newly minted Interscope singer has been on her grind lately, promoting her Golden Globe-winning directorial debut W.E., unleashing a super sexy fragrance line and gearing up for the release of her 12th studio album MDNA and a world tour.
With so much going on, can Madonna still quarterback a show as memorable as these 10 amazing Super Bowl halftime performances? More »

Kanye West And Prince Hit Way Out West In Sweden With “If I Was Your Girlfriend”
Sun Aug 14 2011 by Idolator Staff
If the collaboration between Jay-Z and Kanye West is called The Throne, what do we call it when 'Ye teams up with Prince? The whole freakin' castle? We are as of now unaware of any planned LP in the works, but the Maybach speed demon did join the royal Purple One on stage at Way Out West in Sweden for a rousing rendition of "If I Was Your Girlfriend," cheered on by a justifiably boisterous crowd. Previously joined on stage by such heavyweights as Gwen Stefani and Whitney Houston, the 21 Night Stand-er has possibly outdone himself by sharing the spotlight with Yeezy. Watch below. More »

Prince Reigns At Hollywood’s Troubadour, Announces 5 Tour Dates
Thu May 12 2011 by Idolator Staff
Prince, on the verge of his 53rd birthday, remains a master of surprises. (Surf rock? A Minnesota Vikings fight song? The View?) But Prince caught Hollywood completely off-guard yesterday with the sudden announcement that he would play two sets Wednesday night at the venerable (but only 500-capacity) Troubadour club. Separately, word came that the Purple One would continue his Los Angeles residency with 5 more Welcome 2 America dates. Which you should catch.
We — along with Kim Kardashian, who got to see His Majesty up close at once least once before; Glee warbler Darren Criss; and our buddy Trent from Pink Is The New Blog — had the enormous privilege of seeing Prince rock the tiny house with a strictly-for-fans double set that spanned rare tunes, romantic classics and a new song, "When She Comes". Dearly beloved, check our full review (with setlist) below. More »

Whitney Houston And Chaka Khan Sing Us Something Good At Prince’s Concert
Sat May 7 2011 by Idolator Staff
Who does Prince have to bring to the stage to make sure fans leave his concerts happy? Absolutely no one, besides himself of course. But that didn't stop the regal singer from plucking two more heavy-hitters from his (no doubt) diva-filled Rolodex at Thursday night's Forum show — one-upping last week's Gwen Stefani appearance with the one-two-punch of Whitney Houston and Chaka Khan. The legendary ladies crooned "Tell Me Something Good" together, prompting us to wonder what other music royalty the Purple One might conjure up for his 21 Night Stand. At this point, even the reanimated corpse of Mozart would hardly surprise us. Check out the vid below.
