The interview with Madonna was great. I don't understand why anyone would criticize her because I don't see any rudeness in her. The host seems really nice to her. Madonna is herself, precise and focused, but she's not black and white either. She openly expresses her thoughts, always kindly. I like her answers, they are always quality. If there's not much to say, then there's not much to say. I like that the host insists on getting answers from her. I must add that Madonna is an exceptionally beautiful woman
I never thought the host was rude… She had very good questions and for moments Madonna didn’t want to reply….i think the interviewer was really prepared, always asking with respect and Madonna looks so beautiful! Like a goddess from another planet, so beautiful tbh ❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is one of the very best and most insightful interviews I have ever seen. It took a German/ a non native english speaking interviewer to get great answers out of Madonna.
The interviewer is tenacious and thoughtful. I think the result is she gets more nuanced and rare responses from Madonna than usual. I think Madonna actually gives her a lot of leeway .
@@adamjames5027 madonna's sale was already on the decline at that point. this was post erotica era. Madonna was running to David foster for a radio hit. other than you'll see, there isn't much new on STR.
@@wokeisnonsense I love Madonna but unlike other fans I don’t excuse her rude, and she was rude to this presenter funny enough a friend told me that this man here in England has a boat that takes you to a small island he went through all the celebs Tom Jones , Kylie etc said the only awful one was guess who … yes Madonna she wanted the boat to herself , no pictures no one to approach her or speak directly to her etc she has always been a horrible human and no amount of fan sucking up changes it I know many people that have met or been near her they all say the same she was awful and rude and up herself
@@adamjames5027 I agree but she was nice briefly, during those years she married Guy and was all compassionate and spiritual. That didn't last very long though.
Madonna was absolutely gorgeous back then. A true beauty. Something To Remember was a great collection. I Want You w/ Massive Attack is one of her most underrated gems. Incredible song. And this is probably the best interview she's ever done. She asked all the questions I wanted to know.
I found the interviewer adorable in her sweet nervousness that was so evident. I think she conducted a great interview and asked questions I don’t think other, much more well known interviewers would have had the stones to ask some of the questions this one did. Good on her. I’ve always liked Madonna and I think she’s a bonafide mega star. In this particular interview though, she’s displays her intelligence and thoughtfulness so well that I like her even more. Also, I have never seen her look so crushingly beautiful as in this interview. I could not take my eyes off of her. I always thought she was attractive but in this video she breathtaking to me. The shape of her face, her nose and her hair frames her face so well. My goodness. A stunner.
This was surprisingly a great interview and i believe the interviewer presented long drawn out polite ways to get Madonna to open up , i could see Madonna go through different moods but in the end I believe Madonna was impressed with the questions and had patience to go thru it all , she even relaxed and answered “yes the younger singers are ungrateful for the path she helped open up “ hehehehe I love how she ended with a smile
She shares her soul through her work, becoming challenging for the interviewer to dig into her brain for different thoughts and processes. She's a human machine!!! Clever as F.K...
You could see and hear the exasperation in Madonna's face and voice... The interviewer said we'll start with the boring and the way Madonna swang thouse weird coments and double meaning questions was magnificent and so not boring at all.
Madonna doesn't particularly like being interviewed but this reporter really did a great job and I feel like she kept Madonna on her toes to a certain extent. I think Madonna really liked some of her questions, the ending was funny when Madonna said it was ok with that big grin 😂😆
Madonna's singing voice makes you wanna dance and celebrate, her storytelling, intimate and serious speaking voice makes you sit up and listen. Her laugh= totally adorable. Oh, and those gorgeous eyes totally inhale you.
Very awkward but interesting too, to see several of Madonna's moods in the space of one interview. I get that's she not particularly likeable here but on the other hand, I like the fact that she wasn't all fake smiles and just displayed exactly how she felt at any given moment.
Great interview. Not standard. Madonna gave in the interviewers style of questioning which made this MUCH more interesting than many that I've seen. It could have gone a different way. THESE are my favorite kinds of interviews when I'm looking for material on people I'm interested in! Thanks.
She was the queen of the ballads and some of my favorite songs ever are Madonna ballads. "Live to Tell" since day 1 & "Oh Father" also from day 1. "This Used to be My Playground" is truly a masterpiece as well as "You'll See"
This interviewer is called Heike Makatsch she is a well known actress from Germany! She was active on VIVA in the 90s! I remember seeing her doing some rare interviews back in the days as a child! I loved 90s MTV!
Bravo to Heike Makatsch (an actress who was in a long-term relationship with Daniel Craig)! That is the best interview I've ever seen of Madonna. She is always SO guarded, and so easily annoyed (which she's incapable of hiding lol), that most interviews with her are really quite dull. This one was great -- too bad it couldn't have been longer.
Yes. I learned a lot about her creative process ..... now better understand her work/creations. She is so unique, mysterious & guarded ... a creative genius ... it's tragic how the Entertainment Industry controls artists ..2023 and she's still with us!
@@rebelheart3840 I understand that this interviewer is well known in Germany, but I think thet she wasn't the right interviewer at the time. The interview is fascinating because of the dynamic between the two. I don't remember any surprises by Madonna while hearing the questions. Just A lot of embarrassment and trying to "get out" of this interview with as little damage as possible to her amazing sales and popularity in Germany.
The problem with the world is that people are misjudged based on the appearance of things. Fluency is often mistaken for competence. That is the case in every country. I consider that to be the failure of humanity. The CNN's propagana newscasters are fluent and quick in asking questions, but they don't ask good questions and they hardly ever tell the truth, unless the truth is already out there. If someone with an accent asks good questions and tell the truth, people quickly misjudge the quality of her questioning and her capacities. Madonna has been misjudged too, that is probably why she paid attention to the content of the interviewer's questions instead of just dismissing or disqualifying her. Madonna herself didn't start out her singing career practicing choir or opera, she became a singer because she had something to say. So she developed the storytelling side of her voice and not the screaming side. In a society where thick and screaming voices with choir training are almost automatically called good singers, Madonna's voice often got overlooked. It wasn't until several years into her career that people started paying attention and giving recognition and credit to her voice. She may not do opera or choir, but she has a great storytelling voice filled with emotive.
This interview was interesting and M seems challenged in answering the question but handled it well. One has to remember she was fighting on so many levels at that time and reporters had gone from being friends to enemies so I understand the apprehension. Some of us can't even face not getting sweeteners in our coffee when asked for it so I can't imagine the pressure she was under when being characterised as "a bad girl".
The "Interviewer" is Heike Makatsch, she was always a kind of nervous, (why I'm not that sure it's just because of Madonna) crazy and overacting in front of the cameras, in the typical girly style of the early/middle 90ies. We germans adored her in these days for her natural behaviour, she felt always honest and had a good humour too. Heike developed after her Viva TV days into a fantastic actor. She played several main characters in german and international movies. She was married with Daniel Craig too for 7 years.
The journalist is really giving it her all. And she comes very well prepared and informed to the table. I guess this is what Madonna respected and liked. Madonna is not a pleaser and doesn't have a need to be liked on a personal level. I have seen her being nasty to journalists who were just as nervous as this journalist, but these were not like informed or well prepared, They didn't do their research like the journalist in this video. That's why Madonna is going along with her. She respects this journalists' knowledge and the hard work she is doing for Madonna. She is taking Madonna seriously. Of course Madonna sees that the woman is very nervous but also here she is very respectful. Madonna is respecting the nervousness of the journalist. She gives it space so to say. Where others would perhaps be a bit patronising towards this woman by telling her she doesn't need to be nervous or smiling at her all the time. No, Madonna is giving here her seriousness to the journalist. Respectful and comlying by listening and giving meaningful answers.
A bit awkward to watch at first but I find this to be a refreshing change from all those rehearsed American interviews. It shows a different side of Madonna and I disagree that this interviewer was not a good one. I think she did her homework and she didn't ask stupid questions. Maybe a bit annoying at times (because she was not a native English speaker?) but she was genuine and sincere. For an "annoying" interview it lasts quite a long time, 30+ minutes. Maybe Madonna was in some weird mood that day. That's why she came across irritated or impatient in the interview, but she still answered the questions professionally and truthfully (sometimes lol).
I agree in principle. It's just that the interviewer isn't Madonna-sized at this point in her career. And even if she had good or important questions, she barely managed to contain the situation that she was actually interviewing Madonna!! And the questions came out fragmented and stammered.
@@madonnafansglobe I find those flaws forgivable. English is not her native language. Maybe she didn't have much time to perfect the questions. It's easy to be intimidated by Madonna but she last 30+ minutes with her in stride! Overall I think she did a good job!
@@madonnafansglobe People should be allowed to be nervous. There's nothing unprofessional about this. And I think that this interviewer is for sure Madonna-sized. Most interviewers ask nothing real. They are hardly informed. This interviewer studied before she met Madonna. You are allowed to be nervous. And also to be very nervous. And also publicly. And especially at a professional level.
Madonna seemed vexed that day and very much on her guard. Perhaps she is at the end of a press gauntlet or is just irritated by the questions or severely bored. She is a more professional interviewee than the interviewer. Still its a great interview because the interviewer is clearly a fan, a nervous one and asks the questions that we all like to hear. The moment were Madonna bites her lip and looks down is priceless.
Heike Makatsch from VIVA Germany was way too nervous. The interview was taped in Madonna's appartement and accompanied by Steve Blame from MTV. I used to talk to Steve about the interview some time ago. He said that Heike was okay and Madonna not mad at her. M completely understood how nervous Heike was and although it looks like it, she did not want to give Heike a hard time. 😃
Madonna is a hard-edged person, but all her answers seem credible to me. I think she was honest and forthcoming. The interviewer asks a lot of probing questions about Madonna's creative process-which I love and prefer to questions about appearances and love affairs-and Madonna answers them honestly but can't always articulate exactly what her processes are because they are not rigid processes. This conversation helps me to understand Madonna's approach to her work a little better. I don't think she is the greatest lyricist in the world, but I think she's an extraordianry conceptual artist who is serious about her creative process and inspired by other cultures and other artists, and all that comes through here. Her first comment to the interviewer-"that's not a good question"-was unkind and that's disappointing, but it's in character and probably should be expected. "Honest and unusually creative" are the best compliments I can come up with for her, and really, neither of those is a very common trait.
Thank you very much for your honest and detailed answer. And also for the fact that in the bottom line you understand the depth of Madonna's art 〽️🧿♥️👑🎀
It is important to recognize and appreciate the freedom of speech that individuals have, including Madonna. Expressing opinions about someone's actions or decisions, such as Sinéad O'Connor's entry into the pop music scene, is a natural part of public discourse. It is crucial to understand that having differing opinions does not necessarily constitute an attack or disrespect. Madonna, like any other individual, is entitled to her own independent opinions and the right to voice them. It is essential to foster an environment where individuals can freely express their thoughts and perspectives without fear of condemnation. Respect for diverse viewpoints and open dialogue is what allows for a healthy exchange of ideas and growth within society.
Madonna ressemble à Serge Gainsbourg. Le talent et la provocation naturels, la dénonciation spontanée de l'hypocrisie de la société puritaine, à la télévision notamment ! Bravo Madonna la "suivante" ❤ ! Mais elle.est une femme.
Was it just me or did anyone else notice a slight thawing in Madonna's demeanour after the interviewer mentioned how new female artists should be grateful to her for ''creating the path''? I thought that comment was the breakthrough moment.
I didn’t notice a special breakthrough anywhere. To me, Madonna seems suffer the whole way, From the first moment to the last. It's not a standards of industry that she's use to. It's not easy for artist like Madonna ❤️ to work in this kind of conditions. But I'll watch it again, and try to pay more attention to that specific detail.💋 Thanks for your comment 💕
I noticed that too, she let her guard down a bit because she started respecting the interviewer more based on the questions. I think Madonna understood that the interviewer really did her homework and recognized that. Despite the fact that the interviewer was not a non-native English speaker. I think in the beginning Madonna what's trying to suss out the situation. She wasn't sure she could trust this journalist at first. That was my takeaway.
I don't think Madonna was suffering, I think she was just being herself. I think at that time she had had some very horrible interviews with other journalists and was treated horribly by the press. Based on that it's no wonder it seemed like she was annoyed. But I also think Madonna was really listening to the interviewer, trying to understand her perspective. Plus Madonna was trying to interpret the interviewers English while also focusing on the answer to her question. That requires a lot of procfessing, and thinking.
I think that the Woman who is asking questions is a German actress, I forget her name.......... So very Smart as well ......two artists Omg Omgggg omgggg 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👍💪👏👍💪👏👍💪👏👍💪👏👍
Madonna is selfmade person, artist , she was on her own. Lost her mother at Young age and I dont think she had much od her Father. I asume he was a taf figure, so she rebel in her independency. There is all her selfconfidence from . She lernd from Life 💝🌹♥️👍💪👏👑 And self -made People are tottaly diffrent, from spoild People. I would like to see her astrology card. The time of birth and plače and date. 16.8. ?!
The interviewer went further than the standard prepared questions which the press often ask in the UK and U.S. She held a deeper dialogical style of interview. Not preformatted, but rather a more spontaneous and inquiry style interview and asking questions.
And is that bad thing? Feeling uncomfortable is what Madonna sometimes wants in people and I think the interviewer made a similar thing to Madonna...(on her way she made her uncomfortable). The Interview feels weird, but I think she did a great job..as nowadays the interview keeps making noise and that's fascinating ;)
This interviewer is such a sweetheart and I remember her from the 90s. I think once the interviewer said Fuck - You could see Madonna open up to the interviewer.
Madonna is clearly annoyed by the interviewer's immaturity and she is irritating me by chiming in her opinions which are completely wrong. And Madonna looks gorgeous here while this interviewer needs to brush her damn hair. And she keeps on touching it bc it's freaking messy. Madonna was very sweet to her while she was nervous and gave her a pass. The kinder side of Madonna.lol ♥️
More like Heikes naïveté. The interviewer doesn’t seem immature, just nervous and a beginner at interviews. However, the interviewer does manage to get her philosophies and ideas of inspiration to do music quite well. This interview demonstrates Madonnas view of life quite well here. I appreciate these interviews than those light hearted interviews from Jimmy Kimmel or other shows. It pushes artist say their philosophy and ideas which I find it intriguing.
Let’s say the Queen was really mean here! She once said she doesn’t like unprofessionals , but Heike was so young here! A little compassion wouldn’t hurt! Even a Queen can show empathy?
Yep. But Heike which I don't know and I don't think anyone in America has heard of, wasn't ready for this kind of interview. It is almost disrespectful to choose for Madonna an interviewer, however talented she may be for the future, she is not professional enough, not mature enough, and at the bottom line - a professional interviewer is expected, who can at least contain the size of Madonna in terms of Mass media.
@@madonnafansglobe she was at the time very popular in the teen community! Yeah, she wasn’t ready but that’s another reason for our Queen to be nicer to an innocent girl like her Lol we all started at some point! It’s not the only interview Madonna was a bitch! Remember the poor Italian guy lol
I think people are blowing things out of proportion. The interviewer and Madonna were fine, they just had a rough start until they got to know each other. And as the journalist was very inexperienced at that time it's to be expected. Madonna knew this woman that was interviewing her was new & nervous and was told that prior to the interview.
25:40 The intervier ask Madonna if any singer has thank her, she said no... Britney praised her and Madonna sort of mother her... Gaga worshiped Madonna, but some how Madonna called her reductive. Madonna didnt feel threatened by Britney. If I was Madonna with all respect to Britney, could I hope for a better fucking fan than Lady Gaga? Madonna you are a queen and also human. And people had thank you for your work, but it will never be enough. She is the queen of pop but she wanted to be the queen of hollywood too. Which singer is really succesful in both nowdays, and also Oscar winner?.... Madonna says in this interview: what you do in this life, comes back to you.
This was before Britney Spears and Lady Gaga, not sure what you are going on about. Madonna had people against her since day one simply because she was a strong woman in charge. Something new at that time.
🤣 she's not nightmare at all. She never, since her first interview to the Media in the US and outside the US, experienced such a low level, unexperienced interviewer. Beyond the legend there is a strict self discipline perfectionist Artist and business woman. There are minimal standard to communicate with international legend artist, and this is not one of them. I would say that in her Madonna's worst nightmares In those days, she didn't think she would face a hysterical interviewer from a TV channel who bought Madonna an interview. I understood from the string of comments here, that the interviewer is a well-known and respected TV woman today! But at the time of the interview she was at the beginning of her career and an unfortunate decision by the channel system that paid a lot of money to abuse Madonna 😉
I wish I were this interviewer so I could reply to Madonna's shady and ironic comments about the English level thing appropriately: "at least I'm smart enough to speak a foreign language unlike you, dumb ass" I swear I'd do it! Even if I've been a fan of her music since my childhood, I can tell she was full of herself and needed a reality check so badly.
Funny, you are not only absolutely ignorant as Madonna can speak English, Spanish, Italian and some French ( now) and I can guarantee you’d not have the balls to speak to this woman, like you claim. She has a near genius IQ and would rip your ass apart.
Why bad energy? Would it have been better if it was someone with the same standard style of asking/ repeating boring qestions. I know Madonna likes preparedness, but her professionalism shows even more when she is confronted with unexpected situations and unexpected type of questioning.
I don't understand Madonna's rudeness. She always try to be a bad ass. I would have left the interview after her first answer. She really has an attitude problem.
Ageism is a form of discrimination that involves prejudice against individuals based on their age. It's a very negative phenomenon because it perpetuates stereotypes and unfair treatment, especially towards older adults. In a world where diversity should be celebrated, ageism undermines the contributions and value of people simply because of their age. As Madonna fans, we know firsthand the power of staying relevant and impactful at any age. Let's reject ageism and embrace the richness that comes with every stage of life!
Unfortunately, in this specific interview, it's true. I don't know her from other contexts, but from some comments, I realized that she is a successful and respected interviewer in Germany. I think she's not the only one to blame for this interview. There's also all the network and crew that didn't say anything, but let it happened. The casting of the interviewer at an early professional stage, with the most famous and powerful pop star in the world. It's like there was someone who wanted to make the interviewer fail.
It's ridiculous. Among whom is this information known? 😂 Many of her amazing interviews over the years were such that the interviewers were women. Including, #Oprah #Winfrey, #Ellen #DeGeneres, #Cynthia #McFadden, #Eden #Harel from MTV Europe - 1991 that we personally love... and this is only a partial list.💋 What made you come up with this strange idea? One failed interviewer? Madonna also gets along with strong women easily, also in social relationships, such as: Britney Spears, Debi Mazar, Liz Rosenberg who was her personal manager for nearly 30 years, Ingrid from Miami and a long list of strong women she encourages, nurtures, promotes and maintains social relationships with very significant. She is considered a nationalist who helped the most, on a daily level, for the release of the singer Britney Spears from the long-term guardianship in which Britney Spears was imprisoned by her lovers, her family members, her parents and sister, but especially her father. In the entire history of Madonna, there is not a single light sign that indicates any problem with women. On the contrary, Madonna represents a feminism that accepts every woman as she is, whether she chooses to be very feminine or whether she chooses not to emphasize the feminine characteristics, but to humble them. She works for women's freedom and women's rights, in a way that cannot be interpreted in any case, as being some kind of problem in relation to women. Have you considered the possibility (even a 5% probability) that you actually have a problem with women and you project it on Madonna?
She was quite annoyed several times in the first Oprah interview. She likes Ellen cuz they arre related and Ellen is gay and Cynthia McFadden is a total fan.
@ len Santiago. I don't think so. She has performed live with Tylor, Milly, Britney, Christina, and she wore a T-Shirt with Kylie's name on. Madonna is not agist nor racist, and she doesn't discriminate between men and women either. Her fans are from all groups.
@@Irishgui83 It seems that the interviewer does not understand her position in the media industry, in relation to whom she is interviewing. If she was interviewing the Queen of England would she talk like this? If so, she has a fundamental disability in understanding social situations, at the very least. If not, she came off as retarded, specifically in this interview. It seems to me that she was trying to impress the audience that she dares to ask Madonna difficult questions. But the questions are superficial and her form of reference is not appropriate. Madonna, of course, has manners befitting a queen and she slipped with elegance and humor from the situation of this delusional interview.
@@madonnafansglobe she's not interviewing the queen of england though, that's a ridiculous comparison lol there is literal Royal protocol when interviewing (or meeting) a member of the Royal Family. Madonna is an entertainer. Sure, she's the Queen of Pop, but that's no comparison to actual royalty and she deserves to be treated with human respect, not Royal Protocol. Ps sorry but that "R" word : *shudders*
@@Irishgui83 It was just an example of somebody who is very respected. Not to the Official Royalty Interviewing Protocol. Think about a Prime Minister or president... Not royal. Think of Somebody who is VIP internationally. P.S. I'm trying myself to think of someone who has a similar cultural contributions like Madonna, and the only one that I think of is Sigmund Freud. Even the Queen Elizabeth II, Her Majesty, are not familiar over the Globe like Madonna and her ideas.💋 P.S.S In the state, we see the royals as a familiar people. Celebrities in England and related areas. We don't believe that there are people who are better than others. Everyone is equal in front of the law and in front of God.
how strange that we think so differently :-) I thought M was, yes felt a little caught unawares, and a bit uncomfortable at times but also I thought M was pleasantly surprised with the depth of the questions. Only my guess, of course.
@@motttjames that interviewer may be can listen.. But not to think. She’s bad at what she does. Madonna is an angel here compare to some other artists reactions that I can think of.. In such a situation. You are the mean and judgmental.🧿
I think she's great and asking very thought provoking questions. Madonna would sometimes get irritable by what she deemed to be silly questions in interviews, so she should have been happy to be asked such questions and to go a bit deeper rather than the surface "what's the best thing about being famous?" type questions. She seemed unnecessarily dismissive of the interviewer. I need to edit to add that I LOVE Madonna and I somehow love her even more when she's like this, it shows how real she is!
The (first) interview with Heike Makatch is still one of the most cringeworthy interviews I have ever seen in my life. Just imagine being a young woman of her age working on a „music channel“, being a witness to Madonnas magical music career, her musical and cultural impact your entire life and THAT is the queestions you come up with! She is emblematic of the overall german mentality and german woman! The german word „Weltformat“ can’t still barely be used on german women! She was too lucky to be able to do this interview and too stupid to speak English or hold a conversation. I was a little older than her and was watching her stumbling through this interview back then and sat there with an open mouth! Horrific. Embarrassing. Painful to watch.
I really don't agree with you at all. Thank you for mentioning the name of the interviewer. I was really eager to know her name. Most journalists in the 80's and 90's were really nervous when meeting Madonna. Heike Makatsch comes very well prepared though. She is very very well informed. And she really thought about Madonna's career and life. And okay perhaps there's no real structure in her style of questioning but that doesn't mean the questions are bad. She's really successful in getting Madonna to answer and as a result we get a better image of and insight into Madonna, her way of thinking and her creative process. Heike Makatsch's English is excellent by the way. I hardly hear an accent and I really couldn't pinpoint where she was from. Normally with Germans speaking English it's really easy to hear they are from Germany. Not with Makatsch. Yes she is very nervous. But she allows herself to be nervous. And because she is so very well prepared she keeps her act together. She still knows how to ask meaningful questions. Madonna respects her. And she respects Makatsch's nervousness. Madonna gives her space to be herself. Madonna is not a people pleaser. And I have seen interviews where Madonna would like be really nasty to journalists who were nervous like this. But those journalists weren't prepared and informed like Heike Makatsch. The only way Makatsch is allowed to talk for like more than 30 minutes to Madonna (perhaps even an hour? There are some edits in this video) is because Madonna felt respect for the woman and she recognised the professionallity of Makatsch, and the effort and seriousness with which Makatsch is conducting her interview. The nervousness is not a lack of professionality. On the contrary... It makes her human and real. Her professionallity comes through and that is why she was able to ask all of these questions. And again: her English is excellent.
@@AndreUtrecht I agree with you and i don't get what all the German bashing in the original comment is about. Heike is very likeable and at 23/24 and as a huge Madonna in a foreign language she did pretty well. Her career since then speaks for itself. She is a very respected actress now in Germany and has even starred in some international english speaking movies, including Love Actually. And most importantly if you watch her getting interviewed these days, as thats how it is nowadays, she is still the same approachable, friendly, slightly crazy woman, just a bit calmer.
I also disagree with you. I don’t think Heike is stupid. I believe she pushes her to get her ideas out. Somewhat invasive, but she managed to get ideas out there. The think she just needed to execute her questions with assertiveness.

The interview with Madonna was great. I don't understand why anyone would criticize her because I don't see any rudeness in her. The host seems really nice to her. Madonna is herself, precise and focused, but she's not black and white either. She openly expresses her thoughts, always kindly. I like her answers, they are always quality. If there's not much to say, then there's not much to say. I like that the host insists on getting answers from her. I must add that Madonna is an exceptionally beautiful woman
.💋 👑 💎 🏳️🌈 🍾
I never thought the host was rude… She had very good questions and for moments Madonna didn’t want to reply….i think the interviewer was really prepared, always asking with respect and Madonna looks so beautiful! Like a goddess from another planet, so beautiful tbh ❤❤❤❤❤❤
You know how intelligent Madonna is by the way she gets her point across.
Always 〽️♥️❌🎀👑🧿
Réfléchie, dans cette interview
Madonna vous êtes une femme exceptionnelle
Très instruite vous parlez avec tant de vérité.
Can we talk about how beautiful Madonna looks here and how flawless her makeup is?
Sure
Absolutely agree! Best look!!!
She disfigured herself with the surgeries. She looked much better when she was closer to natural.
This is one of the very best and most insightful interviews I have ever seen. It took a German/ a non native english speaking interviewer to get great answers out of Madonna.
〽️ ♥️ 🎀 🏳️🌈 🍾
@heavensemaphore It was the totality of it, including the guardedness and the questions and answers that made it a great interview.
The interviewer is tenacious and thoughtful. I think the result is she gets more nuanced and rare responses from Madonna than usual. I think Madonna actually gives her a lot of leeway .

This was surprisingly a great interview and i believe the interviewer presented long drawn out polite ways to get Madonna to open up , i could see Madonna go through different moods but in the end I believe Madonna was impressed with the questions and had patience to go thru it all , she even relaxed and answered “yes the younger singers are ungrateful for the path she helped open up “ hehehehe I love how she ended with a smile
Thanks for your comment 💕
FOEVER YOUNG AND FOEVER BEST MADONNA !!SHE FAN"S TOO !! GREETINGS FROM POLAND !!!
No Doubt 👑
To all you people saying bad things she is very talented and a very special person to be where she is today!!!!
〽️🔥🏳️🌈❌👑♥️🎀🧿
She shares her soul through her work, becoming challenging for the interviewer to dig into her brain for different thoughts and processes. She's a human machine!!! Clever as F.K...
〽️🎶❤️💞.💋
You could see and hear the exasperation in Madonna's face and voice... The interviewer said we'll start with the boring and the way Madonna swang thouse weird coments and double meaning questions was magnificent and so not boring at all.
〽️ 🎀 ❌ 👑 ♥️
Madonna doesn't particularly like being interviewed but this reporter really did a great job and I feel like she kept Madonna on her toes to a certain extent. I think Madonna really liked some of her questions, the ending was funny when Madonna said it was ok with that big grin 😂😆
Thanks for your positive perspective. So far the comments very dramatic. Welcome sweetie.💋
Madonna's singing voice makes you wanna dance and celebrate, her storytelling, intimate and serious speaking voice makes you sit up and listen. Her laugh= totally adorable. Oh, and those gorgeous eyes totally inhale you.
〽️ ♥️ 🎀 🏳️🌈 🍾
Great interviewer. Madonna did not appear too happy to begin with but by the end she blossomed

Maddona is soooo Smart !!!!! She gain europe with colobirating with europian singers 👍💪👏👏🙏🙏😱👀👑👑👑Very Smart!¡!!!!!!!
〽️ ❌ ♥️ 🎀 👑
Very awkward but interesting too, to see several of Madonna's moods in the space of one interview. I get that's she not particularly likeable here but on the other hand, I like the fact that she wasn't all fake smiles and just displayed exactly how she felt at any given moment.
Thanks for your comment 💕
Great interview. Not standard. Madonna gave in the interviewers style of questioning which made this MUCH more interesting than many that I've seen. It could have gone a different way. THESE are my favorite kinds of interviews when I'm looking for material on people I'm interested in! Thanks.
Thanks for your interesting comment 💕 ✨
I feel grateful for accounts like this tbh
Thanks 🙏🏼 a lot. This channel is not for any profit, but praising Madonna, by her fans. We are so happy to hear this kind of feedback from you.💋🪬🪩👑🎶
She has a genius IQ and it showed in this and every interview.
.💋🪬💯👸🎫
She was the queen of the ballads and some of my favorite songs ever are Madonna ballads. "Live to Tell" since day 1 & "Oh Father" also from day 1. "This Used to be My Playground" is truly a masterpiece as well as "You'll See"

This interviewer is called Heike Makatsch she is a well known actress from Germany! She was active on VIVA in the 90s! I remember seeing her doing some rare interviews back in the days as a child! I loved 90s MTV!

Bravo to Heike Makatsch (an actress who was in a long-term relationship with Daniel Craig)! That is the best interview I've ever seen of Madonna. She is always SO guarded, and so easily annoyed (which she's incapable of hiding lol), that most interviews with her are really quite dull. This one was great -- too bad it couldn't have been longer.
〽️🎀❌🧿👑
Yes. I learned a lot about her creative process ..... now better understand her work/creations. She is so unique, mysterious & guarded ... a creative genius ... it's tragic how the Entertainment Industry controls artists ..2023 and she's still with us!
Madonna is so amazing

This is a great interview. The interviewer is a non native. Nevertheless she communicates well and gets great answers out of Madonna. ❤🌾🍃
〽️❌🧿🎶👑
It's a young Heike Makatsch, a German actress. She was in Love Actually 10 years later. Here she was only 23 i think.
@@rebelheart3840 I understand that this interviewer is well known in Germany, but I think thet she wasn't the right interviewer at the time. The interview is fascinating because of the dynamic between the two. I don't remember any surprises by Madonna while hearing the questions. Just A lot of embarrassment and trying to "get out" of this interview with as little damage as possible to her amazing sales and popularity in Germany.
The problem with the world is that people are misjudged based on the appearance of things. Fluency is often mistaken for competence. That is the case in every country. I consider that to be the failure of humanity. The CNN's propagana newscasters are fluent and quick in asking questions, but they don't ask good questions and they hardly ever tell the truth, unless the truth is already out there. If someone with an accent asks good questions and tell the truth, people quickly misjudge the quality of her questioning and her capacities. Madonna has been misjudged too, that is probably why she paid attention to the content of the interviewer's questions instead of just dismissing or disqualifying her. Madonna herself didn't start out her singing career practicing choir or opera, she became a singer because she had something to say. So she developed the storytelling side of her voice and not the screaming side. In a society where thick and screaming voices with choir training are almost automatically called good singers, Madonna's voice often got overlooked. It wasn't until several years into her career that people started paying attention and giving recognition and credit to her voice. She may not do opera or choir, but she has a great storytelling voice filled with emotive.
This interview was interesting and M seems challenged in answering the question but handled it well.
One has to remember she was fighting on so many levels at that time and reporters had gone from being friends to enemies so I understand the apprehension. Some of us can't even face not getting sweeteners in our coffee when asked for it so I can't imagine the pressure she was under when being characterised as "a bad girl".
Do you really think that Madonna bothered to be classified as a Bad girl?? 😂😉〽️🎶
The "Interviewer" is Heike Makatsch, she was always a kind of nervous, (why I'm not that sure it's just because of Madonna) crazy and overacting in front of the cameras, in the typical girly style of the early/middle 90ies. We germans adored her in these days for her natural behaviour, she felt always honest and had a good humour too. Heike developed after her Viva TV days into a fantastic actor. She played several main characters in german and international movies. She was married with Daniel Craig too for 7 years.
Thanks for your very Enlightening comment 💕 ✨
They were never married.
The journalist is really giving it her all. And she comes very well prepared and informed to the table. I guess this is what Madonna respected and liked. Madonna is not a pleaser and doesn't have a need to be liked on a personal level. I have seen her being nasty to journalists who were just as nervous as this journalist, but these were not like informed or well prepared, They didn't do their research like the journalist in this video. That's why Madonna is going along with her. She respects this journalists' knowledge and the hard work she is doing for Madonna. She is taking Madonna seriously. Of course Madonna sees that the woman is very nervous but also here she is very respectful. Madonna is respecting the nervousness of the journalist. She gives it space so to say. Where others would perhaps be a bit patronising towards this woman by telling her she doesn't need to be nervous or smiling at her all the time. No, Madonna is giving here her seriousness to the journalist. Respectful and comlying by listening and giving meaningful answers.
Thanks for your comment 💕 ✨
People are just jealous!!! She is so talented!
Absolutely 👑
A bit awkward to watch at first but I find this to be a refreshing change from all those rehearsed American interviews. It shows a different side of Madonna and I disagree that this interviewer was not a good one. I think she did her homework and she didn't ask stupid questions. Maybe a bit annoying at times (because she was not a native English speaker?) but she was genuine and sincere. For an "annoying" interview it lasts quite a long time, 30+ minutes. Maybe Madonna was in some weird mood that day. That's why she came across irritated or impatient in the interview, but she still answered the questions professionally and truthfully (sometimes lol).
I agree in principle. It's just that the interviewer isn't Madonna-sized at this point in her career. And even if she had good or important questions, she barely managed to contain the situation that she was actually interviewing Madonna!! And the questions came out fragmented and stammered.
@@madonnafansglobe I find those flaws forgivable. English is not her native language. Maybe she didn't have much time to perfect the questions. It's easy to be intimidated by Madonna but she last 30+ minutes with her in stride! Overall I think she did a good job!
@@madonnafansglobe People should be allowed to be nervous. There's nothing unprofessional about this. And I think that this interviewer is for sure Madonna-sized. Most interviewers ask nothing real. They are hardly informed. This interviewer studied before she met Madonna. You are allowed to be nervous. And also to be very nervous. And also publicly. And especially at a professional level.
Isnt Maddona Italian ?! That is close to spain. We all Love spanish Music. And I m Slovenijan Slovenija 🇸🇮

Madonna seemed vexed that day and very much on her guard. Perhaps she is at the end of a press gauntlet or is just irritated by the questions or severely bored. She is a more professional interviewee than the interviewer. Still its a great interview because the interviewer is clearly a fan, a nervous one and asks the questions that we all like to hear. The moment were Madonna bites her lip and looks down is priceless.
She’s perfect here
And everywhere 🎀🎀
Heike Makatsch from VIVA Germany was way too nervous. The interview was taped in Madonna's appartement and accompanied by Steve Blame from MTV. I used to talk to Steve about the interview some time ago. He said that Heike was okay and Madonna not mad at her. M completely understood how nervous Heike was and although it looks like it, she did not want to give Heike a hard time. 😃
〽️🧿♥️👑🎩
Madonna is a hard-edged person, but all her answers seem credible to me. I think she was honest and forthcoming. The interviewer asks a lot of probing questions about Madonna's creative process-which I love and prefer to questions about appearances and love affairs-and Madonna answers them honestly but can't always articulate exactly what her processes are because they are not rigid processes. This conversation helps me to understand Madonna's approach to her work a little better. I don't think she is the greatest lyricist in the world, but I think she's an extraordianry conceptual artist who is serious about her creative process and inspired by other cultures and other artists, and all that comes through here. Her first comment to the interviewer-"that's not a good question"-was unkind and that's disappointing, but it's in character and probably should be expected. "Honest and unusually creative" are the best compliments I can come up with for her, and really, neither of those is a very common trait.
Thank you very much for your honest and detailed answer. And also for the fact that in the bottom line you understand the depth of Madonna's art 〽️🧿♥️👑🎀
"I always feel it like I was an outsider" (Talking about not be like the other american singers)
It is important to recognize and appreciate the freedom of speech that individuals have, including Madonna. Expressing opinions about someone's actions or decisions, such as Sinéad O'Connor's entry into the pop music scene, is a natural part of public discourse. It is crucial to understand that having differing opinions does not necessarily constitute an attack or disrespect. Madonna, like any other individual, is entitled to her own independent opinions and the right to voice them. It is essential to foster an environment where individuals can freely express their thoughts and perspectives without fear of condemnation. Respect for diverse viewpoints and open dialogue is what allows for a healthy exchange of ideas and growth within society.
I love this interview so much.

🤣🤙🏽
Was it just me or did anyone else notice a slight thawing in Madonna's demeanour after the interviewer mentioned how new female artists should be grateful to her for ''creating the path''? I thought that comment was the breakthrough moment.
I didn’t notice a special breakthrough anywhere. To me, Madonna seems suffer the whole way, From the first moment to the last. It's not a standards of industry that she's use to. It's not easy for artist like Madonna ❤️ to work in this kind of conditions. But I'll watch it again, and try to pay more attention to that specific detail.💋 Thanks for your comment 💕
I noticed that too, Madonna definitely softened a little, which I'm glad cuz the interviewer seems nice.
I noticed that too, she let her guard down a bit because she started respecting the interviewer more based on the questions. I think Madonna understood that the interviewer really did her homework and recognized that. Despite the fact that the interviewer was not a non-native English speaker. I think in the beginning Madonna what's trying to suss out the situation. She wasn't sure she could trust this journalist at first. That was my takeaway.
I don't think Madonna was suffering, I think she was just being herself. I think at that time she had had some very horrible interviews with other journalists and was treated horribly by the press. Based on that it's no wonder it seemed like she was annoyed. But I also think Madonna was really listening to the interviewer, trying to understand her perspective. Plus Madonna was trying to interpret the interviewers English while also focusing on the answer to her question. That requires a lot of procfessing, and thinking.
I think that the Woman who is asking questions is a German actress, I forget her name.......... So very Smart as well ......two artists Omg Omgggg omgggg 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👍💪👏👍💪👏👍💪👏👍💪👏👍

The interviewer went further than the standard prepared questions which the press often ask in the UK and U.S. She held a deeper dialogical style of interview. Not preformatted, but rather a more spontaneous and inquiry style interview and asking questions.
@@allieelectra23 Me too. They were not memorized beforehand. She just engaged in a dialogue.
And is that bad thing? Feeling uncomfortable is what Madonna sometimes wants in people and I think the interviewer made a similar thing to Madonna...(on her way she made her uncomfortable). The Interview feels weird, but I think she did a great job..as nowadays the interview keeps making noise and that's fascinating ;)
5:18 - 5:24 That look though…
😂〽️🎀❌💖
This interviewer is such a sweetheart and I remember her from the 90s. I think once the interviewer said Fuck - You could see Madonna open up to the interviewer.
Ok
Madonna is clearly annoyed by the interviewer's immaturity and she is irritating me by chiming in her opinions which are completely wrong. And Madonna looks gorgeous here while this interviewer needs to brush her damn hair. And she keeps on touching it bc it's freaking messy. Madonna was very sweet to her while she was nervous and gave her a pass. The kinder side of Madonna.lol ♥️
〽️🧿♥️🎀👑
More like Heikes naïveté. The interviewer doesn’t seem immature, just nervous and a beginner at interviews. However, the interviewer does manage to get her philosophies and ideas of inspiration to do music quite well. This interview demonstrates Madonnas view of life quite well here. I appreciate these interviews than those light hearted interviews from Jimmy Kimmel or other shows. It pushes artist say their philosophy and ideas which I find it intriguing.
Ok
Let’s say the Queen was really mean here! She once said she doesn’t like unprofessionals , but Heike was so young here! A little compassion wouldn’t hurt! Even a Queen can show empathy?
Yep. But Heike which I don't know and I don't think anyone in America has heard of, wasn't ready for this kind of interview. It is almost disrespectful to choose for Madonna an interviewer, however talented she may be for the future, she is not professional enough, not mature enough, and at the bottom line - a professional interviewer is expected, who can at least contain the size of Madonna in terms of Mass media.
@@madonnafansglobe she was at the time very popular in the teen community! Yeah, she wasn’t ready but that’s another reason for our Queen to be nicer to an innocent girl like her Lol we all started at some point! It’s not the only interview Madonna was a bitch! Remember the poor Italian guy lol
czcams.com/video/5NcMIoAJYPY/video.html
She was even more bitchy here 😅
I think people are blowing things out of proportion. The interviewer and Madonna were fine, they just had a rough start until they got to know each other. And as the journalist was very inexperienced at that time it's to be expected. Madonna knew this woman that was interviewing her was new & nervous and was told that prior to the interview.
Wow. Very interesting interview. Interviewer was deceptively probing with her poor English. Madonna is a very articulate woman
〽️🧿🎶❌
Madonna is another level above this interviewer. This German interviewer seems quite black and white and narrow in her focus.
〽️❌🎀
25:40 The intervier ask Madonna if any singer has thank her, she said no... Britney praised her and Madonna sort of mother her... Gaga worshiped Madonna, but some how Madonna called her reductive. Madonna didnt feel threatened by Britney. If I was Madonna with all respect to Britney, could I hope for a better fucking fan than Lady Gaga? Madonna you are a queen and also human. And people had thank you for your work, but it will never be enough. She is the queen of pop but she wanted to be the queen of hollywood too. Which singer is really succesful in both nowdays, and also Oscar winner?....
Madonna says in this interview: what you do in this life, comes back to you.
It's true ❤️
This was before Britney Spears and Lady Gaga, not sure what you are going on about. Madonna had people against her since day one simply because she was a strong woman in charge. Something new at that time.
So funny that she mentions Snake Eyes as her favorite movie she has made. She had a major beef with the director Abel Ferrara and trashed the film.
Thanks for your comment 💕
Madonna gave this interviewer a hard time.. as she should have ..
Absolutely 💯
She is a legend but a nightmare here
🤣 she's not nightmare at all. She never, since her first interview to the Media in the US and outside the US, experienced such a low level, unexperienced interviewer.
Beyond the legend there is a strict self discipline perfectionist Artist and business woman. There are minimal standard to communicate with international legend artist, and this is not one of them. I would say that in her Madonna's worst nightmares In those days, she didn't think she would face a hysterical interviewer from a TV channel who bought Madonna an interview. I understood from the string of comments here, that the interviewer is a well-known and respected TV woman today! But at the time of the interview she was at the beginning of her career and an unfortunate decision by the channel system that paid a lot of money to abuse Madonna 😉
So strange how appealing Madonna is in videos, but on film she is wooden and awkward. Her best role was "Evita" but it's basically a 2-hr. video.
Interesting ❤️
I wish I were this interviewer so I could reply to Madonna's shady and ironic comments about the English level thing appropriately:
"at least I'm smart enough to speak a foreign language unlike you, dumb ass"
I swear I'd do it! Even if I've been a fan of her music since my childhood, I can tell she was full of herself and needed a reality check so badly.
Thanks for your comment 💕
Funny, you are not only absolutely ignorant as Madonna can speak English, Spanish, Italian and some French ( now) and I can guarantee you’d not have the balls to speak to this woman, like you claim. She has a near genius IQ and would rip your ass apart.
Bad energy between these 2. Madonna seems irritated and defensive and the interviewer seems intentionally provocative.
〽️🪬❌
Why bad energy? Would it have been better if it was someone with the same standard style of asking/ repeating boring qestions. I know Madonna likes preparedness, but her professionalism shows even more when she is confronted with unexpected situations and unexpected type of questioning.
Madonna seems to be attracted to that girl
I think she hates her and each moment with her. She is aggressive towards her, not libidinal energies.💋

I don't understand Madonna's rudeness. She always try to be a bad ass. I would have left the interview after her first answer. She really has an attitude problem.
Ageism is a form of discrimination that involves prejudice against individuals based on their age. It's a very negative phenomenon because it perpetuates stereotypes and unfair treatment, especially towards older adults. In a world where diversity should be celebrated, ageism undermines the contributions and value of people simply because of their age. As Madonna fans, we know firsthand the power of staying relevant and impactful at any age. Let's reject ageism and embrace the richness that comes with every stage of life!
Madonna is gourgous now and then and I think this interviewer is annoying and not very professional to me she sounds rude
The interviewer is “quite” annoying … Yas
Heike Makatsch such a bad interviewer.
Unfortunately, in this specific interview, it's true. I don't know her from other contexts, but from some comments, I realized that she is a successful and respected interviewer in Germany.
I think she's not the only one to blame for this interview. There's also all the network and crew that didn't say anything, but let it happened. The casting of the interviewer at an early professional stage, with the most famous and powerful pop star in the world. It's like there was someone who wanted to make the interviewer fail.
the interviewer is terrible.

You have to understand her European background.
@@julietrask7497 oh, please, stop justifying being rude with being European. She's rude period, regardless of her nationality.
How is she rude?
@@GutoBCN what exactly is rude about her?
Madonna is known to not enjoy being interviewed by women.
It's ridiculous. Among whom is this information known? 😂 Many of her amazing interviews over the years were such that the interviewers were women. Including, #Oprah #Winfrey, #Ellen #DeGeneres, #Cynthia #McFadden, #Eden #Harel from MTV Europe - 1991 that we personally love... and this is only a partial list.💋 What made you come up with this strange idea? One failed interviewer? Madonna also gets along with strong women easily, also in social relationships, such as: Britney Spears, Debi Mazar, Liz Rosenberg who was her personal manager for nearly 30 years, Ingrid from Miami and a long list of strong women she encourages, nurtures, promotes and maintains social relationships with very significant. She is considered a nationalist who helped the most, on a daily level, for the release of the singer Britney Spears from the long-term guardianship in which Britney Spears was imprisoned by her lovers, her family members, her parents and sister, but especially her father. In the entire history of Madonna, there is not a single light sign that indicates any problem with women. On the contrary, Madonna represents a feminism that accepts every woman as she is, whether she chooses to be very feminine or whether she chooses not to emphasize the feminine characteristics, but to humble them. She works for women's freedom and women's rights, in a way that cannot be interpreted in any case, as being some kind of problem in relation to women. Have you considered the possibility (even a 5% probability) that you actually have a problem with women and you project it on Madonna?
She was quite annoyed several times in the first Oprah interview. She likes Ellen cuz they arre related and Ellen is gay and Cynthia McFadden is a total fan.

What a lame interview.
The interviewer is horrible , she is not ready to interview someone like Madonna
〽️❌🧿👑🎶
She seemed over prepared rather than the opposite.
@@Irishgui83 It seems that the interviewer does not understand her position in the media industry, in relation to whom she is interviewing. If she was interviewing the Queen of England would she talk like this? If so, she has a fundamental disability in understanding social situations, at the very least. If not, she came off as retarded, specifically in this interview. It seems to me that she was trying to impress the audience that she dares to ask Madonna difficult questions. But the questions are superficial and her form of reference is not appropriate. Madonna, of course, has manners befitting a queen and she slipped with elegance and humor from the situation of this delusional interview.
@@madonnafansglobe she's not interviewing the queen of england though, that's a ridiculous comparison lol there is literal Royal protocol when interviewing (or meeting) a member of the Royal Family. Madonna is an entertainer. Sure, she's the Queen of Pop, but that's no comparison to actual royalty and she deserves to be treated with human respect, not Royal Protocol.
Ps sorry but that "R" word : *shudders*
@@Irishgui83 It was just an example of somebody who is very respected. Not to the Official Royalty Interviewing Protocol. Think about a Prime Minister or president... Not royal. Think of Somebody who is VIP internationally. P.S. I'm trying myself to think of someone who has a similar cultural contributions like Madonna, and the only one that I think of is Sigmund Freud. Even the Queen Elizabeth II, Her Majesty, are not familiar over the Globe like Madonna and her ideas.💋 P.S.S In the state, we see the royals as a familiar people. Celebrities in England and related areas. We don't believe that there are people who are better than others. Everyone is equal in front of the law and in front of God.
Madonna is making up the answers as she goes along- it's more about her being difficult and getting attention

I think she's great and asking very thought provoking questions. Madonna would sometimes get irritable by what she deemed to be silly questions in interviews, so she should have been happy to be asked such questions and to go a bit deeper rather than the surface "what's the best thing about being famous?" type questions. She seemed unnecessarily dismissive of the interviewer. I need to edit to add that I LOVE Madonna and I somehow love her even more when she's like this, it shows how real she is!
'terrible interview. the interviewer is so ridiculous.
〽️🧿❌🎶👑
The (first) interview with Heike Makatch is still one of the most cringeworthy interviews I have ever seen in my life.
Just imagine being a young woman of her age working on a „music channel“, being a witness to Madonnas magical music career, her musical and cultural impact your entire life and THAT is the queestions you come up with!
She is emblematic of the overall german mentality and german woman!
The german word „Weltformat“ can’t still barely be used on german women!
She was too lucky to be able to do this interview and too stupid to speak English or hold a conversation.
I was a little older than her and was watching her stumbling through this interview back then and sat there with an open mouth!
Horrific. Embarrassing. Painful to watch.
That's exactly what it looks like♥️♥️♥️
I really don't agree with you at all. Thank you for mentioning the name of the interviewer. I was really eager to know her name. Most journalists in the 80's and 90's were really nervous when meeting Madonna. Heike Makatsch comes very well prepared though. She is very very well informed. And she really thought about Madonna's career and life. And okay perhaps there's no real structure in her style of questioning but that doesn't mean the questions are bad. She's really successful in getting Madonna to answer and as a result we get a better image of and insight into Madonna, her way of thinking and her creative process. Heike Makatsch's English is excellent by the way. I hardly hear an accent and I really couldn't pinpoint where she was from. Normally with Germans speaking English it's really easy to hear they are from Germany. Not with Makatsch. Yes she is very nervous. But she allows herself to be nervous. And because she is so very well prepared she keeps her act together. She still knows how to ask meaningful questions. Madonna respects her. And she respects Makatsch's nervousness. Madonna gives her space to be herself. Madonna is not a people pleaser. And I have seen interviews where Madonna would like be really nasty to journalists who were nervous like this. But those journalists weren't prepared and informed like Heike Makatsch. The only way Makatsch is allowed to talk for like more than 30 minutes to Madonna (perhaps even an hour? There are some edits in this video) is because Madonna felt respect for the woman and she recognised the professionallity of Makatsch, and the effort and seriousness with which Makatsch is conducting her interview. The nervousness is not a lack of professionality. On the contrary... It makes her human and real. Her professionallity comes through and that is why she was able to ask all of these questions. And again: her English is excellent.
@@AndreUtrecht I agree with you and i don't get what all the German bashing in the original comment is about.
Heike is very likeable and at 23/24 and as a huge Madonna in a foreign language she did pretty well. Her career since then speaks for itself. She is a very respected actress now in Germany and has even starred in some international english speaking movies, including Love Actually. And most importantly if you watch her getting interviewed these days, as thats how it is nowadays, she is still the same approachable, friendly, slightly crazy woman, just a bit calmer.
Thanks for your comment
I also disagree with you. I don’t think Heike is stupid. I believe she pushes her to get her ideas out. Somewhat invasive, but she managed to get ideas out there. The think she just needed to execute her questions with assertiveness.
Madonna is so pretentious. 😂
She's so professional.💋
As usual Madonna is rude, pretentious and not at all pretty.
