dcbyebyebaby Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 All the HC and MDNA talk show and magazine covers did NOTHING for the albums. She needed to do live performances and she did like 3 total and two of the them were for a very select group of people (the HC promo shows). The magazines and talk shows will come when the album is out. They have had a habit of announcing things on Mondays this era so maybe tomorrow or next we will know more. Everythings been perfect so far and there is no need for doom and gloom two weeks before the album release. If your excitement of Madonna comes from how she does commercially or memorizing how many talk shows/magazines/live performance etc (as I have seen at least one member consistently post about in multiple threads) you may need to take a step back.

Shane Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Is anyone else particularly excited about Batuka? I loved the snippet of lyrics quoted in British Vogue. Have absolutely no idea what to expect from this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P Really? HC was the 9th top selling Album of 2008 Worldwide with 4 million sold and even MDNA managed to become the 12th top selling album worldwide of 2012 with 2 million sold We would LOVE those numbers with MX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was because 4 Minutes/GITM and the superbowl/ticket bundle. She wont have those numbers but that shouldnt give someone anxiety. Just be happy you get a new album with 18 new tracks.

Yes I hear you, I think I'm frustrated the most because this is her MOST visual era of her career, she adapted a new persona, with it being such a visual era, Madonna should be doing the most photo shoots, video shoots, performances etc to sell these personas So again it makes no sense that she hasn't done much of anything to showcase this, this is not a typical Madonna era, this is an era that's very visual by design thanks to the Madame X persona So she should be doing the MOST promo of her career to sell it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jairo Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 We're two weeks away for the album release. Keep calm. My bet is that she's saving herself for the whole week. Talk shows, interviews, performances, etc etc We know nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imakicola Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 2 hours ago, Samo said: Yeah but Madonna did lots of press for WE , which came out the week of the Superbowl. She had ONE hour specials for Graham Norton, Anderson Cooper, the Good Morning America/2020/ Nightline Cynthia McFaden Interview, Rock center Interview, Superbowl press conference and separate interviews with journalists, another one hour special episode of Ellen DeGeneres Show while on tour, appearance on Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and Conan show behind the scenes of MDNA tour, Harper's Bazaar, The Advocate and Vanity Fair Italia covers She did A LOT of press , it was just more geared towards WE with the album only being casually mentioned MX is shaping up to be her least promoted era BY FAR For me, I don’t count the interviews that are all about the film. That’s like counting hard candy fitness interviews as album promo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocknrolla Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 At least Prides are probably bigger than ever now, but a small part of me is slighty disappointed she is doing Prides now like she is Debbie Gibson or Cyndi Lauper or something, I know that sounds awful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Leno show had a copy of the MDNA CD and mentioned the albums release date as part of his introduction of her, it counts. Graham Norton, Anderson, Cynthia McFaden interviews all talked about MDNA at length, Cynthia even aired footage of Madonna in the studio with MIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She got Spotify deals to show Medellin on their playlists, billboards all over the world. Just because it’s not magazine covers or news interviews doesn’t mean it’s not promo. She hyped this up big time. Crave live chat. Medellin MTV special. Apple special. Holographic BBMAs. Doing a video (and on her insta) for every releases track thus far. Having TWO videos for Medellin. Having both singles’ videos teased heavily on insta. She is definitely more digitally engaged. And think about how many hours of filming for film projects she has done, including the holograms. Edited June 3, 2019 by imakicola Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iconic Fetus Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 I’m sure that she will do some promo on launch week, sadly Ellen and Jimmy Floppon. Wish she could show up in new shows or do a live streaming concert. Maybe pretaped shows for the UK that week or an interview, and hopefully something in Italy,France and Germany, it was refreshing seeing her doing that for LFL. And in Japan too!!! Or Spain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very good promo and a special occasion. Plus we get to watch it a million times on video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it is important to keep the expectations low, but after the teaser in April I thought we would get a Madonna tsunami and I was so excited. Maybe there is still a chance for it with the album release... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stefo Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 (edited) This is not just a normal Pride, it's the 50th and I think she is doing it as a way to take part of it, thank back and support the community, our battle and the rights defense itself. But are we really always just wanna look at how glamorous the things she is doing are? It's a happy news guys, let's cheer at this ... now, my real problem is: is there gonna be a f...king live streaming?!?

MichaelDieker Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 OMG getting more and more excited by the DAY! I am taking the entire day off from work on the 14th so I can devote my day to listening in peace to the new album and preparing my home for the epic Madame X Listening Party I'm having that night haha NOW I don't know what I should wear! I could emulate any of the Madame X personas or go with an old school Madonna look. What to do with my HAIR?! Do I bleach it out again in her honor? Black like Madame Accordion? I'm gonna have a selfie station with various Madonna props and costume pieces (cones, eye patch, cowboy hat, etc) I'm gonna have bottles of Rose and fixins for lemon drop martinis, and tons of Mike and Ike candies Any other suggestions for my party?!?!?!
