The Thing About Madonna’s ‘MDNA’

The thing about Madonna’s MDNA is – and pay no mind to this one, if you are underage – the album, maligned as though it may be, works surprisingly well on shuffle. On shuffle. With a side of spark it up. I remember this one time, in Miami, when I smoked a little bit of […]

The Thing About Madonna

The thing about Madonna is, there is only one Queen of Pop, and, bitches…don’t you come for her spot. She’s still in it. And her latest LP, Madame X, proves what she’s been saying lately is true: You cannot hit a moving target. You cannot box in Madonna. There’s no pigeonholing her because she is a bird […]

This Is Our Kingdom

I tried something new tonight: I went to church. Now, I’m not religious, but I am curious and into finally forming an opinion all my own regarding worship. At a church. And Grace Cathedral down the street is Episcopal, and from what I learned watching the Sex and the City on the HBO, that means […]

San Francisco, 10.2.21

Madame X vibes last night at @clubfugazisf for preview show 11 of “#DearSanFrancisco,” a high-flying love letter to the #CitybytheBay by @the7fingers, an awesome international troupe full of stars. @madonna’s “#MadameXTour” was the last show we enjoyed pre-COVID. How appropriate to get back to it with this performance, a celebration of dance, gymnastics, and human […]

MMXXIami: The Playlist

Just the other day I was out in MMXXIami, having a daydream of Hollywood – of Hollywood, Fla. Of a chill place I’m calling Hollyweed. I saw green. I thought of hemp, hospitality, and mixology. Of possibility. Then, I woke up the boss of my reality and kept hoping. I just kept hoping. If Madonna […]

The Thing About DaBaby

The thing about the DaBaby is he said something ignorant. Look it up. DaBaby thought he was being funny/macho/who knows (who cares), when he said what he said on stage at Rolling Loud Miami on July 25, and he wasn’t. And so Madonna took DaBaby to school for it, so what more can I say […]

One More Cut

Udo Kier is coming. And he means to leave a mark. Indeed, the iconoclastic German actor – who has appeared in everything from Andy Warhol’s Frankenstein to Suspiria to Madonna’s SEX book to Ace Ventura: Pet Detective and Armageddon – is set to take a moment in the spotlight this summer, when he stars in […]

The COVID-19 Holiday Collective

We get knocked down, but we get up again. The last four years have been tough. And, yeah, by that I mean 2020. It has been a moment, and methinks it’s worth acknowledging it. So drop a pin: We are here. I am here. You’re never gonna keep me down; I’m a survivor. And if […]

Life Is a Memory

Dudes. I was last week years old, when I saw this performance of “Gambler,” from “The Virgin Tour,” by Madonna for the very first time. No. Joke. Like she does during “Nobody Knows Me,” from the “Re-Invention Tour,” this is some energetic shit. Madonna dominates her dance floor stage left; much like during the glorious […]

This Is Them

This is them. This is their time. And the kids are driving us back to the theater experience, too. Fresh off a pre-, during, and post-COVID-19 award-winning trek up the 2020 film-festival circuit, the documentary Us Kids is ready for ya. Catch it at the drive-in, when it visits your city for a very special […]
