Roland Barthes

It should be aknowledged that the first proper lenghty interview she did for her first british cover was by Tennant for Smash Hits. My favourite PSB production for another artist is Eight Wonder's I'm not scared. I wish they'd release the full set of demos they did for their first album with Bobby Orlando.

He didn't say (on FG radio while promoting his previous book) though if it always was intended as a duet or if the lyrics always were about Medellin.

I wish this was world's and anyone's first problem, sadly it's very far from it unless this really is your problem in life then you have no problem in life.

So they are trying to use her for publicity. A judge can fine them for being abusively procedural. Do they know that ? They are a firm, they should.

He totally pushed to get the spot of pre show djaying and she said no.

I hope there will be sex and exposed genitalias especially if my two favourite brazilian pornstars are involved, Samuel Decker & Grande Simoes.

Intervista ? New interview ?

What i meant is Portugal is not just fado, especially Lisbon (i know cuz my mom is from Lisbon and i go there quite often since birth) there's a huge brazilian community and since they've had all these brazilian telenovelas for decades it kind of influenced the language and culture. There's an ancient chinese and indian communities from the colonial era. Now, musically there's this huge electro house scene as well. Of course the biggest influence is the african diaspora from portuguese colonies, cabo verde being one but there's Mozambique too. Lisbon being a port like New York, it is a mix of all that transited through it. She also referenced northern Africa culture with gnawa on Come Alive since Portugal and Spain was under arab control for 200 years (maures) and its influence is still there in the names of cities or regions (basically everything that starts with Al), azulejos and how houses are painted. So it's cohesive to have all these influences because that's where she was and was experiencing, she's not randomly going from one style to another. When she anounced she was writing songs for the album she posted the picture of ceramics representing a colossus of Rhodes that looked uncanny like her, being at the crossroads of various continents and said something about a different point of view. So knowing Lisbon, Madame X is indeed a Lisbon album, a photographic moment of where it was in 2019 at least. The idea for Madame X came after, suggested by Jeremy Scott when she asked him his advice when she wondered how she was going to justify this styles hoping when she should have not stretched herself that much and just had to explain Lisbon. To me it is more interesting than the concept of being many women in one, influenced by the resurgence of feminism brought by the metoo movement, which is another idea she threw in the mix on top other concepts. Too many concepts. And Detroit, like its name suggests, is another port city at the confluence of other countries which use to be a huge commerce exchanging place. So she had that link within her, especially since she was born in Bay City. The original version is much slower (Mirwais spoke about it).

LAV is when she became a superstar BAT is when she became an icon so i'll go for icon.

Is he married ? He would be perfect for her.

I think the X in Madame X refers to Portugal being at the center of the world in the past, it was central to triangular trade and when Colombus went to colonize the world and boats went to asia, south & north america....Madonna's concepts are always confused but this may explain why we go from Portugal to south America to Asia and Africa...and the covers are her mothers : her real mother and her art mothers : frida Kahlo and Martha Graham...another concept within the concept. It's like she can't focus anymore since Rebel Heart, it's like she wants to put too much in one project. It's something i've also witnessed on the Celebration tour. She needs a better editor.

That's what she said though. She chose Kurt for his nose. It was a tie with another rockstar but she wanted her kids to have his nose. If you read what she said over the years it's total insanity. It was in Behind The Music on MTV. A note by Cobain was found 20 years after his death in which he trashed her but she said she wrote it herself.... She accused Dave Grohl of having made a move on Frances Bean. She said she snorts Kurt's ashes....it goes on and on...

Courtney Love namedropping to get attention. Nothing new there. It's her brand. It used to be Gwen Stefani when she was popular. Courtney Love is such a toxic person her mother abandonned her to go live abroad with her other kids, her father hated her so much he launched and entertained the rumour about her having had Kurt killed, her daughter left her to go live with her paternal grandmother and her husband chose death over her. And all her past collaborators and friends have falling out with her. She has not released a good album in 30 years. The last decent one was in 1998. For someone who was always bragging about authenticity and posers, she's the biggest poser ever. She did that putrid solo album and tried to attach herself to The Strokes, THE rock band at the time, who did not care (even when her ex buddy Drew Barrymore was dating a member of the band). Then she did these beautiful rehab demos with Billy Corgan and Linda Perry but she did not want to share credits with them, Alan McGee wanted to relese the album but backed out because of this. So she tried to self release it on the internet via a Tampax sponsorship on their website but credits were asked again so she removed it. She finally decided to rework them with Marilyn Manson's producer and totally destroyed their beauty to release a fake Hole album with them but Hole without Eric Erlandson is nothing and she had a fall out with him for the same reason she's faing out with everybody, she's a two faced (even thousand if you count plastic surgery) backstabbing psycho. That's when i stopped being a huge fan, the ball dropped. Sw her at Le Bataclan, she could not sing anymore, she could not play guitar, she was not even drunk or high, she was pathetic, a fallen icon left without all the artifice brought in by people she sucked the life off. She was trying to strum her guitar and kept missing chords, watching them, then the voice was hoarse like a deaf drunken sailor. Her band, young men in designer grunge like clothes, looked like amateurs from Beverly High. The music was gone, the king was naked, what we had left was a professional widow living off her husband's money, doing interviews to namedrop labels she wears, famous people she knows and the wonderful things they say about her "Oh Michael Stipe always says i'm..." and relevant people of the moment she trashes to get attention, just before Swift and after Gwen Stefani, it was Katy Perry. She's not feminist, she attacks other women whom are more popular than she'll ever be. She was like that i high school already when she looked like the fat blonde kid from Family Ties. Now she hangs out with Kris Jenner and licks Elon Musk's ass. The BBC gave her a serie for unknown reasons, maybe an old fan from the 90's is programming. She's talked about women in music who inspired her but she's mostly talking about herself, about how Marlon Brando could be her grandpa. She talks about these brilliant women as a way to level with them, like a vampire, basking in their glory. She's not in their league. She's in no league. She's a junkie with too much money and ego. Only people who know nothing about punk rock and rock n roll would give her the time of the day. She' s a celebrity who used to have a band. There's no Courtney Love interview, EVER, where she does not name drops or talks about fashion labels. Real punk rocker are Kim Gordon (who hates her guts) Kim Deal, girls from L7, Bikini Kill, girls from the band she joined before Hole, Babes in Toyland (the one Madonna wanted to sign on Maverick not Courtney on her own) she tried to run and they fired her (just line Faith No More did) after years of hanging out around rock bands, trying to fuck her way in the music industry, harrassing Trent Reznor and Axl Rose, she finally found a sexually confused soft man she could use her way and manipulate, his nose was what made him the winner over Billy Corgan becuse she wnted to sire a child and did not want it to inherit the schnozer her father gave her. She used to be Lana Del Rey biggest fan and friend, posed with her, used her in the press to be relevant to a younger audience but i guess, from what she says about her in this interview, it's over. She also says Debbie Harry was just pretty which is sexist when Harry is a brilliant lyricist that is outrageously overlooked because of sexism. And Madonna never trusted her, Courtney litterally stalked her, was obsessed with her, Kurt said it, Christopher Ciccone said it, Madonna said it, Courtney said it. Especially after Kurt died, she used to call Madonna for advices then turned on her. She tried to bed Guy O. desperately. Madonna simply ignores her because she can't be trusted. Courtney fumed because she ignored her at Tears of a Clown at Art Basel. So yeah, a long essay because i used to be a fan and then one day i realized Courtney Love was an empty shell. But i still dig Pretty on the Inside and Live through this is a major album in music history, Celebrity Skin was half good with great singles. She did not deserve to be vilified and have this horrible rumour about killing Kurt, especially when she was grieving and grieving under the public eye. But she's not a good person and she's not a great artist. She used to be a great celebrity though but her usual tricks are old now and irrelevant to the times.
