Madonnna nominated for Hall of Fame


Twenty-five years into her official musical career, Madonna has been nominated for induction in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Acts qualify for induction 25 years after the release of their first record. Madonna released her first single, "Everybody," in 1982. Although not a major hit, it did well at the clubs, and was followed a year later by her first top 40 hit, "Holiday."
Other nominees this year include John Mellencamp, the Beastie Boys, Donna Summer, and Chic. Last year's inductees included R.E.M., Van Halen, and Patti Smith. The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and Museum is located in Cleveland, Ohio right on the lake. It's pretty cool, if you've never been.
