October 20, 201311 yr Author "She was a sweetheart. We had great times. You take away the fame and everything and you got two people who just basically had a normal relationship. And I wish I could tell you more about it and throw some fireworks in there or something but it was kinda cool." Vanilla Ice, talking about Madonna, revealing how she used to disguise herself as an OAP during their dates back in 1991. "Like, we would go to movies. We had disguises. I had a moustache and a hat with hair coming down and she would go as an old lady. And we would walk in and the bodyguards would like 20 feet behind. y’know, kinda lookin’ just like we’re nobody. And just walk in and go and see our movie and just have a good, normal... we’d do dinner that way and nobody would ever recognize us. It was the greatest."
November 6, 201311 yr Author Stephen Bray (November 2013) Being a massive Madonna fan myself, I feel like I’d be remiss if I didn’t ask you at least one question about your fellow ASCAP member and Queen of Pop. (Laughs) I said The Color Purple was maybe my favorite experience, but I could just as easily say that those early days – those ten years of working with Madonna – were some of the happiest musical times of my life because I was fortunate enough to have a partner where we finished each other’s musical sentences, and I don’t think I’ve ever gotten along quite as well with any other collaborator in terms of writing. So are there a lot of unreleased recordings from your days working and writing with her that the public has yet to hear? There are a couple of note that I can think of: There’s a theme song that we were writing to Desperately Seeking Susan, and I have not heard that particular piece of music other than in the pile of cassettes that I have somewhere. Then I think we have a really cool song “First There’s a Kiss” that never saw the light of day. And do you think that they’ll ever see the light of day, or maybe get an official release? I hope so!
November 8, 201311 yr Author Lady Gaga (November 2013) on Madonna performing Born This Way on the MDNA Tour "I have to be really honest, I was completely kind of floored that Madonna was singing my song on her stage every night," Gaga told Attitude magazine. "I'm certainly not thinking about anybody but me and my fans when I'm on stage. The fact that I was on her mind at all. I mean, Madonna's... she's Madonna. "I looked up to her for a long time. I'm not quite sure what her intention was - to do that in the show - but I don't really care." She added: "I think playing into the gossip of the tabloids and, I guess the fodder of the competition, that's just not what I'm about. "She chooses to use her voice the way she chooses to use hers and I choose to use mine the way I use mine. "All it meant to me was that Madonna Ciccone was singing my song on her stage and I'm 27! "And as a punk-rocker from New York, I've basically been hoping that I would become so good that one day I would piss off Madonna!" Speaking further about the accusations of plagiarism, Gaga explained: "I truthfully believe that there was nothing about those records sounding alike, and everything about this gay icon versus gay icon nonsense.
November 18, 201311 yr Stupid presenter. Annoying and bad taste in music. :rolleyes: :kink: Going back to the Gaga article, I was quite surprised when I read about it since prior to this Gaga seems to have always said how much she likes Madonna and how much she inspires her. True, she does still admit she was an inspiration but she never used to say a bad word against Madonna. Edited November 18, 201311 yr by liamk97

December 3, 201311 yr Author Cumberbatch: Name impressed Madonna Madonna was impressed by Benedict Cumberbatch's 'weird name' when they met. The British actor has recalled being introduced to the music superstar for the first time. He claims Madonna found his moniker rather amusing. 'She said, 'You’re the one with the strange name.' I said, 'Yes, I am, Madonna,'' Benedict laughed to the latest British edition of GQ magazine. The 37-year-old star also discussed his love life in the interview. Despite recently being voted the world's sexiest actor, Benedict is currently single. He admits that having a successful Hollywood career has changed the way women treat him. 'It is harder [meeting women], because people think they know more about you than they actually do,' he explained. 'And you can’t control that....you can’t control perceptions of you.. Benedict has developed a reputation for being posh because he is so well spoken and has an unusual name. He wishes people would look past the surface and realise he is a down-to-earth guy.

The 48-year-old media personality has now revealed the bizarre reason behind his spat with the singer. Speaking to Ok! magazine,Piers said: "Madonna is pretty awful.

There was only 40 of us at this dinner party and she got annoyed because Bernard Manning started being offensive and that wound her up. She was with Guy Ritchie at the time and he'd been laughing his head off . . . I just picked up a bread roll and chucked it at her! "I hate the phoney accent, the muscled arms, the stripping off in her mid-fifties . . . Everything about her is attention-seeking - I think her 15 minutes of superstardom has probably run its course."

January 20, 201411 yr Author Kanye West from the latest Interview Magazine: Madonna, I think, is the greatest visual musical artist that we've ever had. If you look at her photo log, the photographers that she was able to work with throughout her career framed her in the proper way. It was the proper context. It was that visual that made sure that everything was gonna cut through in a certain way. I mean, you know as much as anyone how important the visuals are.
February 3, 201411 yr Author Queerty.com spoke to the talented Mary Lambert, the singer-songwriter who penned the chorus to Macklemore and Ryan Lewis’s "Same Love". In a very interesting chat they also discussed her Grammy performance, the brief duet with Madonna and the mass wedding officiated by Queen Latifah. Queerty.com: At the Grammys you got to perform the “Same Love” chorus as a duet with Madonna. Was she already familiar with you and the song? Mary Lambert: Yeah, which was crazy. She knew the song. I’m still processing what that means. That’s my life now. Q:Did you two chat? M.L.: Yeah, totally. We had two days of rehearsals together. I consider her a friend now. I was very emotional, not just from the song but from the fact that people were getting married during the song and Madonna was singing my lyrics. There was a moment when I was crying and she wiped my tears away. She’s wonderful.

March 14, 201411 yr Author Kirtsy Wark on the adoption interview, 2006 Pop icon Madonna was a super diva when she was first questioned about adopting her Malawi-born son in a sit-down interview. The star was interviewed by journalist Kirsty Wark on BBC2's Newsnight in 2006, amid a wave of criticisms of her adoption of an African baby. Speaking on The John Murray Show on RTÉ Radio 1, Mrs Wark said, ''She didn't like it when I asked a couple of questions, you know, about the adoption yet that was what the interview was about.'' ''You could see she was becoming uncomfortable and really after the interview there was a complete switch off,'' she said. The journalist recalled how the superstar had dictated the lighting concept for the interview and had ''controlled absolutely everything''. ''When we got there we realised that her lighting rig had been all set up and it was beautiful and it was filmy, gauzy and all fabulous and there I was looking completely different with a mic and one lighting camera,'' she said. ''She controls absolutely everything and I can understand that, you have an image you want to protect. She controlled absolutely everything for the set up in that interview,'' the BBC journalist added. Wark said it was difficult to warm to Madonna because the singer appeared to have a ''guard'' up. ''I admire her but I didn't necessarily take to her but I didn't take against her. I wouldn't mind sitting down and having a glass of wine with her but I wonder would she ever be off her guard,'' she said. The journalist interviewed the music icon after she received a bashing in the media for adopting the little boy from Africa, David Banda. 'We had been asking to interview Madonna for a while and then of course she adopted David Banda and there was a great hoo-ha,'' she said. Edited March 14, 201411 yr by SweetCandy
