MADONNA - MADONNA ASKS IGGY TO VOGUE FOR HER

MADONNA has reportedly asked fellow Michigan maverick IGGY POP and his reformed THE STOOGES to perform for her at the Rock + Roll Hall Of Fame induction ceremony next week (10Mar08). Justin Timberlake will introduce the Material Girl at the New York City ceremony and Pop has agreed to perform punked up versions of her hits as a tribute. The punk icon and Madonna, who both hail from Detroit, became firm friends when Pop opened for the pop superstar at the Dublin, Ireland date of her Reinvention Tour in 2004. Meanwhile, Damien Rice and Patti LaBelle will perform musical tributes to Leonard Cohen and songwriters Gamble + Huff at the induction ceremony.
