I may get hate for this which is fine because it doesn't bother me BUT here we go. 1st I have been a Madonna fan since her 1st single "Everybody" in 1982 & I have been to 10 of her 11 Tours, The only tour I missed was her The Virgin Tour 1985 other than that I've been to WTGT 1987, BAM 1990, TGS 1993, DWT 2001, RIT 2003, Confessions 2006, S&S 2008, MDNA 2012, RHT 2015, MXT 2019 & I have a huge Madonna collection (I should I've been collecting her stuff for over 36 years) & I have every CD (Regular Version, Deluxe Version & The Super Deluxe Versions) & almost CD Single Almost every CD Single Remix , I still have many of her 45 Records & Cassette Singles so with that said I don't know what happened to Madonna. She used to be so unique & different & it seems like when she did Madame X & got the plastic surgery she doesn't even seem or act the same. She comes across so desperate now, Madonna used to be the person ahead of the music & the visuals in her Video's & Tours but not anymore & I NEVER thought I'd be the person saying this about her. I have idolized her for her entire career & I used to think "Damn she is a badass bitch) but watching this & other things she's posted since Madame X she is so weird & bizarre now. Ever since the plastic surgery her mouth moves different & she talks weird & also her attitude towards her fans has sucked. When I saw The Madame X Tour in Brooklyn NY on Sept, 2019 She was over 2 hours late & then told everyone if "We didn't like it we could go Fuc^ ourselves" Also she was just out & out mean & nasty to us the fans at her show & I think they "Madonna" forgets that we made her who she is today & we gave her career the life it has. Almost all the 80's singers faded away but not her because we are buying her music & watching her video's & spending our hard earned money at her concerts & on merchandise. I ALONG with almost everyone at The MXT 2019 were so turned off by her nasty attitude & that she was over 2 hours late & she truly could have cared less which is sad & her tickets to The MXT weren't cheap because it was in small Venues & the Madame X Tour merchandise was so expensive, With the cost of the concert on top of anything to even drink (Soda, Water not Alcohol) & parking it was a really expensive night without any tour merchandise. A Tour t-shirt started at $60 In all 10 tours I've never seen her prices that high & everyone was complaining about the prices. People were so annoyed & over it people were actually leaving in groups during her MXT 2019 show. I have never seen anything like it. With the amount of money I spent I wasn't leaving but many others didn't care & they were gone. I just wish she would start acting like the cool badass bitch she always has been & not some sideshow clown who is acting & looking like 1 of those washed up singers you see. Also why has it taken her so long to release Madame X??? Maybe it's all the weed she's smoking because she's always been so focused when she's putting out an Album, Video or a Tour & all her video's makes it seem like she just doesn't seem to care anymore. She's so talented & I just wish she would bring back that ever changing really cool diva we all love.
She's been there and done that. She's just enjoying herself and her life. She's got nothing to prove these days. If she's being a bitch it's because she's just being sarcastic and ironic like she's always been. Especially in these PC days we are living in. She's all about pushing the limits of what to say and what we can't say.
@romcomfan oh but I’m 1 of the biggest Madonna fans out there. I’ve been to every concert, I have her autograph among hundreds of collectable so yeah I would say I am a huge madonna fan
@@armandoucles5346 she wasn’t being sarcastic or ironic when she was out and out really making fun of people to the fact that the people in the audience were actually gasping she was just being rude and nasty out of the 10 McDonough Torres a penny to I have never seen her treat her fiance. Did you see the Madame X tour? After seeing my show I heard this from many other fans had seen her previous shows so just curious if you are even there.
There are many sides to this very complex woman. Perhaps this persona is just one of them. When she’s in front of the camera she’s being Madonna. It must be very tiring to be her when everyone around you expects so much. Does she always get it right? No she doesn’t. But don’t you think that makes her more human? When it comes to the cost of concerts and merchandise etc, I’ve got nothing to compare it to. So I can’t really comment. The only big concerts I’ve ever been to were to see Prince. And he famously kept his prices reasonable. I commented earlier in this thread that she’s growing old disgracefully. And I absolutely love it. It’s what I expected of her. And to be honest I’m surprised that so many people are shocked. Being two hours late for her own concert and then insulting her fans. Maybe it’s all part of the act. Or maybe you should just accept that she’s always been kind of up her own backside. She definitely knows it and has always being unapologetic for it. There’s a great poem called when I’m old I shall wear purple. You should check it out.
@@faireydust72 I assume she is on some kind of opiods, mind-altering painkillers. I guess she had to take some because of her injury the last year or so. She mentioned recently on the Jimmy Fallon that she likes opiates. She already had a slurred speech in that interview. You can see in this that her reflexes and her speech is weirdly slowed down - probably also because of the surgery too. She's overdone. Opiates make you not caring about anything.
Madonna, Wow, She is fearless, shes'got about the strenght of 10 tigers inside of her. Take a look at her Body of work, Albums, Music Videos and the huge amount of live performances. Madonna already put in at least two lifetimes of work already, The strenght required to do what she has done is staggering. Look at her dancing and singing at the same time, Wow what a dancer and singer and performer, Phenomenal.
I agree with almost everything you say. But when it comes to singing, mmmmm. I think we are so used to hearing her voice that we just accept it. I don’t believe there’s anything pleasing about her singing voice. There are some great songs. But like a couple of other artists I could mention. If you strip everything away. Mmmm. Not great. Having said that her tenacity and vision and sometimes the great songwriting kind of make up for the average singing voice.
@@turnedaround4954 they're not Madonna. Probably the one who doesn't do it right wouldn't be alive or healthy the day after. Period. Being rich is not everything. Its who you are with such money.
@@MissPerriwinkle girl aren't u too young to be envious? Wow. Jealousy from you? How old r u? of course not dear... Donatella kkkk she's like one of these things you buy in Africa to decorate your house in Halloween and haunt people with it when they come by. Madonna's case is pure cutting edge science. She's fucking smart. It's NOT only about money. She knows stuff!
You must be gay, not so graceful apparently and besides that you're not ok with yourself, whether hanging out or trolling but always with that bitter, unresolved mood, right? and you like dissing things u cant reach in order to make u feel better about yourself? Because this is what internet always helped you with? Am I right again? *I GUESS I NAILED IT NOW 😉* edit: Mwah
Just think about all the people her age that have given everything up a long time ago. She's not chasing youth, she's chasing life! She's still creatively active and engaged, still looking to experience and expand as an artist. It's inspiring. A true artist never stops evolving. I talk to my friends often about all the older people around us that just decided to stop engaging with life. People I know pack it in, in their thirties, and then there are those few that live life thoroughly. Madonna has been the same her whole life: A woman packed with enough energy to shift masses.
@@Blonde_Somnambulist She has always been a freak, her cultural impact was so strong people look at her as normal through today's lens lol She's a genuine eccentric and always has been. And she has never made apologies about it. Her time in a punk band in the early years really influenced her attitude I think.
You said it, chasing life ... Thank you for your clever input. It happens that most people what they do is chasing the opposite of life, easy criticism, envy and frustration. SHE IS CHASING LIFE, that's why it's so difficult to reach her ...
I get the feeling she’s doing all the things that you would normally do while you’re young. Of course when she was young she was far to busy building her career. I kind of admire her for that. She should grow old as disgracefully as she likes. It’s the one thing she’s earned the right to do.
You said... "There is a poor slowness about her that belies the young performance." Maybe it's because being an icon who hasn't stopped working to reinforce your status for 40 years must be exhausting. Not to mention the injuries that come with being the queen of world tours. What surprises her fans is that Madonna has been able to survive all the scenes depicted.
The funny thing is that it is young people who judge the most, instead of having as open a mind as it would be at that age. You really don't have more productive and fun things than judging stupid things? They should at least know that Madonna has gotten where she is by not having time to judge, and investing everything in working hard on her creativity. That is why they criticize it, because they do not have the ability to see beyond an image, They are sad.
“A little bit late, which doesn’t happen very often”! LMAO 🤣 Her ironic stone-serious sense of humor ❤️ and at least she looks fabulous even if she doesn’t sound like Madonna anymore! Love love love Vincent Van Gogh, Édith Piaf, and la lingua di Dante (as well as la langue de Molière, but let’s face it, the Italians are nicer people than the French on the whole even though the French have better food and wine!)! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
The implants I believe are causing her health to decline-they can cause systemic inflammation-joint pain,fatigue and eventually autoimmune dysfunction-please try to get the message to her-I warn about this in her Instagram but your style of writing may be able to catch her eye-please try to warn her.
@James Franklin My problem is that I don't like this weird typewriter/gramophone/weed episode. As I clearly stated. As an individual I can like or dislike Madonna's phases. This one is getting old. So fuck the fuck off, you fucking oddball Matthew Robinson.
I can't handle artificial edits, I'm not interested in seeing the editing work that we ourselves can do with increasingly developed applications. What interests me is to see her work, as in her first tours, you saw a live show, so clean, that it was almost like being there.
She had the right philosophy. It is her belief system which is represented in her literature and visual works. Madonna’s make over are internal and her image is a mere attempt to dramatize those changes.
Madonna’s trying to make this seem like a random unexpected vid. When, in fact, she spent hours ordering exact angled lighting and cameras. ‘Do this’ Brighten the lights’ Move the camera over there’
This is not the madonna i know since 80s. She is always around all this junkies taking advantage of her ($$$$$$) Look under the influence all the time. Her bf and his people all are very negative for her. I know she is not a kid but she is very vulnerable.
@@88rrodriguez i don’t have to elaborate, real Madonna fans from the 80s like know what I’m talking about. You don’t know cause you are too young and you don’t even born when Madonna career start it.
Its sad,,,She is so seperate to stay relevant. I always thought she would have aged like Dietrich, Garbo or Audrey and Katherine Hepburn. I thinks she has some kind of body dysmorphia,
She's trying to stay young and beautiful. It's not necessary. She has always been beautiful and after Ray of Light it looked like she embraced getting older. I just miss her as I can't see her anymore.
Out of complete ignorance, I think it could be a succession of "stranger things", the pandemic, the injuries he suffered, then the autobiographical film... It could appear at any time, but she is not one to look back on, especially with a style as differentiated as Madame X. We already know how fast she is turning the page... 😺
@@MadonnandRakeLa yeah, but Warner literally released the movie Soundtrack this year.... Why don't do a DVD/BluRay - CD Combo... I mean why was it Only released on paramount plus? I know she abandones orld Projects, she is an Artist, but come on, it's almost as Bad as the MJ or Bowie estate with releasing projects...!
She definitely does not look like your typical 62 years old post menopausal woman ! The most difficult is : how do you stay humble and become wise and egoless when you have been loved and admired by millions of people all over the world. It takes courage and strength to accept the reality of ageing .for people like Madonna. It’s a super strong battle with the ego. On top of this , as talented as Madonna is ( and has been for many decades) new voices, new talent, new stars have emerged and my feeling is that the competition must be so different than what she experienced early in her career.
She's a Woman, She's Old, She's Crazy, She has botox, She can't sing, She doesn't play the instruments....The haters will always find anything to dismiss her instead of focus on the genius she is and that's because they don't feel comfortable with anyone who still stands exactly because she was the first woman to be different from others in the music industry by free expressing her points of views and personality without caring for approval of others, the first to stay "old" and still want to work and create art, that's why she is always paying a price, because she is PIONEER, INOVATIVE, UNIQUE, FIGHT LABELS, PUSH BUTTONS. For a man to be like that was always normal on the music industry but she is a woman, she should be quiet on her place and not to be interventive and express her opinions and above all never, never try to be on a place that was always and only reserved for men and objectifying men like they did objectifying woman on their music videos since then, how dare you Madonna? Men always liked to be on command and that's why they are afraid of her...That's the reason why she is a LIVING LEGEND, A MYTH, AN ICON, THE ONLY LIVING SUPERSTAR WHICH STILL REMAINS, and was named the QUEEN (of pop). Come on guys give her a break and let her continue her artistic and genius career while she is still alive, one day when she won't be with us people will notice her importance in History, but I guess it is always like that, you must lost someone important to know his real VALUE. That's why I'm always thinking how fortunate we are to have the privilege every single day to have her still among with us while she is ALIVE AND KICKING. For me Madonna is the definition of WOMAN and will always be until I die. Sometimes I think as a Madonna huge fan she really don't have the best voice in the world comparing with other singers nor is the best dancer nor is the best this or the best that and for me this is even more the reason why she is my favourite artist of all time, because with all this "limitations" she remains above other great artists on a timeline because she has PERSONALITY, CHARISMA, STYLE, INTELEGENCY and applies that on her artistic path and surpasses herself constantly, from others we can only say: "ok great voice this artist have, this singer is so pretty and sexy,..." we only appreciate them by their technical and physical skills, but with Madonna is different we appreciate her by some of this same skills but as WHOLE, as a PERSONALITY. Everytime she bring us a new record or concert she impregnate her unique strong sincere personality on it remaining coherent with her beliefs and convictions and that's why I think people still follow and respect her. She's BEATIFUL on her own way and I am not only speaking physically which she was of course more when she was younger but she is even more beautiful as time goes by because beauty is not only what you see outside but what you perception the others give you from inside and on this Madonna is the most beatiful person in the world and History because she is such a beatiful soul and human being inside. For any reason singers like Whitney, Mariah, Janet, Britney, Beyonce, Rihanna that stood for her great voices or style/beauty comparing to Madonna never accomplished what Madonna is and done (and I'm not saying I don't like those artists) because she has that "It" factor, a "je ne sais quoi", a MAGIC MYSTERY that no one can explain but that's why she is a MYTHICAL (LIVING) LEGEND in HISTORY. Many things have been said about this woman in the past and will always continue in the present and future because we want to explain and guess who is this person and woman/human being which is always defying us. She is LOVED and HATED, but the geniuses and myths were always like that, loved for some and hated by others, the true ARTISTS AND GENIUSES were always like that originating debate because they were DIFFERENT. Today to dismiss Madonna is kind of trendy but Madonna is ETERNAL like all LEGENDS are so as time goes by and as fashions move on she will stay UNTOUCHABLE and IMMORTAL as one of the most SINGULAR human beings that come to this planet and universe. Madonna is a mix of unique physical and personal beauty that combined together made the person who she is until today: A GODDESS among GODS. THANK YOU Madonna for CHANGING MY LIFE.
She hasnt been innovative since Confessions.She's become progressively more desperate with each album and she looks like that Cat Lady that had too many surgeries and shes frumpy with those butt implants.Her Pride performance last night was just sad.
@@michaelarana3490 And so what? Her LEGEND STATUS is untouchable. Michael Jackson was also a weirdo with all that surgeries he had looking like an alien and his prostatic noses and his last albums also flopped and all this were not reasons for him not to be in the history of music, the same with Madonna. All legends and artists have their decadent phase when they get old ir do you think they drink the potion from the fountain of eternal youth? 😉
I am also crazy about Madonna 80s, but it would be very interesting to understand that it is the same person no matter how chameleon she is. The very essence, someone who has overwhelmed our imagination, style is sometimes the least of it, it is an excuse to continue playing her game, our game. I'm glad to continue being a fan of her, it means neither more nor less that she is still ALIVE, and we are with her. We have survived alongside his music and, in many cases, thanks to his music. Isn't it really exciting? Kisses from Spain. Rachel
Oh Madame x was a genius work of art as far as a musician can appreciate. but the theater thing plus coronavirus didn't help it that much. This exclusive isolated touring wasn't a perfect choice. I guess she just wanted to be some steps ahead of the future closure we were about to get in(Madonna knows stuff). But yet it was not a good choice.
RAQUEL BERMÚDEZ LaRakeLa at least it’s tiny. She didn’t need one, like Bieber and Gaga needed to ink themselves to buy some sort of legitimacy in their claim to be bad ass.
Madonna is showing her age because her words sound tired as they come out of her mouth - it is obvious her energy levels are the age she’s trying to hide under fillers and face lifts… sometimes artists cling to the past by refusing to see the beauty of changing into something different altogether simply because the past is impossible to match - her peak as a performing pop artist is way in the past and that’s the obvious truth that she can’t live with --
