Good to see you back, looking good and hearty with another fine reaction.❤ Madonna has had a checkered relationship with Hollywood. In 1984, she learned how to play its game and charmed it when she released her video of Material Girl. She moved residence to L.A., married one of its ‘bad boy’ idols in Sean Penn. She also wrote soundtrack music for Hollywood films then and appeared in Vision Quest (cameo role) and co-starred in Desperately Seeking Susan. In 1990 she released her video of Vogue where she paid homage to Hollywood Golden Age icons that influenced her. She also co-starred in Dick Tracy with Warren Beatty, one of Hollywood’s old lion and playboy with whom she had a brief romantic affair. In 1992 she appeared in the film A League Of Their Own. She continued to write soundtrack for movies. She also starred and won acclaim for her role in Evita in 1996. By this time she knows the ins and outs of Hollywood’s celeb culture and establishment that’s sexist, superficial and ageist that’s dominated by men, by the media and a conservative Academy that awards the Oscars. By 1998 ROL era, in her video of Drowned World/Substitute For Love, she has no illusions about what Hollywood is all about. By 2000 she had moved to England after marrying Guy Richie. By the 2003 American Life era, in this Hollywood song, she exposed and criticized the Hollywood facade, its ills, and its complicity for glorifying violence and war and for foisting to the public the pursuit of superficial values. She was shunned, shamed, and vilified for this, but she is a true artist, willing to pay the price for speaking truth to power. She may have her detractors, but she persisted and fought the good fight-and for this she has many more admirers.😊

Fun fact: the album American Life was supposed to be called Hollywood. It was a last-minute decision to change its name. This song would be the first single but Madonna decided to use it as the follow-up to American Life. There is a making the video for it, made by MTV. It’s very interesting to see her interacting with her long-time friend and director of this video, Jean-Baptiste Mondino

Another early video and I love it!!! EDIT: I am certain that your other viewers will tell you the name of the photographer who's work inspired the shots in Hollywood, and I can't think of his name right now. However, I've ALWAYS thought this video sort of brings to mind the 1978 fashion/neo-giallo/slasher film "The Eyes of Laura Mars" which starred Faye Dunaway. There's a dangerous feel to the fashionable poses and moments. This is one of my favourite Madonna videos.

Hey lighting girls! This song is not one of my favorite but I love the video.... You should react the VMA's live with britney and christina!! It is wonderful and the provocation during the performance (I don't spoil it) shocked so much but it is Madonna! For single, if I am not fan of Hollywood, I'm so in love with the next one "nothing fails" which is one of her best single ever (without a video.... so unfair!!!!) but I'm sure Brenda will use a tissue during this song..... .... and after "love profusion" with one of the most beautiful video of her career..... And "mother and father" (included on the celebration tour..) which was a promo single .... So happy to see your reactions, I'm with you from France, Take care. With kindness and hugs.

"This bird has flown". Madonna leaving her Hollywood career behind. Although Madonna made some very good movies, the Hollywood community never embraced her. Too smart and too outside the lines for those folks who are actually very conservative, banal and politically correct in the shallowest of ways. Oh well, their loss. I believe that this album was a face the truth, warts and all, project for her. Love it.

Ageism started to hit Madonna around this point form US Radio. After American Life, the song, fell quickly off the chart, radio was hesitant to add this song even though it was a bop. Funnily enough, this hit #2 in the UK and lit up the dance charts (there are some AMAZING remixes for this song that you should definitely check out!). The remix was used in the Re-invention tour.

I LOVE this song. The bass line rhythm/tempo of the synths and guitar are so beautifully/perfectly produced. The lyrics are definitely subversive. All the imagery of the vignettes in the video were directly inspired by a 1970s fashion photographer named Guy Bourdine. Some of his images of that era very controversial by todays standards. For whatever reasons, both Madonna and video director Jean-Baptist Mondino chose not to ask the estate of Guy Bourdine to use his style for the video. Bourdine's estate sued Madonna and Co. for her interpretation/intellectual property use of Bourdine's work and visual styles. The video cost over 1+ million dollars to make, Madonna had to pay an additional $700k after the fact for not asking permission to interpret Bourdine's work. The irony, Bourdine's estate said had Madonna asked to use it, they would've said yes, for a lot less money. MTV aired a "Making of" the Hollywood video. So much info there, she wears Gucci, Stella McCartney, and Prada in the video. Please react to her iconic 2003 MTV Awards performance of Hollywood.🙏

Agree with the other person that commented, love the hair Emily.! You are both spot on about ageism and expectations for female artists which Madonna seems to have thrown at her far more than most. She opened the Girlie Show Tour in London in 1993 and shockingly one of the reviews had calm down Grandma in the headline. She would have been 35 at the time. Utterly ridiculous. There are not many people in their 60s who still have the drive, energy and commitment that she puts into her work. There are a lot of 30 year olds that can’t match her either. I’m looking forward to your review of nothing fails, I think you will love it Brenda, but may need your trusty tissues ❤️

It's become such a no-win situation. If a "public" woman (and tbh even men, though still to a lesser degree) allows themselves to age naturally it gets a "omg...they've really gotten old" or "what happened? They used to be hot" But the opposite also happens. So much derision in saying "they've had a lot of work done" And even the same line of "they used to be hot" when someone has altered their looks to appear younger. This video relied heavily on the 1970s work of edgy French fashion photographer Guy Bourdain. His estate actually sued Madonna and director Jean Baptiste Mondino (he also directed Don't Tell Me, Human Nature, Open Your Heart, Justify My Love) for appropriating the images and settled out of court.

The culture has certainly changed in Hollywood since the Me Too movement, my husband is a costume designer for film and Tv and the behavior toward women especially when he started in the mid 90s, has drastically changed. Sexual inuendo, unwanted touching, etc. is no longer tolerated behind the scenes, and thankfully women over 40, 50 and 60 can still have amazing careers, even in front of the camera.

It could have been just a catchy popsong but there is this underlying darkness and melancholy about it thanks to its lyrics. Great underrated album. This song hit #2 in the UK but did not even chart in the US due to the backlash to the American Life song and video. The album still went #1 in the US like everywhere else in the world and sold over 5 million, so it was a success but compared to what she did before numberswise, it was her lowest selling album up to this point. Fans who really get into it and the lyrics mostly love it though. There are some great albumtracks, stripped back, acoustic, almost folk, that are definitely worth listening to. It works well as an album imo. Just like with Erotica people could not handle the first single and video, so it overshadowed the whole album. Die Another Day remains her only US top 10 single from this era.

Love this reaction, yes Emily is correct it's getting worse these days with the influencers! "Hollywood" is a great song but I always imagine a far better video for it. This video is only okay, I only love when she's in the black dress and seen with the maid. Re-Invention Tour is her WORST tour 😂😂Bland and milquetoast, except for a few performances. Holy hell I'm gonna have it ROUGH for many days then, help me Emily and Brenda 😂

@@rol_rob2603 “low budget tour”? Not at all. After her debut 1985 Virgin Tour, all her succeeding world tours spent lavishly on state-of-the-art staging including audio/visual/lighting technology; multi-media backdrop/screens, costumes, the best dancers and back-up musicians, artistic/music/choreo directors, a small army of technical, administrative, marketing and security staff-that she had to hire, take along the tour, pay for their travel and lodging. For this 2004 Re-Invention World Tour the initial cost of the stage alone was $1mil ($1.663mil adjusted to today’s inflation rate). The logistics and costs to transport the staging equipment included a jumbo cargo jet and several 18-wheeler semi-trailer trucks to haul the equipment from city to city of the tour. A technical crew had to set up and dismantle the stage for every venue of the tour. She had to rent out concert venues, pay commissions on ticket sales, spend for rehearsals, and free promo mini concerts prior to the main tour. Her elaborate production is one reason why her world tours are successful in terms of attendance and ticket sales.

You still have about another 40% her content to get through. Thats how proflic she is. Plus i think love profusion is next. Personally i think its one of her most underrated songs, lyrically it's brilliant.

Are there any links in the comments? Sometimes they seem to have issues with links (and sometimes comments just disappear for a few days for no apparent reason). Hopefully they'll reappear. ❤️❤️
