Madonna is expected to go on hols with boyfriend Akeem Morris, 29, for her birthday next week. Last year she celebrated in Pompeii. Other birthdays have included trips to Lisbon and Sicily. Meanwhile, Madonna has spent the past few years working on a movie about her life. Actress Julia Garner was lined up to play the Hung Up hitmaker in the film before it appeared to be left on the shelf over two years ago. Now it seems that plans have been re-imagined with Julia confirming last month she is still lined up to play the iconic popstar in a Netflix miniseries about her life. Madonna and Julia are working with filmmaker Shawn Levy on the project, which is in the early stages of development. Confirming that the project was still happening, despite the uncertainty, Julia told the SmartLess podcast: 'Yeah, I mean, that's supposed to still happen." However, she did appear to hint that the project may still be far off hitting screens as she affirmed that "anything that's great, takes time".

Madonna's New Album Doubles Her Career No. 1s Total
It's been more than half a decade since Madonna last released a new album, and as fans wait for her teased Confessions on a Dance Floor 2, which the singer has been hinting at for months, she's finding ways to keep her following engaged. Her latest set, Veronica Electronica, is a remix project built around the songs from Ray of Light, one of her most acclaimed albums. The project is clearly aimed at only the most die-hard Madonna superfans, and thankfully there are enough of those, so the remix effort becomes a quick win as it debuts. Madonna Scores Her Second No. 1 Dance Album Veronica Electronica opens at No. 1 on the Official Dance Albums chart this week. The singer manages a somewhat surprising achievement, as the project marks Madonna's second leader on the tally, which ranks the bestselling dance-only collections in the United Kingdom. The new release also becomes her third top 10 and fifth overall win on the genre-specific ranking. Two Decades Since Her First Dance Albums Leader Madonna first ruled the Official Dance Albums chart in 2005 with Confessions on a Dance Floor. That blockbuster opened in first place and went on to spend 13 weeks at the summit, powered by singles like 'Hung Up' and 'Sorry.' Almost exactly two decade later, she's back in charge with another dance-focused effort. Top 10 Debuts Across Multiple Rankings Beyond its triumph on the dance chart, Veronica Electronica starts inside the top 10 on four other U.K. tallies. It launches at No. 3 on both the Official Album Downloads and the Official Vinyl Albums charts simultaneously. The set also kicks off at No. 5 on both the Official Albums Sales list and the Official Physical Albums ranking as the remixed set becomes a fast top five win on multiple tallies. Madonna's Milestone New Album On the main Official Albums chart, Veronica Electronica opens at No. 23. While it doesn't break into the highest tier on that competitive ranking, its arrival still helps the superstar reach a special milestone, as it's Madonna's thirtieth career placement on the tally.
