The reason why I love her is not just her music, it's because when she stands for something is noy just one thing. It's not just for racism or just for female rights, it is for everything that is not right in this world. Hate crimes,racism,homophobia,female rights,etc. She supports every singke one of those people that feel alone,bullied,discriminated and so on. That is why this lady is on top, not only in the music bussines but in life itself. Take a moment to truly listen to her words and you will understand why half of the world loves her.
Right. And Madonna started doing it when wasn't fashionable. Also she took huge risks when made public support, and her music works: Truth Or Dare film, Erotica, Sex book, the Girlie Show Tour,...
You know what I love about Madonna, for the past couple of days I have been watching her old videos here on UA-cam and noticed, Madonna is a true performance artist, whenever she hits the stage she never disappoints, she to me is one of the most inspirational women that has ever lived, she is a perfectionist at her craft, her coustumes hair and makeup are always on point and the fact that in this speech she is so intellectual/articulate makes me love her even more she really is the Queen Of Pop
For those who think Madonna was unworthy to present this award: follow her advice and try to get to know her better. Thank you for giving us voice, Madonna. I love you.
"I wrote this though, nobody can right my copy, ok? NO ONE can right my copy."- MADONNA. Love her implications. Love her so much. She's a great artist.
Dear Madonna, Thanks for defending my rights since I was 8. Now I'm 38. For the past 20 years, I've never grown tired of hearing someone say publicly and loudly that I'm okay as a person just how I am. Thank you.
I remember this outfit was mentioned on fashion police and Joan said she'd be the perfect scout because she is "so old she can walk herself across the street and all she needs to do is rub her legs together to start a camp fire." Lol
I'm so proud of her, cause her speeches are not hypocritical and with ulterior motives as some other pop stars, she's truly concerned with the gay community and our struggle, cause she always has been since her debut back at the 80's. Even if you don't like her style or music, you have to show respect and admiration for her contribution towards the gay community.
When I first saw her wearing the uniform, I thought, "Great, she's just going to say something stupid about the Boy Scouts because she doesn't know anything about it." But, I have to say, she didn't do that at all. She made excellent points, and I'm glad she said what she did. It's very true that too many people use the name of God to fight their battles when they shouldn't. Absolutely great speech.
This speech has truly penetrated through my mind real deep. I remember every single things she's mentioned, watched it more than..like two hundred times..and i ain't even jokin'.
I love her. When do we hear the famous talking about world news issues, voicing their unhappiness and imploring for change? We read it in the papers, see it in the news, it makes us as humans feel bitter about the world, and then the world continues, people just carry on making films, writing books and making music. I'm glad she's talking about real issues and I wish more would do it. I would love to see big names from different professions once in a while collectively and publicly talking about real issues, issues that matter. I feel like we are regularly bombarded with bad news from around the world, acts of evil, we feel powerless and there's no 'opposition'.
Well done Madonna!! She is amazing!!! So intelligent; so humorous; so thoughtful; so genuine. . . So brave!!! Everyone should watch the clip from her tour that she references. It's called "Nobody Knows Me." Watch it! Once again, well done, Madonna.
Her concerts are full of young people. Shes still in the same place. She can be 54. Yeah. But she still rocking the world like a 20 year old girl. QUEEN MADONNA....
You can view the video clip Madonna is referring to and that played prior to her taking the stage on my channel. As a transguy who nearly lost my life to suicide, I was deeply moved by the piece. I'm so GLAAD I survived to witness this in person.
MADONNA IS GOD!!! 300 million albums sold, The biggest solo tour EVER for male or female ($408 million Sticky & Sweet tour)! The biggest tour of 2012 ($305 million MDNA tour!), The most watched Superbowl ever, Countless awards, Gay icon, Wannabe's galore (Gaga) and now a BILLIONAIRE!!
Madonna has sold more than 300 million records worldwide and is recognized as the best-selling female recording artist of all time by Guinness World Records. Time considered her to be one of the "25 Most Powerful Women of the Past Century" for being an influential figure in contemporary music. Madonna is the best-selling female rock artist of the 20th century and the second best selling female artist in the United States, with 64.5 million certified records.[2] In 2008, Billboard
Actually Lady Gaga crossed my mind while seeing this but I would never comment on her. You people are so basic, let's focus on this epic speech by the Queen Of Pop. I feel so proud!
I have said it once, and I will say it, again, MADONNA, your are one cool dude, you rule the world and Anderson Cooper is a ....what, no, he is a great guy, one of the greatest guys in the uníverse. Well, my back was hurting waiting for you in Vienna, last July,dearest MadQueen, but I truly admire you for the way you see and for the way you try to influence the world. MADONNA, you are one cool dude, and AN.DER.SON. Cooper keep up the excellent work, that you do! I am eternally grateful!
She tends to do that. She tries to form a connection, which she often does, to make a big universal point. Just look at Madonna's VMA speech in 2009 regarding Michael Jackson's death. A few people thought it was narcissistic, but it was truly a highlight point on the criticisms of the media and on those who left MJ.
No, Madonna's tour was the top grosser of the year and everything did sell out. She did give out free MP3 albums (not free tickets,) but I think very few were actually claimed/counted, because the process for claiming them wasn't always obvious. So it boosted sales, but only by like 20-something thousand units. There was a really good story about that in Billboard (I think, maybe RS,) too, about how people can't give away recorded music now.
"I was never a Girl Scout, but I was a Campfire Girl and a Brownie. Campfire Girls had the cooler uniform. I was never good at being part of an organization. When I was a Brownie, I ate all the cookies. When I was a Campfire Girl, I’d camp out with the boys and get into trouble." - Madonna on May 1985 to SPIN
Madonna had been fighting for tolerance long before many of her fans (and copycats) were even born. She's intelligent, articulate and has a sense of humor in all situations, unlike some pretentious wannabes who'd say any shit for publicity. Vocally she may not be that big, but there's never been or will be another pop artist with Personality and charisma close to Madonna's. She's the only true Legend alive. I could handle MJ's death or Whitney's, but I cannot imagine the world without Madonna!
I just watched Madonna give an amazing speech about how we are all one and how hate, bullying or prejudice should not be tolerated. As it shouldn't. And then I stupidly read some of the comments. Every one of you who wrote negative mean spirited posts towards Madonna or each other are part of the problem she is talking about. Listen to the message people! Think twice before you start typing your homophobic, sexist, ageist and bully like posts about others.
I like that she's up there talking about love and respect and against bullying and hate and her fans and down in the comments slamming and bullying gaga...yall need a life.
I am a little monster, met Gaga a few times personally. But I respect and LOVE Madonna too. Ignore the pressed "little" monsters and enjoy this speech!
Thank God for Madonna! Thank God that she has guts to stand up for what she believes in. When I grow up...I wanna be Madonna - something more than just a pop star...
It's called responsibility. She knows people out there care what she thinks, whether or not she has any special knowledge, and she accepts that responsibility that goes with it to stand up for what she believes in. Something tells me you wouldn't be saying this if you didn't disagree with her.
Beautiful. I hope Gaga and Madonna one day can come together so they can do a common effort to support the LGBT community, they hold so much power and influence, together they can do great things. Imagine a charity concert or something like that.
You are the coolest dude on earth, dear Madonna. It is no wonder you are still on top of all things. You are just one great person, who has made a difference in the world, as you have put it. Your are the best, unexeled! Thank you for being you!
Madonna is the ultimate icon of the LGBT community. No person could be better to present this award.Madonna goes down in this planet's history, no matter what everyone says.
She is not copying Gaga , and Gaga is not copying Madonna.When both of them,as 2 powerful figures on the world scene,talk about human rights and equality, we should be SUPPORTIVE TO BOTH OF THEM without judging any of them both. I support LGBT community , Madonna and Lady Gaga. I hope they'll change something in this world :)
помню когда то я терпеть не мог Мадонну, мне было не понятно почему так много людей её любят, но как минимум это выступление заставляет меня выразить ей своё уважение... молодец...
The Billboard story, "Lady Gaga Tour Cancellation: A Look at the Damage" says, "In total, 22 shows were cancelled, forcing the refund of roughly 200,000 tickets worth approximately $25 million in gross ticket sales, Billboard estimates." That math is... not great. Reviews of shows prior to the cancellation also indicated that they were giving away a LOT of comp tickets to fill the venues, and she didn't report 15 dates to Billboard in 2012, so it would look like she had had 100% sellouts.
madonna no es solo una artista es una revolucionaria porq su arte no keda solo en palabras tmb las lleva a la accion! madonna is an artirts but is a revolucioary to cause all her art is expression but is action to!
This woman is not only amazing, but she is sooooo smart!!! Thanks Madonna for keep spreading awareness against all prejudices and "stupid rules" out there!!! I loooove you!! and yeah, Congrats Anderson!!!
Madonna was pro-pride b4 GaGA was even on the scene. Mother Monster speaks to a younger generation of outcasts. I grew up listening to MDNA & now at 33 I adore Lady GaGa as well. They both have the same messages. They both are wonderful. Stop the #fanwars & simply embrace the love they try to spread!!
"I never sold enough cookies" With angry voice: "I ATE the cookies.."
The reason why I love her is not just her music, it's because when she stands for something is noy just one thing. It's not just for racism or just for female rights, it is for everything that is not right in this world.

Gina Sousa Branco thats right Gina!!! Shes a leader never a follower 😀

Thank you for giving us voice, Madonna.
I love you.
Who on earth would think that? If not M, then whom??
Blown away!!
She's still the best! Always will be!
she never sold enough girl scout cookies, but she's sold millions of albums. oh well, madonna wins :P
Yeah she won, coz she ate all those yummy cookies 😋
It's such an inspirational speech... I'm moved and admire her even more now!
Queen: "you may sit down"
a true gay icon
I Love Madonna Since I Was Five :3 Her Smile Drives Me Crazy *w*
what a woman ! just amazing
"I wrote this though, nobody can right my copy, ok? NO ONE can right my copy."- MADONNA. Love her implications. Love her so much. She's a great artist.
Dear Madonna,
Thanks for defending my rights since I was 8. Now I'm 38. For the past 20 years, I've never grown tired of hearing someone say publicly and loudly that I'm okay as a person just how I am. Thank you.
I love Madonna. Anderson Cooper is a lucky guy.
he might have had luck but still he worked pretty hard
I wish I could be this articulate while drunk.....
mte
I guess you were drunk when you wrote she was drunk
10:57 - THE BEST PART!! Dig at Lady Reductive

Holy shit, the Queen is getting tipsy...I've NEVER heard her slur before. It's freaking awesome!
***** Hi there! Hope you are enjoying the videos!
I think she was always this way
+Gina Sousa Branco Really? She can't even say community without slurring! I love it when she lets her guard down and is more her real self.
+C H S Morrisseau Like I said before M was always like this
Have you seen a drunk person? I wish she was. She's sober as ever. Almost too sober
This speech has truly penetrated through my mind real deep. I remember every single things she's mentioned, watched it more than..like two hundred times..and i ain't even jokin'.
Regardless if she was a little drunk or not this is golden
Of course she wasn't drunk
@@ginasousabranco5637 *"Even if she would have had a little white line of..? ...then stIll this is Golden"*

Its called "Nobody knows me" (interlude video). She showed it at her recent tour, it was an interlude. The video its very touching. Look it up.
Well done Madonna!! She is amazing!!! So intelligent; so humorous; so thoughtful; so genuine. . . So brave!!! Everyone should watch the clip from her tour that she references. It's called "Nobody Knows Me." Watch it! Once again, well done, Madonna.
"I don't know about you, but I can't take this shit anymore. I want to start a revolution."
I am TOTALLY with you, gurl. Let's march!
Her speeches are amazing. Her MJ speech, now this.
2013...2019 This still relevant!
QUEEN OF EVERYTHING!
I love her so much
LOVE U Madonna!.. Always know how to say it, what ti say and when to say it!
I hope glaad will also post AC's wonderful speech and the introduction they showed about him that made quite a few people tear up.
Love Madge!
I`d LOVE to give Anderson an award. Dressed in his favourite color holding a case of chocolate bites wrapped in a beautiful red ribbon.
11:02 Love When Madonna Said "No One Can Write My Copy"... Then Stares At Camera Hoping "Lady Whats Her Face" Is Watching... XD
Her concerts are full of young people. Shes still in the same place. She can be 54. Yeah. But she still rocking the world like a 20 year old girl. QUEEN MADONNA....
Yay Anderson Cooper, and yay you too Madonna :-)

We need a new album.
Actually Lady Gaga crossed my mind while seeing this but I would never comment on her. You people are so basic, let's focus on this epic speech by the Queen Of Pop. I feel so proud!
Activism is just not saying it, but doing it with your passion, full conviction, and most of all complete integrity. Thank you Madonna.
Vale a pena ouvir este discurso ...
At least she cares enough to say something about it.
Your voice will be heard by millions. Thank you Madonna.
I have said it once, and I will say it, again, MADONNA, your are one cool dude, you rule the world and Anderson Cooper is a ....what, no, he is a great guy, one of the greatest guys in the uníverse.

Can u share the entire speech? It cuts off her off at the end? I don't see the part where Anderson comes up?
Where did you get the "Best Indicators" ?
Madonna is EVERYTHING!!!! Amazing and very important words! Wake up: This is 2013, well said Madonna! I love you!
What video clip of the MDNA Tour was shown?!
She tends to do that. She tries to form a connection, which she often does, to make a big universal point. Just look at Madonna's VMA speech in 2009 regarding Michael Jackson's death. A few people thought it was narcissistic, but it was truly a highlight point on the criticisms of the media and on those who left MJ.

Spot on! Love hearing Madonna tell how it is!
Madonna had been fighting for tolerance long before many of her fans (and copycats) were even born. She's intelligent, articulate and has a sense of humor in all situations, unlike some pretentious wannabes who'd say any shit for publicity. Vocally she may not be that big, but there's never been or will be another pop artist with Personality and charisma close to Madonna's. She's the only true Legend alive.

Some people like Madonna will never be rid of it since they are so successful.
It was so heart felt come on.

this kinda made my cry.. never saw this side of madonna
esta mujer hace que cada dia uno quiera salir adelante , sin agachar la cabeza , hay que ser valientes como ella dice!!!!
Glad to see she's dropped that faux British accent and is now speaking in a more natural voice. Great speech. Love you, Madge!
This video has me in tears!!!
Great speech! Tnx fir the words. Love Madonna
she was using that as an example to not discriminate against anyone
I like that she's up there talking about love and respect and against bullying and hate and her fans and down in the comments slamming and bullying gaga...yall need a life.
We need more people like Madonna! more fearless people like her!
I am a little monster, met Gaga a few times personally. But I respect and LOVE Madonna too. Ignore the pressed "little" monsters and enjoy this speech!
Thank God for Madonna! Thank God that she has guts to stand up for what she believes in. When I grow up...I wanna be Madonna - something more than just a pop star...

She hadn't finished!!!
Gorgeous speech and so honey-sweet voice )))) I melted when i hear it ))))
Madonna rules- again !
Is there any way of seeing the video she's talking about?
Thank you Madonna
Some ppl just can't get enough of the limelight
Madonna is the ultimate icon of the LGBT community. No person could be better to present this award.Madonna goes down in this planet's history, no matter what everyone says.
