Billboard is very shady with Madonna.took days before the official channel uploaded madonna's speech. They change chart rules when new madonna songs get released. They also make a lot of articles when she "flops", but when other artists do less good than her, they ignore it. On the other hand they give her this award so SOME people there like her. But trust me, they are weird and two faced with M lol lol
ML VC that's right her songs have done well until the American life period and I guess that pissed them off! Like she says it's controlled by men!! Madonna is brutally honest and that is why Love her!!
OMG this unedited version is even more powerful than the one Billboard uploaded! Why did they chose to cut her words about gay community and AIDS crisis back in the 80's??? It is so important to a new generation to know all these things! I swear to God, this woman has done so much for us and they couldn't extent their video on their youtube channel so it's actually a full and complete speech??? She is so brave and I have no words to express my admiration to Madonna. She is truly one of a kind and noone can come even close to what she has achieved.
At long last, the full speech! Thank you for posting it! Shame on Billboard for censoring Madonna's speech and butchering the context of her words. I can't believe how much they cut! It's a downright insult to her.
One thing nobody can take away from Madonna is her authenticity, her honesty and her integrity. I've been following her since 1983 when I first heard her on the radio, her voice just stood out, her tunes were catchy and danceable. When I first saw her on MTV I thought that girl has got something and yet girlfriends of mine at the time were not impressed, as were many of the general public and the church in Ireland. I loved her boldness, her rebellious streak and her ability to shock, I could see what she was doing, tongue in cheek, sassy, sexy, gorgeous and talented, with a huge drive and determination. Every boyfriend I dated hated her, bar one. I would argue her case and tell them that they were being prudish and boring, even belting out her tunes to further annoy them hee hee. Madonna is a soul sister to women all over the world, women who have had to put up with abuse, women who were made to feel like second class citizens, women who were without a voice. Madonna was that voice and she still is that voice. She is a true artist, very emotionally intelligent and is here to make her point, through her art and leave her mark. Thank you Madonna for your inspiration and your creation. I feel like I know you as many others no doubt will feel the same. Your art speaks a thousand words and more
What an amazing, accomplished, intellectual and inspiring human being Madonna is to women and men globally! It astounds me that people, still to this day, (34 years later) comment that she's either A) over B) not talented C) irrelevant D) old or whatever ignorant banter comes spilling out of their mouths...this strong and independent living legend who has broken every rule and record on the books has proven them wrong with each passing year! She truly has nothing to prove to them, you or I or even herself anymore at this point, because her legacy speaks for itself for many years and possibly centuries to come! What a beautiful & brave speech from a beautiful & brave woman!!!!
Most smart and sophisticated people know that she's quite brilliant. The idiots talking shit about her only see her from their surface viewing strategy, like the fools that only look at the pictures but don't read the book or the captions
Thank goodness I saw the full speech. TMZ (that nest of vipers) have a headline stating Madonna Boasts About Outliving Michael, Whitney and Prince, then they play that brief segment where Madonna says they're all gone but she's still standing. Talk about twisting her words for a headline, but I'd expect no less from the likes of them. Great, powerful speech. Thanks for posting.
This speech is truly inspiring , she paved the way for the female stars of today , I was a young girl when she burst on the scene , I loved her then and I love her now . Can't wait to see her in concert again , hope she continues to piss off the people that criticise her by sticking around for many years to come
Thank you so much Lola (and the other fan who shot this) for doing justice to one of the most powerful acceptance speeches of all time. I just can't get my head around the fact that the official Billboard TH-cam channel would upload a heavily edited version of this, thus completely missing the point of giving this award to Madonna in the first place.
I know, right? I've been looking for the whole speech ever since she made it, and I can't believe how much Billboard cut from it! All that was cut was so relevant.
"But to the doubters and naysayers and everyone who gave me hell and said I could not, that I would not or I must not, your resistance made me stronger, made me push harder, made me the fighter that I am today. It made me the woman that I am today.❤️
Love Madonna so much!! This speech was amazing and so glad I got to see the full thing..She deserved this award very much, not just in 2016 but for every year since she started out...She's just done so many amazing things!!!
Wow. It’s quite extraordinary to listen to this speech. Because everything she said is true. Whoever is old enough to remember what she constantly has been true.... I mean as long as I remember the media and the people always had something wrong to say about her and yet she was creating the pop blueprint for the entire industry. What an amazing career, a catalogue of songs no one can have in the future, a performer that has been putting so much into her tours, reinventing herself and her hits and choreo, a artist with opinions she is never afraid to express. I mean really no other female artist can relate. She’s witty, often ironic, she never played the phony and shallow game of the media and yet she has been a legend breaking all kind of records. The Queen Of Pop 👑🔥❤️
She hit the nail on the head with feminism and sexual fantasies! Absolute legends, made me think about Kim catrall and Samantha jones character! Absolute genius
Thank you for posting the UNEDITED speech! I first heard the speech as Billboard released it. I hate that they would cut so many important moments - important things said.
After almost 3 years later this speech is still the best from her to me, she said it everything and this FULL VERSION is much more powerful and make the story better, because is complete without stupid editing and cutting one of the most important parts! What the fuck was wrong with Billboard to cut such a beautiful speech? Maybe they don't like Madonna very much but at least if you're giving an Award to someone who is the Queen of Pop, the best female recording artist of all time, you can RESPECT that person. That's all she needed, support. She said it so many things which I didn't know about her, and God and she only know how many things happen in between. I love that she is totally honest, she is a bit ironic but between the lines there is the truth. Naked and bare, she is saying what she did it, how she did it, and how much effort, time, energy, sweat and tears you need to put into something to create it so that thing can exist and after all, there are those people trying to bring her down! Why? She never stole anything, she does not hurt anybody, she is just speaking her mind! And expressing her point of view of the world and life in general! One of the best things about this speech is that she put it her whole life and career into it, and yet it sounds a little bit tragic and traumatic. She is still here, let's celebrate that she is STILL ALIVE, many great artists died but I'm glad she survived every storm on her way. Long live the Queen!
Excellent Lola ! Thank you so much for posting this... They cut out so much of her great great , important speech... i was trying to find the whole speech and i couldn' t...And now....here it is, thanks to you ...You are super and i thank you again and again. It was very rude to try and gag Madonna again! This speech is such an amazing speech...is a soul deposite and very honest and true and i can' t believe that they cut parts of it. Very important parts... SHAME ! Thank you again
MADONNA. A threat to the weak-minded bigots. Madonna resembles your off switch to the merry-go-round mindsets of your twisted reality. To the rest of you, you are amazing! May Madonna's words and countless moments of true wisdom live on, as it seems that some woman replying to this post need a wake-up call... Thanks for posting this video!
I know I'm not the only one dreaming about it but the dream of my life is to spend at least a whole day with her, hug her, talk to her and expressing her how she influenced my evolving as a person. I'd like to ask her questions about many lyrics of her songs, comment them and talk just about everything. And then I'd ask her to pay my mortgage (kidding). I truly love this woman, sometime I even don't like her just like a member of my family..
Thank You so much for this, I was looking for the real full speech, this is so powerful emotional speech. I respect Madonna and love her more after this, she's such a strong woman and role model.
Peter Edwards 'Madonna has strived & will outlive them all' she is a True Survivor & Living egend 'Living 4 Love, Not Gona stop...Love's gonna Lift her Up !!!
A lot of the stuff edited out about knowledge having to be earned, having a process, having something to say to the world and to trust and believe in yourself were the most important parts of the speech.
Thanks Lola very much for sharing the awesome video. Just want to be 120% sure, so you shot the cell phone video yourself and it is the full speech (the resolution is a bit low so I just want to hear you confirming it)? Frankly I'm really thrilled to hear the speech in the way Madonna delivered it. Based on your video, the various textual "transcript" I read online have missed quite a lot (e.g. her daughter was mentioned but none of the transcripts had that). And the Billboard video looks more and more like it was edited out of sequences now, on top of its beeping censorship! P.S. No wonder I read headlines of Internet Archive Moving To Canada Over Censorship Fears. #fail #madness
I am so thankful to have been able to watch the UNEDITED version! My respect for Madonna has grown immensely. Censorship has made propaganda so much easier to spread.. Censorship is great at hiding the Truth... But Truth cannot be kept hidden. It will ALWAYS make its way into the light!
Thank you Madonna. THANK YOU. So powerful and inspirational. What a woman, what a wonderful human being, taking strenght from her own vulnerability. It's just insulting they cut it.
There aren't letters in the alphabet to express or describe the awesomeness of this magnificent woman. And that is why she is The Queen. '' This is who I am , you can like it or not ''....you can love me or leave me because I never gonna stop....''
forever the queen this makes me cry my eyes out but also gives me strength and hope and when she mentions Michael at the end... Just breaks my heart everything she said was true and I'm sure this bothered a lot of people because intelligent women always do. I love you, Madonna, keep going 💕💕
Madonna my love...listen here...you were the most LOVED WOMAN IN THE WORLD at that time. Just because something is said, it does not mean it is true! I sincerely hope you know that now...YOU ARE LOVED IN MY COUNTRY AUSTRALIA AND WORLD WIDE! Big hugs! 🌈🏅🙏🤗🏺
“Put your focus on what you want to say to the world, not what the world has to say about you”: she has learned that and that is such a good advice to all.
I'd love to, but won't I be blocked for "spam"? and if billboard finds out, they'll delete my video in no time. hence not being too detailed in the title. (if I'm wrong, I'll gladly share it)
Lola, I am not a lawyer and definitely not a US copyright law expert but I had to read Canada Copyright law and the leading Canadian Supreme Court case (again) to fight an unfair copyright claim against three of my news report videos which I ultimately prevailed and my video reports were bought back to live by TH-cam. Allow me to make a few brief guesses/observations: 1) The original video has a good chance (I am not a gambler but I am willing to bet US$1) to stand as "Fair Use" under US Copyright Law protection for it likely qualified as "news reporting" and non=commercial. (Note: There is a detail page re "Fair Use" on Wikipedia that can give you some idea and I think it links to some leading court cases like Lenz v. Universal Music Corp.(the "dancing baby" case) 2) Having said the above, I remember you telling me this is not your video thus not really your video and making it an one step removed use. But, in this case, I am still willing to bet a penny that you can probably still "Fair Use" it. And I will definitely recommend you give the video proper credit/attribution here as best as you can. Hope this help. Again, I am no US copyright law expert. :) Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! May free speech grow strong in the new year even all signs point to the opposite after Jan 20th, 2017. And even Facts (the non-profit internet archive) are moving to Canada just in case they get Trumped!
Those 6 minutes Billboard edited out are very crucial... why did they do that? The full speech makes her so loveable and relatable

💚 You've said it all!!!
I'm wondering why these men like your boyfriend hated her? are they jealous of her or what? Great comment!
I had a boyfriend who hated her too.
Perfectly stated.
one of the best speeches ever
Rosty Cosy I agree 100%
yes
I couldn't help to cry when she mentioned that she is the last one standing. That is so sad, Im not ready for that experience.

Thank you for posting this video. The full uncensored version of Madonna speech at the Billboards Woman of the year award 2016. I prefer this.
Everyone's gone but she's the one still standing strong.
"But to the doubters and naysayers and everyone who gave me hell and said I could not, that I would not or I must not, your resistance made me stronger, made me push harder, made me the fighter that I am today. It made me the woman that I am today.❤️
It's 2018 and I'm still watching this. Brings me to tears.
A new page on music history was writen with this fearless speech.
BRAVO M
This was a brilliant speech. Thank you for the full video!
And that is why SHE IS THE QUEEN.
Well this is a real speech 😀
She's adorable. Not to mention intellegent. My Queen
irina1296 what?
I don't understand your "what?". Madonna always was one of the smartest celebrities in show-biz. It's not even an opinion, it's a FACT
I like you name girl
She can be very mean, Cher was able to describe who Madonna is

Love Madonna so much!! This speech was amazing and so glad I got to see the full thing..She deserved this award very much, not just in 2016 but for every year since she started out...She's just done so many amazing things!!!
Madonna. There is no other. I will always love and respect her. Everyone wants to put her down when they should just listen and learn.
Madonnas holds special place in my heart. No other person has ever touched my soul as Madonna. 💞
Love and respect for her from India 🎵🎵🎸🎸🎵🎵

The Queen Of Pop 👑🔥❤️
i could never relate to her for being so unkind to new stars, because of her insecurities and because she is vain and mean.
@@melisagalvalizi6982 she is certainly not unkind. Have you got examples ? She always reaches and helped young stars.
I'm so amazed that her words are so crystal, coherent and on point.
MADONNA is Epic once again! She is so WISE!!!! I am touched by her speech. Thanks for posting.
She hit the nail on the head with feminism and sexual fantasies! Absolute legends, made me think about Kim catrall and Samantha jones character! Absolute genius

Madonna Louise Ciccone should be United States of Americas next president she is a great human and ambassador for all human living . I really love her
At last the full speech! Thanks Lola

I hope those "illuminati" things do not kill her for this. She ´s amazing, powerful but most of all she´s one of the bravest woman ever.
Some people always have somethin to say about Illuminati, etc and they really don't know everything abt her
She's their pawn; they won't do that till she starts being of little to no use to them.

and when she mentions Michael at the end... Just breaks my heart

“Put your focus on what you want to say to the world, not what the world has to say about you”: she has learned that and that is such a good advice to all.

amazing!!!!
Over 140 IQ she is smart, damn you billboard for edit much.

I would love to work for her. I wish I could know how to send her a resume, or something.

After mentioning the legends who passed away, she didn't know that George Michael was going to die. So sad.
This was so much better than their censored version
Lola why don't you put a link to this video on the Billboard one with cut?

(Note: There is a detail page re "Fair Use" on Wikipedia that can give you some idea and I think it links to some leading court cases like Lenz v. Universal Music Corp.(the "dancing baby" case)
2) Having said the above, I remember you telling me this is not your video thus not really your video and making it an one step removed use. But, in this case, I am still willing to bet a penny that you can probably still "Fair Use" it. And I will definitely recommend you give the video proper credit/attribution here as best as you can.
Hope this help. Again, I am no US copyright law expert. :)
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
May free speech grow strong in the new year even all signs point to the opposite after Jan 20th, 2017. And even Facts (the non-profit internet archive) are moving to Canada just in case they get Trumped!
