Madonna has announced on Instagram that new music and a film on the way.

Madonna:
"The energy of Portugal is so inspiring. I feel very creative and alive here and I look forward to working on my film LOVED and making New Music!!! This will be the next Chapter in My Book! It's time to conquer the world from a different vantage point!!"

THE queen of pop :clap1: Happy birthday Madge

A true legend :clap1:

pop culture would be nothing without her amazing artistry :love:

Happy Birthday Madonna <3

On the 16th August 1977 the King of rock and roll died.:bawling:

Britneys still alive?

ahh a vocalist and an actress

Why was this thread made on the 14th then :laugh:

The queen of pop deserves an additional two days celebration :clap2:

Because I was away at Alton Towers for 2 days, so I couldn't post yesterday.

Anyway, so pleased Madonna enjoyed herself in Italy. Love her. :dance:

:thumbs: She does indeed.

Happy Birthday Gemma Collins

oh wow ageist jokes in 2017, you are so funny dear!!!

I heard that

So amazing to share a birthday with her :love:

:joker::joker::joker: The same old people, Dominic. Just ignore them and focus on the QUEEN. :dance:

Hope you had a wonderful day. xxx
Did you listen to Madge to celebrate? :dance:

Part of the soundtrack of my childhood. So wanted to be her. We all had fingerless lace gloves and thought we were sooooo cool :laugh:

She's such a legend and deserves much more respect than she's given :love:

:laugh:

She was extremely popular back in the 80's...

Thank you! I did listen to Lucky Star at the gym yesterday so that counts :dance:

:cheer2:

59 and still going strong. :dance:

Kween of age

Even though it reached #2 in the USA and 4 in the UK, One of Madonna's most underrated 80's single's: "Causing A Commotion" is 30 years old today. Wow. :cheer2: 30 YEARS OLD!

1983...


As most Madonna fans know, "Everybody" was the first single that sent her on an astonishing journey and kickstarted her career into orbit. She is now the most influential female artist in music history! This video incapsulated her youthful looks. So babyfaced and fresh. Wonderful!

i really feel sad for her daughter Lourdes, who has to deal with a younger guy obsessed mom-diva :sad:

On august the 29th 1987, Madonna played to what it is still considered one of (if not) the biggest paying concert by a solo artist with a record of 120,000 concert goers.

OMG, SPILL THAT TEA, PAT....especially the BIB.

"BC: Madonna is consistently attacked as a non-artist, someone who has somehow skated by for 35 years on sex and hype. How do you react when people scoff at her musicality, who don't see her as an artist?

PL: It pisses me off, to be honest. The people that do get credited as being real artists often times are just “cool” and that gets interpreted as art. And these days, there are way too many talent-show winners, and they get called artists because they have some crazy-good voice. I have issues with these things, but I won’t go into it because I’ll probably have my house burned down by the people that make Auto-Tune. I can assure the world listening and looking at Madonna that they don’t have any reason to ever defend her or feel insecure about it and all I can say is I’ve worked with a lot of people — I’ve worked with a lot of people — and ... hard to be any better or more artistic than her.

There’s people with a more controlled voice — the word “better” is not fair, because how can you have a better voice than the voice that sang “Like a Prayer”? You just go through the list of singer-songwriters through the years — Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, none of these people were “singers” But these are the ones that the most art came from. I think her lyrics were taken for granted all those years ago; you look at the individual lines and this is what people need to think about now, those statements she made all those years ago. I’m certain she’s still doing it.

My knee-jerk is to defend her always, but then I have the demos where she sang a song, having written it 15 minutes before, and it was a #1 record and remains valid 30 years later, who’s gonna tell me that’s not a real artist?"

Music is her best album

Music is a brilliant album and is my second favourite of the 00's.

Love the video's and imagery.
