Madonna and Diplo are not dating
According to Star, Madonna has been “going at it” with Diplo ever since she and the DJ collaborated on Madonna’s new album Rebel Heart.
Gossip Cop debunked this claim and was told “no way” this story is true.

Star is the same tabloid Gossip Cop busted last year for manufacturing a story about Madonna getting back with ex-husband, Sean Penn. That story was made up, and so is the new one about Diplo. A rep for Madonna laughed off the tabloid’s story, telling Gossip Cop exclusively there’s “no way” it’s true.

Madonna 89th on the SPIN “300 Best Albums of the Past 30 Years” list
SPIN hit a milestone this year: Their 30th birthday. To celebrate, they’vee ranked the 300 best albums of the past 30 years.

Madonna’s Like a Prayer album is 89th on the list…

89. Madonna, Like a Prayer
(Sire, 1989)

The controversy surrounding Like A Prayer’s title track overshadowed the fact that the album solidified Madonna’s evolution from pop tartlet to savvy adult artist. Working with longtime collaborator Patrick Leonard, Madge teamed up with Prince (!), made bold feminist statements (“Express Yourself”), and took a benevolent view of an imperfect dad (“Oh Father”) — all while dabbling in shiny funk, girl-group pop, and sweeping, orchestral ballads. — ANNIE ZALESKI
