One can only hope that she takes after her idol Greta Garbo and fade into reclusiveness.... :good:

Face it Madge, the 1980's are looooong over and most of the groups that were with you on the Billboard Charts have long broken up and their fan base are responsible adults raising families ....

Take a tip and go into retirement like Grace Slick or play Vegas like Elton John... :clown2:

This same news story was discussed in another thread yesterday. I just thought it was also fitting for this thread.

OMG! Madonna 'confronts bored fan at concert'
  • Material Girl keen to get her supporters on their feet

    Thursday, 9 October 2008

    Madonna is reported to have lost her rag when she noticed a man sitting down in the audience during a gig this week.

    The singer was performing at New York’s Madison Square Garden on the latest leg of her Sticky And Sweet tour when she's said to have spotted the restrained fan.

    ‘Are you f***ing bored, sir? Why are you sitting? I’m busting my arse up here,’ The Sun claims she snapped.

    But Madonna, 50, quickly got over the snub by cracking a joke.

    ‘Clap for me!' she urged. 'My ego is bruised right now!’
I thought due to her Kabbalah devotion, she was supposed to be over the huge ego problem?

I'm kinda already bored with all the divorce stuff.

I did totally dig the whole leak about how Guy Ritchie told her she looks like a Granny and that she's washed up :good:

Unless we get more tid bits like that, I'm not terribly interested in the rest of it, especially the financial crap, who gets what, etc. (unless the court gives eveything to him and she winds up living in a card board box, but I doubt that will happen).

Her career is ho-hum. The tour has been boring from Day One (looks like a re-hash of her last several tours). The "Filth And Wisdom" movie looks dull, has gotten mostly bad reviews.

Other than the divorce, there's really not much going on with her.

It's especially boring considering the rumors that have been going around for the past couple of years. When I first heard the news I was like 'oh, they finally announce it'. The formal announcement was inevitable for a while.

She's boring people at her tour again:

Madonna Brings It Home [Boston performance]
  • by Brad Stern
    10/21/08

    .... I must say, while the crowd had its moments, its behavior was generally atrocious.

    Of my own row, there were only three people dancing.

    The rest stood motionless, their eyes wandering and weaving through the surrounding crowd.

    Some even carried on conversations as the performances were happening! I wasn't the only one who noticed.

    Always the charmer, Madonna found different ways to let the audience know how she was feeling: "Wake up, Boston! Am I boring you?!" she'd taunt, pointing out into the lukewarm crowd. "Then stand up!"

The following editorial has a positive tone and tries, at least a little bit, to convince us that Madonna is relevant, but I find that portions of it actually do the opposite: demonstrate that she's a has-been and a boring one at that.

Considering that we don't know for sure if all these recent tabloid leaks are totally accurate or true, it seems a bit of a stretch to base an entire editorial on Madonna's use of the phrase "gold digger" to describe Guy Ritchie, when she may have never used that phrase at all (if the story was invented by a tabloid writer).

Madonna: Who's a gold digger now?
  • Oct 24 2008
    by Ann Powers

    ....In the 1980s, Madonna shocked onstage and in her music, but now we've grown utterly comfortable with bared midriffs, masturbation references and even the language of S&M; they're just part of the blithely exhibitionistic era that Madge herself helped usher in.

    The imagery she used in her tours, her "Sex" book and her videos pushed an envelope that's been ripped open -- now you can see girl-on-girl action in episodes of "House" and bondage is a joke in a bound-for-Broadway musical.

    ....As the entertainment world caught up to her, making it tougher for her to break taboos, Madonna became less controversial and more simply clucked over by gossips.
^In other words, Madonna is boring now.

She's already utilized all sexual taboos to the stage that there was, and is, nothing left for her to shock us with anymore (aside from incest; maybe in her next MTV VMA appearance, she'll french-kiss son Rocco; or better yet, she'll french-kiss David Banda, since Madonna seems to think we're all still living in a world that is amazed or offended by seeing a white person kiss a dark-skinned person).

I don't get anything of madoona anymore and her divorce news has become a boring and outdated sh**ty topic.
Not interested to even read about it. Nobody posts that even anymore, she's nowhere on the net unless you search for it yourself. The has been unwanted degrading ol' granny.

Madonna: New 'Celebration' video inspired by Mariah Carey
  • Madonna's new Celebration single is not groundbreaking, but it's fun, danceable, and better than anything on that pathetic album known as Hard Candy.

    Unfortunately, Madonna subscribed to the Mariah Carey principal when creating the video by barely putting in any effort and doing the same thing that she's done in several of her other videos.

    It's great that a 51-year old woman can be sexy and dance. But Madonna has been bombarding us with this message for the past five years. We get it! Move on!

    It's also great that a 51-year old woman can cavort with a 23-year old man. Good for you, Madonna! Just stick it up to such a misogynist society! Wait a second - you already have several times. Didn't we see you and Jesus cavorting in a magazine earlier this year? Move on, Madonna!

    We have to give Madonna credit for one thing. After she overstays her welcome with a certain image, she strikes back with something new and makes us love her all over again. Perhaps she doesn't want to do anything new until her contract ends with Warner Brothers this year. As boring as she is right now, her first musical effort with Live Nation will undoubtedly turn the tide.

I should maybe paste a copy of this to the "WE" film thread:

Has Madonna Committed the Greatest Crime of All: Being Boring?
  • Today 8:45 AM PDT by Ted Casablanca

    We were hoping for the best with Madonna's love-story themed new film, W.E., by launching our own gallery of against-all-odds celeb lovers.

    So far, film critics haven't been too supportive of Madonna's tale about King Edward VIII's 1936 abdication to marry American divorcee Wallis Simpson, interwoven with a contemporary (fictional) love story starring Abbie Cornish.

    So, how did Madge do?

    Judge for yourself babes, after checking it out, but we have to say Guy Ritchie's ex very well may have committed the worst celluloid crime of all: We were totally bored watching this.

    And trust us, we know our gossipy Brit history: The whole reason Prince William came to be second in line to the throne was because his great-grandfather became king after Edward abandoned his throne for love. Otherwise, we never would have fallen in love with queen-to-be Kate Middleton!

    But according to director Madonna, this pivotal global tale (which literally had the world mesmerized and permanently altered history) serves more as a quaint, slightly obsessive backdrop for a romantic, mousey brunette.

    READ: Like Mom, Like Daughter: Madonna's Mercy Shows Off Dancing Skills

    Or maybe that's just us. But come on, Madonna herself has been one of the biggest trailblazing lovers of all time, nabbing JFK Jr., marrying fellow rebel Sean Penn, not marrying Lourdes's father, Carlos Leon, trying a second marriage with Ritchie and having a host of boy-toys ever since, fab stuff!

    Meanwhile, Cornish just acts like a lustful librarian grasping after dusty, insignificant headlines. We say Madonna should have mirrored her own life instead!

    Agree or no?

If Madonna had "mirrored her own life" instead,it wouldn't have been a movie. It would have been a miniseries just to get through all those johns starting with her teen years.

Hee hee hee, that and, had it mirrored her life, the movie would've also served as one big PSA about the dangers of STDs and genital crabs.

No spark in Madonna’s boring Super Bowl performance
  • by Jeff Simon

    Updated: February 7, 2012, 7:44 AM

    I was wrong. Was I ever.

    For two decades now, I have been writing that Madonna was going to be a very interesting old woman.

    She still has time, of course. She’s 53 now, which means she still has about seven years on my scorecard before the adjective “old” applies. But if her late middle age is any indication, she has become a crashing bore.

    Her halftime show at the Super Bowl was the all-time worst in a performance art internationally known for transforming pop music vitality into godawful corporate overkill.

    Not even rapper/costar M.I.A. and her infantile attempt to inject naughty rebellion into the mechanical wall-to-wall dance pop oafishness made much of a dent. For those who missed it, there was a moment when the young rapper sang what sounded to most of us at home like “I don’t give a s---” and accompanied it with an all-too-apparent flip of the bird.

    Which, if you ask me, wasn’t really aimed at us poor consumers of wings, chips and pizza during one authentically super Super Bowl, but rather at her halftime hostess—Madge herself —who had smugly assured the press during a preshow news conference that this year there would be no “wardrobe malfunction” a la Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake.

    Strictly speaking, she was right, but I’m not sure it’s all that different from a language and gesture malfunction from a young rapper who just couldn’t resist the temptation to infuse the proceedings with just enough “acting out” to cause lots and lots of clucking and disapproval from the great American clucking-and-disapproval machine.

    Under ordinary circumstances, you might almost feel sympathy for a performer insistent on “keeping it real” enough to demonstrate conspicuous childishness but, frankly, I found the circumstances so extraordinarily deadening that M.I.A. could have brought out the entire cast of Monday evening’s “Smash” for a simultaneous wardrobe malfunction without anything even vaguely “real” intruding on the Super Bowl’s wretched halftime proceedings.

    It was, to be blunt, an entirely wasted half hour in the middle of a dramatic and terrific football game. After merely a couple minutes of Madonna looking none-too-limber, I wondered, “Where is Lady Gaga when you really need her?”

    For those keeping score at home, that means Madge has now added a Super Bowl halftime calamity to the upcoming national opening of her film “W. E.” in a middle age that, so far, seems to be devoted to arriviste intellectualism, social climbing and a whole bunch of other dreary things most of us never thought we’d be saying about Madonna Louise Ciccone of Bay City, Mich.

    I admit I haven’t seen “W. E.” yet, so it may indeed be a far more respectable film than its reception, thus far, has given it credit for. (A prevailing climate of opinion about films, as well as music, is often wrong.)

    It does seem, though, a dubious gesture for Madonna to jump into a romantic wallow in the lives of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, considering their not-so-hidden reputation for anti- Semitism and entirely inadequate anti-fascism at the wrong time. (Even if one cedes they may not have been Nazi sympathizers, there is little question that their behavior during World War II and after was less than inspirational to the Allied cause.)

    But then, I’m sure Madge herself feels woefully misunderstood, so maybe she made a strong case for Wallis and Edward, the Duke and Duchess of High Society Vapidity.

    Add all of that to her previously reported studies of the Jewish mystical teachings of Kabbalah and it may well seem that Madonna, in her British years, has taken climbing to a new level that may well deserve a bird or two flipped along the way.

    Certainly shouting, “You like me, you really like me,” to the annual corporate massacre of entertainment put on by the NFL at almost every Super Bowl doesn’t exactly seem to be in the same spirit as that of the woman who made “Truth or Dare.”

    I was granted a one-on-one interview with her Madge-ness before “Truth or Dare” came out in 1991 and I must say, in a professional lifetime of such things, it was one of the more peculiar I’ve done. I took the occasion to give her a hard time for invading her own family’s privacy in the film and asking the toughest questions we had time for, but the whole setup of the interview was like a royal audience rather than a conversation between sensitive and candid consenting adults.

    The couch she sat on was on a platform raised a few inches off the floor. Interviewers sat across a coffee table that was as wide as a moat, while she, on the couch, was surrounded by pillows on every side.

    She had turned a hotel suite into a throne room.

    On Super Bowl Sunday, her entrance on a barge pulled by dancers in slave costume was an apparent homage to Liz Taylor entering Rome in “Cleopatra.” At least Liz followed all that up with a wink at Rex Harrison. Madonna followed it up with a lot of jumping around that Lady Gaga would have done better.

    Please understand. I truly believe none of us has any business begrudging Madonna her middle-age affection for extreme respectability. I’m a little leery, though, of Madonna at 53 inflicting it on all of us in front of the largest national audience she could find.

    Give me Clint Eastwood any day, at 81, giving a halftime pep talk to America to sell Chryslers and, at the same time, demonstrate some real feeling for Detroit, the city 115 miles away from the one where Madonna was born (a city, of course, where Eastwood’s film “Gran Torino” was set).

    Eastwood has gotten more interesting with every passing year.

    So pass it on to Madonna, if you like. There’s still hope.

    These days, though, she’s about as interesting as Debby Boone.

    And not quite as good a singer.

I think she stopped being shocking a long time ago, but with each new album release after 2000 it still takes people by surprise that she's dull.

Can Madonna Still Shock Us?

So, does this mean Madonna has lost her ability to shock us? Recent evidence says yes, though maybe that just proves how much she's influenced pop music. Semi-nude dancers grinding to the beat of songs that play on sexual or religious imagery don't scandalize the nation like they did 25 years ago, since today that describes every other video from artists like Lady Gaga, Rihanna, and Britney Spears. Madonna does seem much tamer today, but only because she's already broken essentially every taboo there is — and made us accept it

I don't really know where this should go... But I'm posting it in this thread and the "Music Videos" thread (you can delete it from here or there if either is the wrong place to post this)...

But haha! Give Me All Your Luvin' "controversial"? It was one of the most boring videos I have ever seen. And besides, it was very predictable that her song would have some football theme to it because of the Super Bowl appearance that was coming up. :yawn: I could see "Girls Gone Wild" getting chosen instead but this... Meh.

I just copied the parts about Boring-donna...

Songs that spark controversy

  • Here's looking at some singers and performers who survived the controversies they were mired in because of their lyrics or music videos and found fame (or continued notoriety), but remained talking points in spite of that.

    Madonna Give Me All Your Luvin'

    Madonna isn't done yet. The Material Girl had a busy, eventful year playing up her 'controversy's favourite child' spin.

    In bad taste? The cheerleaders, including Nicki Minaj and M.I.A., are shouting "L.U.V." while the football players, in an attempt to save her, are shot by a drive-by shooter with a machine gun.

    The controversy: In light of the gun violence and senseless killings in the US this year, unnecessarily violent.


First off, I don't think this boring video was a "talking point". It seemed to be forgettable. And I'm not defending Madonna or anything, but the video was released BEFORE any of the shootings occurred. And second, nobody made a big deal about how "violent" the video was at the time of its release. Lol... I think this site (author??) is a Madonna fan trying to desperately find a way to make Madonna big headline controversy news. Either that or Madonna paid money to the site to make a "controversial" article about her.

Sorry if this is OT (relocate if you can) ... but how about that skiing "face plant"? I found that another "And we're supposed to care, WHY??" moment for most of the world, while the fanboys & girls squealed about her redefining old age & her need to rest up & rejuvenate.

And don't forget she's still trying to prove how motherhood has supposedly made her a better person. Just this past year:

:She supposedly couldn't tour Down Under because her kids needed her.
:She bragged how she eats dinner with her children.
:She made a dramatic statement about her & her children strolling by a Hurricane Sandy site. We didn't see her on that NBC telethon, though ... but, hey, who needs that when you can roll on a concert stage while the fanboys toss money at you?
:She broke out the violins about Lourdes "leaving home" at 16 - the girl is only getting a posh condo across town [NYC] for the love of pete ...

So her MDNA tour has been over for only about a month now, and there's next to nothing about her in the headlines anymore.

Nobody really has anything to say about her unless she is right in the middle of doing an album or on a tour.

She's having to work a little harder to keep her name in the press any more.

When celebrities are really popular, the media keep tabs on them, even between their film / book/ tv show/ tour/ album projects, but this hasn't been true of her since the 1980s, maybe the early 90s.

Notice how quickly the media coverage of her died down when her tour stopped.

That is true. There hasn't been anything new about Madonna in the headlines lately (which probably means this site won't has as many posts...).

Notice how Katy Perry (who doesn't have a tour/album out at the moment) has a new story almost every day (even if it's something as simple as what she's wearing and what she's doing with her boyfriend).

There was an article as far back as 1989 calling Madonna "the #1 most boring celebrity." Nice to see that after all these years she's still living up to it.
