DEBBIE GIBSON REVIEWS MADONNA

Hey everyone!

As promised, here is my recap of the current Madonna tour! She does not need my “review” : )

First of all, I had heard mixed things about the show….. and, often as artists get further along in their careers, they sometimes rest on their laurels.

I was THRILLED to see this was not the case with Ms. M !!!

The show started out very dark and intense…much like a Quentin Tarrantino film with Madonna in the role of Action Heroine!

Madonna was clad all in black and was on the prowl with her gals and guns! I am SURE this she has left controversy in her wake but….do we expect anything less? Where does one go after sex and religion?

I was in awe of her limberness and authority. The gal is BAD!!!!

I loved that after all the darkness, she counteracted it with the ultimate in girlish innocence and came out in the cheerleader garb we saw on the Superbowl

I also loved that she showed that she was aware of the Gaga “based upon” Born This Way without slamming her… instead she paid homage to Gaga and included a chorus in Express Yourself!

LOVED THAT!

The next high point for me was worth the ticket price…and I had a super up close view of this….Like a Virgin and Love Spent was a super intimate glimpse into Madonna’s inner world. This portion was so still and internal and cinematic…. She WENT THERE. I know from doing Broadway…this is EXHAUSTING! And…to go there while traveling city to city and doing all else that her show encompasses is truly extraordinary,

This also for me was the beginning of her voice opening up. I understand the physicallity of singing. I must often do cardio before my voice flows freely. I could hear Madonna’s vocal technique work as the tone was pure and resonate and embodied the richness that began with Evita.

At one point she showed her naked self and asked the audience “Why do I show my ass…?!?” and she said it was “to get our attention” That may have been true at first but NOW, I beg to differ. I would say…. It’s because SHE CAN!!!!

She looks amazing!

I LOVED the audience interraction about politics and about dropping judgement… She showed us her accessible human side and I longed for a bit more of that BUT, I get that she is still MADONNA afterall and wants to keep that superstar persona and mystery intact! So….she dangled that carrot JUST ENOUGH!

The song MASTERPIECE is, well JUST THAT – Gorgeous melody and super deep lyrics especially “Nothing is indestructible.” It sure is!

LIKE A PRAYER was rousing and amazing and the perfect “oldie” if you will to bring the crowd to a fever pitch.

I remember as a young girl writing a “shame on you Madonna” letter to the press in relation to her SEX book. My have things changed. Well….namely my perspective.

I now can see and appreciate how necessary Madonna’s fearlessness is for the advancement and evolution of society.

A world with freedom and without judgement….that is a beautiful thing!

MADONNA FOR PRESIDENT. She truly cares about PEOPLE!

Other than Tina Turner, I cannot think of another poster child for AGELESSNESS and TIMELESSNESS and RELEVANCE……

I was so relieved to see that we can count on SOMEONE to never phone it in.

As rivetting as this performance was… It leaves me wondering… WHAT WILL MADONNA DO NEXT?!?

I know I will be there in person to find out!

REVIEW : MADONNA BRINGS “MDNA” AT THE STAPLES CENTER! Los Angeles Times!

Human contortionists festooned with wings. Robed monks, mysterious crooning priests. Gunfights in seedy hotels. Dramatized murder, with blood splattered on a billboard-sized video screen. A warrior-ninja spinning nunchuku.

These musical dramas and more highlighted pop singer Madonna’s return to Los Angeles on Wednesday night, where she appeared at the Staples Center for the first of two concerts in support of her album, “MDNA.”

And that was just in the first act.

At various times in the second and third acts she brought out a floating drum line that played while hanging from the support beams, twirled a baton in unison with dancers/cheerleaders, and comforted a troop of soldier-dancers with an acoustic guitar, fiddle, and beat-based version of “Masterpiece.”

She floated on a chrome carriage above the stage, crawled on a staircase near the audience, clasping the hand of a fan. The joyous energy that lit up one middle-aged man’s face as Madge focused her gaze on him could have powered the Staples Center.

Of course it did. She’s Madonna, and nobody does this stuff better. Not Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Britney Spears, Ke$ha, Rihanna, Christina or any of the other generations of pop stars who have used as a model Madonna’s tightly crafted concerts/dance showcases/art projects/spectacles. Some of them may be better singers or more acrobatic, or offer cheaper ticket prices — rafter views at Staples started at over $100, and good seats went for more than $300 — but nobody has proven so adept at delivering the proverbial goods as Madge.

One piece of evidence: the suggestive way in which she incorporated the chorus of Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way” into Madonna’s “Express Yourself.” Delivered as both an incitement and a generational bridge, the gesture embodied the ways in which Madonna has embraced her pop offspring.

Which is saying something, given that the album she’s supporting is one of the least challenging of her career.

She front-loaded her show with tracks from “MDNA,” crafting a film noir-inspired, acrobatically choreographed run of the first five songs on the album. From there, the drama built, both within her musical seductions and during breaks.

And as is her wont, she let loose on a mid-set sermon, this one focused on Russian band Pussy Riot, and the recent shooting of a 14-year-old Pakistani girl, Malala Yousafzai, allegedly at the hands of the Taliban. She protested with her voice, and with her music she shocked and awed.

Rolling on the floor during “Human Nature,” she stripped to her bra and turned her back to the crowd. The seductress pulled down her pants to reveal her derriere, above which on the small of her back was written the name “Malala.”

The hits continued, moving through the set like a well-crafted mixtape: “Vogue” rendered in black and white; “I’m a Sinner” saw Madonna with a guitar playing to a version that morphed into a kind of Indian raga. “Like a Prayer” featured a choir of three dozen, consisting of the dancers who over the course of the night performed feats of balletic strength and agility.

Combined, the Queen of Pop delivered a grand spectacle, 90 minutes of ridiculously joyous performance. No wonder tickets were so expensive. This was some serious business that required a lot of (shirtless, muscular) manpower, and just as much feminine energy and mystique.

Heidi Klum Tweets From Madonna's LA MDNA Show!

MADONNA DEDICATES L.A. PERFORMANCE TO CHILD ACTIVIST SHOT IN PAKISTAN!

Jessica Alba, Heidi Klum, Neil Patrick Harris, Emily VanCamp and Darren Criss were all in attendance at Wednesday’s Staples Center show.

Madonna brought her eye-popping MDNA Tour to L.A.’s Staples Center on Wednesday night, where she dedicated a song to Malala Yousafzai, the Pakistani child activist shot in the head and neck on Tuesday by a masked member of the Taliban.

Dressed in a leather skirt and black beret, the music icon took a break from the evening’s theatrics to tell the sold-out crowd of 18,000 that it was time “to have our serious chat.”
“This made me cry,” Madonna said. “The 14-year-old schoolgirl who wote a blog about going to school. The Taliban stopped her bus and shot her. Do you realize how sick that is?”
“Support education! Support women!” she shouted, to the crowd’s cheers of approval.
Yousafzai, one of the most outspoken and influential advocates for girls’ rights to education in the Middle East, remains unconscious in a hospital since the shooting. Pakistani Taliban spokesman Ehsanullah Ehsan said of the assassination attempt, “Let this be a lesson,” and pledged that the Taliban would try again to kill her should she survive her injuries.

Later in the show, Madonna performed a striptease, during which she turned her back to the audience to reveal the name “Malala” stenciled across it.
“This song is for you, Malala,” she said, then launched into “Human Nature.”
At past tour stops, Madonna’s back has read things like “Obama” — which was accompanied by her controversial proclamation that the country had “a black Muslim in the White House” — and “Pussy Riot,” a reference to the punk rock group sentenced to two years in a Russian prison camp for a guerrilla performance in a Moscow cathedral.
One of the three convicted Pussy Riot members has since had her sentence suspended, but Madonna’s thoughts were with the two who still sat behind bars.

“One thing I’ve realized during my travels is how lucky we Americans are,” she told the L.A. audience. “We are for sure an imperfect country with an imperfect government. But I tell you — the s— I have seen in the Ukraine and in Russia… May I remind you that two members of Pussy Riot are still in jail. In St. Petersburg, 75 men were arrested for being gay.”
But the serious talk was just a few minutes of a staggering, two-plus-hour multimedia spectacle, the likes of which the pop music world rarely sees.
Madonna, now 54, kept up impressively with her chorus of physically gifted (several literally double-jointed) dancers, ably commandeering a set heavy on new material that featured gothic monks, space samurai, a Tarantino-esque murder scene, Bollywood train surfing, an Art Deco voguing ball, a flying marching band and … whew … much more.

The star took some delight in taunting the L.A. crowd — which included the likes of Jessica Alba, Heidi Klum, Neil Patrick Harris, Revenge star Emily VanCamp and Darren Criss of Glee — by throwing around the dreaded “J” word.
“They say the people in L.A. are so jaded. That they’re not excited about anything because they’ve seen it all and have done it all. True?” Madonna asked.
She then took the liberty of answering on behalf of the rowdy crowd. “F— no!”
And the effort was a family affair, with son Rocco Ritchie grooving with mom to “Open Your Heart” — a sweet nod to the song’s classic music video — and her other son, David Banda Ciccone Ritchie, joining her re-mixer Martin Solveig onstage for his pre-show DJ set.
Madonna plays a second show at the Staples Center on Thursday, then brings the tour to Las Vegas on Saturday for the first of two dates at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.
