Madonna

What's with the eye patch, and all the show cancellations. Just wondering.

Forgot about the virus thing, stupid of me. But that patch, odd.

Eye patch is whacky stuff trying to generate some publicity, I think.

https://www.today.com/popculture/madonna-explains-eye-patch-meaning-behind-madame-x-persona-t156290

Quote:
Madonna has reinvented herself countless times throughout her legendary career, but her newest persona — Madame X — may be the first of hers that's purposefully mysterious.

The 60-year-old superstar opened up to TODAY's Harry Smith about the inspiration for the complex character behind her new "Madame X" album — and why she wears that beguiling eye patch.

"She's a spy. She's a secret agent. She travels the world. She changes her identity. She sleeps with one eye open. And she travels through the day with one eye shut. She's actually been wounded. So she's covering up one of her eyes," the Grammy winner explained.

I wonder if France is running low on healthcare workers to administer HPV vaccines and just asked Ms. Ciccone to stay home.

Amazon

Amazon has 4 packs of patches for $10, if anyone was thinking of going that route. Just install one at a time though, ya know for safety sake. You'll look cool though I bet. I might try it, maybe. I could use some cool.

My opinion, not supported by management or advertisers of this station...

She did an amazing job at extending her 15 min of fame to 30+ min, but time is a cruel bitc..., hmm, mistress.

She was very good at grabbing the spotlight whenever she wanted it.
Buy she is having to work much harder for it lately, and the adoring crowds aren't as big, or as loyal.

All of us are in the same boat.

As Mick and I always said, time waits for no one.

I'd still hit it. I mean, with big blue helping.

She's not in bad shape for 61 but I've never liked her "attitude".
Lots of people have sued her over they years and if you look into the details of their claims they basically accuse her of using people to get were she is. None of them amounted to much (she paid them to go away) but still it makes you think. How did/does she treat the people that worked for her?

FWIW: Will Smith has a full time legal team because he gets sued about 6 times a year.

This is a documentary about the professional dancers that were in her "Truth or Dare" film and world tour - 1990.
Two of the dancers sued her years later. She was invited to appear in this documentary but chose not to.

....a paper bag, preferably body length, would be better.

Personally I detested her, her music and almost everything that has spewed from her mouth.....so frankly just as happy she has been cancelled

Never did understand why anyone would be attracted to her. Made some okay pop music 30 or 40 years ago that I did not care for.
