    Madonna launching video on billboards, online

    LOS ANGELES (AP) — Clear Channel is giving Madonna all its luvin'.

    The radio giant announced plans Friday to premiere the 53-year-old pop star's new single "Give Me All Your Luvin'" and its music video across Clear Channel radio stations, electronic billboards and online venues. Clear Channel, which owns 850 stations nationwide, estimated the promotional campaign would reach more than 150 million people around the world.

    Beginning on Friday morning, "Give Me All Your Luvin'" is scheduled to premiere simultaneously across 95 radio stations and on more than 1,600 digital billboards in the United States, France, Spain, Sweden, Norway, Singapore, Belgium, Finland and the United Kingdom, as well as on demand at iHeartRadio.com, Clear Channel's customized online radio service.

    "This first-of-its-kind multimedia premiere with Madonna demonstrates the unequalled scope and strength of the entire Clear Channel platform — a range and depth that enables us to work with the most talented and creative artists in the world to develop truly groundbreaking promotional opportunities," said Bob Pittman, CEO of Clear Channel, in a statement.

    The Material Girl push is the latest multimedia endeavor from Clear Channel, which organized a two-day concert in Las Vegas last year that featured the likes of Jay-Z and Lady Gaga and announced last month that it was taking a minority stake in the production company of "American Idol" host Ryan Seacrest, who produces E!'s "Keeping Up with the Kardashians."

    Madonna is expected to perform "Give Me All Your Luvin'" and three other tunes at her Super Bowl halftime performance Sunday in Indianapolis. Her new album "MDNA" is set to be released in March.

      Hey pips!
      We are all on a verge of big performace by 53-year-old Ciccone during small, insignificant and quite boring event called super bowl (moments)!
      You gotta so totally brace yourself!...

        Alex, are watching the same football game? Seriously, boring???? Hardly.

      Her coffee table book is pictures of men's fuzzy balls and their stinky pootie holes.

      this is great since she has endured a Clear Channel ban since 2004. Now the playing field has been leveled and her airplay will come close to matching her sales.

      Wouldn't it be funny if she blew Lady Gaga right out of the water?

      Not a huge Madonna fan but, all these people act like there are other good artist out there. I am just glad they did not hire one of these new "rap crap" bands to play the bowl. I much rather listen to "like a virgin" then hear more of the "rap crap". In my day they said rock and roll confused the young kids, well at least when I was young the white kids and knew they were white kids, mexican kids knew they were mexican and etc, now thanks to all this rap garbage they all think they are black. Idiots.

      Madonna bashed Lady Gaga for "copying" her. Uh, there was a song, back in the day, that went, "Give me all your luvin', all your hugs and kisses too".

        ZZTop rocks...
      • Yorks 3 mths ago
        and Madonna couldn't come up with a power song to rock the half-time so she, who is a finger pointer, is also trying to redo ZZ Tops' song ;will she be handing over some "resids" to the originators?ZZ Tops rocks,while Madonna wishes she could.
    • JT  •  3 mths ago
      Why her? maybe because she's the most important and celebrated female performer of the last three decades? One who's pushed nearly every gender, racial, religious, sexual and social boundary in her music, stage shows and videos. Reason enough right there. :)
    • Cookie  •  Poughkeepsie, New York  •  3 mths ago
      Time to hang it up Madonna. Your old and you think your s-----doesn't stink. I'm afraid we are in for a dissapointment for another half time show.
      • Sportsman 3 mths ago
        Or not. Everyone I know is excited to see her haltime show performance - which promises to be the highlight of the game.
      • Big Yarn snob 3 mths ago
        The HIGHLIGHT of the game? OMG...get to your nearest ophthalmologist as quickly as you can. You obviously are not a sportsman (more likely a 'swordsman').
      • Sportsman 3 mths ago
        Very classy response, BYS. Perhaps I'm not as simpleminded as you. Many football fans out there, myself included, are capable of enjoying the sport AND watching Madonna perform. Take your haterade elsewhere.
    • Sportsman  •  3 mths ago
      Just saw Madonna's new video and it IS fantastic! She's still got it and has more talent than most 20-something pop stars out there. We are incredibly lucky to have her performing at the halftime show - not one artist alive can come close to matching her superb creativity AND talent when it comes to live performances. When Madonna puts on a show, time stands still. She's not the Queen of Pop for nothing (backed up by being a world record holder for concert ticket sales and music sales, a vast music catalog of chart-topping hits over 4 decades, and the recipient of every major music/film award out there). Also, to all the haters out there jealous of her talent and beauty, she has aged better than most people who are 53 years old - and she's incredibly fit.

        Lourdes?....Is that you? Shouldn't you be out getting your unibrow waxed?
      • Big Yarn snob 3 mths ago
        Too bad you don't understand football and want to watch that over-the-hill hag. I imagine many toilets will be flushing during her performance.
    • James  •  Burbank, California  •  3 mths ago
      Katy Perry blows her away....Madonna is too old to be cute....She's like the creepy old guy in the club....
    • Sally  •  Atlanta, Georgia  •  3 mths ago
      Madonna is as relevant as Paula Abdul. There comes a time to quit. Take your bucks and run with the next too young stud.

      Please answer your AARP mail.
    • Nichael  •  Riverview, Florida  •  3 mths ago
      All the comments about Madonnas age. She looks a billion times better than most OBESE 20 something American girls the fattest girls on the planet.
    • trinity  •  Tampa, Florida  •  3 mths ago
      How many car accidents will this cause? All we need is another distraction by a mediocre talent. Her only currency is shock value and sleeping with the press.
    • Walter  •  3 mths ago
      ...Madonna, please keep your clothes...and your makeup on....thank you.
    • Ted S  •  Jacksonville, Florida  •  3 mths ago
      This woman is so old she used billboards to promote her music !!!!! Whats a billboard? join this century !!! The only celebrity woman we know that we wouldn't have sex with. Who hasn't slept with this hag.
    • Slowride  •  3 mths ago
      Madonna is a nasty old hag. She will come out to perform in her Bra and Depends.
    • Truth not Insult  •  3 mths ago
      Madonna has not been relevant in at least 20 years. (and in my case never) Does yahoo get money for hyping the Super Bowl side show that NOBODY cares about?
