Madonna has officially announced on her website that she is resuming her Sticky and Sweet tour and kicking it off again in Europe in July "hitting the cities she didn't get a chance to in 2008".

September 24th 2009 - Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane, Australia
September 26th 2009 - ANZ Stadium, Sydney, Australia
September 29th 2009 - Telstra Dome, Melbourne, Australia

Paula Does Kylie

Paula Abdul gave Kylie Spinning Around and now it looks like it's Kylie's turn to return the favour!  Paula's next single is a cover of Kylie's track Boombox which was recorded for X but not used.  Kylie did perform the track on her X2008 tour and fans were hoping for a release of some sort but it looks like the track is now a Paula song.  Paula will be premiering the song on her new show Paula Abdul's Rah Cheerleeding Bowl which is starting in the US this week.  You can listen to a sneak peak on her website here.
