loowee Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Was it just me who feels the same? The era (the album, the singles, the visuals, the tours, the promo, the commercial success etc.) was amazing but she felt so distant in her interviews/IGTYAS. Why was that?

Nikki Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 it all felt very effortless. not in terms of work but her attitude. like she wasn't surprised she got hit after hit with such ease. she seemed very confident but not in an arrogant or negative way.

Kurt420 Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 I know what OP means, she seemed aloof not only during COADF era but the entire '01-'06 period. Pretty much her "Esther" years. I think the peak of this was actually '01-'03. She started to slowly come around during parts of RIT and COADF promo but that "distance" she had wasn't fully gone until S&S. Btw I do not feel this affected her work negatively in any way whatsoever BUT as someone who has seen her live on every tour since '01, I do prefer the Madonna we have on stage now compared to say DWT. Not sure how to properly explain it, but it seemed like she was "holding back" from being "MADONNA" in a lot of ways back then. I always attributed to getting older, "maturing" and trying not to be too salacious for Mr. Richie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genevieve Vavance Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 she had sad eyes like Britney during COADF promo, with HC she had that glow & spark again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5iVe Elements Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Maybe she felt the divorce was coming? Or she was realising she wasn't happy with the marriage anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nimos Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Quite the opposite: I thought she seemed very happy and relaxed during the COADF era. She was really charming on Parkinson's chat show, for example, and was a really good sport on that surreal Japanese SMAP TV programme, going along with their weird jokes.

When she's warm and friendly to her audience you get a sense of her genuine humanity. I do not blame Guy for Madonna's cold demeanor. It was her new found faith which made her quite serious.

nick00 Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 M did seem like an ice queen during certain parts of her career, but I like that about her personality. Had also the impression that her outward demeanor partly came from being seriously into jewish mysticism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apples388 Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 "Aloof"? Sorry but do you know what that word means? She was anything but aloof during the Confessions era. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starman Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 I think it was just because she really did A LOT of interviews and press on that era, so nothing could be too personal or take much time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivy Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 I'd say it was a mixture of the 7 year itch and a side effect from her HRT which can cause aloofness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeakMaker Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 I've always wondered of Guy Ricthies reaction to her boom box humping... Since she got involved with Guy Ritchie she seemed to be less and less interested in being sexy or remotely sexually provocative. She embraced violence and cowboy culture. She did a rap and produced a folksy album. She wrote a CHILDREN book. In contrast she then kissed Britney Spears. She did a full on dance recordand all of a sudden we saw her ass in a pink leotard. She humped dancers and boom boxes... Maybe Guy Ritchie wasn't too happy. Rumours of Stuart Price and Madonna having an affair were strong.. The album was phenomal in terms of success both critically and commercially. Hung Up was huge.. Maybe after their so called failures- American Life and Swept Away- he was jealous of Madonna going to sit back on her throne. It could have been a jealousy thing and Madonna must have felt very uncomfortable about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy looks dreadful now though, like a hobo. I bet when Madonna sees him now, she must be relieved they are not still together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Maybe she felt the divorce was coming? Or she was realising she wasn't happy with the marriage anymore? Exactly. If she was acting "aloof" - which I don't think she was. It was probably because she wanted to get away from that doof! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billyto Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 (edited) She was married with two kids and had lots of other projects on her plate (IABWA, etc.) I feel in a way she was just getting through the motions, being so used to them after more than 20 years at the top. Like some others say, I found her relaxed and gracious but not cheeky or daring as we know M can most definitely be. I think her Ice Queen peak was actually during Sticky & Sweet, going through the divorce and all she still came out every night looking perfectly buff and taut and pulled in the face just so, an aerodynamic pop lioness. I'm sad I missed that tour because of being a broke college student. Edited October 16, 2015 by billyto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you're in a marriage and there's no sexual interest or attraction from either party. You're going to find affection somewhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
