Madonna, the world's tastiest sweetheart, has announced more non-stop treats for her legions of legendary and devoted fans. Following the latest news that "Hard Candy" has debuted at Number 1 around the globe, it has been confirmed that Madonna's "Sticky & Sweet Tour" will begin (hip) hopping around the world on August 23rd in Cardiff, Wales with stops in major European markets through September including London, 11-September, and Paris, 20-September.

Confirmed today by Guy Oseary, Madonna's manager and Arthur Fogel, Live Nation's CEO Global Touring and Chairman Global Music, who is producing the tour, "Sticky & Sweet" will play arenas and stadiums throughout Europe and North America including a number of cities where Madonna has not performed in the past fifteen years. "Sticky & Sweet" will be directed by Madonna's long time creative collaborator Jamie King. The musical director will be Kevin Antunes. The complete tour itinerary is listed below with additional cities and dates to be announced. For complete tour and ticket information, fans can visit livenation.com and madonna.com.

"Hard Candy," Madonna's 11th studio album for Warner Bros.

The album has received Four Stars in Rolling Stone, Blender and People Magazine with The NY Daily News hailing "Hard Candy" as Madonna's greatest album ever. Madonna's current smash single "4 Minutes" was co-written and co-produced by Madonna, Timbaland and Justin Timberlake. "Hard Candy" is the Number One most downloaded digital album in the U.S. and many other countries. Madonna's previous studio album "Confessions On A Dance Floor" sold over 8.5 million copies.

Madonna and Live Nation entered into a revolutionary partnership last fall and her last three worldwide tours were produced by Live Nation. A multi-Grammy award winner and recent inductee into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Madonna has long been known for groundbreaking multi-dimensional tours that consist of visual and audio extravaganzas with non-stop singing and breathtaking dancing. Madonna's last outing, 2006's acclaimed Confessions Tour played in 25 countries including Russia, reached a collective audience of over 1.3 million fans, and was the highest grossing concert tour of all time by a female artist.

It's not 'they might see'! With confessions it was exactly the same! They announced 1 or 2 in each place and then they added like crazy every day!!

I can't pass up a chance to see this hag in Houston. I thought I wouldn't see the day where she'd perform there. Looks like I'm gonna have to bite the bullet and pay for this bitch. I've been given no choice. EFF YOU MADONNA.

the Houston show is at a baseball stadium. :confused: I don't want that to be my only time seeing Madonna this year. I am definitely thinking about going to NYC for an arena show.
