Madonna to headline MTV awards
Madonna will give the first global live television performance from her new album tonight when she appears at the MTV Europe Music Awards, a key showcase for the music industry outside the United States.
The 47-year-old American superstar will sing “Hung Up,” the first single from her disco-inspired “Confessions On A Dance Floor,” which she hopes will reverse a recent slump in form when it hits stores on November 14 after weeks of media buildup.
Joining Madonna on stage in Lisbon will be British acts Coldplay, whose 2005 album “X&Y” stormed the charts, and
Robbie Williams, who has recently released “Intensive Care.”
