Madonna falls over at the Brits

[cesare]

Was that '88? I remember watching it, total fucking shambles

Such cringe

 

[Orang Utan]

Nah I was only 10 then, didn't know the badge

It was umm 2011 maybe?

1989

So many years, so many Dylan disappointments...

 

[Citizen66]

I've no idea what y'all on about.

 

[billy_bob]

I think there's two different conversations going on.

1989 - Brits presenters were Sam Fox and Mick Fleetwood. Quite apart from the fact that neither of them were any use at presenting, there's a height difference of 17 inches...

Then something else about rubbish Dylan concerts.

 

[Belushi]

Dylan presenting the Brits would be good :thumbs :

The rabbit?

The only brits thing I remember was Mrs Merton asking if anyone had seen Charlie as loads of people were asking for him backstage.

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

Was the idea that the cape was supposed to be a quick release one?
Heads will roll.
Or maybe the cape holders fell first and didn't let go.

That could have been very nasty but it looks like Madge will survive another day. I understand the fall produced evidence that she was actually singing live, now that is a shock.

 

[Citizen66]

Not difficult to mute the vocal track at the right time.

 

[girasol]

Just watched it and fall doesn't look that bad. Someone as fit as Madonna can take that no probs. This is coming from another physically fit older woman who can take falls

Would have been a different story if she hit her head or used a hand to stop the fall, i.e. if she fell forward, as it was reasonably high. Think she got lucky falling in that position.

 

[girasol]

Especially when you aint got one.

That's not Madonna though, is it? She has an arse to fall on.

One word.....VELCRO..

 

[Favelado]

Innit. It's not a patch on Bill Drummond flinging meat about and machine gunning the audience, or Chumbawamba drenching Prescott, is it?

It was the machine-gunning of the audience with blanks I liked best.

Extreme Noise Terror's delicate, ethereal take on 3am Eternal was a plus point too.

"Speaking on the Jonathan Ross Show about her 'nightmare fall', she explained: 'I didn't hurt my butt but I hurt my head. I know how to fall, I have fallen off my horse many times.

'I had little bit of whiplash, I smacked the back of my head. And I had a man standing over me with a flashlight until about 3am to make sure I was compos mentis.' "

So she did hit her head...

No she's had a man standing over her with a flashlight checking she was compos mentis every since she married guy richie.

 

[Citizen66]

Being compos mentis at 3am doesn't sound very rock and roll.

That's just made my fucking day that has A work of comedy genius

That is superb.

I took me little sister to see Madonna at Wembley Stadium when she was a kid. Christmas prezzie. I'd never been to a big show with loads of dancers and costume changes and all that before. It was totally ace. I fucking loved it.

“No one would dare to say a degrading remark about being black or dare to say a degrading remark on Instagram about someone being gay. But my age – anybody and everybody would say something degrading to me. And I always think to myself, why is that accepted? What’s the difference between that and racism, or any discrimination? They’re judging me by my age. I don’t understand. I’m trying to get my head around it. Because women, generally, when they reach a certain age, have accepted that they’re not allowed to behave a certain way. But I don’t follow the rules. I never did, and I’m not going to start.”
– Rolling Stone

Doe's this mean she's now opening up her dancer-support auditions for 50+?

Whilst its certainly true that male pop stars are seen as differently as they age, if a 56 year old man was scantily clad with bikinied young girls dancing around him whilst occasionally posing for photos in which you see a tasteful glimpse of his testicles, he would be a laughing stock.
Imagine Rod the Mod posing like this today..

 

[Citizen66]

At the Grammys she flashed her buttocks and got publicity. It's what she does. Where does she go from there?

Showed buttocks - check
Flashed nipple - check
Snogged woman - check
Sucked off black Jesus - check

Maybe she had absolutely nothing planned for the Brits. Her album sales are riding on it though so falling over was the worst thing that could have happened. Absolute disaster!
Apart from everyone talking about her. Again.
