    Martha Graham gave Madonna the title Madame X

    This is my thought, but we must remember that even her humble beginnings were a bit embellished, such as the "coming to NYC with only $35 in her pocket", etc.  

    Also, let's think about this realistically. Martha Graham was a very established person long before Madonna became famous.  She was nearly 90 years old at the time, so I can't imagine it really was Martha that came to her door as she claims. 

    But it makes for a good story, and who is really going to challenge it, Martha?  She's been gone for several decades now.  I doubt anyone else is going think too hard about it. 

    The first time I saw her in the flesh, right in front of me I had been studying at the Graham School for only a few months. I was 18 and had come to New York to be a professional dancer – to set the world on fire. What I really wanted was to dance in Alvin Ailey’s company. Though I was cut in the first round of auditions, I won a partial scholarship to study at his school, but was told that if I wanted to master Ailey’s technique, I should really study at the Graham School. Of course. I knew who Martha Graham was – in the dance world you had to be brain-dead not to. Needless to say; I arrived there within 24 hours of receiving this information.

    I m in Italy now and I watched an Italian music tv channel and they play Medellín video, consisting of the replaying of the teaser “welcome to the world of madam x”. I was so pleasantly shocked! They do wanna play her even prior to the video!!!! If only the world was Italy!

    I know right. 🙂  What are you visiting? if I'm not indiscreet. 🙂

    They have permission to play it. Its been played in multiple countries including the US. They just havent sent it to radio. Either they dont care about radio and are focusing on streaming, they are sending it next week after music video, or they are not sending Medellin and waiting for next single. 

    In Italy Medellin has been played since its release.

    She is on her a game. This is reminding me of the erotica era, where the imagery and videos were cinematic and details precise, photos , looks, personas unbelievably beautiful, and without a doubt her performances will be some of her best. Very on point.

    A lot of current acts and the industry should feel ashamed by what she is delivering not just at her age but at her stage in her career. She makes everyone look lazy af lol

    😉 She has always gone at her own pace and it shows. ☺️
