One of the few artists of the 80s who did not disappear into the sunset when the date flipped over to Jan 1st 1990. She was just as big in the 1990s and beyond. THis lady really knew how to reinvent herself to appeal the youth of the times even when she grew older. She was a very controversial person throughout her life, but by all accounts everyone who met her liked her. She had a really nice friendly personality.
***** Beyonce is a big star, more talented, prettier argueably (Madonna of 1983-93, beautiful)... but Madonna was there first, more controversial, done more for society than Beyonce for lgbt, race, women, ageism rights. More impact.
She certainly didn't become yesterday's news... love her today as much as I did when I first discovered her in 1991 (yes, I wish I knew her better back in 85 but was too young). Must have been sooooo cool.
Legend?? :-) "Todays obsession could become yesterdays news..." haha Great news report! And here she is nearly 30 years later with MDNA, still topping the charts around the world! Nearly 80 singles! Between 300 and 400 million albums sold! Countless tours. What an amazing career! Hard working Girl! Icon! Love her!
The critic predicted it right at 2:30, and while she might not have had a major pop radio hit since "Hung Up" in 2005.. she's just as relevant and as talented now as she was back then. Plus just as beautiful (that's another thing, she's redefined what it means to be a woman at her age now).
+M a d o n n a Meanwhile, Ghosttown, Living for love and Bitch, I'm Madonna all hit #1 on BB's Dance Charts making her the ONLY artist, solo, group or band, to have the MOST #1's on a singular BB chart and the MOST #1's overall on the BB charts and that doesn't even include her success, WORLDWIDE.............
True she's had lots of hits since then (I've even heard Ghosttown on the radio), I guess "Hung Up" is the last one that almost everybody (i mean like who aren't even fans) would recognize.
Madonna regined as the Queen Of Pop from 1983-2024 and she is now 65 doing her Celebration World Tour and everyone loved and wanted to be Madonna and she was huge and she was even bigger in 1990s and 2000. Madonna was the only artist who worked hard and made a name for herself. I saw her in Concert in 1990 The Blond Ambition World Tour and it was amazing she put on quite a show and causing a stir. Everyone wanted to be Madonna and Madonna was just as big then. She looked good in the 80s 90s 2000 and now its 2024 and Her Like A Virgin Album is 40 yrs old now. **** She is 65 and she still has it.
For sure. And what impress me is the fact she's over 50 years old and her dance movements/ performances are getting better and better. If you take a look at IMPRESSIVE INSTANT, GIRL GONE WILD, CELEBRATION... you see how modern and fresh Madonna is. I fucking love her. Of course no one lives forever... but her legacy and iconic mark in the industry music will be forever... just like ELVIS, ABBA, BEATLES, MICHAEL...
they said, "she's a flash in the pan" or "she'll be gone in a year"................boy, were those critics wrong....still going strong today with her 12th studio album comin' 2012.....hail the queen.........madonna, you are awsome !!!!
So true Madonna...YOU ARE EVERYTHING...and agree with that guy...most importantly: she's smart...and have ambition. A woman with balls. MADONNA: GREATEST FEMALE ARTIST OF THE UNIVERSE.
"They say today's obsession could become yesterday's news." lol, I hope whoever said that felt very ashamed of themselves and their powers of prediction!
Madonna is not the only The greatest female artist of the universe she THE BEST ARTIST OF THE UNIVERSE along with Michael Jackson OFCORSE !!! Those 2 r LEGENDS, EPIC ICONS OF THE PLANET ! There never was anone like Madonna before , there's no one like that now and I don't think there will ever be at least not anytime soon a performer and artist like QUEEN MADONNA ! We fans should freakin enjoy madonnas time on his planet she the only living legend left ! U never know what will happen ...like MJ
le look de madonna a persistait pendant pas mal de temps je me souviens que tout mon entourage s'habillait comme ça et le look est revisitait encore aujourd'hui c'est un look unique qu'on retrouvera toujours c'est ça d'etre une icône de mode
millions of people HATE flopga, that's why she's a huge FLOP now. say, do, think whatever the hell makes you happy, but EVERYONE knows MADONNA is the GREATEST FEMALE POP ICON, EVER!! you keep bringing up her documentary, i loved it so much too. weren't you just blown away by it. please show it to flopga and demand she learns how it's done, if she hasn't already watched it hundreds of times over, like you have... lmao!
The news media has always been so shady! Even back then, madonna was a no talent,, Madonna could not sing, and Madonna could not go much further in the business…… They said it all and none of it was true.
Don't want to rub it in but it was fun. MTV/VH-1 was playing music videos 24 hours, T.V. shows like "The Cosby Show", "Cheers", "The Benny Hill Show", "The Golden Girls", "Dynasty" & "Moonlighting" were the best on T.V., cable television at it rawest form, awesome movies were coming out, CNN was a real t.v. news network, "Live Aid" greatest concert and you didn't need to attend, you can watch the whole live on T.V. & of course all types of music blasting through the airwaves. Almost everything was perfect, we couldn't think things couldn't get any better but the 90's prove that it did get better. From 1982 to October 2000, it was a great 18 years of living on God's green earth.
noemistephanie93 gen x was born at least between 1957-1975. if you were born in the 60s and 70s, you are definitely gen x. those who were born between 1976-1994 are the millennials so you're a millennial. those who were born in the 80s & 90s are definitely millennials. those who were born between 1995-2009 are generation z though there are those who were born from 1995 to 1999 who consider themselves millennials.
Gagadonna is expected to sell less 240K Madonna's MDNA sold 359Kn 1st week sales I knew gaga fans were kind of stupid music-wise but it turns out little monsters can't do math either LOL
Joe Banks not sure if you noticed but for an artist on her 3rd album the decrease is EPIC, Madonna keot her album sales steadily increasing..gagadonna in the other hand is decreasing
Joe S you do realize the fame monster didn't sell 25 Million right? you're coating the numbers of "the fame" TWICE. the Fame monster only sold like 3 million copies.
Joe S Furthermore Madonna was "re-leased in the UK not worldwide, AND it didn't contain any new recording material. so exactly why should it be "discount" because then it makes your theory appear credible? it still is not. and 6 Million in 1992 was not flopping considering A) it was a risqué album that came with risqué releases, Gaga was doing the opposite, she played it SAFE and it still FLOPPED
lol.. she makes headlines almost every day, 1.8 Million copies of Applause sold, new single Do What You Want was #1 in 70+ countries, meanwhile Madonna with her Secret Project no one gives two fucks about. ha.
