  1. I've watched it back a few times and it is an exemplary performance! But I do have to skip the fall, it's literally traumatic to see over again. It sends a jolt through me and I can't explain it.

    It was like for a split second she was pulled from the "Madonna Megastar Stratosphere" and literally hit the earth for all to see. It was completely shocking because it's Madonna. That's not even a bad thing but to see such a true star have a genuinely unrehearsed human moment was like being wrenched from that amazing fantasy world that Madonna gives us all to enjoy. It was a strange moment, unexpected but infinitely real.

    I can guarantee the world will never see her take a hit like that again though. She'll leave absolutely no room for error EVER again after that.

  2. I'm interested what direction she'll be taking after these contracts end. Supposing she'll be in her 60s that point, I wonder if she might rethink how often she wants to work etc.

    Will she renew her contracts or look to do things more independently? Given the changing nature of the industry, I wonder if any deal she gets will be more touring based than album centric.

  3. I started to really become aware of her during the American Life period. I was realitively young (probably around 12) but I remember really loving Love Profusion.

    If you're my age then you grew up in the Britney/Xtina era. Madonna was so refreshing. Yes she was older but that didn't even enter into the discussion (again why I think it's so sad that her age appears to be a factor for certain young people and organisations now but I digress)

    In an era of teenybopper stuff she appeared almost like an alternative kind of megastar. I was very intrigued by her and remember thinking she was very beautiful.

    So anyway time passed and I really began to stan for her during Confessions when I guess I was a little older and able to appreciate her messages and lyricism.

    Another side note but the first time I ever heard of Madonna was Ray of Light. I was with my parents in the car in Paris and we were driving through the city at night with the CD playing. I'll always have such vivid memories of that night. The night lights and the music ❤️

  4. Damn right. All my life, I've struggled with insecurities, letting them prevent me from trying and accomplishing a lot of the things I've wanted to do. And now I'm kicking myself for not seeing all along that I had all the motivation and inspiration I needed, right there in front of me, all these years, in Madonna. Why did it take me so long??

    I can relate to this.

    But I think Madonna is living proof that it's never too late and you're never too old to do something you're truly meant to do <3
