I saw this interview on air when it was screend the other week. Madonna is looking absoloutely STUNNING at the moment. She looks so fresh and gorgeous. It's like Madonna circa 1985, IMMACULATE! She is so free and real in this interview which I LOVE, bless you Madge +
See, people don't appreciate the good stuff. We have stupid pop stars being idolized for nothing more than weird costumes, and we don't appreciate this amazing woman. thank God Madonna is around. She has brains to think about issues, and she has the balls to speak her mind. But she's the only one out there, all the other "artists" are only entertainment, but they don't really teach you anything. Madonna is a rare gem.
She didn't go to the Ellen to get publicity, she did it to raise awareness. If you're really saying that she is talking about gay rights only for publicity/out do Gaga then you need to realize Madonna stood up for gay rights before anyone else did. Her personality is real, you're just a Gaga fan who doesn't understand. She said nothing bad about Elton, it is always Elton who goes and attacks her even though she will win(much like she won the Golden Globe)
Exactly. Madonna makes a very good point too.Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.So true.People who post hate messages regarding Madonna on youtube and other sites are doing exactly what Madonna talks about in this video.Judging others.
That is very well said! I also agree with you about the Madonna and GaGa comparisons - they're so unimportant, especially in connection to this specific interview.
" You've got to get through the rough patch of feeling like you don't fit in.." Truer words where never spoken and I thank Madonna for saying them. She's always been a scorce of strength for me, and I became a fan of her's in 1988 when I was just 9 years old, I am 33yo today and yes I am a gay male.. I wish her all the luck in the world, and I thank her for taken the time to speak out on this topic just as she did in the late 80's when AIDS had everyone running scared...
Well I have been watching her recent concert from Tel Aviv Israel when she was singing Like A Prayer and Express Yourself and she definitely was not lip-synching.
Madonna is so amazing! You can feel that she is real and honost and that she cares about people! People who watches videos like this and hates Madonna need to get a life! Haters dont know her and should stop judging and leave her and her fans alone! Thanks!
Well spoken Madonna, you're a beautiful woman inside and out. Those who bully as she said, have been bullied themselves or they enjoy putting others down to make themselves feel better or above others. I believe in karma...what goes around comes back around. Watch out all you immature, lowlife bullies...the day will come you'll be hit like a ton of bricks!😲😬 Rock On Madonna 🙂🤘
I am so happy Madonna spoke up against the recent suicides and LOVE the way she acknowledge that she wouldnt have a career if it wasnt for the GAY Community. Madonna is truly a Legend, Icon and just inspirational figure in aspects of life! Much LOVE for Lady Madonna. Been a fan since 1989 and I was just 9 years old :)
Madonna is quite an enlightned soul... when hearing her points on this topic i'm reminded about Eleanor Roosevelts famous quote: Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people. Eleanor Roosevelt
deberían ver el documental ''iam becuse we are'' esta disponible en youtube y muestra parte del trabajo de MADONNA.. ojala existieran mas personas como ella
I think what a lot of these teenagers who are being bullied at high school dont realise is that its only a very short period of your life which is over in a few years.After graduation its all over.Then you move onto college/university or a career. As Ellen and Madonna both point out usually its the victims of bullying that go on to lead successful lives and the bullies end up being losers.
her song "in this life" back from 1992 is dedicated to a gay friend of hers who died of aids, she's always stood up for gay rights, probably long before Gaga was even born
i cant imagine the amount of hate that goes around when it comes to gays and people supporting the gays. madonna and ellen are two of the many inspirational women who i feel i can count on to help make a difference in the world
Lady GaGa doesn't have an exclusive on bullying. Demi Lavato was also a victim of bullying and is a very big spokesperson for anti bullying.. The topic started with gay teen suicides from bullying and Madonna has been a supporter of gay and lesbians since the 80's, so she was very appropriate to speak here.
Hahahaha head lice. I love her. =D And I adore Madonna. Ever since my birth, I have been a Madonna fan. I was singing her songs before I knew how to speak properly. She was and always will be my inspiration, and her music speaks to my soul. Every song she's ever released has touched my heart and I... Oh jeeze, I'm crying just thinking about it! Haha! Long Live The Queen Of Pop!
I think you're wrong on that one. Look Madonna up on Wikipedia and read all that she has accomplished and all the titles and records she holds. Madonna is one of those artists that regardless of your age if you appreciate music and music history you know who she is.
one day, i came home crying and told my mom that i was being bullied.she said "if i go defend you,he'll never leave you alone.so next time he pisses you off,you punch him straight in his face.defend yourself and stop crying".the next day i punched him dead in his eye..he never touched me again
Lady Gaga comes to revolution the music industry as will be more in the future. She is emotional and loves everyone because people as her song born that way and you have to accept it and have a good time.
I get bullied daily and let me tell you this, there is NOBODY on EARTH that you can talk to that will make you feel better. Bullying should be a crime. Even though they're only children that bully there should be a fined amount taken from the family. Maybe then the families would think to do something about it.
Lady Gaga don't need so much interviews to promote her album people look for her because always has something new to offer for us. The perfume smells awesome and the photo unique excellent. As you can see I say the true in your face that sounds more realistic :))))))
you think Gays are the only people that get bullied? Everyone does its part of growing up it makes you a strong person. I have always stuck up for people that have been bullied, some crazy people get off picking on the weak. I guess they feel it lifts them up? As humans we should stick up for each other and not allow people to put others down and not stand by and watch a group of people pick on someone who is different.
@ANTHONYRW619 - I wasn't really referring to her phrasing but rather to the other posts on the page. Yes obviously she does know. But thanks for commenting anyways. I just hope that people take a step back and realize and open up just a touch. I think if it were their kids, brothers, sisters, etc... the whole situation would be different.
I think Madonna has an excuse, because she picked it up for living in the UK for a while, but Lady Gaga never lived there. I have an aunt that lived in Texas (from Ohio) for a while, and when she came back, she had a Texas accent and didn't realize it until we told her.
Wow. 21 dislikes for this when she is trying to be positive. There are 21 incredibly sad people out there if they disagree with the message in this video.
@chilvari I'm sorry if it came out like I meant you had a problem. It's Just something my friends and I say and I guess I used it without thinking. What I meant by that was that it's your business. I know I could Just have said that but like I said before I used the terminology because it was what I was used to. (Kinda like same difference doesn't really make any sense) any-who, I'm not ignoring parts of what you're saying. I believe I already agreed that Madonna does have an influence in
and like i stated before not everyone in this world cares about money.. can't take it with you when you go... i devout my life to doing real and meaningful things and being a genuine good human being.....
I know but it was more complicated in the eigthees maybe you heard about a disease called AIDS which was "new" in the eigthees. So "when it wasnt normal to do so" doesnt mean that madonna was the only one, please read what I wrote and not what you want, so read it twice before post a comment. Madonnas last tour was the most successful tour of an solo artist and you are telling that her career is over (maybe you should google before you post something)
I do think this Madonna and Lady Gaga thing is being blown out of proportion by the FANS. They obviously already got over it themselves and aren't going on about it. It's people like Elton John and fans who keep on going about stuff that's irrelevant to what's going on currently.
I feel like I need to say something, the gay community has been incredibly supportive of me. I wouldn't have a career if it wasn't of the gay community. -- There, Madonna said there! Love her!
@keegancassidy83 Blacks, Jews, Native Americans and many other people have been bullied and treated unfairly on a level that is unimaginable on a different and higher magnitude and they did not commit suicide. My point is regardless of the reason why someone is being bullied, resorting to suicide is not going to help the situation. Race, religious background and sexual orientation may or may not be ways in which a minority of a group may or may not feel like an outcast.
Good point about how bullying is brought through to adulthood~ that adultz can be bullied; hence comprehensive workplace policy/law is needed to protect all. How safe adults are sets the tone for entire environments especially @ school! Madonna sayz -all bullying & harassment needs to be addressed; that we are a part of a bullying culture...Zeitgeist; though using "preference" and "choice" language is not the best. SJ
i think Madonna fans will 'get over it' when little monsters stop trolling madonna's videos. that's my opinion. This is the 'dark side' of the 'social media' age we live in... if somebody dislikes something or somebody in the entertainment industry (mostly) they can't just keep it to themselves, they have to advertise it! And when you're young, these feelings are so strong that online it just gets overblown. Would you agree?
Madonna did do this before other celebrities. So what if Lady Gaga is friends with Elton? Madonna has a ton of gay friends whose friendships she doesn't exploit out in the public.
Madonna works for the rights of gay people around the world and equality for women in impoverished nations, just because she doesn't have a camera following her every time she does anything or tweets everything just to get praise for it doesn't mean that when she finally speaks up on camera it's for attention.
@TheSolitaryHeart I agree with you, Ladt Gaga is phony. Even if she does care for her fans or the gays, it doesn't come across as real; it just seems so contrived. Madonna is always genuinely sincere when she speaks out about something she believes in. And even though I don't know her or her parenting style, I do know that she's a great mother. People have to realize that Madonna is a grown woman; Gaga still has some growing up to do.
Photo is not really unique if you know Madonnas human nature video, lawl, no sorry but I think she was really inspired of her when she made her parfume of madonnas whole era. She put the parfume in condom like Madonna her album.
@hatchcode I got a message with your reply but I couldn't find it. I n my search for that I also realised that I missed some of your positing. We should agree to disagree then.I Just believe that no one should call artists rip off's after all Madonna began her career with an influence of Debbie Harry of Blondie, and Madonna took fashion direction from Maripol in the first few years of her pop music career. So Whatever I guess. Agree to disagree and all that.

I've always loved Madonna. She cares so much; the love she has for the world and for others is genuine.

A woman of great wisdom. She will always remain a wonderful and smart person. Madonna rocks!
Right on Madonna. Very heartfelt.

You can tell, Madonna is deeply emotional here .. However, I love how her voice suddenly changes to the "noble Madonna" at 10:22. :)
Well I have been watching her recent concert from Tel Aviv Israel when she was singing Like A Prayer and Express Yourself and she definitely was not lip-synching.
Madonna is so amazing! You can feel that she is real and honost and that she cares about people!
People who watches videos like this and hates Madonna need to get a life!

This interview makes Madonna so sympathetic! I love her!

I can't wait for her next album!!!!

I really love this video, hope LOTS OF PEOPLE around the world watches this!
I can tell she's really passionate about this. She was getting a little choked up towards the end.
Madonna is quite an enlightned soul...
when hearing her points on this topic i'm reminded about Eleanor Roosevelts famous quote:
Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Thank You Madonna. Very Much, with all my Heart.
what did she say at 8:40 i cud not really catch that...
deberían ver el documental ''iam becuse we are'' esta disponible en youtube y muestra parte del trabajo de MADONNA.. ojala existieran mas personas como ella
I think what a lot of these teenagers who are being bullied at high school dont realise is that its only a very short period of your life which is over in a few years.After graduation its all over.Then you move onto college/university or a career. As Ellen and Madonna both point out usually its the victims of bullying that go on to lead successful lives and the bullies end up being losers.
what headlights?
She is a big big star
Woah this was really inspratinal! It made me think about gossiping in a whole diffrent way! Thank you Madonna!!!!
her song "in this life" back from 1992 is dedicated to a gay friend of hers who died of aids, she's always stood up for gay rights, probably long before Gaga was even born
"i'm very disturbed".....yes you are!and that's what makes you such a talented and successful woman!!madonna you rule!!!
Love the part with the headlice situation! Really, if lice can enter HER house, they definitely can go anywhere; hahaha! :-)
i cant imagine the amount of hate that goes around when it comes to gays and people supporting the gays. madonna and ellen are two of the many inspirational women who i feel i can count on to help make a difference in the world
There will only EVER be one Madonna!!!!!! Icon!!!!
WTF does every madonna video have lady gaga comments on it?
She's amazing inside and out. Love her always. Great interview :)

THE QUEEN OF THE GALAXY.I CAN'T WAIT FOR A NEW CD AND TOUR.
long life the queen!!! i love you so much nonnie
@hatchcode I didn't see you're earlier comments. I responded as I would have had I seen them earlier.
Awe you can tell this topic really hits her..she's shaking the entire time.
why are people bitching about this whole Lady Gaga vs. Madonna when the matter at hand of this video is about how awful bullying is.
I cant describe how much respect i have for her 🖤🎀
when talking about lice she wanted to say "recurrent occurrence" haha
I saw a burbank car parked around here a while back.. Am I being stalked ?..
Hahahaha head lice. I love her. =D And I adore Madonna. Ever since my birth, I have been a Madonna fan. I was singing her songs before I knew how to speak properly. She was and always will be my inspiration, and her music speaks to my soul. Every song she's ever released has touched my heart and I... Oh jeeze, I'm crying just thinking about it! Haha!

@SkankExpose u just had to through in that bit about lady gaga didn't you....
one day, i came home crying and told my mom that i was being bullied.she said "if i go defend you,he'll never leave you alone.so next time he pisses you off,you punch him straight in his face.defend yourself and stop crying".the next day i punched him dead in his eye..he never touched me again
Madonna es la unica, nunca habrá otra que la pueda igualar o superar, ella ya lo hizo todo!
And this is why i love Madonna...well said girl!

Lady Gaga comes to revolution the music industry as will be more in the future. She is emotional and loves everyone because people as her song born that way and you have to accept it and have a good time.

When she said only gay people get bullied? Can you tell me please?
she's amazing!!!
That's good. I just wanted to correct you because I'm sure there are many people in your generation that know her because of her talent.
Right on!!! Please learn from what she is saying!
@ANTHONYRW619 - I wasn't really referring to her phrasing but rather to the other posts on the page. Yes obviously she does know. But thanks for commenting anyways.

This is reason 150,000 I love MADONNA .....she is the QUEEN!
@poorbiach Madonna is simply amazing. And inspires so many people.
What an AMAzing WOMAN!

Bullying is alive and well and it f*cking sucks, why can't everyone just accept each other for who they are? Learn to love.
Wow Madonna is such a cool person.

I can't even watch the whole thing -.-
Whoever are the two ppl who said they dislike this video hates Madonna and/or is homophobic!
SHAME ON YOU BOTH!
Good for Madonna!
This woman is such an inspiration... *sigh*... I love her...

NOOOO OTHERS CELEBRITIES DID BEFORE. MADONNA IS IN THE AWESOME ELLEN SHOW THAT I LIKE IT A LOT FOR PUBLICITY LIKE ALWAYS.
