Madonna is excitedly heading back to the company that first helped establish herself as the “Queen of Pop.” After nearly two decades away, the 67-year-old superstar has re-signed with Warner Records, the label behind some of her most iconic releases.

Madonna, who parted ways with Warner in 2007 after agreeing a landmark deal with Live Nation, hits a full-circle with the announcement. She is now a member of the organization that produced Hard Candy, Confessions on a Dance Floor, and American Life, among other career-defining projects.

Sharing the news with fans, Madonna posted a photo series to Instagram on Thursday, as she posed in gold heels, fishnet tights, and a very risqué silver sheer dress. “It Feels like home with Warner Records” she wrote. “Back to music, Back to the Dance Floor Back to where it all began.”

She confirmed that her next album, COADF – P. 2, will be released in 2026, along with the announcement. She and DJ Stuart Price, who released her 2005 smash hit Confessions on a Dance Floor, will reunite for the record.

Reflecting on her long career, Madonna said: “From being a struggling artist in New York City to signing a record deal to release just three singles, it seemed at the time my world would never be the same again and in fact that couldn’t have been truer.

Warner Records has been a genuine partner with me since the beginning. I’m relieved to be reunited, and I look forward to the future, making music, doing the unexpected, and perhaps starting some important conversations.

Following her most acclaimed studio release in seven years, Madame X, which received rave reviews from her millions of worldwide fans, will be her first in seven years.

Following the positive news, Warner Records’ Tom Corson and Aaron Bay-Schuck praised Madonna’s comeback as a historic occasion.

In a joint statement, they said, “We are honoured to welcome Madonna back home to Warner Records.” Madonna is the model, the breaker, the ultimate cultural juggernaut, not just an artist. She has influenced the sound of world music for decades and, through her vision, invention, and fearless artistry, reshaped culture itself.

This signing “creates a historic, full-circle moment,” reaffirms her unmatched influence, and opens the door to a new, exciting era of impact and creativity.

Madonna and Warner have a long history, with one of their imprints Sire Records forming her signature in 1982.

In addition to her self-titled 1983 debut, her self-titled 1983 debut and a number of international hits, like a virgin, which was released in 1984, and like a prayer, which reached the top of the charts in 1989, were the result of that agreement. In 1992, she collaborated with Time Warner to create her own label, Maverick. Her 25-year partnership with Warner came to an end in 2008 with the release of Hard Candy.

The Wanted’s Max George rushed to hospital again just days before tour starts

Max George, the Wanted singer and Strictly Come Dancing star, has revealed that he is back in the hospital just before he was scheduled to take the road with his bandmate.

Just before The Wanted 2.0 Tour began, Max George was back in the hospital.

Following numerous heart surgeries, Max George has recently returned to the hospital. The Wanted singer posted from a hospital bed just days before his tour was scheduled to end.

In December 2024, the 37-year-old underwent emergency surgery to remove a heart block. In the nine months since, the singer has been in and out of the hospital, and he even underwent a second operation after it was discovered that his pacemaker wires were inserted too deeply.

On Thursday (18 September), he posted a picture to Instagram from a hospital bed as he waited to be seen by doctors. Max didn’t seem to be too worried, as he captioned the post with a cheeky comment suggesting he expected to still embark on his worldwide tour.

Tin man needed a little oil before the tour, he wrote. Next stop… USA!!”! The Wanted 2.0, which only features Max and Siva Kaneswaran from the original band, have already wrapped up their UK tour. They will also be traveling in North America for the month.

Although Orlando, Florida is supposed to be their first stop, the band would not have to do this if the show is canceled. They canceled their Manchester Cathedral concert in February because Max needed his second operation. On Instagram, Max himself confirmed the news.

I’m just not going to be well enough in time because of my second heart operation, which has slightly slowed my recovery. Yes, the singer said, “Obviously, I’m so devastated.”

When we’re going to do it, Siva and I are just working out right now, according to the statement. Simply put, it’s up to us to pick a date for the near future.

He continued to express his shock when he saw the video, “Gutted to inform you that our gig in Manchester on February 27 has been postponed. I’m eager to feel better and be back on stage soon! “Many thanks for everything.”

Max has been open about recovering online. He revealed the details of his procedure in March, revealing that doctors had allowed him to listen to Oasis while the procedure was taking place and that he would need to make a lengthy recovery. He acknowledged that the heart-related inflammation might take months. The new operation could lead to a dangerous bleed, as Max has previously revealed to fans about his ears.

He added to the statement made on Sunday to The Sun, “I initially believed I was recovering, but when I was informed that I needed a second operation, I was concerned that the heart could leak from pulling the pacemaker wires out of the heart wall.” But I had no other options. It had to be completed by me.

But with the support of his bandmate, mum Barbara, and his girlfriend, Maisie Smith, whom he met on Strictly Come Dancing, Max was able to put his nerves at rest and have the procedure.

The singer appeared much calmer this time around. He only posts once to his main grid and twice to his stories, including a selfie of himself dressed up in his own clothes and a video of himself in his own clothes. He wrote, “Think I prefer the PJs…” over the selfie.

Katie Price reignites bitter feud with Princess with nasty remark about daughter’s NTAs dress

Princess Andre and Junior Andre’s mother, Princess Andre, and Junior Andre, both received criticism from Kate Price for their outfits at the National Television Awards.

Katie Price has seemingly reignited her feud with daughter Princess after making a sharp comment about her outfit. The model and TV star has given her true opinion on the outfits her children wore to the National Television Awards.

The teenagers usually walk the red carpet with one of their famous parents, but Peter Andre and Katie Price were not in attendance at the event and the pair walked the red carpet on their own.

While Princess wore a silver dress with red sequins, Junior wore a red velvet jacket and a silk shirt. However, Katie criticized their stylist and wasn’t very happy with the pair’s choices.

She did say to them, “You’ve got to sack the stylist,” she said in the most recent episode of her podcast. Junior made me feel sorry. What was he f***ing wearing, I asked Princess? It appeared to be fancy attire.

Look at Maura Higgins, she looked amazing! I said, “Princess, I didn’t like your dress either it was too old for you.” She remarked, “Well, can you dress me up next time?” I said, “I don’t know who is getting you involved with these stylists, they might style you for a photo shoot but not a red carpet… the outfits were just so wrong!”

After Katie admitted to missing her daughter’s 18th birthday party, the feud between the two has been well documented. Katie had previously stated in her podcast that “everyone knows she’s doing this documentary, and I’m not in it.” Some people don’t believe that being with me with Princess is beneficial. People used to care for me, but Princess said, “I’m having a party. And I wasn’t invited because the event was “filming.”

Because I’m his ex, Pete doesn’t want to be in the same room with me. I don’t agree with this, but we need some home truths when the kids get older and get married. Will he still have the same view that only one parent can live there? Later, Princess later denied a feud and claimed that her mother wouldn’t have arrived anyway because her father was present.

Later, Katie argued that not posting with her children meant she didn’t see them. One thing is clear: I don’t have to use social media. Can we take a picture to show people I’m round your house based on how frequently I visit Junior and go round his house to see him and Jasmine? I don’t do that, she said. No one needs to know that I am. I see her constantly, much like with Princess. I don’t have to take as many pictures as I would.

Strictly’s Thomas Skinner’s ‘one-off’ fling doubles down on claims as texts leaked

Amy-Lucy, who had a fling with married Thomas Skinner, has argued that his admission that it was “nothing more” than a one-time event is untrue.

Tom is scheduled to compete in the Strictly this year.

Amy-Lucy O’Rourke, Thomas Skinner’s “one-off” girlfriend, claims she disproves his claim that it was “nothing more” than a one-time thing by sharing a number of allegedly false texts between the two.

The Strictly Come Dancing star confessed he had cheated on his wife Sinead just weeks after they got married. The pair tied the knot in May 2022, four years after they met in a bar in London. The pair got engaged two years later and now share three children – a son who is now four and a set of twin daughters, who are now two.

Thomas claimed in an admission that it was his “biggest mistake of my life” and that he felt “absolutely terrible” about it. He claimed the two-week fling was intentional.

“Two and a half years ago,” the statement read. It is my life’s biggest mistake. In a pub, I met her. She was raising her own. She gave me some cosmetic slimming treatments during our phone conversation. I had a flirt. He continued, “It was nothing more than that.”

“It was the one mistake,” he said. I had such terrible feelings when I woke up. I told my wife, “I felt so bad.” In that brief moment of madness, I let her down and didn’t appreciate what I had. I apologize. I’m so, so sorry”.

Contrary to Thomas’ claims, Amy-Lucy has now claimed that the pair dated for three months. She claims that the pair first contacted each other on May 13 and that it remained so until July 7 when they contacted each other. She claimed that they met up in the evening and that they had a conversation on Facebook on June 20 when Thomas and the couple tied the knot.

Thomas, who has three children with his wife Sinead, informed Amy-Lucy that he felt pressured to marry his wife because of her family and that he was in a “loveless relationship of convenience.”

“We were messaging one another all of the time. There were also late night calls and often he would be with me,” she told the Mail Online. Amy-Lucy also claims that by July, the pair’s messages grew explicit and they told each other how they were in love.

Amy-Lucy claimed that Tom would become envious of rumors that she and another man were dating. She claimed that despite telling him that she was interested in him, she had assured him that she was the only one who was interested.

The Mirror has contacted Thomas’ representative for comment.
