The record received universal acclaim and did incredibly well commercially. No other female artist of her generation is pulling these numbers, so the usual comparing her numbers to the hit girls of the moment are just evidencing her relevance at 68 years old. When your faves release a dance record in their late sixties, and it does better, then you can talk.

Meaningless all of them. Each year they become more irrelevant, and in a couple of decades these awards will be a thing of the past.

The flop off. Boatmates for life!

AI managed to fix her nose, but kept the terrible acting.

Now accurately and without asterisks: 1960s - Patsy Cline - Showcase (21.2M) 1970s - Carole King - Tapestry (29.2M) 1980s - Madonna - Like A Virgin (41.8M) 1990s - Whitney Houston - The Bodyguard (57.4M) 2000s - Lady Gaga - The Fame/The Fame Monster (46.4M) Norah Jones - Come Away with Me (27M) 2010s - Adele - 21 (57.3M) 2020s - Olivia Rodrigo - Sour (24.3M)

Does she? Where is it?

Not surprised one bit.

Don't know them, and never heard of that podcast. A quick search showed me they did an episode on Taylor's wedding. That tells me all I need to know about their music taste and knowledge.

Madonna did what she had to do and left, and at least got some good reaction, headlines, and plenty of memes with the Ronaldos. The takeaway from this is that a World Cup Half Time will never work like the Super Bowl. The pitch can be barely touched to avoid damage to the grass, so there's no chance they can deliver a big production like the SBHT.

Of course it is twitter vibes. How could the 106th most streamed song from 2025 right now be considered a hit?

Oh absolutely! She always delivers. She should have had the full 11 mins.

Well, if that was it, let's just take credit she was the first artist on the Fifa Half-Time Show ever, and keep it at that.

You saying this when you did the exact same thing comparing the collabs of a 50 year old female pop artist with a 20 year old.

Completely valid point from that user since Madonna's first collab was 25 years into her career, with 12 solo number ones under her belt by that stage. The collabs you listed happened when she was 50 and older. On the other hand, Gaga has been chasing collabs to sustain her career since her late 20s. There's no question Gaga is successful in her own lane, but no comparison whatsoever with Madonna's career or collaborations.

Both top tier albums in their respective discographies.

Some fanbases are really having a tough time with all the Madonna love at the moment. But an amazing time for all of us who love top quality music from the Queen of Pop.

The one where the artist cosplays as Lady Gaga circa 2009-2011, Michael Jackson, Prince, and Taylor Swift. Easy.

On a single page!

I know quality is a concept that escapes some fanbases, but calling something like Runway a quality collab is just taking it too far.

Don't forget the giant *

OT: Madonna's first collab was 21 years into her career, with a trajectory of hit after hit after hit in those 21 years. She didn't need collabs to achieve those. Others can't say the same, and sadly leech off bigger artists to keep their careers on life support since the first Obama administration.

We have to give it to good sis @Lagerfeld . They are the most proficient Liddo rage baiter on this site. Liddos immediatly give the alert in their Discord and base, and come waving awards as if they mean absolutely anything in the year of our lord 2026! OT: Madonna is 100% committed to her art first and foremost. Gaga is a clout, relevance, and award chaser first and foremost.
