You know, I’ve literally nothing good to say about Madame X anymore, it’s all trash, it’s all designed to refine her fan base down to the hardcore that will throw money at her no matter what she does. Account deletion requested cause seriously, there’s no positives to give anymore. Peace

Really. You *are* the type of fan that would give rave reviews to Madonna taking a dump just cause it’s her. Next

I’m not trying to change your opinion, I never said anyone’s life was ruined. I’m saying she has zero respect for her audience. I don’t expect her to change, neither would I expect anyone who thinks down to Earth celebrities are lying.

It does feel like she’s got her head in the clouds. She talked about wanting to get closer to her fans but she’s treating people who have paid a fortune to be there badly by keeping them waiting so long. And what the hell is that all about with the photo? Guilt tripping the audience for not earning mega bucks?! I feel like she could come on stage 5 hours late, bend over and fart at the audience for 90 minutes and then be confused as to why anyone had a problem.

“I’ll be poor if the poor are humiliated” Yeah ok.

I’m not surprised. And I know she’s never been the strongest live singer which is why I didn’t even consider buying tickets for this tour. I’m not having a go at the show, I haven’t seen it, I haven’t even heard it, from what I’ve heard, it’s beautiful and very atmospheric. To me it’s just a matter of principle, for those prices, I expect a hell of a lot more than what Madonna can deliver vocally.

I understand that, I just prefer to hear the wobbles and the gasps, it just feels more real to me, that’s why I like The Drowned World Tour, everything sounds like it’s right there. I personally just find it makes a big difference

i Just think for the cost of these tickets, every single thing should be live

Act of Contrition is a very very good track Hey You is just lovely Madame X would be an absolutely fantastic album if it wasn't for the robo vocals Mer Girl is her finest non single track I rank Deeper and Deeper as one of her darkest videos Sorry is terrible

She should offer the picture to whoever can sing the most obscure Madonna song or who has the best themed outfit or best tattoo. Something like that, then I can believe that this really *is* for the fans!

Ah that puts a different spin on it. I wasn’t aware of that.

What this bit is all about? I haven’t seen the tour and so yes, I’m just going on accounts from others but how does it go down in the theatre? Do people applaud, is there excitement? Reading the accounts, it comes across a bit..... uncomfortable. Rosie O’Donnell got the first one, DontTemptMe26 saw staff give Andy Cohen the cash to pay for it, thegoldencalf reports that a guy offers $160 and she’s rude to him, selling it instead for $1000 to someone else, Enrico posted a report from another site saying a nurse from Spain forked our $1500 for it. I just don’t get what this bit is meant to be? Is it a bit of harmless fun? Does it come across like that in the theatre? It’s coming across like humiliating the poor on paper but I know that’s not what it’s intending to be, and don’t think for a second that I genuinely believe that’s Madonna’s intention, it’s just not translating well to me. I guess it really is a “you have to be there” moment?

There are a few places in Soho that’ll be open late on week nights, but the majority close around 11pm

That’s not really the point though is it? She just seems to have this attitude of “your lives WILL revolve around my schedule and fuck you if you don’t like it.” What about staff that work at the theatre that have to stay late because she can’t be arsed going on stage on time? She seems to be looking at everyone around her as “little people” and frankly, it only adds to the air of elitism this tour seems to embrace. $1000 for a selfie.... fuck that

It shows a lack if respect to the audience. Respect your audience, especially when they’ve paid a fortune to be there
