These multiple account trolls are why I always read but rarely post in Madonna related threads in the main music forum because a person can't praise her or talk about her achievements without someone shooting them down and trying their damndest to prove that she has no talent and is rubbish and a plagiarist who has copied everything she's ever done in her career.

I don't understand why they have to pull her down all the time and bait her fans saying that we're always slagging off other artists because they're better than Madonna when often it's just some fans that make trouble and give us a bad name.

It really pisses me off when they blame ALL Madonna's fans for this when it's not everybody and they make out that Madonna fans are the only fans who (some of) are rude about other artists, what about Lady Gaga fans being rude about Madonna?

I'm sure that all these artists have 'stans' not just Madonna.
I'm not sure how legit Jeannie was either. I see DS have banned her. She was sending me daily messages and I was ignoring them as I got the impression she was just trying to cause trouble. Now looking back at some of them I think the whole account was an act and someone pretending to be a Madonna fan to try and pull other Madonna fans into her/his games. I think dearman got this spot on in his claims about her in that thread. The whole thing is just so bizarre. In one of the messages Jeannie even name drops you and claims you are a banned user who was called Mr. Fahrenheit. I'm not even sure how that person could know all this stuff unless they were stalking everyone's every single move.

I think until this issue is sorted just stick to the threads like this.

Well I can assure you I have had one 24 hour ban since I've been a member of these forums and the username I go by is the same one I joined with so I am not Mr Fahrenheit!

I would never have guessed that about Jeannie. She seemed like a fan who occasionally some criticisms of Madonna. But I never had any personal contact with her as far as messages.

But I guess some of these people pretend to be fans to trick people.

A long time ago I had a 24 hour ban, but it was because I said something to some user who was really being malicious towards Madonna. I don't think I said anything bad, but this person complained I guess. I was never clear why I was banned.

So sometimes the banning seems random.

Yeah, happy birthday to Madonna! She's celebrating her birthday in Cuba! (Thanks to President Obama, Americans can now travel to Cuba.)

She was dancing on a table. Sounds like she is having fun.

She made a surprise appearance at the 25th anniversary screening of Truth of Dare in NYC last night.
It's nice thats she is acknowledging her past.

That film changed a lot of people's lives in its embrace of gay people. It was such a great thing seeing it in theatres. I was a fan before but that movie really made me obsessed.

so the magazine 'love' sold out in 24 hrs!
the tour dvd is likely to be released for January?

so wish she had released 'unapologetic bitch' with a crazy video to follow the success of 'BIM'. It is perhaps the most current radio play friendly track other than 'hold tight'.
She amazes me how she copes with constant media scrutiny and she is always in the press!

A close relative who works in London, said once he was walking when all of a sudden a hundred photographers emerged from nowhere and it was all to take a photograph of her leaving one place to her car!

I didn't get a copy but I saw the interview online. It was very interesting. She said she plans to do more Tears of the Clown gigs.

It's interesting how when Madonna visits here in London, she is always in the press and photographers follow her all the time.

But I spend some time in the US with relatives, and she is not actually in the US tabloids all that much and not so many photographers follow her on a daily basis.

I think that's why she spends most of her time In NYC now. Her life can be more normal there and there's not as much press scrutiny.

On December 2, in MIami as part of the Art Basel Fair she is doing another Tears of the Clown gig.

It's a benefit for Raising Malawi.

This Friday is the charity Tears of the Clown gig.

Here's the program for it. The auction items are amazing. I love how committed she is to cause. She is going all out!
Seems this is going to be more rehearsed and polished than the show in Australia.

Superb program. Can you imagine,just fora minute, being able to afford to buy the "Visit Malawi with Madonna" lot? It would be a dream come true!

She posted a rehearsal clip on her instagram. She's doing American Life!

So it looks as though the setlist will be different from the first TOAC.

I'm thinking this will have a political theme with the election of Trump and she mentions Standing Rock, where they are having the protest of the oil pipeline going across Native American land in North Dakota.

Madonna
Is the most art-pop pop-art
artist ever

#tearsofaclown

It is perhaps her most art house art performance
It's raw, contra; subversive

Could you see Elvis, MJ; Beatles; Beyoncé doing this?

I am glad her tears of a clown set was filmed professional this time.

Would be great if it was featured as a dvd in the near future or maybe as a special feature on the future rebel heart dvd.

I like her rendition of Toxic and the outfit she wears with the pink wig.

have been playing Living for love a lot this week, it has sunk in pretty well, probably because it never was played

She received the Billboard Woman of the Year award.

Her speech sounds amazing. It airs on tv in the US on Monday although it was taped yesterday.
