The media really makes Madonna look like she's out of control and crazy but she's not. She's very intelligent and is quite aware of the world she is in. She has brought happiness to millions of people through her music and her humility.
I hate how gays have abandoned her just because she's older now. The day this woman transitions to the great beyond, which I pray with fervor won't be anytime soon, I will mourn for the rest of my life. If it wasn't for her generous heart to inspire people to be themselves authentically, I would not be here today.
Madonna is literally the last one standing from an era of greats that no one born post 90’s could ever comprehend. When she broke into the industry mid 80’s she captured global attention. The height of fame and the whole media frenzy that surrounded her, for years, hasn’t been recreated by any single star since, even with the power and assistance of social media. Just take that in for a second, She’s a legitimate icon, the true queen of pop. She’s reinvented herself countless times but every time she’s got it right both musically and aesthetically. She’s evolved so much over the course of four decades. It’s great to see her picking up an award but she definitely deserves way more recognition for her achievements within the industry. I hope in the next couple of years she agrees to do a sit down, in depth interview looking back over her life, all of it, the good the bad and the ugly. It’s was great to see Andy Cohen sat back laughing his head off, living his best life too he’s also great at what he does.
I was 12 years old when Madonna hit the charts. I was a gay boy in small town America, scared (almost) to death that anyone would discover my secret. I can't exactly explain why, but it was Madonna and her spirit, her music, and her aura that made me comfortable in my own skin. I am probably still alive today because those scary, difficult, formidible years in this young boys life happen to coincide with Madonna's meteoric rise and her influence on culture and society. She was the life raft that just happened to be floating by at a time when I was drowning. Or maybe, just maybe, it was more Divine than just lucky timing. I've never written these words before, but its high time I did; Thank You Madonna for everything.
It's because her music, live shows, art, her rebellious nature, it all represents freedom. At its core that's what her message is. Whether she's singing about relationships, sex, keeping her baby, dancing, that's what you're having trouble putting your finger on and explaining. That's why people love her. But this is also why people can't stand her. Some people can't stand people being so free and not giving 2 f***s and helping others be happy. That's usually religious people 😅 coz they're so caught up in they're rules
@@soaribb32 Gaga, Rihanna, Ciara, Katy, Miley, Kesha, and so many more underrated ones (save for Gaga. I’m surprised she wasn’t listed already, she’s practically the closest to Madonna besides actual Madonna)
I was 18 years old when Madonna released her EROTICA album and that piece of music became my soundtrack of coming out as gay. She was the one to told "me", that it was okay to be gay and not to be afraid.
I can’t hardly describe how much I love Madonna and how grateful I feel for being her fan,she really help me out to be who I am now, since growing up in a small racist town in Mexico isn’t easy whatsoever but listening to her music, interviews, documentaries supported / inspired me to get through. I love you so much Madonna, can’t get to see you #TheCelebrationTour
Sometimes I come back to this speech to feel something. She truly makes some great, heartfelt speeches. You can hear a pin drop during certain moments.
Beautiful, inspiring, a trailblazer! I'm so happy that she ot this recognition and also the Billboard Woman of the year award, because for so many years she was neglected, ignored, bashed for speaking up, but now it is time to celebrate this woman!
Recently, I came out to family members, who I thought would support me unconditionally. I was wrong: because when I invited them to my wedding one stated it was against their religious beliefs, that same sex marriage was against the Bible. I found their stance to be hypocritical, and their ideas antiquated and closed minded! Madonna has always inspired me with her music and her 16:46fearlessness to stand up to bigotry prejudice, homophobia and oppression.
Madonna, your words, truly spoke to my soul. you are strength compassion and most of all love. Your fans adore you and love you from the bottom of our hearts and depths of our souls. I thank you for being you. Man, I can't stop tearing up. The best speech besides Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" I have ever had the utmost pleasure of listening to. Once again thank you. We love you
If a person tells you she has gone off the deep end, is tragic or desperate, it tells you that person is too conditioned to be able to think critically and see a rare kind of woman who is ahead of her time.
Madonna I fell in love with your music and your beautiful soul in the 80’s and I didn’t spoke much of English so I play your like a virgin song pause word by word to wrote down the whole song until it’s completed and your pic on the cd cover was and still the most beautiful picture I have ever seen YOU ARE A BRAVE AND GOAL GETTER LADY and is nothing wrong with you being provocative and being as beautiful as you are AND we all gay people loves you and always will YOU ARE OUR QUEEN 👸and all that you had done and fight for us LGTB
She is so nervous. You can always tell when she’s nervous I truly feel like she didn’t want this award. She just did it because she had gay friends and was sick of them dying in front of her. Which, back then, was more important than an award.
No one’s abandoned her hopefully. She’s just hasn’t had a hit in a while. Guy R, Lady Gaga and Drake are really to blame for hurting her more than she’ll ever care to acknowledge it publicly. They hurt her intimately for the first while ripping her of financially and they hurt her image for the two others but no one on the great scheme of things can ever erase the truth of who she is and what she’s achieved.

*...it makes me `ANGRY´ sometimes when people (espEcially people who knOw) dAre write and talk her OFF as jUst a pop singer..?*

Plenty of gays still love her, even the new generations. It's the GP that have abandoned her.
Um where? We never stopped
The gays adore Madonna, young and old.
@@RA984U GP?
@@RA984U what's gp?
She has done more for our community than any other person ever. Queen beyond words.
She's been super vocal about gay rights since tte 80s ...... we respect you Madonna, forever queen of pop.
Yeaaah

I understand you, for me it was Xena and Buffy, who gave me the strenght... That can look stupid but that was so important.

She was and is a person I turn to for strength and reassurance. Her impact on me is truly immeasurable.
@@billmilosevski2726 Very well said, Bill, that's the truth.
She is the last remaining pop royalty
Let’s preserve her while she’s still here
We also still have Mariah, Janet, Cindy, Diana, Cher...
Michael, Madonna, Janet, Britney the only pop royalty ever

This is why I WILL ALWAYS LOVE MADONNA!!!!!!!❤️❤️❤️
This speech really touched me. We only have one life to live and nobody could even try to destroy a person’s freedom of being themselves.
Was always a Madonna fan, but never knew the breadth of her support and compassion. Thank you, Madge, you are a class act!

And that's why we fucking love this woman. Words can't even describe honestly

No one else like her around today - truly a one of a kind 😍😍
This is why I love this woman, I love you Madonna to the moon and back....... revolution

She’s so comfortable In the lgbt environment ❤ her personality and sweetness shines through. Her guard is down ❤❤
Great speech 👍
10:08 That may sound arrogant to some ears ... but she doesn't even lie with that statement 😀. Her smile afterwards is adorable 😊.
Yet and still, I love you so much more 💗 God bless BEBE!

I felt as if I had lost my inspiration… but it had just reinvented itself, thanks for giving it back to me Madonna, lots of love and respect Gav

There is only one queen and that Madonna. One of the most smartest talented and humanitarian person. My respect 🙌🏼❤️
Love that she shaded Candy Cohen 😂😂😂
Thank you Madonna from the bottom of my heart
If a person tells you she has gone off the deep end, is tragic or desperate, it tells you that person is too conditioned to be able to think critically and see a rare kind of woman who is ahead of her time.

Adults are the biggest bullies around, no wonder some kids are!
Yes, especially the older generation of adults compared to adults of millenials and gen z for sure.
Bravo bravo what an amazing person
LONG live the queen 👑👑👑

Madonna and Rosie's friendship ❤️ damn
Diosss, es que la impotencia que tengo en estos momentos de no saber inglés 😭
Amazing😊 I've never been to a gay bar I'm sure it awesome 😊 everybody is free to be who they want to be 😇

She is so nervous. You can always tell when she’s nervous I truly feel like she didn’t want this award. She just did it because she had gay friends and was sick of them dying in front of her. Which, back then, was more important than an award.
She really LOVE the gays and that's beautiful
I love you!! 😘

The one only Queen Madonna
She’s the best
The only thing that’s missing is Courtney Love

I have not
"that's not true"

??? What ?
@@Fredange3131 what Rosie and Madonna said to each other lol
Why is M fawning over Cohen? What has he done for the LBGTQ Community? UGH...
2 moments where she interacts with him is fawning?? Ok Karen. 🤦♂️

She’s still looking like Madonna here! But I’m not sure now!! All she’s doing to her face!! Damn.
After hearing a speech like that you're still worried about how she looks like? Wow...
@@ALambInTheWorld yes people are rude and stupid
joe Garcia’s mama don’t love him.
Buy a brain and use it
She doesn't need to look like anything, just hearing what she says and you can say that's her!
Love her but girl. That surgery is not the look
Advocate for crap fillers too
Shut up
Absolutely right!!!

Let’s all examine your face first. Just to make sure you’re actually qualified to be shaming people.
