This ultimately is why people watermark their work. This is done by the INSANELY talented @madonnapackaged on instagram.

I mean even Madame X went to number one....lol

Lol you cannot tell me that that song wouldn't fit completely perfect on MDNA.

I mean those ARE her origins lol she is pretty boring and I think some of her earlier songs like BoomClap were cute but sound like Gwen Stefani rejects. She's alot like Lady Gaga in that sense where her music is basic but a small portion of gays think they're better than what they are and find others who agree and all of a sudden they think just because they're at meme status that that must mean everyone thinks they're great.

Well, that's what her music sounds like anyway. Bad electro pop from 2013. Those heavy basslines with her girlie screaming voice... Yawnn... Reminds me of the era of "Fancy" from Iggy Azalea, but at least that song was good and most of all it was 2014...

But she's british! But i guess its hard to party at 16 when all you're eating are beans on toast.

Her music sounds like what idiotic white american 16 girls would jam to in a party in a bad after-noon tv movie from 2013. Glad it's not famous her in France...

I mean it was Diplo then he brought in SOPHIE who i consider to be the first hyperpop artist, correct me if I'm wrong. Charli was always just pop and this new album i really do not understand the hysteria or uniqueness everyone sees. One of the songs even sounds like a david guetta song. Whats interesting is say for example if Madonna chose to do a hyperpop song or album this moment people would say she's just hopping on the trend when in reality she really brought it to the mainstream 10 years ago. I would even say BloodDiamonds (now BloodPOP) is also hyperpop to an extent. Anyway, glad this is just a rumor.

Overdramatic? Moi? Baby, you must have confused me for the FIFTEEN PLUS PARAGRAPH RANT above me. 💋 

Goldfrapp did that as well for the Supernature tour.  Obviously it wasnt soundboard and not the best quality but you could literally buy a copy walking out of the same show. I think i downloaded a copy of the Brighton show where they performed Lovely 2 C U since they would kinda change the setlist around 

This thread is so bizarre lol 

I mean i don't think that ad is a reference to any particular Marilyn or Madonna shoot but obv Iconic is a callback to the Oscars and i get it, it's about putting her as an icon on a pedestal and her falling off it especially given the context of the song so while I think it's boring i understand it. The V shoot just looks like they ran out of ideas especially Madonna is waaaaay older than Marilyn was so it's sort of been there done that and she got the most out of what she could in the early half of her career. I thought Madame X was ridiculous as well and paint by numbers. It would be interesting if she referenced old hollywood stars that suffered ageism and misogyny in their older years like Joan Crawford, Bette Davis, Ingrid Bergman, Marlene Dietrich etc. Heck, if she wants something weird and 50s get David Lynch to do something with her! Blue Velvet is definitely something she should've referenced for Madame X.
I am curious if Brigitte Lin in Chungking Express was an inspiration however....

Remember hyperventilating when they used video footage of this shoot when they used it in teaser.

Lol stahp. Us c*nts have to stick together.

100% One of her all-time worst. They've clearly run out of ideas.

SK and M have so many great projects together, but I think you mentioned my favorites too. I wish we had more official photos of her in the red dress on Rolling Stone, I never understood why they only released the photo on the cover...
I LOVE the colors on COAD photoshoot.


I also love her "red hair" in the album booklet, it's a very good color edit and already iconic.
The equestrian shoot you mentioned is one of the greatest. I will forever have chills hearing the first seconds of Future Lovers on Confessions Tour. What an opening!

IMO her best shoot period. I wish we got more outtakes!

Not sure but I've heard that since the movie came out. Of course some rumors are gonna just be flat out untrue.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Stop staring blindly at anniversary dates. You're only setting yourselves up for disappointment.
Lots of landmark albums by other artists were not reissued on any anniversary:
Howard Jones: Dream Into Action.
Originally released on 11th of March, 1985. Deluxe box set released on 30th of November, 2018
George Michael: Faith.
Originally released on the 2nd of November, 1987. Deluxe box set released on 31st of January, 2011
Bruce Springsteen: Darkness On The Edge Of Town.
Originally released on the 2nd of June, 1978. Deluxe box set released on 16th of November, 2010.
The list goes on and on.  
The fun little EP:s that Madonna releases, Who's That Girl 35th Anniversary, and the 20th anniversary remix of American Life is not the same as putting a big deluxe edition together. 
Now IF Inside The Groove was correct when he said that Madonna worked on the reissue project a few months ago, that tells me that it's cooking, but not ready yet. Or maybe it's in pre-production? Who knows?
Some say that she's had years to put everything together, but it's not like putting together a mixtape. Just look at the Prince boxes. There is ALOT of work behind them, and it took a LONG time to get them done.
