Have to say i dont think shes ahead of her time anymore, id say shes just old now. She goes on too extra now trying to stay relevant, its abit corny. Look shes been great back in the day and edgy etc

@@janetcarlson31 Be a little more grateful. She used that trashy fame to fight for worldwide equality for women in the home and in the workplace. She also used that fame to fight the US government when they were being willfully ignorant about the AIDS crisis.

Janet Carlson so true, but looking down onto her dark covertly narcissistic character just should trigger sympathy and not hate. When you got good ears, it is not hard to notice how desperately, loud and ugly she cries out for sympathy. And she made dollars with it, but at least she has not reached out for presidency yet.

Yeah like being told when to clap and such.

Like Wendy show!!! It's too fake

Yeah, Madonna and MJ were the King and Queen in the '80s into the '90s. I remember when they attended the 1991 Academy Awards together., That caused a stir because here you have the two biggest stars in the world together on the red carpet. That would be like Marilyn Monroe and Elvis Presley as each other's dates. It was surreal.

and bowie=))

Nope. A fraction of their impact and sales.

Bowie was never the star Madonna or Michael Jackson was... maybe in England, but England is not the world.

Messylin Even in England David’s sales and chart stats are nowhere near theirs.

Why do people go on repeating the same rhetoric about Madonna on these videos? I'm sure even Helen Keller in her grave knows Madonna was highly successful. Doesn't need to be repeated 1,000,000,000 times.

What about Janet Jackson? Wasn't she huge as well at that time too?

***** Yes, in fact Janet was more popular in the U.S. during the 90's than Madonna.

+marishana meyer Never on Madonna's level. In 1989, Madonna won the MTV Artist of the Decade 1980's award By 1990, Vogue, Dick Tracey, the Blond Ambition Tour & the VMA's 1990 put Madonna as a global cultural icon. Madonna was the biggest music star

+Portishead Biscuit Proofs please

it may be 90's but this looks sooo 80's (shoulder pads,arsenio's hairstyle,....)

crysjumar1 1990 was more like the 80's. 2000 is a year from the real 90's.

I miss her in the 80s

Me too I was a teenager.😥.

Me toooooooooooo

When l was a child in the 80's and a teenager in the 90's and l was always in awe of her skin, her face ( especially the eyes) and how fit she always was, hard to let go of that as you age I'd imagine, her daughter has her eyes.

Mae west did it all first. Wayyy back when.

🤢🤮

Yes

And now it's in wanton excess, surpassing her in unsurprising ways. She mightve been cutting edge but now it's played out. Every girl with a FB and Twitters got an Onlyfans and a tiktok ironically covering Madonna and many of the Nikki Minaj clone songs whilst being so brazen. The legacy has become who can out brazen the other with as little talent as possible and max shock-factor and borderline x-rated material.

It depends of if one likes music or the artist.

Sex sells right

Many singers without a beautiful voice can have a long career, we have plenty of them. It is not always the voice. Personality, good stage performance can do the trick.

@TheBarbraStreisand1, no sweetie, good music sells, i never went to buy Madonna's music cause i saw her tits. I went to buy her music cause its amazing

As a Scorpio I love Leos

That... but what really shaped her personality and she has said this a few time, is growing up in a big family. She had 9 siblings and she had to grab and take versus waiting for things or else it wouldn't happen.

seriously tho real singing Artists dont have to do all that to remain popular and relevant to be honest it was just something she capitalized on thats all because of who she was and what roles she was playing to at the time in Hollywood

@@marih_2017 She had tons of #1 singles. The music comes first but to become a star, you have to make people fascinated with you and she did that.

Madonna used controversy to make society more open-minded, and it worked in some ways. Society ain't the same as it was in 1990 for women, gays etc, and she was one of the people that helped a lot for this to happen. Her religious controversies too. Now no one is that much shocked for someone's beliefs.

More like a nightmare now, 😂

Y’all act like she’s legendary. I’m sorry, I don’t see it.

Thats not true she never did the show again. Arsenio was mad as hell after the show. Jet magazine had reported he cussed her out and yelled out who the hell does she think she is to tell me my hair style is tired.

what are you on about? she went on his show again 2 years later

urbanflavorz she went on his show two years later with Rosie O’Donnell.

urbanflavorz what?

@Blondie dag She got defensive because he was asking VERY personal questions about her relationship with Warren Beatty. If he doesn't like when guests fire back and play the same game, maybe he shouldn't have been so invasive with his questioning.

This was way before internet obviously there was no way to see this stuff online

@divina6 let me just answered this.. As a journalist it's my job to dig and victims that said under oath that the abuse started when the whole family was in vacation in grand canyon (now proven with the leak testimony of W.R) that he went with them and the other one with the detail abuse in a train station that wasn't built.. I'll wait. Leaving neverland ommited a lot of contradictions and a lot of information (why robson shop for a book deal and when it didn't work, he went for the lawsuit. The other oneremember he was abuse when he was Robson on TV. They have the same lawyer, met before leaving neverland etc . Etc (all court document)..etc.. Plus they lied in their lawsuit and the judge acknowledged it (again all public).. Victims don't have to lie to prove their point..

Calin Vaquero why sad..... we are all people here but some dont know they are

Madonna's I.Q. is approximately 160, or more. Technically, she is a genius. All the negative comments, and opinions about her are the result of green envy, and insane jealousy...... period. You wish you had her body, her looks, her innate talent, And, last but not least, her money and business acumen. Haters go away. Men in the entertainment business do what she's being accused of all the time (promiscuity). These men act like pigs..... The very biggest of dogs. Because she's a woman and acts like the sexual being she is, all the stiffs are having a problem with it? Piffle.

Amen, she's totally genius otherwise she wouldn't last 30 years in the music business

LOOKS LIKE PURE TRASH!

She had so many good looks througout the years. She was always reinventing herself.

She looks extremely white here. Her face look almost as The Joker

Talking about Madonna she did amazing but we had many before her too

Mark I know right? ageism sucks

One thing is true about Madonna. She is super comfortable when she knows she is (be)loved. When she doesn't feel loved enough she gets very nervous and desperated. She doesn't know how to deal with unpopularity. And all that reflect in her music, interviews and even in the concerts.

@@noemistephanie93 I remember this interview I was 13 now I'm 43

Its a sad truth for all stars...

Hello Skinny She doesn’t know how to deal with not being popular, yet she is still here 37 years later.

She also did an album in 1992 Erotica and she came out with a book called Sex. It was huge back in 1992 and now its 2022 its been 30 yrs since that happened. Madonna is the Queen Of Pop and she wanted to rule the world and she did. She started back in 1979-2022. That's alot of years to hold yourself high. I want Madonna to do an album with Kenrick Lamar she mentioned she would like to work with him***

Repartee is what they shared. Worked out too. My favorite movies by her remain Desperately Seeking Susan and A League of Their Own. (I know she didn't have many scenes in it but when she was onscreen she outshined even Gina Davis IMO, something not easily done given Gina's own presence and beauty)

​​@@Choices2aaMichael Jackson ruled the world not Madonna she was Always jealous of Michael

Actually, she was in the midst of her Blond Ambition Tour when she appeared on Arsenio. She had already completed the Asian portion of the tour and was embarking now on the U.S. leg. What people don't realize; is a lot of movies are in post production right up to the moment they are to be released. This is why the footage looked a bit rough. Though, she had finished her part in the movie the year before in 1989. In fact, much of the principle filming was completed in May of 1989 with the exception of some call backs in the summer of '89. That all said, she spent much of early '90 finishing up her I'm Breathless album, filming Vogue and tour rehearsals. You are right. She was in promotional mode. She was contracted to promote Dick Tracy, so she appeared where the demographics suited her most (the young hip Arsenio Show). But yes, she was at the height of her career by this point. The roller coaster ride of her career was soon to come, even though she still made huge impacts for years to come.

You're absolutely correct! What I meant was, yes, she was about to launch the U.S. leg for which I attended the L.A. Sports Arena stop with Technotronic as her opening act. 1990s was a huge year and looking back now she was barely scratching was was to be another decade of greatness.

And Prince.

musicaltheatergeek79 no, Prince was really the 80s.....U forgot Janet and Mariah!

Mariah didn't even start her career until the '90s. So there.

musicaltheatergeek79 but Mariah still outsold him, and has more number 1s so ur point is??

*Mike Mike* my point is that *Giovanni Alexander* said "superstar of the '80s and '90s" and Prince was huge in the '80s! Prince, MJ, and Madonna were like the Holy Trinity of Pop during decade. Mariah came later, so she's one of the '90s superstars.
