She is everywhere!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Working really hard for the money....I will treat her right.

If anyone complains......I will stop being nice. This is phenomenal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree. I love that performance. As for the 'off-key' bits I do forgive the Queen. There are a lot of performances loaded on YouTube that will give me a lot of reasons to do so. Including this Mother and Father performance that is just so spot-on and one of my favorites. I am loving the Madonna Week on Ellen.

Just got this from boyculture.com: You've heard of If you can't beat 'em, join 'em? Welp, Madonna's “Ghosttown†video will co-star Terrence Howard, star of Empire...the franchise whose soundtrack is all but certain to be #1 on the Billboard 200 tomorrow, one notch above her Rebel Heart. Will be great to see Madonna have an actual co-star in a video, not just some hot body to fill space. Seems to imply it will be a real video, not a photo shoot that somebody filmed. Can't wait. ...waiting is the hardest thing.

Rating : 7.6 Paste Magazine http://www.pastemagazine.com/articles/2015/03/madonna-rebel-heart-review.html These moments when Madonna feels the need to again pronounce her validity are noteworthy, since she’s spent most of her career setting the curve. On one hand it brings out a welcome vulnerability to the artist and her music. Then again it’s Madonna, bitch—she doesn’t need to explain anything.

I live in the Philippines and this happened. I called a radio station. Me: I want to request for Living For Love by Madonna DJ: Sorry not in our playlist. Me: Why? DJ: Our listeners are young and we need to give them the songs they want to hear. Me: (Ouch!) But I want to hear Madonna's song DJ: Sorry...but the only new songs added to our list were Zedd and Selena (their new song) and Ariana's One Last Time. Me: Okay, thanks. I called another station Me: I want to request for Living For Love by Madonna DJ: Sorry we don't have that. Me: No Madonna in the playlist? DJ: Unfortunately sir. Me: Why? You know she has an album out right? You're playing Paul McCartney. DJ: But he is with Rihanna. I hope you don't get offended. I like her song but Madonna's too old for our station. It really does exist. :(

No rating. http://popinsomniacs.com/2015/03/madonna-rebel-heart-album-review-exciting-eclectic-pop-from-its-champion/ Thankfully, these duds are more infinitely skippable than before, making the hits stand out bright and bold, in an album that sees Madonna defined by her humanity, infusing some warmth into these tracks that is oft sorely missed in pop music. Yes, she might have been flung off the stage at the BRITs but she’s still a queen of modern music, one who knows how to dust herself off, make us dance, and keep the party going.

What’s that song saying? It’s kind of a social commentary about the way everybody hooks up now and the lack of intimacy. When I made my “Sex†book I was being incredibly ironic, but I was also saying, “Look, it’s not only a man’s place to objectify a woman -- a woman can objectify herself too.†In the song “S.E.X.,†when I do the sort of rap in the middle and I do the list, I made myself sound like I have a lisp. Go back and listen to it. It’s meant to be ironic -- even though there’s some very handy items on that list. “Holy Water†does that a little bit too. The double entendres are so over the top. At this point all my songs about sex have to be tongue in cheek. There’s no other way I can approach it. Since exploring sexuality has been such a big part of my career as an artist, I felt like I wanted to address it, but almost from a voyeuristic way, like I’m on the outside looking in. Love this part of the interview.

6/10 http://www.spin.com/reviews/madonna-rebel-heart/ As Tina Fey would no doubt point out, it's far too late for Madonna's career to attempt a Meryl Streep-like third act, where she gracefully flits between gigs, stunning with grace and professionalism and proving the role model for all younger aspirants. Madonna's Rebel Heart is actually much closer to that of former VMAs combatant Courtney Love, a Bad Girl who has alienated casual fans over the years with her unwillingness to age out of her brattiness, but is beloved by her more rabid fans for just that reason. If she's going down, she's gonna go down bitching.

http://www.vulture.com/2015/03/madonna-sounds-currentand-empty-on-rebel-heart.html Even worse is the deeply unsexy “S.E.X.,†which culminates in a free-association rap: “Chopsticks, underwear, bar of soap, dental chair.†Unintentionally funny, it sounds like something written to be played in Stefon’s new favorite club. - Obviously...the reviewer will now take that back now that M mentioned in an interview that she sang (or rapped) the verses with an intentional lisp. It was intentional sister. Deal.

3.5/5 http://www.vox.com/2015/3/10/8182469/madonna-rebel-heart What Madonna does on Rebel Heart is remind listeners she is fully aware of how old she is by being honest about her sexuality and unabashed in her overblown claims.

No rating provided http://www.bostonglobe.com/arts/music/2015/03/09/madonna-rebel-heart/zjQ7dPyEVcrKOKPjzgs8GO/story.html?p1=Article_InThisSection_Bottom "After months of leaks and speculation, “Rebel Heart†finally arrives on Tuesday, and it is a strong, welcome detour in the artist’s recent discography. Or just call it a return to form since the album is her most satisfying effort in a decade and nimbly connects the dots between Madonna’s various eras and guises. It works on many levels because it allows Madonna to be the most dynamic character of all, the one she repressed on her previous three studio albums of jittery dance-pop that felt desperate to be viable. Madonna gets to be herself on these new songs, exposing a vulnerability and sincerity we arguably haven’t heard from her since 1998’s “Ray of Light.â€

Grade: C http://www.cleveland.com/entertainment/index.ssf/2015/03/madonnas_rebel_heart_is_defian.html "Perhaps, the album's most interesting song is "Holy Water," which finds Madonna copying what Lady Gaga was doing seven years ago (which is sort of like Madonna copying herself)."

3/4 (L.A. Times) http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/music/posts/la-et-ms-madonna-rebel-heart-review-20150308-column.html "Nor can you live your creative life in front of millions without giving yourself whiplash every once in a while. The difference between pop agitators like Madonna and her lesser offspring is one of determination. “Rebel Heart,†like its creator, pushes through the pain and, more often than not, lands solidly and with great grace on its feet."

http://time.com/3735645/review-madonna-rebel-heart/ "There are albums where it’s been difficult to remember that Madonna is a real person and not just a figurehead, a concept, a lightning rod. That’s not the case with Rebel Heart: it has surprising gravity, and doubles as a portrait of a lion approaching the winter of a career without precedent. It’s the realest, and the best, Madonna has sounded in quite some time." - Time Magazine
