LMFAO feels like Madonna
Lion-maned DJ RedFoo from LMFAO told the Daily Star…

We wanted to be No 1 this year. We had been doing LMFAO for three or four years and were big in the clubs but not in the pop world.
We never experienced being No 1, but always wanted to be mentioned in the same sentence as Michael Jackson, Madonna and Lady Gaga.
Now with two No1s in a row and a killer album that is full of hits we’ve done it. We know what it feels like to entertain the world like Lady Gaga or Madonna.

Comeback Brands Of 2012
Jenna Goudreau wrote an article for Forbes in which she asks herself the follwing questions…

So which consumer brands and personalities will make a splashy comeback in 2012? Branding and marketing experts make their predictions for the New Year.

According to Forbes, Madonna is one of those splashy comebacks of 2012…

Miriam Quart, president of ad agency Madison Avenue Consortium, calls the one-name legend “the original Gaga factor” and predicts she will return to prominence in the New Year. Love her or hate her, Madonna remains a household name. According to The Marketing Arm’s Celebrity DBI, an independent index that quantifies consumer perceptions of celebrities, 99% of U.S. customers are at least familiar with her. Considering her recent hiatus, that makes the Material Girl ripe for a major comeback. She will release a new single, “Gimme All Your Luvin,” in January. Then she will take to the nation’s biggest stage on February 5, headlining the Super Bowl’s halftime performance using a theatrical Cirque du Soleil concept. In March, she will release her first album in five years through Universal Music Group’s Interscope Records–just the first in a reported three-album deal.
