    "Extreme occident" has influences from Indian music. Madonna said that this was another reference to Portugal, as some parts of India were also part of the Portuguese empire.

    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).

    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.

    Lately, Madonna has demonstrated that she is dissatisfied with the Brazilian public. I think the sponsors want some adjustments that she is not willing to make.

    besides, BOB is not known around here. RuPaul's Drag Race is only known in the LGBT community (and even then, it's a bit of an indie thing). But PAbllo Vittar is known by everyone.

    Because of the huge audience. In other countries, it was a paid show in an arena, so it already filtered the audience (they would be Madonna fans who probably know English) in addition to the fact that they were shows in Europe and North America, where a lot of people know English. In Brazil, few people know English beyond the basics.
    BOB won't be able to warm up the audience by speaking in English. Pabllo could do it, maybe he'll even replace BOB most of the time (with the exception of Bitch I'm madonna/ Celebration)

    Let us talk the reality. 
    People were robbed inside the venue at Sticky & Sweet and MDNA Tour in Rio de Janeiro. Imagine at FREE open place.
    Brazil 2023 - 40.000 violent murders. The "regular" murders are not included in this total. Rio de Janeiro it is the on the top the list with almost 4.000 violent murders 2023 and continues to increase. That is 10 murders a day. 
    This Madonna Concert in Brazil it is so much wrong in so many levels that it is a shame see Madonna involve in this.
    The Itaú bank is so corrupt, openly, and directly involve with the organised crime (disguised as political party) that in Brazil called government, co-work with FARC. 
    I cold going on and on.
    She is being paid with dirty and bloody money. She does not need this, and this is a big shame.

    So now Madonna and Peso Pluma are following each other on Instagram 😪
    Peso Pluma is one of the most hated/loved Mexican singers due that his lyrics elevate drug cartels and violence by making apology of crime. Not to mentioned that his music style is often related to narco. 
     
    It’d be disappointing  to see her working with those kind of “artists”, but sadly I see this happening.

    extreme reacted to Roland Barthes in Mirwais will release a book about Madonna & him   
    He's actually promoting the first tome of a trilogy about his work. Now it's about Taxi Girl, his first band. The second tome will be about himself and the third one about Madonna. No trash talk there, when asked about her during the promo he's always praising her, when reminded he said she drove him crazy during the recording of Confessions so he left, he was quick to say that he was the one having a meltdown and  needed mental help then  but she treated him the best one could considering his breakdown. He alsi added that people have the wrong impression of her and they would be surprised to know how real and funny she is and he wants to get the record straight. It will also be about the music business.
    And he does not know about his new album. Sorry Kylie fans, and to torture you even more, he said he has two tracks with her but does not know if they are gonna be released since he may record totally new stuff. The reason why he does not release stuff is because he believes streaming fucks the artists, the Madonna tome will be about this too.

    So everyone knows, the show Bob had on the 5th in LA is no longer listed on his site. I believe it was moved to the 6th. So he’s obviously doing Rio.

    Sexual repression and never having success on any gay sauna, can make those kind of childish desires... The sad thing is this person doesn't know what Grindr is, and has to come to a Madonna forum to vomit this bullshit everyday from 5 different profiles at least, like if it is an echo chamber. And also talking about the brazilians boys like sexual objects, wich is also very unrespectful. 
    It was funny at the beginning with the 'truly' thing, but actions are coming a little late (wich I can't understand, tbh). Now it's out of control. I don't know who is talking here with a real opinion or talking shit anymore.
