Madonna's new music video features a who's who of celebrities. "Bitch I'm Madonna" has just premiered all over the Internet. The video features Beyonce, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, Kanye West, Nicki Minaj, Chris Rock and more. The 56-year-old singer dances throughout a colorful home in the roughly four-minute video. (see video) Some believe the video is in response to Taylor Swift's "Bad Blood" video, which also features a number of A-list stars. The videos are much different, though. While the stars in Swift's video spend a lot of time on screen, you have to look closely to spot some of the quick shots of the many celebrities in Madonna's video. "Bitch I'm Madonna" is song #6 on her latest album "Rebel Heart." Madonna will be in Detroit at Joe Louis Arena on Thursday, Oct. 1. Tickets are still available.

We’re only midway through 2015 but it’s seems safe to declare this the year of Amy Schumer. She’s already hosted the MTV awards; the third season of Inside Amy Schumer has been sharper and funnier than ever; her movie Trainwreck will debut on July 17; and she’s even won a Peabody. What else is left? Opening for Madonna, of course. Schumer tells EW that she’s a lifelong “huge, crazy” Madonna fan (the video she tweeted out—see below—of a young Amy Schumer singing ‘Like a Prayer’ backs this up). “I murdered all her albums,” she says. “It was the craziest thing. Chris Rock called me a couple of months ago and was like, ‘Madonna wants your phone number.’ I’m like, I can’t believe you have my phone number!” Before she knew it, her Madgesty asked if she’d open for her in New York this September. “My answer was of course,” Schumer says. “There is no one in the world I’d want to open for more. I was just jumping up and down and called all my girlfriends from high school.” And while she may be a little nervous—”These shows could be really rough for me because they’re waiting for Madonna and then I’m out there telling jokes”—she knows there’s one happy benefit to this gig. “I’m just excited to be close up to the stage and scream sing her songs.”

"B**** I'm Madonna" extends her record for most No. 1s on a single chart. Madonna's back at No. 1 on the Dance Club Songs chart, as her latest single, "B**** I'm Madonna" rises 2-1 on the chart dated Aug. 15. It's the diva's 46th No. 1 on this chart, and extends her own record for the most No. 1s on a singular Billboard chart. (She broke the record in May, when she surpassed George Strait's 44 leaders on the Hot Country Songs chart.) The new Aug. 15-dated Dance Club Songs chart -- which measures reports submitted by a national sample of club DJs -- will post to Billboard's websites on Aug. 4. "B**** I'm Madonna," featuring Nicki Minaj, is the third single from Madonna's Rebel Heart album. The set debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart, marking her 21st top 10 effort. For Minaj, "Madonna" is her fifth No. 1. She also hit the top with "Turn Me On" (David Guetta featuring Minaj), "Give Me All Your Luvin'" (Madonna featuring Minaj & M.I.A.), "Pound the Alarm" and "Beauty and a Beat" (Justin Bieber featuring Minaj).

Madonna is currently on the first leg of her Rebel Heart World Tour and the reviews have been coming in thick and fast. The tour is Madonna’s first since 2012’s MDNA tour and so far the tour has been a huge hit with the critics and fans. The setlist is a mixture of songs from the Queen of Pop’s Rebel Heart album and classics from her extensive back catalogue. The Hollywood Reporter said the tour is ‘A two-hour spectacle of new sounds and refreshed throwbacks that left even the most repeated ticketholder of the singer surprised and fulfilled’ whilst VH1 said, ‘The nearly two-hour show was a larger-than-life display of cutting-edge pop showmanship, filled to the brim with zesty costumes, intricate choreography, and a militant, rigid precision that felt other-worldly’ The show’s opening night in Montreal was equally well received with Montreal Gazette saying, ‘Consisting of four loosely thematic sections broken up by costume changes, with almost every song benefiting from its own tailor-made staging and with a small army of dancers gracefully executing intense choreography, the show hit all the marks.’ Madonna brings the Rebel Heart tour to the UK in December when she will play dates in London, Manchester, Glasgow and Birmingham in the run up to Christmas.
