highlights:
 
 
Madonna and Trump
Foley was planning to shoot a scene in front of Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue, and Donald Trump apparently stipulated that he wanted a paparazzo shot with her in hopes of making the New York Post. Madonna initially refused, launching years of scorn directed at the real-estate cheat. (“He’s a wimp,” she told Interview in 1990 when asked about his budding presidential prospects.) But Foley insisted, knowing that Warner Bros. had already negotiated access to the building. “It was one of those moments where I had to say, ‘You gotta do this,’” he says. “I don’t think she made eye contact with him.”
 
Madonna considered for Ruthless People
“At that dinner, we were all mesmerized by her,” Jerry says. It would have been an opportunity for Madonna to go over-the-top, to kick and scream and scheme. But something didn’t click. The audience needed to believe her husband hated her, and Madonna showed too much charm to drive a man away. Plus, at 27, she still seemed a bit young to play a housewife. Eventually, everyone agreed it wasn’t the right fit.
 
Madonna and Spike Lee
After the back-to-back bombs Body of Evidence and Dangerous Game, casting Madonna wasn’t exactly in vogue. “I didn’t give a fuck,” Lee says. “She’s who I had in mind, and she wanted to do it, so that was it. She’s a pro.” Ever since, they’ve had a symbiotic back-and-forth. Madonna’s team gave Lee a discount on a couple of Ray of Light tracks he wanted to use in his Netflix adaptation of She’s Gotta Have It, and he gave her feedback on the script for the since-canned biopicthat she was going to direct about herself. Lee says she also gave him a friendly talking-to when his son, Jackson, was apparently pursuing Madonna’s daughter, Lourdes. “She said, ‘Spike, your son is bothering my daughter,’” Lee laughs
 
Chicago
Weinstein also floated the idea of casting Janet Jackson, Poster says, but it never went anywhere. Imagine Chicago starring Janet and Madonna!
 
Image change for Evita
“We had this really candid conversation with Liz Rosenberg,” says a former Disney marketing executive, referring to Madonna’s former longtime publicist, “and said, ‘She’s going to have to transform over the next year.’ If you go back and look at what she wore to public events, she was sort of buttoned-up. Liz saw the wisdom in an image shift.”
According to Peter Adee, another Disney marketing veteran, Madonna was one step ahead of Rosenberg. She understood that softening the reputation that Sexand the R-rated album Erotica had given her a few years earlier was essential to winning over highbrow Hollywood types, especially because gossip hounds were calling her first pregnancy a PR stunt. (“Some people have suggested that I have done this for shock value,” she said. “These are comments only a man would make. It’s much too difficult to be pregnant and bring a child into this world to do it for whimsical or provocative reasons.”) Disney sold Evita as an elegant love story above all else, and Madonna partnered with fashion brands like Bloomingdale’s, Dior, Ferragamo, and Estée Lauder for in-store displays and cosmetic lines that gave the campaign an upscale sheen. She weighed in on every detail. Forever indebted to the Old Hollywood luminaries she idolized, Madonna remade herself the way Elizabeth Taylor would have. “There are times in advertising where you wink, wink, nod, nod — you make fun of it,” Addee says, referring to Madonna’s spotty acting résumé. “We never did. We sold it as Evita starring Madonna, basically saying, ‘This is something new.’”

I'm really worried about her guys something isn't right. The late starts, ICU episode, bandaging of her leg, the case that lots of people are saying the setlist doesn't feel finalised and last minute and at points she looks lost. My Heart is breaking seeing her like this. I was going to get a ticket in December to see her but I don't think I can. It might just be me worried but I mentioned in a post in another thread she should of just cancelled the tour this year and then rearranged for next year. I know it would of pissed people off but quite frankly I think she needed more time to recover and get the show in order.

Great remix, thanks for sharing !

'Tis the season to be baddies!
MATERIAL GWORLLLLLLLL! had dropped literally almost a week ago and to this day, I can't get it out of my head. However, it has been requested that an edit without Ms. Saucy Santana is to be made so without further ado, I present to you:
MATERIAL GWORLLLLLLLL!: The Pink Diamond Remix with Saweetie, Megan Thee Stallion and City Girls!

It was quite a challenge to do it but hey, it was all worth it and the result is amazing. Big thanks to @Alpha and @Frank for requesting this.
It is now yours to have. Go get it, feel your oats and be a material gworl who breaks the vogue!

EDITING NOTES:
I filtered out Saucy Santana, leaving only Madonna's vocals by doing a phase cancellation process using the explicit version and the clean version of the song. I then used the Dolby Atmos track ripped by @Madame X , specifically the front channel mix, to fill in the "I'm a material girl" parts in the chorus and the "materials and serials, bitch" ending since the front channel mix has them with Madonna's vocals only. For the rest, I used the following songs for the verses and chorus:
Dipped In Ice by Saweetie Do It On The Tip by Megan Thee Stallion and City Girls I used the acapella from those songs, ripped using an AI online stem separator and changed the speed so that they match the BPM of the instrumental. I also applied what @Jorick suggested and used acapella parts from Material Girl onto the remix to complete the track, using the Immaculate Collection Q-sound mix to extract the acapella since it sounds clearer than the album version. She still sounds drunk but she sounds clearer this time. 

I have found it interesting to hear some inconsistencies in some of her stories as well, but I also know she has far more memories of a specific moment than we've witnessed.  She has to filter through multiple rehearsals, behind the scenes antics and so on, while we just have that one specific moment.  Sure, we can ask her to go back and watch the performance or whatever, but what do we know that proves she may haven't thought a certain way that changes what we saw unraveling?  As for the first VMA performance, it very well be true she was looking for her shoes (in her mind).  She obviously kicked her shoes off for a reason, so it's possible one or both were starting to slip off.  Anyway, I"m not worried too much of her giving us inconsistencies because I don't think those things add up to much to the final outcome.  So what if she tells it as if she's looking for her shoes or the shoes slipped off.  Still won't change the fact she was rolling around on the floor, exposing her ass cheek to the world back in the day that things like that didn't happen on Primetime TV.  I think, over all, she's going to give us the goods with this Biopic.  I'm sure she's going to share so much that we don't know that will make us forget of any of the inconsisitencies that we may find. I don't think it's worth to worry about this and think that is going to make the film bomb!  I have confindence she will direct a great film about herself.  After all, she's been at the helm of her whole career, so who else better than her should tell her story and direct those actors to portray her in the way she sees fit? 

I love her gap. I have one too and it's fun to play with it with one's tongue. Her teeth are *not* ugly, and she hasn't whitened them either to the extenct that they look like a whole new set.

The thing is, the more people bitch about anything she chooses to do, the more she does it. Everyone should know that by now

oh STFU it's an unflattering angle with her chin down. Yes she's fillered up and we know sh'e done a lot of work on her face but stop being a drama fuck, amplifying the bullshit. Jesus fkn Christ.

Performing "Future" last year! It was so weird and felt wrong for this event. I wish she had done something more fun and light. 

WTF?
