beautyiswhereIfoundit Posted May 28 Posted May 28 I've seen some screen captures of Apple Music tracklist that had an 17# track with a video. could this be the short film?

LA, NYC, Chicago & Boston all had multiple nights for sale before the album dropped. I appreciate they were small venues, but I some of theatres were 4K seaters. So I think a lot more than just 5K fans redeemed the code for the album. Remember, the album cost was already built into the price of the tour ticket for American fans, they didn’t have to pay any extra so in essence, why wouldn’t you redeem it?

Tickets were on sale for a long time between the announcement in April and the MX album released in June. How do you know an only small amount of people redeemed ? It was never released?

Confessit II Posted May 28 Posted May 28 6 minutes ago, dollhouse said: i dont think all dates were sold out before 1st week, they must have released weekly numbers later after first week Oh you mean the tour tickets. Yes they sold very slowly I remember, they didn’t sell out straight away. But the tickets that did sell were well over 5K so I think 5K as you were saying in my humble opinion is way to low for the tour bundle figure of MX 95K total. Its all theories anyways as they never released the ratio between bought copies of MX and redeemed codes for the tour tickets. 11 minutes ago, dollhouse said: i hope it will premiere streaming only first (apple/spotify) I also hope the video is released exclusively to Spotify first.

Personally I won’t choose to watch it no matter what until after the album release because I don’t want to hear snippets of songs but I do look forward to seeing the stills and reading the descriptions and reactions here in the meantime. You're braver than me ! Not sure I'll be able to wait. I can do it for tours, but this? I don't think I could.

Absolutely release it everywhere like YT and officially across all platforms after a short time on Spotify. At the end of the day they have withheld it back for TriBeCa festival, carry on the exclusivity of it with Spotify to lock in some views towards the albums total in America. 17 minutes ago, beautyiswhereIfoundit said: https://x.com/i/status/2059472121982541985 If they are already preparing platforms to showcase it then it gives me big HOPE that we won’t have to wait too long post-premier at TriBeCa next week before getting to the watch it
Ekubo Posted May 28 Posted May 28 that video on apple has always been there and it's the visualizer for the album. I doubt they will update it with the Tribeca short video. Agreed on Bad Bunny. There is no way this was a feature and it wouldn't be in the press release for the album. A name like him draws way more attention than Sabrina. Rosalia might sounds plausible just because it wouldn't actually change much to disclose it now or later.
Anne Posted May 28 Posted May 28 I don't think she is releasing the short film right away after the premiere, more like closer or on the album release week.

That would be crazy, an entire 11 pre order week campaign and no video until the release week. I appreciate giving TriBeCa some time of exclusivity, but withholding the video until July 3rd & release week I think is too long.
acko Posted May 28 Posted May 28 I would love a good proper print interview... Not a write up and not a photoshoot
Ekubo Posted May 28 Posted May 28 they were also reporting about her flying to London here https://www.instagram.com/p/DYzkF7Hoo0_/ she is going back and forth a lot, considering that she will have to be in NY next Friday!

Silverfox Posted May 28 Posted May 28 6 hours ago, markm said: From Javier at UK mix Previous opening week numbers MDNA: US #1 - 359k UK #1 - 56.3k Rebel Heart: US #2 - 121k (9k behind the Empire album) UK #2 - 37.2k (12k behind Sam Smith) Madame X: US #1 - 95k UK #2 - 27k (behind Sam Smith) I expect 50K in the UK for CONFESSIONS II and 150K-175K in the USA. Interesting but it was Bruce Springsteen who beat her to #1 with Madame X in the UK.

Whenever Madonna is ‘quiet’ you know something good is on the way. I really hope that rumour of recording something with Graham Norton is true. But I think it said something was filmed at Koko and surely that would mean some fans were there, in which case we would have heard something more about it.

I purchased MX when it came out. on Amazon and when I heard Bruce was rivaling her for #1 in the States as he did the UK, I bought a copy on Apple! Fuck you, Boss! And she looks wonderful in London! Hope she's having the best time with this rollout.

peter Posted May 28 Posted May 28 2 hours ago, acko said: I would love a good proper print interview... Not a write up and not a photoshoot There was a reliable source that reported she would be in Interview magazine in the summer (maybe June?) … They mentioned the photographer of the shoot. Forgetting the name at the moment — a woman. But I don’t recall if there was a name for the person interviewing her. (There was also a rumor she might be on i-D magazine, but not sure about that. It’s just that her make-up artist works with i-D frequently. And that might not be a print interview like you were hoping for, anyway, if she does have a spread in an upcoming issue.)
Lolasmommy Posted May 28 Posted May 28 I would luv some promo where she talks about the making of the album and each of the songs- might be good to release a podcast or high profile radio interview the day before album release- this way she can do an old fashioned premiere of the full album or select songs before streaming starts.
