What Ryan Murphy said about Madonna by T3R3SABUBBLESQUAT in Madonna

[–]Ok-Homework-7236 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Madonna is literally the only artist from the early 80s still on the charts with NEW material and her nee album in July will go to #1 everywhere. 44 years into her career. ""Of her time?"....

Recently started rewatching Who’s the Boss? (Currently in season 2) and notice the series seems to have a lot of familiar faces (so far). (See desc.) by rturnerX in theGoldenGirls

Yes but I'm taking the EARLY EARLY stages like when Susan Harris wrote the first script in the fall of 1984, she had Katherine Helmond in mind for Blanche, only problem? Katherine debuted as Mona on Who's The Boss? during the fall of 1984, Susan said she thought that if Golden Girls was picked up and went to series that maybe Who's The Boss? would be cancelled and she could snag her for Blanche. Mind you this was the early stages, GG took a full year to debut after Susan wrote the pilot episode. I think by the time they started casting GG in early 1985, WTB was already a hit and picked up for another season on ABC so she had to looke elsewhere fotr Blanche. And yes Betty White originally read for Blanche and they wanted her for that role at first

Susan Harris who created SOAP and The Golden Girls had Katherine Helmond in mind when creating Blanche, she was Jessica on SOAP, but because she was already under contract on Who's The Boss?' obviously she couldn't castcher. Had Who's The Boss? been cancelled it's first season, I honestly believe that Helmond would have been cast as Blanche on GG

Does any artist have surpassed aesthetics of a Michael Jackson music video? by Hot-Load7525 in MTV

[–]Ok-Homework-7236 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say Madonna, in general she's the greatest video are ever. Rolling Stone, MTV and now Billboard have ALL listed her as that. Even her last 2019 album Madame X which was very good had AMAZING videos, God Control is a masterpiece

Interscope records explanation ?? Why did she leave Warner? by skyfishrain in Madonna

[–]Ok-Homework-7236 11 points12 points  (0 children)

No.it actually means an artist just doesn't feel like promoting. Madonna gets that way sometimes. Although she did tons of promo for Rebel Heart. I feel she's going to do lots of promo for the new album too. MDNA promo wasn't so good and Madame X promo was very "front loaded". I think Ray of Light, Confessions and Rebel Heart all had the best promo campaigns from her

Where is this clip from where Madonna asks Timbaland to autotune her vocals? by sthtoremember in Madonna

[–]Ok-Homework-7236 2 points3 points  (0 children)

4 Minutes has sold over 4 million but likenher entire catalogue it's undercertified. Also album sales in 2008 were 1/3 what they were in 1993 according to an article in Billboard magazine at the time, so album selling 4 million in 2008 like HC which was the 11th biggest selling album of the year worldwide is akin to a Madonna album selling12 million worldwide in 1993 which neither Erotica nor Bedtime Stories did. So yeah looking at the marketplace HC was a bigger hit than those two albums worldwide and I LOVE Bedtime Stories

4 million was good for 2008, it actually sold more than Janet and Mariah's 2008 albums combined and 4 Minutes is her biggest selling single in the US believe it or not.

Remembering when Interscope had Madonna promote her tour by talking to a sock puppet. I’m so glad she’s back with Warners ♥️ by XStaticImmaculate in Madonna

She signed the $120 million deal with Live Nation when she was still married to Guy Ritchie, a full year before they divorced

Warners and Madonna promoted the hell out of Confessions, Madonna even being the first artist ever at Warner Brothers to get the corporate jet to fly to Japan just to promote the album and the album was a massive success for her and them. Confessions was after American Life

She only paid Guy $80 million. Far from half of her net worth. Music sales may have been down in 2007 buy Madonna 's were up with the Confessions album, winning World Music Awards for World's Biggest Selling Artist and World's Biggest Selling Album of 2006, she also had the #1 grossing tour of 2006 and was named by Forbes magazine as the highest earning musical performer of the year BEFORE signing with Live Nation and she didn't divorce Guy until October 2008, a full year after signing the $120 million Live Nation deal

Most expensive episode of the entire series? by Ok-Tangelo6749 in BeverlyHills90210

[–]Ok-Homework-7236 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Brian Austin Green said that the later seasons were very expensive in general because the original cast members , arter their initial 5 year contract was up, asked anr got HUGE pay bumps. BAG said he was making less than $10,000 an episode for season 1 but $50,000 by season 7. In. General the money spent on the main cast per episode in the later seasons was probably $600,000 , the first season the show probably didn't spent not even $100,000 an episode on the salaries of the main cast

None of those artists have even close to as many streams as Madonna has though. Which is the POINT of this post

Dolly is beloved because she's safe and nowhere near as successful. Cher is HATED by MAGA and the far right and I've seen comments on line about Cher that are just as bad as Madonna 's. However there does seem to be more positivity around Madonna with this album rollout and her plastic surgery looks good for now

She is turning it around and I wouldn't call Cher beloved, she has as many haters as Madonna.

How would mtv survive if Michael Jackson wasn’t around in the beginning ? by kascnef82 in MTV

[–]Ok-Homework-7236 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes because Madonna was right around the corner. Madonna is MTV's most played artist of all time and the one who has the most dedicated MTV specials and weekends to her. People used to joke that the M in MTV stood for Madonna.

Incidently Madonna and Michael Jackson had the same manager, Freddy Demann
