Madonna’s ‘Rebel Heart’ Album: Even More Demos Have Leaked Now For Songs Previously Unheard

By: Robbie Daw / February 17, 2015
It’s hard to pinpoint just how many songs have leaked from Madonna‘s Rebel Heart project since November — an album that, mind you, isn’t even officially released until March 10 — but know this: More tracks are still popping up online left and right.
The leaks began around Thanksgiving, when rough demos for “Rebel Heart” and “Wash All Over Me” surfaced on the Internet. That was followed in December by two separate leaks of a combined two dozen songs ahead of Christmas, which prompted Madonna’s team to offer up six finished Rebel Heart songs (including single “Living For Love”) on iTunes as part of an album pre-order.
A culprit in the breach of Madge’s music was apprehended by authorities early in the new year, but even still, early February brought the leaking of the entire finished deluxe edition (25 tracks) of Rebel Heart, five weeks ahead of the album’s official release date. One might assume that would be the end of Madonna’s woes, but, no — nearly a handful of demos made their way online overnight for songs that do not appear to have made the cut for Rebel Heart.
Unfinished versions of songs like the playful sports metaphor “Score,” slightly housey “Never Let You Go,” guitar-and-dance-beat-driven “Alone With You” and funky synth groove “Trust No Bitch” are now out there to be found. Not to worry —Rebel Heart is really fine as is, without these added in, though “Never Let You Go” is a particular highlight from this batch.
At any rate, these four songs should prove to be mild curiosities for diehard Madonna fans, at least until Rebel Heart finally arrives in proper form…or until the next round of leaks make their way to your computer.

On July 10 1985, The Playboy magazine issue of nude Madonna photos was released !!

Playboy  publishes nude photos of  Madonna  taken before she was famous. The singer did a number of nude photo shoots from 1977-1980, starting when she was an 18-year-old student at the University of Michigan looking for some extra cash and trying to form a band. Now a huge star,  Playboy  publishes some of the shots taken in 1979 and 1980 in a revealing spread. A year earlier, the magazine turned down nude photos of Miss America winner  Vanessa Williams , which their rival  Penthouse  published. "We think Vanessa genuinely didn't know what she was doing, didn't know her photos might be published," the article states. "Madonna, on the other hand, posed repeatedly for two noted photographers who routinely publish what they shoot." One of the photographers, Lee Friedlander, says of the shoot: "She seemed very confident, a street-wise girl." Madonna has little to say on the matter, but doesn't shy away. "I'm not ashamed,&q
