I'm sure the fans complaining about the audio treatment of the broadcast were the same people throwing her under the bus after Eurovision 2019.
"But she doesn't need it!". Then for whatever reason she has a bad day, or is full of nerves, or any of the one thousand reasons that can affect her voice (it has happened during the tour, better and worse days vocally)... and then you'd be complaining too.
She can't never win.
If you thought for a minute that you were going to get raw vocals in 2024 on a TV broadcast watched (legally) by more than 50M people (imagine how many on the Internet), I'm sorry but you're out of your minds.
And sorry to burst anyone's bubble, but she's retouched audio since "The Virgin Tour" VHS in 1985. Compare the news footage or the bootleg with the final product.
She's a perfectionist. She wants to offer the best final product possible. You should know by this point.
I was never shocked by her voice at Eurovision, it's Madonna, sometimes it's great, sometimes it's not perfect

That was the last vocal performance she really studied for, prepared and put effort into.
After that, she was always vocally mediocre or ok at best. And sometimes she was even really bad. So bad like she wasn’t even a singer but some random drunk girl at a cheap karaoke bar
She was never mediocre. It's just that we can't hear her live voice at 100%.

Not exactly. He had an amazing voice and showed for more than a decade that he sang incredibly well. That was his reputation. He started lip-syncing when his voice got damaged and couldn't keep up the same level, because he was an obsessive perfectionist (and honestly, it annoys me if it implies losing humanity and authenticity), but nobody doubted he could sing even when lip-syncing because they all knew he delivered perfect vocal performances.
Madonna always sang pretty much in tune even though she wasn't always perfect (she sounded ok at BAT, accept it), but she was never at MJ's vocal level. So, every time she lip-synced, it was in a context where her reputation as a good singer wasn't established yet.
And they've always been tough on her, even though she didn't sing worse than other popstars in the end. The reason is also that she was always a controversial figure, a woman who exposed her sexuality (even in a religious perspective) and defended the weakest. Plus, she built a reputation as a "mean diva" who treated everyone badly. She's always been a very divisive artist.
And through the years she got worse and became a "bad" singer. So for the general public she's either a bad singer or the queen of lip-syncing
For the Prince Tribute at Billboard, her voice was absolutely perfect, it was 100% live and it was in 2016

Her voice was never horrible on this tour. On many bootlegs you can hear her voice live, and it sounds great (better than the Blond Ambition
). On the other hand, I agree about the “insecurity” aspect: you get the feeling that she doesn't want to show the slightest flaw, and frankly, that's a shame, because it's these little imperfections that make her voice so authentic and so special.
At home, when I listen to the live in Rio, I can hear her voice live by turning up the sound on the center speaker of my amp. -

That was more than 20 years ago. We can't pretend a perfect live voice with all the dance moves ecc now at 65 or in the future. Even if her dance steps are more simple, she still goes on with age. I assume we can Deal with this and not making a drama.
I'm OK with that and her aging voice is not a problem for me. But the fake voice like in the S&S DVD is a problem for me.

good morning..most of the fanbase wants to blame on Kevin when the only "enemy" is M herself
I don't understand why. The Drowned World Tour DVD is 100% live vocals and her voice is perfect

It seems they did something similar as the S&S recording - adding rehearsal vocals layered over her raw live vocals. I think it sounded pretty good!
The S&S DVD is a shame, especially on songs like Borderline
The B rolls from Athens and Lisbon are so much metter than this joke. -

Yes, but with louder backing track volume...
Is there a way to enhance the audio from the bradcast to make the live vocals louder ?

She did Holiday as you can see here. I'm sure she won't cut Open Your Heart either, please. Mother & Father is a great song with a beautiful performance and we will have it on the Mexican filming of the Tour. Let's focus on today's party and celebration instead of being negative over a song or a corset. Please! We don't know how long it will be until the next show or anything really by Madonna, let's enjoy!

Is there a Mexican filming of the tour? Really?

And what about Holiday and Open Your Heart?
I don’t doubt both are still in

I hope mother and father will stay in the setlist. I don’t care if it’s not a single, it’s a very important song.

Woww that's impressive !!! So many exciting moments you must have lived online ! Another one is coming tomorrow night 🎉🎉🎉
But so much. I can still remember, in 2008, leaving home in the middle of the night at a friend's house in the city center with my computer under my arm to watch the Hard Candy launch showcase at the Roseland Ballroom because my internet connection was too unstable that day.
And I'm not talking about the concert ticket sales, the war each time, the release of the video clip, which was immediately censored, and the album American Life, her sensational comeback with Hung Up 2 years later, the leak of Candy Shop a few months before the album's release, which baffled everyone. In fact, there's never a dull moment with Madonna.

More "Music" rehearsals with Pabllo Vittar.
So Music is in the the last act as an encore or in the cow girl section ?

She had totally scrapped everything from that whole shoot. We've got some pictures when M's pictures hard drives have been hacked back then and we've got tons of outtakes leaking (remember when that guy has been arrested by the police), otherwise we would not even know that shoot has happen. If she has ditched the pictures make sense she would have also ditched the video. I'm talking about this shoot :
Keep in mind that at that very time she has scrapped a whole chapter of visual works including several sets of shoots :
If you look closely, the tread mill shoot is a total different shoot, curly hair, different set etc... It was made for the shooting of the "Give it 2 me" video which, at that time, was still the album title. For the people who were around at that time, remember the first low quality snippets that leaked from "Give it 2 me" ? I'm the person who has leaked them (hope the police won't arrest me now 😂), Here's the story ;
At that time i was moderating the DrownedMadonna forum (Madonna Fanzine forum). My nickname was Preston and i had that pic with the giant boombox for those who remember ahah. So, there was that israeli girl, Anna Hendstridge (i'm talking about the real one, not the fakes clones that appeared on other forums later). She was totally working inside M creative circle. She was giving exact and precise clues about music, videos, shooting several weeks before they would happen. I'm talking about real info, this could be the exact lyrics of a line of the Celebration track when no one knew she had recorded a new track for the best off, she would describe the exact jewellery M would wear on the civer of her new album etc etc... That was some serious shit. To this day, she remains the best insider that has ever been on the Madonna community. She also told us eatly in the process that M had record early versions of Give it 2 me, like one called "Infinity" and describing the precise sound of the demo. When the "Infinity" demo leaked way later, she was, as usual excatly spot on. Anna is the one who told us about a first video for "Give it 2 me" being shot during a shoot where M was on a tread mill and wearing blue sweat pants. At that time the unreleased shoot hadn't leaked. A couple of years later, the unreleased pics leaked and indeed there was a shoot where M was on a tread mill wearing blue sweat pants. Now about the first Give it 2 me snippets, i had been given by Anna Hendstridge herself. She told me precise indications as to how to leak them, one by one etc... She told me they have been recorded on a phone during that video shoot. (I precise that was way before M shot the Give it 2 me video we all know dlrected by Tom Munro). I will never in my whole life doubt anything that girl told, everything she said was precisely spot one. Now for those who were not around at that time i can understand you can be doubtul and it's only natural, but those who were on Fanzine at that time know what i'm talking about. She wasn't posting much, but when she was, believe me, it was something. We would spy her every move on the forum, every single world she could post 😂 That was something...
You must keep in mind that the Hard Candy schedule, especially we M got close to the release, was not the classic process. Many changes of directions visually, change of title, changes on the face lol. All that at the end of the process ! The album was to be called Give it 2 me, she has made several photoshoots, then she scrapps everything, all the photoshoots ( supposedly cause she hates the way she looks, and it's true that the styling makes her look wash out), change the title of the album, pick just a few pics for the promo (she doesn't have enough time left to make new shoots, so she picks like two or three pics for "Dazed and confused" and "Interview" Magazines. Scrapps the Give it 2 me title (and the music video of the same title) and comes with the title (Hard Candy). Until the end, it was all last minutes changes.
Ps : for those interested, that girl Anna Hendstridge also revealed back then, that three different versions of the track "Give it 2 me" do exist, one is the released one, another one called "Infinity" that have leaked since then, and another one called "Get pumped" (still unleaked to this day).
She has totally diseappeared after the Celebration best of release. At that time the forum also closed. By the end, a few people, probably jealous or angry started attacking her, trying to prove she wasn't a girl and that she lied on her personnal life (not being a girl, not living she she said she lived etc...). They couldn't attack her on her info cause everything was spot on so they've found something else. Later there have been fake 'Annq Hendstidge" accounts being made on various forums like PopJustuce etc but they were fake and so posting fake info... Some people still confuse her with this fake accounts to this day. The one and only real was posting on DrownedMadonna/Madonnafanzine forum around 2007-2008.
You are Preston ????
I remember you but I didn't know you were french.

CONFIRMED: Anitta confirms in an interview that she'll be at Madonna's concert and will miss the Met Gala for it.
Who wouldn't do the same!? When the Queen calls, you run to her
But it's not the same day. There's even rumors saying that Madonna will be at the MET Gala.
