It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

Oh No They Didn't!

No, that is not Madonna in that video below.  That's a Brazilian drag queen about to perform a recreation of Madonna's entire Superbowl performance complete with Nicki Minaj, LMFAO, and M.I.A. stunt doubles.  Everything was fine and dandy until they got to the Cee Lo Green part, because we all know Cee Lo is definitely not this hot, muscle-y Brazilian stud, pictured here.  LOL.

In either case, if you have 13 minutes of your day to spend watching some drag show that isn't RuPaul's Drag Race, go right ahead.  I just skipped through the parts I thought were okay.

Quoted: Lady Gaga on her "Born This Way" Ball Stage and Monster Pit

Prologue by Blade 7184...  Don't you think it's time we take a breath and focus on other things besides Madonna? Jesus, it's been nothing but Madonna these past few days, Madonna almost slipped, Madonna's face was plastic, Madonna is the queen of pop.  We got the point, geez.  I grew up in the 80s, and yes she's cool, but lets move on to other news...

- Lady Gaga tweeting about her
"Born This Way" Ball stage and Monster pit
"To give you a bit of insight on the design of my new tour, the central area within the stage will be known as 'The Monster Pit.' 'The Monster Pit' is General Admission only, and Little Monsters unlock it when they arrive to the arena or stadium. Entry to 'The Monster Pit' is relegated to the fans who have arrived first, waited all night, + dressed to 'Ball.' Every night Haus of Gaga will choose fans from The Monster Pit to come back stage + meet me! These tickets are NOT more expensive. Reading your questions :) No dress code requirement. 'Born This Way' means anything goes."


I don't know about you, but I'm super excited about this, and I know Ryan is too.  Check out a sketch of Gaga's Born This Way Ball Stage and Pit after the jump...

Quoted: Elton John's Advice to Madonna for Super Bowl XLVI

Make sure you lip-sync good. 

Elton John‘s advice to Madonna, who’s performing at Super Bowl XLVI, on Good Morning America.

I know that Elton is still pissed because Madonna won the Golden Globe over him.  And who knows?  Maybe she didn't deserve it, but this is getting ridiculous.  She won and that's it.  Both of you are equally famous and filthy rich, stop throwing shade and get over it. Just sayn'

Quoted: David Furnish on Madonna Receiving a Golden Globe

I think it was a fluke. When this happens you have to question the integrity of the awards. Did Madonna get the Golden Globe because she attended the awards and agreed be a presenter? Can you sing Madonna’s song? Can you hum it? It’s a song nobody has heard, from a film few have seen. The award should have gone to Mary J. Blige or Elton. I like Madonna’s music, but not her movies. She should stick to what she is good at.
– Elton John’s husband David Furnish after Madonna’s movie, “Masterpiece” won the Golden Globe for best original song over Elton’s movie, “Hello Hello.” (via Towerload)

Wonder Woman & Madonna

All you gay boys are gonna love this, because what gay boy in America doesn't love Wonder Woman?  But imagine a video of Madonna and Wonder Woman together.  What more can you ask for in the repetitious twirling and spinning of our most favorite hero.

Madonna's Diva Christmas Nightmare

Back in July, we learned of Madonna's Gaga Nightmare, in August we learned of her second, but in December, Perez Hilton attends the Annual Divas Holiday Ball with "some of the biggest egos on the planet."
And this time around, there's more than just Cher, Madonna, Lady Gaga, Barbara Streisand, and Sue Sylvester attending this ball;  Katy Perry, Niki Minaj, Dolly Parton, and many others make a special appearance.

On February 5th, A Legend Will Rock America's Largest Stage...

Madonna will take center stage at halftime of Super Bowl XLVI, flanked by Cirque du Soleil performers in what traditionally is one of the year's most watched shows.

The NFL announced Sunday night, in a press release, that the Michigan-born singer would headline the halftime show on February 5, 2012, at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.


She follows other high-profile acts in recent years, including the Black Eyed Peas and Usher during the most recent edition of pro football's championship game at Cowboys Stadium in Texas. [source]

Madonna vs. Lady Gaga: The Many, Many Phases of Two Self-Defined Pop Sensations

Madonna and Lady Gaga:  two shameless pop stars willing to try anything, no matter how abominable or shocking, to secure a seat at the top of the charts (and tabloids). Some say that Lady Gaga is merely a Madonna clone, while others sing her praises as a fashionista and a perfect example of a woman who refuses to be defined by anyone but herself.  Whichever way you look at it, Madonna and Lady Gaga have gone through more phases and costume changes than most of us have had hot dinners.  We revisit some of the most memorable.
Check out Madonna after the jump...

Madonna's Gaga Nightmare: Part 2

Last month I posted the video, Madonna's Gaga Nightmare, and it was funny as hell.  In it, Madonna was trying to reboot her career, including taking her gays back from Lady Gaga.

In part 2, Madonna is at home recuperating when Gaga keeps prank calling her, and with a little help from Cher, they concoct a scheme.

The parody features scenes from Mommy Dearest and Death Becomes Her, which are absolutely hilarious.  If you haven't seen either of these movies, then some parts may fly over your head.

Most of the other gay icon characters are back, including, Bette Midler, Liza Minnelli, and Sue Sylvester.  Check out the hilarity below.

Madonna's Gaga Nightmare

This has got to be the most hilarious shit ever!  OMG!  It's a parody on all our gay icons, minus Britney, thank God!  The video titled, "Madonna's Gaga Nightmare," focuses on Madonna trying to revive her career.  So what does she do?  She calls up Lady Gaga, and simply asks her to give it back.  Gaga doesn't know who she is, and hangs up on her several times.  Madonna then proceeds to tell her, “You’ve stolen my looks, my music, and my gays and I want it back!” But Lady Gaga keeps hanging up on her. 
So she then calls up Cher to apologize for stealing the gays from her back in the 80's, but Cher doesn't want to hear any of it, and hangs up on her too.  

Madonna, can't take it anymore, and decides to go to an anonymous group which is run by "Sue Sylvester," and finds other famous icons in the support group, Diana Ross, Liza Minnelli, and Barbara Streisand.  It is absolutely hilarious.  

So how does her nightmare end? Watch the video below and find out.

Perform This Way by Weird Al Yankovic

The moment everyone's been waiting for!  Weird Al Yankovic's parody to Lady Gaga's, "Born This Way," titled "Perform This Way."

You may recall, back in April I wrote a post on how Gaga "lost it" when she was asked about the comparison between her and Madonna.  She simply yelled out, "That's retarded!"  Then a few days later, she chewed off Weird Al's head for making a parody of her song.  I suggested back then that she probably would be heading to Rehab soon, which was truly not the case.  She later apologized for any misconceptions she, and her manager may have had about the song, and gave Weird Al permission to use it however way he pleased. Here's there video:

The Joys of Being a Parent: 9 Year Old, Robert Jeffrey

Yesterday, I wrote a post about Daniel Joseph Baker, the adorable gay boy from Houston who sang one of Lady Gaga's songs on America's Got Talent.  Today I introduce you to 9-yr old, Robert Jeffrey in a video from 1991 that has gone viral over the internet.

My reasoning behind him being on "The Joys of Being a Parent," is that luckily for him, he had parents that didn't mind him being a "sissy".  When you compare this, to the show Ryan and I watched on AC360, you really tend to admire those parents who love their children unconditionally.

According to his Vimeo account, Robert states the following:
I performed to MADONNA's "VOGUE" in the Summer of 1991 when my parents took me to Hampton Beach Casino in Hampton Beach, New Hampshire. A business in the casino at the time gave tourists the chance to lip-synch to their favorite pop songs in front of a blue screen background, and I was lucky enough to partake that summer.
In honor of the twentieth anniversary of MADONNA's "TRUTH OR DARE" and in celebration of MADONNA's upcoming "W.E.", here is my nine year old self paying tribute to the woman who changed my life and continues to inspire me just as much today as twenty years ago.

Absolutely fabulous Robert! Loved every minute of it!

Gaga From Eternia! (Video Included)

If you watched the finale of American Idol Wednesday night, you may have caught a glimpse of Lady Gaga frolicking above the stage with hottie, Mark from SYTYCD, no complaints here - he's smokin' hot!!!!  And yes, Gaga was in an incredibly outrageous outfit atop Castle Grayskull! LOL.

For those interested in knowing... Mark Kanemura's post from May 12th is currently my most viewed post of all time with 2,700 page views, and it's only been 2 weeks since I've posted it.

While Gaga's monsters loved her performance last night, many thought it was a bit risque for American television audiences.  Thank God, this isn't Germany, otherwise we'd be watching men playing with each other on live TV.  The Mother Monster performed her "Edge of Glory" track, and it was utterly fabulous!  Better than the original recording in MHO (my humble opinion).

A few words from the hypocrites.
I think Lady Gaga is great! She's talented and fun. But AI is a show that is supposed to be a family show. How many viewers were little kids whose parents let them stay up to watch the AI finale? Gaga is just too sexual for little kids to be watching. Lauren and Scotty said that they have been watching AI for 10 years - that means that they were 6 and 7 years old when they started. How many 6, 7, 8 and 9 year olds were watching last night? Probably loads of them, and they were watching Lady Gaga in sexual positions with a man on top of her, under her, etc. Give it a break American Idol. Allow kids to grow up in their own time and keep the show family friendly.
I find it so hypocritical that it's okay for Britney Spears to kiss Madonna on live television with their tongues down each other's throats, and then Britney kissing Rihanna recently, but Gaga plays with a young man, nonetheless, and it's blasphemy.  People are fascinating. This whole thing has been going on since Elvis was shown on TV from the waist up. She's talented, but she's also smart enough to know what gets people talking. Here's a popular young singer making 'suggestive maneuvers,' Puritan prudes outraged by it. LOL, and it'll be going on 100 years from now, too.

Let's watch the performance, just for everyone's sake. ;-)

And If The Queen Says It Shall Be, Then It Shall Be! - Part Deux

Who knew I would be using the same title for another post?  

Lady Gaga made that statement on the Jay Leno Show, back in February, when referring to an email from Madonna and her people wishing Gaga luck on her latest single, "Born This Way."

This time around I'm using it, because If the queen (Lynda Carter) says it shall be, then it shall be!  On Friday, Mark Malkin from Entertainment Weekly sat down and talked to Lynda Carter and here's what she had to say...

"I think she looks fabulous," said Carter, who originated the role in the classic (and oh-so-campy!) series in the mid-'70s. "It's a new look and, jeez, her body looks fantastic."

Carter wants everyone to give Palicki a chance.
 
As hard as it was to read, I'm siding with Lynda on this. I'm going to give Palicki a chance, if not for David E. Kelley, for the original Wonder Woman herself.

3 Divas


What do Madonna, Lady Gaga, and Barbara Streisand have in common?

That in order to be successful and a true Diva means to take control of your surroundings.  Who gives a shit what anybody says or thinks about you.  

Can I hear an "Amen" up in here?

And If The Queen Says It Shall Be, Then It Shall Be!

Gaga appeared on Jay Leno last night to make some clarifications.  And as I have mentioned before, musicians have always been compared to those before them.  Hell, even Madonna and Cyndi Lauper were compared to each other back in the 80's.  Tiffany, Debbie Gibson, Whitney Houston, Vanessa Williams, the list goes on.  Live and let live people.

First, Gaga sets the record straight and tells Leno that the contraption she was carried in was not an egg, it's a “vessel.”  And I can see that, because she was wearing some alien-looking prosthetics at the Grammys and on Leno last night.

Second, for those who think that animosity lingers between Madge and The Lady, Gaga clarifies,  ”There is really no one that is a more adoring and loving Madonna fan than me,” and she makes it perfectly clear, “I am the hugest fan personally and professionally.”

And Finally, with her biggest statement to date, she continues with an astonishing adoration and shuts everybody up, “The good news is that I got an e-mail from her people and her,” Gaga says, “sending me their love and complete support on behalf of the single, and if the queen says it shall be, then it shall be.”

Here's a clip from last night's Jay Leno show.  I also recommend watching the first part & part 3 down below.

The Black Madonna

Hmmm, not sure how what to make of it.  I know it's Art, but is ironic that Madonna once considered naming one of her albums the "Black Madonna."

A loyal Madonna fan decided to imagine what the cover may have looked like.
