Yeah I'm avoiding social media, but the negative press is now clogging my news streams. Really sad Where? I just went on my own newsfeed, searching for top-line reactions, and there's not a negative headline in sight (yet)

It was the AWFUL AWFUL arrangement that killed it, and I suppose it somewhat exposed the vocals. You could actually feel the arena atmosphere deflate as it went on. I'll leave it at that. Anyway LOL at UK coming last, LOL at the host nation's score (all the smiles fool no one while there's atrocities being committed just down the road), BOO at my boo from Estonie flopping and well done Madge for the political statement. For those who value their mental health, stay away from social media. I am in total agreement with this post

Ai Papi Si. Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 I have this theory that sometimes Madonna fans make up negative reactions from invisible media sources just to immerse themselves in drama on here.

He focuses way too much on what other people think. Who cares what Twitter thinks?
whyme? Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 I loved the met gala performance so I was happy she did it live again. I guess the whole performance was too dark for Eurovision. At one point in Future, the background video made it feel like we were all in the fiery pits of hell. Don't know what that was all about. And Eurovision really hates political messages. Yea, she could've done Into the Groove and Like a Virgin and everyone would have loved her.

This is exactly what I said to my friends as we were watching it. She was basically singing acapella with a cheap midi backing.

Personally I enjoyed the performance, but expecting solid vocals or at the very least a good musical arrangement shouldn't be some unattainable illusion by over-zealous fans. I'm referring to some fans, the ones who particularly don't seem to like anything anymore, not all. I figured that was a given. I'm also referring to more than just fans at this board. And if some technical aspects weren't up to par, I understand that. Just seemed like everywhere I've look in Madonna fandom today, I could barely find a perspective that found anything to appreciate about it. Just seems to be a pattern I continuously find now, even when she's really good. Condescending though...really? There are people here who just tell others to fuck off, and I'm the one that's condescending? Try being someone who tries to find something to appreciate even when it isn't perfect, and god forbid you actually really like something that the general consensus has already written off in Madonna fandom, and then openly express that enjoyment...oh boy, I can tell you all about 'condescending'.

Well, let's say that the stars were aligned for a flat performance. It's in situations like this that I feel that Madonna is for sure surrounded by yes people, cuz how come all of that got green-lighted? It wasn't bad per se, but, in my opinion, was just boring and unmemorable and in the end it feels like a big wasted opportunity. I agree with everything
nimos Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 12 minutes ago, Ai Papi Si. said: Well, that was also 7 years ago. This is a delicate subject and I KNOW I'll get piled on for this, but Madonna is 60, almost 61. 7 years is also 7 years for your body. She was slowing down even before this. Compare Rebel Heart and MDNA, you can see the change. It doesn't mean she's unhealthy or sick, she's just getting older. We need to cut her some slack on this. She even admits she doesn't work out like she used to. Stop comparing her to younger versions of herself. Lol you’re making her sound like a frail old granny. We have no idea if there’s anything going on with her body or if she’s made a conscious decision to slow down for some reason.

Nick Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 Still think the woke activists will throw Madonna under the bus even if they may approve of her political messages today.
Shane Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 8 minutes ago, Ai Papi Si. said: I have this theory that sometimes Madonna fans make up negative reactions from invisible media sources just to immerse themselves in drama on here. Yes. Her fans are always way harder on her non tour live performance than non fans or casual fans. Some of the live performances that fans bitched about endlessly and which I personally enjoyed were the 1998 VH1 Fashion Awards The Power of Goodbye, 1999 Nothing Really Matters at the Grammys, 2014 Grammys Open Your Heart, and her Billboard Awards Prince tribute a couple of years ago.
Toni Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 Let’s spread Madonnas message and not the message of her detractors.
sotos8 Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 Greek media sai that LAP was dissapointing but future was a very good song

Nikki Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 Im shocked at myself for not being more dramatic. Perhaps because I expected this hate.. so let's focus on the POSITIVE.. spread the messages of M supporting Palestine on the Israeli stage
Acediace Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 Future was good Like a paryer was fine... the version is not that good but it's ok ... Also I dont get what so controversial with the flag... it was a symbol of unity... and I'm from Israel... and it was also expected
AlanLongoria Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 Numbers are far easier to judge than her performance so let's take a look at her catalogue on iTunes.

Ai Papi Si. Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 If Madonna wanted to dance the cha-cha like she did in the Medellin video with Maluma, she woulda done it at Billboard. If she wanted to do intricate choreo for Future she woulda done it. Maybe she didn't like the way it looked, maybe she didn't want to take the risk, maybe maybe maybe. To ignore the fact that she's 61 and hold her up to standards from 10, 20, 30 years ago is unfair. I'll leave it at that. The vocals I understand the gripes with though. Dunno what happened. But we have all heard worse from her lol (4 Minutes anyone)
