Madonna Celebration Tour: Graham Norton's Next Morning Reaction 😍

[@Timur_aka_Tamerlane]

She looked amazing and served out all the hits. Madonna is a legend.

[@pophybrid]

The show is like a museum in the form of pop concert, celebrating the iconography of Madonnas career. The Erotica segment and Bedtime Story performance are definite highlights for diehard fans.

She still touches the lives of younger generations as well. Im 17, almost 18 and already got tickets to see her in Chicago. Im contemplating getting tickets to see her both nights there right now but tickets arent cheap. My first time seeing her was during the Madame X Tour for my 14th birthday. She's one of the last truely talented legends still alive and Im so grateful I get to experience her genius talent and artistic expression. I wish more people from my generation knew about and recognized her talent and didnt care about her age, so they could enjoy one of the last music legends still with us.

@@fabianabartos5243 What was kinda wierd for me was that she wore it just in 1 leg, woulda been better if she wore protection on both knees... it woulda looked better, but she rocked anyways

[@Arnoldego]

The obsession is because “they” really want to see her destroyed/defeated, “dead”. They haven’t been able to break her for all these years, cuz she represents a threat to society as a strong, independent, powerful, unapologetic smart woman who follows her own rules and doesn’t care what people says about her. Madonna is the right way of history and that’s not really appealing to “them” cuz she “has to be behave” the way they think women should behave. No matter what good she does, they will always talk about her appearance, her age, her love affairs, how untalented or “rude” she is, focusing on one small thing and forgetting the rest. Cuz that’s more appealing to the narrative of a successful powerful woman being a Cvnt than a woman who people should admire.

I am glad to see Madonna is finally thanking us fans. For so many years her act was looking down on people (the poor guy who gave her flowers she didn’t like) or asking questions she didn’t think were intelligent. She always lived like she was better than us. Then she started to age (like all of us) and almost died (like we all will). I stocked up on Ciccone wine a few weeks ago and will toast a glass to her today because day drinking is semi-rebellious too.

When her celebration tour videos started to spread around YT, I saw a lot of bad comments such as "she's too old to be XYZ", "what has she done to her face", etc. I just went to her DC day1 concert, and wow, I really enjoyed it. Stage design, the sound (love the bass!), the projection, the journey, fans were standing, singing along and dancing most of the time. Some of us got tired and needed to sit down for a little bit half way through (and we have no right to call her old! How did she do it with that energy?!) Love the ending with 27 Dresses movie -esque presentation.

She's a Woman, She's Old, She's Crazy, She has botox, She can't sing, She doesn't play the instruments....The haters will always find anything to dismiss her instead of focus on the genius she is and that's because they don't feel comfortable with anyone who still stands exactly because she was the first woman to be different from others in the music industry by free expressing her points of views and personality without caring for approval of others, the first to stay "old" and still want to work and create art, that's why she is always paying a price, because she is PIONEER, INOVATIVE, UNIQUE, FIGHT LABELS, PUSH BUTTONS. For a man to be like that was always normal on the music industry but she is a woman, she should be quiet on her place and not to be interventive and express her opinions and above all never, never try to be on a place that was always and only reserved for men and objectifying men like they did objectifying woman on their music videos since then, how dare you Madonna? Men always liked to be on command and that's why they are afraid of her...That's the reason why she is a LIVING LEGEND, A MYTH, AN ICON, THE ONLY LIVING SUPERSTAR WHICH STILL REMAINS, and was named the QUEEN (of pop). Come on guys give her a break and let her continue her artistic and genius career while she is still alive, one day when she won't be with us people will notice her importance in History, but I guess it is always like that, you must lost someone important to know his real VALUE. That's why I'm always thinking how fortunate we are to have the privilege every single day to have her still among with us while she is ALIVE AND KICKING. For me Madonna is the definition of WOMAN and will always be until I die. Sometimes I think as a Madonna huge fan she really don't have the best voice in the world comparing with other singers nor is the best dancer nor is the best this or the best that and for me this is even more the reason why she is my favourite artist of all time, because with all this "limitations" she remains above other great artists on a timeline because she has PERSONALITY, CHARISMA, STYLE, INTELEGENCY and applies that on her artistic path and surpasses herself constantly, from others we can only say: "ok great voice this artist have, this singer is so pretty and sexy,..." we only appreciate them by their technical and physical skills, but with Madonna is different we appreciate her by some of this same skills but as WHOLE, as a PERSONALITY. Everytime she bring us a new record or concert she impregnate her unique strong sincere personality on it remaining coherent with her beliefs and convictions and that's why I think people still follow and respect her. She's BEATIFUL on her own way and I am not only speaking physically which she was of course more when she was younger but she is even more beautiful as time goes by because beauty is not only what you see outside but what you perception the others give you from inside and on this Madonna is the most beatiful person in the world and History because she is such a beatiful soul and human being inside. For any reason singers like Whitney, Mariah, Janet, Britney, Beyonce, Rihanna that stood for her great voices or style/beauty comparing to Madonna never accomplished what Madonna is and done (and I'm not saying I don't like those artists) because she has that "It" factor, a "je ne sais quoi", a MAGIC MYSTERY that no one can explain but that's why she is a MYTHICAL (LIVING) LEGEND in HISTORY. Many things have been said about this woman in the past and will always continue in the present and future because we want to explain and guess who is this person and woman/human being which is always defying us. She is LOVED and HATED, but the geniuses and myths were always like that, loved for some and hated by others, the true ARTISTS AND GENIUSES were always like that originating debate because they were DIFFERENT. Today to dismiss Madonna is kind of trendy but Madonna is ETERNAL like all LEGENDS are so as time goes by and as fashions move on she will stay UNTOUCHABLE and IMMORTAL as one of the most SINGULAR human beings that come to this planet and universe. Madonna is a mix of unique physical and personal beauty that combined together made the person who she is until today: A GODDESS among GODS. THANK YOU Madonna for CHANGING MY LIFE.

the show needs tweaking i love nothing really matters as an opening but that has to be the most boring and bland tour opener from any of her tours. Vogue was a disjointed mess... she should have just made that a straight through-performance instead of breaking it up into a ballroom sequence (beyonce already did that on her tour) so it seemed repetitive. there were about 5 or so songs in the setlist that were not hits that could have been replaced with proper hits. Why so many interludes? And why did you recycle the beast within when you already did that on the re-invention tour.. Also she seems like she needed more rehearsal..... She needs to work out the kinks!
