For me it was when John kept putting his hands in Ramona’s face and was dismissing her. She’s by no means my favorite, but I don’t dislike her and I think John was absolutely disgusting before this. This was the cherry on top and made me really say, “That man is an f-ing scumbag.”
I don’t think we talk about it enough. After rewatching the Reinvention tour I realized for each act she was truly giving 100% and going full force with every single song.
I’ve seen her live 3x now and I’ve alway said MDNA and Confessions have been my favorites. However, Reinvention has some amazing power that truly puts this tour at the top of my list of all my tours.
Majority of us love to love Blonde Ambition, Confessions, and MDNA, but Reinvention is definitely on its own level and caliber.
She was not playing around. The entire first act she was going hard and she kept the momentum going. From beginning to end she was vocally outstanding (yes, some songs had some form of autotune, but she made it seem ethereal and out of this world).
The setlist was impeccable. The dancing was top notch. Madonna was MADONNA. The crowd was living for it. The dancers were on point from second 1 to hour 2.
Do I think it surpasses Confessions or MDNA tours? No. But I simply think it belongs in the same realm.
What do you like most about Reinvention Tour?
I’m rewatching this episode from S3 because I wanted to see Monica Chacon get asked to leave, but I totally forgot about this scene. The way Teresa just stands there like, “God. I married this??” 😂 Holding that damn gift. 😂
(ignore my glass of wine)
I personally think of this quite often. Ever since Ra’Jah O’Hara and Brooke Lynn Hytes IMPECCABLE “Miss You Much” by Janet performance I created a list of songs I’d like to lip sync to if I were ever on the show. Many songs come to mind, but damn, I really wanna perform “I Think I’m In Love With You” by Jessica Simpson just because of how well those two queens did “Miss You Much”.
What song do you want to see on future seasons?
There’s been plenty of mashups with Madonna songs, but I really like this one. Melanie’s lyrics with the tones from “Celebration” are fantastic, in my opinion.
What’s your favorite mashup?
I know this will never reach them, but I want to share my thoughts. Hi, I am Vampire_Jellyfish91. I will be 35 this July. About 10 years ago I left my boyfriend not realizing at this point in my life how much I would truly miss him and regret ever breaking his heart.
We didn't have conflict. Neither of us cheated on one another. I left him because I felt I wasn't good enough for him. I felt I couldn't support him the way he supported me.
This man would bend over backwards for me. I didn't move in, but he cleared half of his dresser and closet for me. He paid for everything. Took both of us to everything. He gave me one of the BEST surprise birthdays ever when I turned 25. I am a huge fan of Madonna. For my 25th, I was told we were going to a special dinner. The ladies I worked with hyped me up and were excited to hear about it. Little did I know he had something else planned. My coworkers even knew.
I showed up at his apartment dressed for an elegant dinner. However, I was greeted with every single one of my best friends. Roughly 15 people jumped out and said "SURPRISE" as I walked in. Immediate shock and surprise, I then noticed the apartment was decorated in Madonna all over. I was beyond happy and thrilled. Forget dinner. My friends, my loving boyfriend, and a night of Madonna all for me. I will never forget how amazing that birthday that was. The next day at work, my boss (we will call her Maria), was joyed to know how much effort he put into it.
We had been dating for about 6 months at this point.
Fast forward to a few months after my 25th, almost Christmas, I decided to call things off. I genuinely have no idea why I did other than I felt like I couldn't give back what all he was giving to me.
Almost 2 years after that I reached out and we spoke and met. Nothing happened.
I regret ever leaving this man and will consider him the truest love of my life. I wish I could go back in time. I wish he would reach out and ask to meet for coffee... I would be there in a heartbeat.
Has anyone else ever had a reflection on life and you regret a decision like this? (Not that it matters, but for further context, as a gay guy, I truly feel I lost an amazing gentleman.)
