The performance was used like a "single" for her video collections and. A celebration of MTV and Madonna's Career. That was a perfect performance, but was not meant to be a live show, it was meant to be a dancing painting in form of a live video. That's so fucking crazy and amazing.

The lip sync isn't a problem cause the whole performance was like a scene from a movie and a microphone would've ruin it. Madonna is the peak of pop performances.

She's just mediocre in my opinion. She is so weak vocally that she couldn't sing that easy song live. She built a career off of being controversial, there no real talent to see here.

@@jakemiles1427 no one asked and let people with some knownledge to say if she can sing or not cause i doubt you have

@@naurking5388 I have & indeed she can 😊

[@asd44688]

Yeahh if it was performed now, she would wear small-white earset microphone

[@jakemiles1427]

@@naurking5388 It doesn't take an advanced course in vocals to see she is mediocre. There is a clear difference between artists like whitney, mariah and artist like madonna. This woman is a mediocre vocalist and a mediocre dancer and Elton john agrees. You guys are biased because you worship these celebrities but the FACT is she isn't a talented artist she's just a controversial pop artists with a lot hits.
