Madame X has been a Success for Madonna!

So many people have derided Madonna with her concept album, MADAME X, but it's been a tremendous success for her as she approaches her 61st birthday.

MADAME X hit Number One on the Billboard Top 200 Album chart, far outdistancing in physical units the number two album by Bruce Springsteen.

Madonna charted her highest Adult Contemporary hit in over 20 years with "Crave", which is still rising on the charts!

"Medellín" with super-sexy Maluma has become her latest Number One Dance hit, with "I Don't Search, I Find" poised to be another.

The controversial "God Control" video showed the world that Madonna can still be on the forefront of the world's greatest issues, like homophobia and gun control.

The clips Madonna has shown from the MADAME X tours rehearsals look exciting! This tour will blow everyone's minds!

To those who scoffed at MADAME X, well, she showed she knew what she was doing. Way to go, Madonna!

The irony is the album is the biggest flop of her career and she can’t even sell out small theaters. The album is the fastest fall out of the Top 200 in Billboard history. It got to #1 thanks to ticket bundling. The album only went #1 in two countries. No one cares about Adult Contemporary Charts. That’s for old farts. The same goes for Dance, the Cher chart. Her music video had minuscule views. She hasn’t had one hit this decade anywhere. Nice, try, OP.

After the Beatles music movie and the new Bruce Springsteen music movie, will there be a Madonna music movie? Apparently, a Prince music movie is in development.

Would Madonna allow some young ingenue to frolic and vamp to Borderline and Holiday on the big screen? Or would she rather die than let the world be reminded of her 80s hit songs?

That's only because she did an album/ticket bundle. It's cheating. To be fair, lots of artists are cheating nowadays with these ticket bundles, like Billie Eilish, Jonas Brothers, and now Taylor Swift with her upcoming album. Their first week sales numbers would be cut in half without them. I'm glad that Billboard is doing away with them next year.

Turning 50 and the end of her marriage to Guy Ritchie really did a number on her r84. Although she had some minor procedures before, it was 2007/08 when Madonna really started fucking with her face. For me, when she showed up at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with chipmunk cheeks and just looking freakish is when she changed for me. She has never been the same since. She still looked good for awhile but her face looks frozen now.

And this tour, while I like some of the ideas and song choices, I'm skeptical about her voice. It seems to have lost its lustre. Yeah Madonna was never a great singer but she could deliver a good vocal performance when she put in the effort. She seems to barely warm up anymore and she puts more effort (and chemicals and needles) into her face than preserving her voice.

by Anonymousreply 88August 3, 2019 1:29 AM

R88 I thought the Guy Ritchie years were incredibly boring, when she was doing the lady of the manor nonsense and didn’t seem to have her own opinions of her own anymore because she wanted to please that asshole.

She can no longer coast on being the Queen of Pop anymore because of her age. She may fight ageism, but she's certainly not winning the battle. So many times I hear "she needs to retire", "she needs to pack it in". We hear it on here often enough.

I'm not even sure she will be able to pull off another large scale tour at the ticket prices she's been demanding. The lateness and bad press for Rebel Heart I think have hurt her in the long run.

She seems to have lost her physical stamina quite dramatically. I still like her, overall, I mean, respect for her career, but she seems like a drug addict , a drunk, or sick. The skin care line and promotion and instagram posings have been downright creepy, and Madame X persona is not interesting and IS tacky. Tacky concept, and tacky looks. Da fuq happened to her? Is it just age? Late menopause put her through a wringer and she couldn't recover? I thought she had it together at Superbowl time. The videos had energy and movement, though were entering into Normal Desmond shadow lands.

R132 Sadly I think you’re right.

At this point I would be happy if she simply did a greatest hits tour or a Las Vegas show, where she performs actual hits in their original form. But she can’t accept the fact that she is an oldies act now and doesn’t want to perform most of her hits. And when she does perform an old song, she almost always performs a shitty remixed version that sounds nothing like the original and fucks it up.

She’s so out of touch it’s embarrassing.

I love Madonna, I've been a lifelong fan, but it's clear the public are not here for her anymore. Is it ageism? Yes, some of it is. But it's also the facts that r133 succinctly stated - her creepy Instagram posts and this suddenly lobotomized Madonna with enhanced ass is such a contrast to the energetic Madonna of only a few years ago. Yes, I know she's 61 but Madonna also has been a lifelong dancer. Obviously something has happened in the last few years - painkillers? Whatever it is, the combination of her slowing down and the bad plastic surgery adds a ghoulish effect to everything she does.

I think Madonna on social media has hurt her more than helped her. I find it interesting that for such a legend, she doesn't have that many followers as many of her contemporaries. And her posts are often weird and pointless. They've taken a lot of the mystique away from her. And for someone who claims she's a freedom fighter, she's more about posting horrible selfies than posting politically charged updates. She could learn a lesson or two from Bette Midler who is often very funny and direct on Twitter.

I can’t stand the album. I’m a very disappointed fan. But the concern about ticket sales is total bullshit. She allowed her fans access to tickets early and priced them incredibly reasonably. My ticket cost less than $150 and I could sell it for between $500 and $600....There was probably no promotional budget for the tour other than some YouTube videos. But seriously, try to get a seat in a major city and see what you would pay before pretending like she’s having trouble selling out.

("She called us motherfucjers! She's so cool! *). Perhaps in these smaller venues it will become clear to her that no, not everyone wants to hear songs from an album that didn't sell and just do a few of its standouts (Crave, God Control) and play the hits from her catalog. Like many fans, I bought the tickets before the album came out and paid well for the experience of seeing her in a more intimate venue than the usual arena. On the bright side, if she performs Killers Who Are Partying, once I hear her start with "I will be gay, if the gays are burned", I'll know I have five minutes for a poop break.

Hard Candy marked a noticeable difference in her career. When she showed up at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with that hideous face "makeover", you knew our Madonna was lost forever.

The intersection of Guy Ritchie and Madonna splitting, her turning 50 and releasing Hard Candy was a turning point. Her insecurity and desperation became more transparent.

I just watched one of her Instagram videos, she can’t move half of her face. It looks like she had a stroke.

r255 it's sad, isn't it? I watched the Girlie Show on video the other day and she's so energetic and agile. She looked great and she was 35 then.

She moves like the Crypt Keeper now.

No one expects anyone to do the things that they did 30 years ago but they also don’t expect you to still try doing it while making an ass out of yourself. I don’t know what or who Madonna is rebelling against anymore. She seems to be emotionally retarded. Wait until her elderly father dies. She’ll really be lost. You can’t be taken seriously talking about fighting ageism when you’ve hacked up your face and everything you do comes off as desperate and ingenious. Madonna has always been for Madonna. She seems to live in the same bubble Michael Jackson did and simply doesn’t know what to do with herself. She comes off as tragic. Really miserable. I would not want her life not even the money. She’s a warning to people as to what can happen to famous people who never end up ever being truly fulfilled.

She's never photographed with anyone her own age. Always be-boppin around with kids and people half her age (including her ever-changing boyfriends).

She's mentally a teenager and will not mature gracefully. I think she started that skin care line because she was investing so much time and energy on trying to look 21, that she thought she may as well make some money from it.

So fucking sick of her ending concerts with Holiday.

That's why Girlie Show was so great. She ended it with Everybody instead of Holiday.

by Anonymousreply 271August 22, 2019 4:03 AM

R271 Thank you! I am SO fucking sick of Holiday. Never did like that annoying ass song. Everybody was way better. If she wants to sing a song from her first album, why doesn’t the bitch sing Physical Attraction instead? For someone who claims she doesn’t like repeating herself, she sure sings the same fucking songs over and over (Holiday, Like a Prayer, Vogue, Human Nature).

by Anonymousreply 272August 22, 2019 4:16 AM

Agree with r271 and r272. Everybody was a great closer. She's already closed Who's That Girl, Reinvention and Rebel Heart with Holiday and it was the first encore for Blond Ambition and DWT. It can sit out this tour. Same with Like a Prayer, Human Nature. I don't mind La Isla Bonita, though.

Physical Attraction needs to be revived. Same with Angel. Gambler is another.

I fucking knew Holiday would be in the setlist. I'm sure it's wedged between Music and Human Nature.

Everything she does now is so goddamn boring and predictable. Would she ever be able to take a 5-6 year break?

There are still TONS of tickets available for this show.

I hope she closes her show with Baby Love. That's her best song.

Is anyone surprised? Nobody is interested in buying tickets for a show with a lame ass setlist.

No. She can’t stand not getting any attention.

Baby Love was indeed her best track.
