Fact that even the ocean shore was full of boats crowding to see her.. Brazil really gave her, her flowers 🥹. Oh Madonna you deserve all this admiration and more..
When Martha Graham was at the end of her life & her Dance company was in severe debt/in jeopardy of closing, Madonna paid off the entire debt and saved the school still active today as a thank you to Martha (who she trained with and ofc gave her the monicker Madame X)
One thing that has been made clear to me from reading Mary Gabriel’s M Bio is that she was intermingling w Basquiat, Harring, Warhol, etc because she too is a visual artists herself. Arguably the best and most prolific of the bunch.
Recently found out M wrote this song in 15 mins, and recorded it on a fucking 8-Track in ONE TAKE. All this to say is how insane M’s talent is..girls w entire teams and budgets can’t come up w something 1/50th as good :/
Imagine going from struggling artist in a roach infested apartment in NYC and eating out of the trash; to being escorted w a police motorcade like a world leader before playing to an audience of 2 million..it’s like a fairytale but bttr because it’s real & my bitch is living it😷
Remember when white America lost their shit during the Jon Benet Ramsey murder but not a mouse stirred when ICE “lost” 1,475 immigrant children.. America great..?
I heard it all before, I heard it all before
I heard it all before, I heard it all before
I heard it all before, I heard it all before
I heard it all before, I heard it all before
I heard it all before, I heard it all before
I heard it all before, I heard it all before
I love how Gaga has all these fantasies of ppl she wants to be & actually DOES IT. Jazz crooner? ✔️ Warhol factory wannabe ?✔️ Country girl? ✔️ & now Hollywood darling w probable Oscar & lbh she’s salivating for a Hollywood star.. when she does something she DOES IT all the way

Tea. Kathy Grant and Lolita San Miguel were the ONLY two people personally certified by Joseph Pilates to teach. Period. Romana Kryzanowska likes to take credit but she was NOT hand picked by Joe to succeed him. If anything she hijacked it & tried to claim it.
Thinking of the 200,000 Salvadorians and their families today. They are our friends and neigbors and even our poets. Thanks to
@jzsalvipoet
for writing this evermore relevant piece.
Her artistry is so weird.There’s something so stunted and juvenile abt it all.. It’s like she’s living her middle school dream of being a pop star, but with the actual mentality and artistic depth of that same middle schooler.. & we all have the misfortune of having to witness it
Gonna sound so pretentious but there is something so punk about getting into her music and riding for her.. checks out since she started as a punk artist before anything.. it’s her foundation
No cuz i had a boomer israeli-settler client tell me about how delicious all the food is in israel.. talking about Dolmas, Tabbouleh and Hummus.. the delusion. That’s like when Americans travel abroad and brag about the food in the US, entire time talking about Mexican dishes 😭
with kate bush’s increasing popularity atm i think it’s time that we, as a collective, band together and figure out wtf her fans are called bc i have seen both lionhearts and love-hounds used
Legend has it that a 9yo Nathy Peluso was busking one day & a woman on vacation stopped in her tracks aghast that pedestrians were disregarding such talent..she dropped 200 pesos in her hat & told her; “mija, you’re going to save Latin music one day”... that woman was Celia Cruz.
No but let’s talk about it.. Gaga’s lower east side days were just her doing Madonna Cos Play.. Stefani was dedicated to skinwalking M. I gurantee you she had a wall full of posters of her and everything..
40 years in, and single handedly attracting a crowd of 2 million in a foreign country where an entirely another language is spoken..Madonna you will always be famous !! 😭
