Madonna: 25 Things You Don’t Know About Me


Recommended Posts

Thank you for summarizing Glinda! Lol@ no's. 3, 7, 8 and 20. Her comment about Lourdes and the doctor was sweet.

I agree with her that her best feature are her beautiful eyes and I also dislike "Material Girl". There are very few M songs I dislike but MG happens to be one of them. Nice to know the Queen herself shares the same opinion.

I love Material Girl. I wish she'd stop hating on it.

Thanks Glinda!! I love these kind of interviews as you get to learn a little more about her. I need to try out her secret beauty ritual!!

Why is she so obsessed with Drake ? :lol:

Her happiest moments were when her kids were born and when she got married

This part tho, made me a lil sad for some reason :(

In her Howard Stern interview, she said she liked the song but hated the fact that she was known as the Material Girl all of the time as she is not materialistic. Also said the song was "ironic" but some people did not get it or something similar.

I love "Bitch I'm Madonna" too, I am crazy about the Demo 2 version of it, it's amazing!!! She needs to include that and the Diplo remix if it's released as the third single ;)

She always picks a current song when asked those questions. Deep in her heart she knows that in her entire discography, BIM is not her all time fave. She just likes what the title says. Just like she hates what Material Girl says. However, she must be strong because MG is one of her classics and most will forever love it. LOL.

I love that she literally called out the whole , well I guess if I am married to JayZ, Obama will meet me.

Here's the full shit:

1. My all-time favorite Madonna song is "Bitch, I'm Madonna" - naturally. And my least favorite is "Material Girl." I never, ever want to hear it again!

2. My favorite city is Rome. It's so beautiful. The light is soothing and calming to me, the architecture is splendid and the food is incredible. I totally love it.

3. I can't stand mushrooms. Or escargot. Yuck! It's like snot. Expensive snot.

4. The person I idolize most is Paul Farmer. He's a doctor and activist who rebuilt the health-care system inHaiti even before the 2010 earthquake. He's done the same in Rwanda.

5. The last time I went grocery shopping was a year ago.

6. I miss absolutely nothing about growing up in Michigan. Nothing at all.

7. The person I most want to meet is President Obama. When the heck am I going to meet him? He just needs to invite me to the White House already. He probably thinks I'm too shocking to be there. I'm serious. If I was a little bit more demure . . . or if I was just married to Jay Z. Hey, if Jay would only take me as his second wife, then I'd score an invitation.

8. The one thing I'd never be caught dead wearing is a fur bikini.

9. My happiest moments were when my children (Lourdes, 18, Rocco, 14, David, 9, and Mercy, 9) were born and when I got married both times (to Sean Penn and Guy Ritchie).

10. My favorite part of my body is my eyes. My least is my dancer's feet. They are pretty disgusting.

11. I have found marriages don't last if you share bathrooms. The best thing about being single is there's no one to throw out of the bathroom when I want privacy.

12. The thing I miss least about marriage is being called "the wife." The worst.

13. My most fattening food indulgence is either pizza or french fries. Or potato chips, actually. Love them all.

14. The last time I was starstruck was when (French actor) Alain Delon called me while I was in Copenhagenduring my last tour. I was trying to get him to do an onstage cameo during a small show in Paris. I was shaking because I love him so much! I never met the dude and only knew him from movies. He was my ridiculous teenage crush.

15. I don't really watch TV. I only like two shows - True Detective and an Irish series called The Fall - and I'm not embarrassed about them. Many people say, "The Fall with Jamie Dornan," but I say, "The Fall with Gillian Anderson." She's so good.

16. The lifelong ambition I still want to fulfill is to go on a dream date with Drake - and only kiss him.

17. The most embarrassing moment of my life was falling off the stage - let me rephrase that, being choked off the stage by two little Japanese girls - at the 2015 Brit Awards. Extremely embarrassing!

18. The most beautiful thing I've ever seen was my daughter (Lourdes) playing the ukulele and singing "La Vie en Rose" for me.

19. My secret beauty ritual is to put ice on my eyes every morning. Ice, ice baby.

20. Speaking of, if I were trapped on a desert island with either (ex-boyfriend) Vanilla Ice or Dennis Rodman, I would pick Dennis. He has a better sense of humor. Plus, he could always wear my clothes.

21. The quality I most loathe in people is making assumptions. Not doing research, investigating or asking questions and just assuming something. Oh, that drives me bonkers. I also can't stand when I'm talking to someone and they're texting. My kids do it! It drives me up the wall. I always put my hand on their phones and ruin whatever they're doing.

22. I can't say what my worst date was, but there have been many. I'm a woman of the world, baby. One nonnegotiable attribute in a lover: He must not ever want to be away from me for more than two weeks at a time.

23. I have major claustrophobia. I don't like being stuck in small, enclosed spaces or in crowds. They freak me out.

24. My ideal day off is spent lying in bed all day - sleeping for a few hours, then waking up and watching old movies, like my favorite, Breathless. I eat in bed, have my children come and hang out with me, and then I fall back asleep. I never leave my bedroom.

25. My favorite memories of Michael Jackson were getting him to let down his guard. He was so shy. The time I succeeded most was after I got him drunk at the Ivy in Beverly Hills. I was driving my Mercedes and dared him to throw his sunglasses out the window. We couldn't stop laughing.

But who doesn't like mushrooms?! YUMM.

Exactly. I forgive her only because she singled out Breathless as her favorite movie. It's one of my absolute pleasures of all time as well.

Whether she's being ironic or not, she's allowed to appreciate her newer songs. BIM is great

Yes! I can't STAND when people do this ugh

Bless her for always preaching the truth

Is the dude M's colourist or something? There's a lot of M related shit on his IG, though perhaps he's merely a fag. :1251:

Is it weird that @madonna just mentioned Gillian Anderson in an interview and moments later she is sitting in my chair? #xfiles #haircolourist #blondehair#thefall #gilliananderson Cc. @medullacoyorkvilleSpace is just the beginning.....

Outtakes from the interview.

Nothing's better than more, more, more! Leave it to Madonna to exceed Us Weekly's request for 25 Things You Don't Me. Speaking with Us' Entertainment Director Ian Drew recently, the pop legend, 56, sounded off on everything from her goal to meet President Obama (and Drake!), her disdain for fur bikinis, escargot, and her home state of Michigan in the much talked-about, published version of "25 Things."

But that's not all she had to say. In these outtakes from our exclusive chat with the legendary "Ghosttown" singer, Madonna muses on her family, filming Evita, the pitfalls of fame and who she might owe an apology to, among other topics. Read on!

US WEEKLY: In the spirit of rebel hearts, what was your ultimate "rebel" moment?

MADONNA: The ultimate moment where I most felt like a rebel was in St. Petersburg, Russia [in 2012 during the MDNA Tour] when I was told they were going to arrest anyone who was openly or obviously gay and they came to my shows and I spoke out against the government. Eighty-seven people were arrested and I was fined like $1 million. They dropped the lawsuit, though. When I stood up for Pussy Riot was around the same time, but there have been a lot of those moments. I also think about when I was in Toronto and they said if I simulated masturbation during one of my shows [during the Blonde Ambition Tour in 1990] they would have me arrested and I was like, ‘F--k you! I’m doing it anyway. So arrest me.’ They didn’t in the end. Lots of those. Then there’s the Vatican when they said they would have me...you know, whatever! It goes on and on....

US: Love the track on the album "Unapologetic Bitch" — so, who's the biggest unapologetic bitch of them all?

M: Kanye West is the biggest unapologetic bitch besides me.

US: Anyone you'd like to apologize to, though?

M: If I could apologize to one person, it would be...no one. I'm an unapologetic bitch!

US: With two marriages and other high-profile relationships behind you, what's your best relationship advice?

M: My best piece of relationship advice is you can’t take it with you.

US: You have so many classic, hit songs in your catalog — but do any other artists' songs make you envious?

M: I wish I had written and recorded a song called “Retrograde” by James Blake. I love him.

US: What's one of your biggest pet peeves?

M: I can’t stand when I walk into a room and everyone’s not talking to each other and just on their phones.

US: Favorite workout?

M: My favorite workout is metabolic interval training on a Bosu Ball.

US: What's your favorite part about being a mother?

M: The best thing about being a mom of four [Lourdes, 18, Rocco, 14, David and Mercy, both 9] is all of the life lessons they teach me all day long, every day of the week.

US: What are the ultimate perks and downfalls of fame?

M: The thing I love most about being famous is people listening to me when I have something important to say. The thing I like least about being famous is being overly scrutinized for everything I say and do.

US: What's your favorite book of all time?

M: I’m obsessed with so many books that it’s impossible to name them all but I really love The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls. So good.

US: What's your favorite moviemaking memory?

M: My favorite scene that I ever filmed was singing “Don’t Cry For Me Argentina” from the balcony of the Casa Rosada in Argentina [where the real Eva Peron once stood] during Evita. That was amazing. SO real and surreal. Bizarre.

I wonder what she means?

She's obsessed with James Blake ! After "limit to your love" it's "retrograde" now. Please work with him, stop listening to what your children are listening thinking it is what you should do and follow your own heart bitch !

I think she means, just leave it behind when it is done. Plus, when you are in it you think it is everything but at the end of the day, in this life, when the time comes, it is all about you.

Yes, I think that's what she meant too.

Huh? There are actually a lot more mature songs on Rebel Heart. Just because she likes James Blake doesn't mean she can't also like some fun "younger" skewing stuff.
