Samo Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Was Madonna the first female pop star to use a wind machine during her performance? I know the wind machine has now become synonomous with Beyonce Its also funny how she used the wind machine for that ONE performance, but then ditched it for all of her other TV performances since then Not to mention never using it on her subsequent 5 world tours.

Apples388 Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 She used a wind machine on Reinvention (military segment, "Burning Up" and "Material Girl"). And no, obviously she wasn't the first person to use a wind machine on stage. That goes back to the '80s and maybe even '70s (someone will correct me if I'm wrong.) Is it really synonymous with Beyonce? Meh. Whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rachelle of London Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Have you not seen any performances from the 70s and 80s? Most singers used wind machines, from rock stars to soul singers. What is this thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frzndrwnwrld Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Yes, Madonna invented the wind machine. Someone really needs to add this to her Wikipedia page.

Samo Posted November 17, 2014 Author Share Posted November 17, 2014 Im not saying that she invented the wind machine, I was just saying that when I was 12 and I was watching the Brits on ABC TV in the US, I was impressed by her performance and the wind machine I completely forgot that she used it during performances of Frozen back in 1998 I tried to Google it with no definitive answer before I started this topic on here The snark and bitchiness in this forum is hilarious sometimes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IsaacHarris Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 LOVED her weave blowing in the wind! I always wondered if she was wearing human hair extensions during that performance. Upon further analysis, I'm guessing it was some kind of kanekalon fiber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VogueMusic Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Wait...people are backing some egotistical dickhead who acted like a damn child just because he didn't like someone's performance (no matter how ridiculous it was)? Act like everyone else in those award show audiences who don't like something - put a stank look on your face and sit your ass down...and voice your grievances in an interview. Sure, Michael was being ridiculously over-the-top with those performances, but it's not like this guy wasn't being any better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
