Bitch didn’t write any of that. She’s just a performer. Oh sure sure, she had a hand in it’s collaboration.

Frank Sinatra? Elvis Pressley? Beyonce was a great performer. I have no idea if she still is. She’s 43 years old and it’s tough to stay that good at such a physical discipline at that age.

Have you seen the price of those tickets and the price of goods? If our great president could lower the price of goods, people would actually show up lol

Funny, she wins grammys for her "country music" album. But as someone who drives arounfd a bit and listens to country stations almost exclusively, I never heard any of her songs played - not one!


Maybe..maybe…the country radio stations don’t want to play her music.

The people that rag on her are so pessimistic and negative. Why won’t they just embrace something new and different and positive?

This.

Madonna gets shite on a little too much IMO. Her music, especially the early stuff, was outstanding.

Country fans won’t go. Her regular fans won’t go. Not if she will only do country.

Like watching Slayer do showtunes. And not in the style of Slayer.

Much like Post Malone, if you have to announce that you are “making” a country album, it sure as hell ain’t country music.
Comparing Post Malone to Beyonce is beyond stupid. You've obviously never listened to him play guitar and sing a country song, solo. He actually has talent, even if you don't like him.

Not surprising considering the US economy is in the shitter. Expensive concerts aren’t a necessity.

Maybe he’s talented, but that country album he released a few months ago is hot garbage

I didn’t feel like having to defend Beyonce today but she’s playing football stadiums. She’s playing 5 nights at Sofi in Los Angeles. That’s probably around 300,000 tickets sold and hasn’t sold about 3,500 per night. That’s a pretty insignificant number for a venue that size.

And she actually wrote a lot of it herself too.

It’s easy to hate on Madonna nowadays because she is batshit insane and legitimately looks like an alien. But she was crazy talented for a decade in a half and earned every bit of her stardom.

Just got back from a weekend in Nashville literally 30 min ago. And even tho it was a lot of fun, there’s so many guys walking around out there trying to be an even more white trash version of Morgan Wallen with their little weird mullets and mustaches. Lots of fat arse Luke Combs looking mofos as well in their best fly fishing shirts too. Maybe I’m just getting old, but good taste in dressing has gone completely out the window. Only a few cowboy hats out there, and the live music was very meh this weekend.

Not saying he doesn't have talent, but this ear cancer takes him out of the running.

A lot of people also hold her sexual promiscuity against her. It's no secret that she's a slut but it still doesn't diminish the music she made.

It's sad she looks the way she does now. She was an extremely good looking woman in her 20's-early 40's.

Never thought Madonna was good looking - certainly not to the level of hype.
