FANTASTIC interview. Niki and Donna are forever part of pop culture history for so many of us and this interview was just great. I agree with Niki that the arrangements on the Girlie Show tour were the best of any of Madonna's tours. I also agree with Donna that 'Truth or Dare' would not be anywhere near as impactful if it were done today, with pop stars being so overexposed through social media. 'Truth of Dare' was really the first of its kind and, as with everything Madonna did back then, it was ahead of its time.
When I see Madonna live and she sings Like A Virgin on every tour since Truth or Dare came out, I akways always think about Donna and Nikki on the bus making fun of madonna singing LAV when she's old. It always makes me chuckle.😅
I’m glad they mentioned about the phones at concerts. I saw Madonna Celebration tour in Amsterdam last year and the amount of times people in front of me blocked my view filming it was too many times to count. Ban phones from concerts so that people are forced to be present.
I was at Who's That Girl and Blonde Ambition in Dallas (both stadiums are gone now), so it's really great to see you two lovely women in this interview!!!
I was first introduced to Donna & Niki when they preformed Express Yourself with Madonna at the '89 (?) MTV awards. One of my favorite performances of her career and Niki and Donna's too. Very raw and striped down and a early preview of what was to come. These women are an absolute part of my love for Madonna. I expected to see them together. -i would love to hear any memories they had of that performance. It was my first introduction to the ladies. -Also, I'd love to hear their thoughts on the documentary "Strike A Pose" about all the guys from Truth Or Dare. (It was exceptional.)
Love these two women so much. I just hope that Nikki becomes a little more self-aware about how she has the slight tendency to talk over Donna. This happens in their other podcast guestings as well. I love how animated and excited she gets though when she tells stories. Again, no hate - love them both!
So dude awesome interview, but editing and putting some order to your channel. Interview ends mid word and then some other random video comes up and can't find the next part of this one

Girlie is an EXPERIENCE.. but she needed a few more hits on it. But it's her best tour. BA is the ultimate M tour, but Girlie is special. It's for the real fans, those who stuck with her during the Erotica years.
GS is iconic with the "real" fans. The fans that still loved her during Sex and Erotica. Perfect tour.. but I still think Burning Up could have been done after Fever (before Vogue).. Where's the Party during the disco portion...Spotlight would have been very cool on this tour, too.
Great interview❤❤❤ two talented women, Donna does background vocals on Selena Quintanilla’s 1995 Diane Warren penned “I’m getting used to you” which IMO the dance version Def Club Mix is better than the original ❤❤❤ ahh the 90s
I am shocked and devastated to see that everyone I have talked to or listen to after the Celebration tour doesn’t see the harsch statement Mafonna makes about Social Media on the show! She is literally filmed live with hand held cameras while she performs and the footage is used as part of the performance on the digital screens! All of that while we filmed the way she was filmed while she performed and later sharwd what we have filmed! This is a very complex concept both technically and contentwise! Such a huge statement on social media. She is so clever to use that as a positive and negative at the same time! Very layered. Nobody talks about that!
For me Madonna is a part with Nicky and Donna, without them, it's not the same! The best Madonna's album is Like a Prayer, the best show is Blonde Ambition Tour and the unforgettable In Bed with Madonna. She was the best 90’s, after that, unfortunately not for me. THANKS GIRLS, to give us the best of you to keep as long as we can very good memories of amazing shows.
The WTG tour was incredible and they worked hard but for the BAT, they truly had to work HARD. Madonna had to rely on them for a LOT; the changing sets, the wardrobe changes and the Broadway-like production.
Do we know they officially fell out though ? Everyone assumed it was just because Nikki didn’t tour with M since Re-invention but was not Nikki pregnant then ?

Memories
Madonnas Vegas Show!
Ew. Madonna would never regulate herself to a Vegas act.
That's what makes Niki's impersonation all the more hilarious. We all know that.
loved it@@taintedlife2618
These two women are ICONS themselves. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

I really love the Girlie Show era.
My very first credit card charge ever was in October of 1992...the sex book and the Erotica album.
❤
I have 2 of the sex Book
One I will never open
Would love to see Madonna bring them out for a performance at the Celebration tour

they are always so true and the work they did with M, Blonde Ambition isand will stay an iconic tour for many reasons for our generation
Agree

Girlie Show is not as influential and iconic as Blond Ambition but it’s so much better overall
Loved both
Girlie is an EXPERIENCE.. but she needed a few more hits on it. But it's her best tour. BA is the ultimate M tour, but Girlie is special. It's for the real fans, those who stuck with her during the Erotica years.
love this tout also @@jartober
GS is iconic with the "real" fans. The fans that still loved her during Sex and Erotica.
Perfect tour.. but I still think Burning Up could have been done after Fever (before Vogue).. Where's the Party during the disco portion...Spotlight would have been very cool on this tour, too.
@@jartober good points
Great interview❤❤❤ two talented women, Donna does background vocals on Selena Quintanilla’s 1995 Diane Warren penned “I’m getting used to you” which IMO the dance version Def Club Mix is better than the original ❤❤❤ ahh the 90s

I am shocked and devastated to see that everyone I have talked to or listen to after the Celebration tour doesn’t see the harsch statement Mafonna makes about Social Media on the show!
She is literally filmed live with hand held cameras while she performs and the footage is used as part of the performance on the digital screens!
All of that while we filmed the way she was filmed while she performed and later sharwd what we have filmed!
This is a very complex concept both technically and contentwise! Such a huge statement on social media.
She is so clever to use that as a positive and negative at the same time!
Very layered. Nobody talks about that!

She still continued to be extremely successful without them don’t count her out
yes@@roccolacertosaj.r.4718
The WTG tour was incredible and they worked hard but for the BAT, they truly had to work HARD. Madonna had to rely on them for a LOT; the changing sets, the wardrobe changes and the Broadway-like production.
Yes
Why nobody asks Niki what was the fallout between Madonna and her?
Do we know they officially fell out though ? Everyone assumed it was just because Nikki didn’t tour with M since Re-invention but was not Nikki pregnant then ?
Allegedly Nikki didn’t approve of the satanic ritualistic elements that Madge put into the shows and then quit.
@@vangelissopamenaReally ?
@@truthhurts4454 *Allegedly*
@@truthhurts4454 Why? You think there could be some truth to it?
If they can’t get Madonna s a guest judge on Rupauls Drag Race, PLEASE get Nikki and Donna! Get Jose and Carlton while you’re at it!
We had Carlton on this podcast - the videos are on the back feed
What with the 8 minute long videos just give us the whole dam interview geez 😅
'Truth or Dare' with Madonna - their only claim to fame. She's probably long forgotten them.
Probs
Lmao..N Harris thinks some lady putting on a blonde wig could fool the gays who were waiting for Madonna?? No ma'am.
LOLL
That dudes voice 😂
Thank you I love it too
This interview is BORING!!!...and they are not telling the truth...everything was NOT as MAGNIFICANT as they proclaim!
Not a fan?
They had their moments and time with Madonna, she made them famous, move on.
Yes
WONDERFUL INTERVIEW ❤❤❤❤
Thank you - more on the way
