Welcome to the Letterman UA-cam Channel, home to all your favorite clips from Late Night and Late Show - as well as conversations with the writers, producers and performers who helped make it all happen. These highlights have been artisanly-produced, carefully-curated, and chosen completely at random by an old computer that used to pick numbers for the New York Lotto back in the 90’s.
I was a kid watching this on live TV and even I felt the cringe. Madonna knew how to push all the right buttons!
Hello antscanada 👍
She's still a beautiful woman!
@@cheneethompson5756 With all that plastic surgery? No I wouldn't be so sure
Cringe? just thought it was very funny tbh
Haha same I was laughing and squealing so loud my parents woke up lol.
"Don't treat me special, I wouldn't know what to do with it," is a helluva line
Remember the magazine covers “SHE WON’T LEAVE!!” 😂😂😂 Classic Madge.
All I can say this is the legendary interview, the interview that cannot be happened today. They both maintained their own wildness of 80's - 90's, and decided to crash as hard as they can. Witt, humor, bravery, assertiveness and intelligence exploded all together in this interview. While some celebrities got publicly humiliated by David, not having a chance to fight back, but Madonna, she was never one of them.
No, this was specific to what happened between the two.
Sounds like ai wrote that op
@@8bitakvidsbecause ppl are no longer accustomed to genuine, indulgent intelligent discourse.
Anyone, it’s the correct take
You eat letterman out or something?
Madonna said enough. She didn't need Dave to make a fool of her 😂
Madonna high AF actin like a brat with super powers, Dave just trying to hang in there...lmao
I'm glad someone else saw that I thought it was sad pathetic her Having to have All of the sexual innuendo it just was pathetic and totally lack class As far as I'm concerned Talented as she is but then again she quite young I think
@@WhisperingJaneASMRSometimes the apple DO fall further from the tree than asked for: Coz you may believe it was Madonna who wrote "Girls Just Want To Have Fun...?" 😉
Exactly what I thought!
I still laugh out loud at this interview every single time. A superstar being so chaotic on live tv back then was so wild, iconic.
take that L ben
None of them have whatever this is anymore. If they tried it would be fake. And the host couldn't manage it like Dave does.
Hahah love it❤❤❤❤
Not King icojic thete more annoying
she's not chaotic, just truly free and relaxed mind enjoying present moment ;) and David can tune to her and play the game well.
both are lovely :)
This was a huge pop culture moment at that time. The cursing and vulgarity was something you didn't see on a show like this. Now...well, it wouldn't even make news.
Yeah nowadays the expectation seems to be if a guest wants to curse, the host says "go ahead, we'll just bleep it out, no big deal"
Madonna paved the path for them. She's breaking the stereotype of how a woman should behave. 30 years later, many female artists thanked her for being a trailblazer for them. Madonna is so ahead of her time. Her impact in popculture is phenomenal. The greatest female artist of all time, and the undisputed Queen of Pop! My respect will always be yours Madonna.
@@selenamadge489 No doubt about it. Her constant evolution kept even casual fans engaged. A marketing genius. Her intelligence is often overlooked .
Yes, Madonna made it okay for women to speak their mind, act vulgar or go nude if they want. Thanks to Madonna stars like Britney can pose nude on IG and be free.
U forgot to mention the wit! I mean, for a woman to take control of a late night show host's segment is what is unprecedented and still unmatched to this day
16:30 "It seems like it has" 😂 I STILL remember that comeback. This interview showed me what a pro Dave was.
“Unstoppable force vs immovable object” energy 🤣🤣🤣
I AM x = blocked ♾️ 🚫
It'sa running riot🤣 😂 😒
Thanks for writing the perfect response.
this is literally the perfect comment lmao
@@incubrian WWE reference Hogan vs Andre
I remember this so vividly. I was in a friend's dorm room. I watched Letterman every night in college.
while the others ...
@@peters4139 I see what you did there....
blockbuster and chill
Damn your old.
What year?
Okay but can we appreciate how good Dave handled Miss Madonna and had the funniest comebacks instead of getting offended and stopping it THIS IS HISTORY
Yes! That is marvelous
Exactly! When I was a kid I used to watch Letterman’s Late Night Show in my room goin to bed. I had a TV and could get away with watching sometimes so I was privileged but no cable so, I wasn’t that privileged…
Back in those days Late Nite TV was good! You didn’t need cable. Now cable doesn’t even exist.. I tell ya, I’m just old enough 😅
This conversation was wild af!! lol🤣
I was at this taping. It was a great moment. During the breaks, they were still telling jokes. This was one of the best Letterman’s interviews.
His skill is rare. These hosts today are incapable.
Between brakes did letterman smell those panties??
Omg you’re so lucky 🎉🎉🎉🥳🥳👑👑🤩😘👌
Oh my gosh that makes you a legend in your own right. . .
That will stand out is a highlight in life for me forever. . .
Times were really fun back then
I pray we can find the fun again
You look 30 years old, how could you be there then?
I remember this interview from back in the day. Madonna was all over the news because of what she said and did in this interview.
If I remember correctly, this was one of the most popular reruns of Letterman well into 1995.
"untrue rumor thsts like funny David letterman" 🤣🤣🤣
This would never happen today. Late night talk shows are so scripted and safe and BORING.
All shows were scripted back they always discussed of ahead of time what they were going to say
@@tinawallace9635 no they werent
Feeling like kids together as a style of communicating performed as an attempted interview can only result like this much in favor righteousness,
Strangely enough we had....
@@tinawallace9635 Exactly 💯! They still do that. The producer calls the celebrity ahead of time and they discuss what they're going to say on the show
I don’t think so, because a lot of celebrities, and whoever else these talk show, hosts have had on their show have sometimes acted a little outrageous to the point where even the hosts looked like they were getting secondhand embarrassment for them. I don’t know if you remember this but years and years ago do you remember when Drew Barrymore got up and jumped on David Letterman‘s desk and pulled up her shirt and flashed him? I doubt that was scripted. That’s when she was going through some tough times. And, now that she has her own show, she had David letterman on it recently and discussed that situation and that moment.
Madonna has always been notoriously hard to interview, Dave being the absolute professional he is manages to just keep it going and we have a classic episode!
I found this interview dumb, she was boring frankly. Dave was terrific as always.
it's a lot more game than the work, you know? ;)
I agree with you 💯. This episode is def "a classic". There was a lot "going on", during THIS taping 😲
I love the way Letterman kept the interview going too🙂
Yeah real professional to pressure a woman to kiss a stranger on live tv. She was right to call him a sicko
She has opened so many doors for women in showbusiness and she was demonized. Total respect for the QUEEN OF POP. Iconic Madonna.
What a simp.
@@johnmoyle4195how? She’s actually pretty cool ngl
forgettable
@@johnmoyle4195CANT be talking when you have yourself on your pf looking like a beanbag 😆
Opened her legs to open doors
I used to record Letterman and watch it with a few high school friends during lunch hour in the art room, and we watched this a few times - it made the morning news, and we were so excited to see this.
The payoff to this came at the MTV VMAs later that year. When Dave and Madonna showed up on stage together, the roof blew off the dump, to borrow a favorite Letterman phrase. And, of course, Dave delivered his line - “I’ll be in the car. Watch your language” - PERFECTLY. What a performer. What instincts. This is why Dave is iconic.
Simply the BEST..Tina Turner 😅
Cringe
It's was all rehearsed lines!!!! Madonna said that 😅😢😂😂😂😂 she said the line about her hair was all rehearsed etc
@@DeuDeoEgono. She didn’t say it was rehearsed. She said she told the segment Producer that she’s likely gonna curse. They said, go ahead.
Don’t make up stuff., especially when it’s readily available to be debunked
@@X11CHASEwhy? This was fuuun
I honestly don't think any other late night talk show could've handled this any better than Dave
Conan > Dave
@@markflores214 Conan + Dave = Legends
There was no interview. It was a mad conversation.
It's just full of innuendos with Madonna, breaking the rules. And Letterman, trying to compose himself. And improv what to do
“What is that? A swim cap…?” Freaking GREAT comeback!
Nah. Very basic. Like he is. A basic creep.
@@n3493 Just like most ethnic Germans
@@n3493 u just offended coz he got her bad...lol😂
@@n3493 ‘Awesome comeback!
LOL 😂 he really put her back in her place 🤣 😂
That old dude was legit disgusted 😂
This is scripted. They agreed to let Madonna do her thing. Dave didn't expect that the Queen of Pop can go extreme.
🥳🥳🥳🥳💃
@@ronrodriguez9741Nah… it wasn’t scripted. This was real Television
This interview is iconic at this point. Never have we ever had a superstar as fearless as Madonna especially back then. Legend!
Legend before the FALL.
Ummm Joan rivers
@@philipseballos8892 If you call a fall to grow, to age, to mature in life you're totally missing how huge Madonna has been to music and society. She changed the way on how we think about of lot of things. She's not only a legend, she`s a myth. She'll be remebered like we nowadays study and talk about Cleopatra , Juana de Arco or Eva Peron. Strong women who change history forever !!!
@@julianvela633 Oh I absolutely adore Joan and I've seen her live a year before she passed, but she was a comedian while Madonna was a global superstar making such jokes. Miss Joan A LOT!
@@philipseballos8892 legends never fall...
2 heavy weight champs sparring and it’s amazing. Dave’s comebacks are lightening fast. Most talk shows are soooo boring now. This was truly epic.
Her choices were interesting. Her critiques on point. His comebacks very true.
Foreman vs. Ali
As you put it, "Dave’s comebacks were lightening fast"🙂
@@johnday2971More like Michael Moorer vs. George Foreman actually🙂 Foreman vs. Ali was too one sided. Ali controlled that fight from Round 1 to Round 8.
What is that a swim cap?? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
“What is that- a swim cap?!” 🤣😂🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
lol I laughed so hard!!!
I remember watching this in Australia and howling with laughter so much i got in trouble with my folks haha
This twenty minute interview is funnier than 99% of what talk shows do today.
"Former mayor of New York.....Dave Dinkins?" 🤣🤣😂😂🔥
Paul jumping in with the Tonight Show theme was genius.
Two things:
1) Madonna's confidence, sense of humor, and quick wit are magnetic. Her personality really brings it, and she oozes sexuality. While she is a bit combative, she's also fun. 💯
2) Her and Letterman have damn good chemistry, and this actually felt like we were watching a first date. But man.. they would make the oddest couple. 😂
"Is that a swimming cap" 🤣
Omg I know
Do you get the feeling Madonna had the time of her life? She really had a good laugh, as we all did. She couldn't stop giggling.
no she didn't, she was missing her mother so how can she laugh?
Because She Was High!
@@sallyjoan Yes, exaxtly. Let's never laugh and have joy, and NOT make anything out of your life, because your mother/father/grandmother died.
@@Lina-cy2yc well you're wrong actually and learn to spell!
@@sallyjoan Well, you are wrong, actually. And if you want me to learn how to spell, babe - teach me. Or don't look at my errors lol
Madonna “This is the closest I’ll ever get to kissing you” Dave: we can change that … if I don’t have to wait in line “😂
Only Dave could have handled this interview so well
"That microphone is really long.... Speaking of the NBA." 🤣🤣🤣
I don't get it?
@@Davez621 She loves BBC. She's been around the NBA Cirlces.
And it's black too!!
@@Davez621 You will someday when you're a little older.
@@Davez621she was making reference to a black player member
What a woman.. total respect for her showing up and really sticking it to him
Dave has a perfect comeback to any situation as fast as a bullet. When Madonna turn to the guy "who said that?" got an instantly "he is the guy you didn't want to kiss at the begining", that was very fast.
David yup!
Him cutting her short trying to wrap it up had me in tears. "Very deep, Madonna Thank you."
Letterman is more talented than Madonna if you ask me
Also when she asked if his hair was a rug and he replied what was hers, a swimming cap, lol.
@@davidBarrelif anyone wants to ask, we’ll let u kno
This was so great! Only Madonna can take over the show and only Dave can handle this interview. The two of them going back and forth was like two prizefighters. Just classic!
MADONNA ATE HIM.
?
Oh Puleeeze ....
Except one fighter was trying hard......but got crushed by the superior host.
@@n3493 Madonna is trash
i remember watching this live and thinking it would be just a normal interview 😂
Didn’t see it live, to my own chagrin. I had to wait until UA-cam years later to finally watch in its entirety. Even then, it was a renegade video: back when UA-cam kept everything under 10 minutes, so you knew it would get scrubbed. Dave was so damned professional and hilariously still Dave the whole time. Magnificent.
One of Daves best interviews. I absolutely love his sharp responses. He is just not impressed by her remarks. Who else is that quick?
Madonna said all his remarks were STAGED, including the swimming cap for you to have an idea about real life!! 😂😂😂
@@DeuDeoEgoyou again? Once more, this wasn’t rehearsed. Letterman would never work that way. Go be a hater somewhere else… where you won’t get clocked for being a silly liar
@@gaylefranklin yes, me again, how is life!? Madonna herself said that specific part was totally rehearsed! I READ THE INTERVIEW and she was supposed to make fun of his hair, his response was SCRIPTED!! Deal with it!!
@@DeuDeoEgo she said she told the producer that she’d curse and make fun of his hair. And that the entirety of her conversation about what happened pre show. If you have more from Madonna on this , please tell me where I can find your source.
"we can't get rid of her, what if she shows up tomorrow night"? Omg sooo funny.
People don’t understand just how talented Dave really is, it’s extremely hard to do what he does on the fly 😂
No I UNDERSTAND. 😅
Were any of her responses scripted, or was this 100% on the fly? The beginning is hella cringe, but 5 minutes in and it feels like the ice is broken and Dave masterfully wrapped it up for the break.
Parents dealing their kids tantrums in public do
You’re only as good as the interviewee. Dave is talented and charming but so is Madonna.
Letterman did an excellent job keeping such a "notorious" interview going.
this is the most entertaining yet pointless interview! great stuff
Qui est là après la video de Seb?😊
Who the hell is "Seb"?
@@xq280764A French UA-camr, je made a video explaining Madonna's career
@@xq280764 Don't know and we don't need to :)
I remember watching this with my Mom (I was 14 at the time!) she and I both were shocked and laughing throughout the entire time! (especially when they kept cutting to the old couple in the audience!)
I was almost 11 4-4-83
Yep, I remember this too. I was 11 as well. The younger crowd now will never understand how big this moment was at the time. 90s was the best of everything!!!
@@thepsychnurse4406 that's neat yeah the 90s was bliss we had Home Alone, Terminator, Nirvana, and really good tv shows like kids in the hall and mystery science 3000 and shows on TGIF like step by step and family matters then there was home improvement and married with children it was a blast.
She upstaged him. He didn't like that.
How old are you now?
I remember watching this first air as a kid. I didn’t get a lot of it but the swim cap joke made me laugh hysterically.
It's funny seeing that Letterman put out his cigar/cigarette or whatever before coming back on air and pointing out Madonna's as if you couldn't see vapor coming off of him.
Dave was incredible the way he held his composure and harmlessly fired back at Madonna in a friendly way. Not easy to do...
He was a sexist.
sure it is easy to do when you are a natural n a professional
I must admit the boomer generation like Madonna & David has incredible amount of intelligence and wit.
True. I like the way Letterman handled it.
@@jacksonaticmore like the most gullible generation 😂 ate up all the propaganda the government gave yall
Madonna was so fearless wow. The back and forth between her and the host shows maturity that she can take a joke and she wont just sit , she will also throw the punches
This was anything but fearless...
Madonna and Tommy Lee from Motley Crue are pure insanity
She belongs to the street
Battle of wits with an unarmed woman.
@@georgegeorgiev3946the most fearless and legendary female artist of all time which is why she's remained on top for 4 decades. gave the biggest show of her career last month on the last night of her sold out acclaimed world tour
You did have something there, David Letterman. One of the highlights of your show. Ever.
Dave: "We wanna get the Counting Crows out here to play their songs."
Madonna: Why?
My favorite line of the night.
Madonna being high for the whole interview was an iconic thing in itself 🥰👍🏻
what was she smokin?
I knew I wasn't alone on that!
I am high and yes, can confirm that
@@Vor_Tex_Sun you pothead you
She got high with Tupac shakur in the limo on the way to the theater. True.
This is the best interview ever! Two greats doing their thing 🥳🥳👲🏼🧎🏼♀️
"You realize that this is being broadcast, don't you?"
- "Yeah, you realize that I'm Madonna, don't you?"
Madonna admitted later she was high during this interview (obviously).
On what?
Endo
Was she using that as an excuse for being such a boring and childish guest?
@@belovedsandworm whats an endo
Shut up Lucy
They later made up. Madonna was the punchline almost every night especially during his "top 10 lists" for at least a year. She showed up and this is what happened.
This is the best interview ever…the chemistry whatever it is was awesome and natural
There is a magic in this interview which i really don't see anymore. Late Show was a party every night no matter the guest.
A beautiful dance of the human condition that was once upon a time allowed to be broadcast on public television. Legendary.
She was onto something. Her chaos and confrontationality in this interview were piercing a hole in the polished, be-happy, look-nice veneer that was (and still is) talk shows
She loves attention and that’s all this is. She’s enjoying the power trip and trying to control the direction of the interview. Even though everywhere she wants to take it is tedious and boring (like the underwear stuff, or trying to get Letterman to ask her a specific question). It tells the audience very little about her (which is the point of these interviews), and it just seems like she’s playing the slowest flirt game of all time
@@VideoGuy232Relax, it’s not that deep.
@@VideoGuy232I one hundred percent agree with you. While she has clearly gone of the rails in recent years, this demonstrates that she has in fact been a train wreck forever. People seemed to believe that she was/is cool and edgy but the fact is, being cool never took so much effort! Looking back, it's embarrassing.
@@VideoGuy232 if anyone enjoys a power trip, it's Dave Letterman.
@@LizaFan Lets just say they both enjoy a good ego trip. He loved the attention he was getting on his show, she did what she did and both did it to satisfy their egos.
A man who doesnt want attention cant even imagine themselves in a situation like they are without literally wanting the light on them.
I’ve never seen Letterman as genuinely angry as when she started swearing.
Then you obviously haven't seen the infamous Harvey Pekkar appearance.
@@UpstateMediaNY or the Crispin Glover appearance
Watch the interview with Bill O'Reilly
He doesn’t seem angry. I think he had a crush on her.
@@veryfine69 It was for sure mutual
Rumor has it Madonna was high af going into the show.
Combine that with Dave's history of bashing Madonna
Recipe for disaster
It was NO disaster, it was funny as ****.
A classic interview. Should have included Dave’s intro: “Our next guest has slept with the biggest names in the industry,” And Paul’s astonishment “She your guest!”
Do yourself a favour and find an uncensored version. It's out there!
I just couldn’t stop watching - have to say; this was brilliant and hugely entertaining 😂😂😂
I know there are a lot more obvious things going on in this video, but can we take a moment to appreciate how at 17:33 Dave does his Johnny Carson impression, and almost instantly Paul Shaffer starts playing the Tonight Show theme?
omg I have NEVER picked up on that until just now! :o granted, I didn't watch the Carson Tonight Show much, so don't know his mannerisms TOO well.....but gosh I've probably watched THIS here interview 100 times over the last 28 years, and wow, I'm absolutely tickled to just now be noticing this subtle impression for the very first time.....you are CORRECT sir! :o
This interview was so controversial at the time. I remember news programs saying that this interview had the most "bleeps" at the time. When Madonna and Dave showed up together at the awards a short time after, it was classic. =)
They cut out the beginning where Letterman introduced her in a pretty rude and unprofessional way, that even Paul Shaffer seemed a little appalled by.
It's like a complete train wreck and a brilliant live comedy show all at once! Hilarious and deeply uncomfortable but you don't want it to stop 😆 Dave did a sterling job of holding his own against her, they have a weird and explosive kind of chemistry together. Deep down I think they really do like each other.
I think they hooked up after that

And then HUMAN NATURE was born!! The backlash she received from this interview surely inspired her songwriting
I didn't know that...I love that song!
Actually Human Nature was about the backlash she received during Erotica. This interview came out a few months before Bedtime Stories
Absolutely. No. Regrets.
This what she would’ve looked like if she’d done The Matrix. She was offered the role as Trinity but turned it down!
Thank God! 🙏

I haven’t seen this in years. I remember her getting so much grief at the time - but this interview has aged like a fine wine. It’s a classic ❤
In a different way clichéd and obscene, but at the same time the best Letterman Late Show that I have ever seen.
Easily the best interview of all time. I heard humours that at the time the latterman show was struggling for ratings and David latterman asked Madonna to be outrageous and wild prior to the show started. Madonna was dating Tupac at the time and she admitted on the latterman show In 2009 that she had a joint prior to the show. Madonna even asked Dave “have you Ever smoked Endo? So basically she was high lol!! No other music star could cause such controversy then Madonna. No way she could get away with it now In 2022 as people would be too offended. Especially in the day of social media. It would ruin her career. This show is still the highest rating episode in lattermans career and Madonna’s single I’ll remember after the show aired peaked at No.2 on the billboard charts for 4 weeks. So it worked out well for both I say
I was in high school and I remember what a scandal it was. It was talked about in the media for days afterwards.
nope. Letterman was beating Leno in the ratings in 1994 when this aired, it wasn't until Hugh Grant's appearance on the Tonight Show after his arrest that Leno started beating The Late Show.
And no, this isn't the highest rated episode ever of The Late Show. His highest rated episode was after the 1994 Winter Olympcs a few weeks earlier than this episode. Actually, when this episode aired The Late Show was absolutely crushing The Tonight Show in the ratings.
Basically everything you heard is a load of BS.
For me, it's just a few swear words plus some tongue-in-cheek conversations. Nothing outrageous for me, even when I watched it for the first time 20 years ago
LEtterman.Can't believe you edited this and misspelled his name 3 times.
Such a tragedy that freedom of speech is so offensive now
Imagine if this interview was done with Craig Ferguson 😂
"What is that, a SWIM CAP?!" Dave Letterman was so quick.
He always got the last word in😂
I've never been a fan but she does have attitude. I'll give her that.
Narcissism usually destroys all credibility because everyone you interact with wants to escape from you. When you're a celebrity, however, it actually makes you more famous! What a nice world
She’s high as hell 😂
Stoners always think everyone else is a stoner.predictable.
you might be pretty dim if you believe she isnt on anything in this interview lol@@paulbradley705
PRIME Madonna! PRIME Dave! God, that was freakin' fantastic. We're talking 28 years ago, and I remember it like last night. this is SO FUNNY! What chemistry they have.,
14:12 This is quite a brilliant moment. It seemed she broke character when he said that he knows everything there is to know about her. It negates the whole act. And she replies that he doesn't know a go**** thing.
Love, hate, or don't care about her, she really was far ahead of her time - for a very long time. Gotta give her credit for that. These off the rails episodes are incredible.
@@markshaw2009 similar to Dave, right? Who was a saint and ended world hunger. Entertainment is entertainment.
But she's nothing today but still trying to be
@@TELEVISIONARCHIVES Okay? Another strange assertion. I don't really care for her, but she ruled culture for decades. No one can sustain forever.
@@TELEVISIONARCHIVES who us nothing? Madonna? One of the most recognized and popular acts in music history?
Just because we are in degenerate times. Let us see what history thinks of her.
This was when Madonna had her New York accent. Six years later, she moved to London and magically picked up an English accent.
This didn't sound NY to me. It sounded mid-west (which is where she's from), certain words she says made it really evident. But I do remember when she had the English accent lol.
She's so full of herself. Yuck!!!!
There's no there there
It was an English accent impression, wouldn't go as far as to say it was an actual accent lol.
She definitely has a personality disorder
Madonna said that the show was all SCRIPTED, she said she was given a script where she had to make fun of Letterman rug hair and he would come back with her swim cap hair etc. She thought F. it and went off cursing which was off script and upset Letterman. She did well considering that she was high (af) as confirmed by her and some production assistant who walked into her changing room and saw her smoking with a guy just before the show started..... which is also evident from the way she laughs here.
I remember this. It was hilarious. That was also the third time that grocery bagging champion got bumped. He came back in a later episode and talked about meeting Madonna in the green room.
i've seen this too many times and i don't plan to stop 😂😂😂
Wow...this is a pretty epic episode.
Black Crowes laid down killer performance of "round here."
Dave put on a masterclass in dealing with a complicated interview.
I missed the masterclass. He seemed lost for big portions of it...
The swim cap comment got me crying 😭 he was eating her up 😭
Funny.... I'm 50 y.o. and I know Madonna for ~40 years... Seen most of her music videos, listened to almost all of her albums and songs over the years.... I've been on the internet for over 25 years... I've been on youtube for almost 20 years.... and this is the first TV show appearance/interview with her I ever watched.... Amazing. lol
“Dave you are a sick fuck!”
Band: Plays Holiday😂
This feels chaotic in 2023…hard for me to imagine how it seemed in 1994…
Things are well more tame and less chaotic today when it comes to entertainment.
@@dom4591 depends on where you look
we have UA-cam nowadays, which allows far more chaos imho
@@waytoobiased yes, good point. Mainstream entertainment is far more tame than before. But with access to social media, you would be correct there.
@dom4591 it's more tame because the emo crybabies ruined everything.
I never knew Madonna, but when I grew up I found out she was born in the same hospital I was and my uncle once went out on a date with her mother around their high school days.
Two entertainers at the top of there games. Two very different games, but both charming in their own way. Dave is always Dave, but finding Madonna that attractive just shows, I've definitely got a type.
