Madonna has been touring for more than four years without releasing a new album, thanks to a $120 million Live Nation tour deal she signed in 2007. But now Live Nation is worried the absence of new material might hurt ticket sales, so they're letting her spend some time in the studio. As a result, she signed three-album deal with Interscope Records that will guarantee her $1 million a pop.

An unnamed source told the New York Post, "It’s just about keeping relevance so that she can tour. She is still in the demo phase, but the idea is to get the first album out early next year." Live Nation calls it a "360 Deal." Since the company isn't able to record new material, they have to work out deals with third-party record labels. The Washington Post notes Jay-Z and U2 have similar deals.

She has marketed herself to success but not through songwriting or singing. There are so many really gifted singers and performers.

I wish she would just retire already and stop making us suffer through her terrible music and fake British accent. She was only good back in the 80 and early 90s

Yes! Madonna's about to rule the world once again! She's beautiful, sexy, creative, smart and multi-talented. She's an excellent songwriter, dancer (very flexible), good at authoring books, directing movies, designing clothes and much more! Go, Madonna! Show hatards that obsess over your age and what not what you've got!

NO....but I'm looking forward to her actually singing some new material before her shows grow stagnant, I would feel a bit ripped off if I was one of her fans paying for the same show over-and-over. Nothing is ever new at these shows anyway, the outfits change and the ProTools get better!

The thing is about Little Monsters, we like Gaga not much because of her fashion. I'd personally place that on 7th position, I guess. The reason all Little Monsters seem weird is that fashion is the only obvious way fans can dedicate themselves to Mother Monster. So I'd put fashion in front of dancing and media-whoring, but behind songwriting, vocal talent, directing, personality, how she connects with her fans and philanthropy.

Vocal talent? Can some pop star out there do a full piano ballad? Sure, but a Jazz duet? Country slow-rock? Industrial music? In their own written lyrics? While touring 3 concerts a night? Can they direct music videos themselves? It's hard to keep track of all these especially when you're in some meat dress or a bubble dress stained in blood. And still make time to tweet before you go to bed, repeal to DADT and talk to the president about bullying, sell bracelets to donate for Japan and lipsticks for raising awareness for AIDS.

You see, within the short period of time, Gaga has done what Madonna had taken a long time to do.

Be real people--her 15 minutes of fame are up! Her new music will not be the same as it was in the 80's in that place at that time whether or not she can still hold a note...Why is it people can't just bow out gracefully in this business???
