Try Harder

Filed under: Anglophilia

These are the stars of the new London musical based on the film Desperately Seeking Susan.

The show uses the music of Blondie to tell its story.

And that hideous hag on the right is supposed to be Madonna in her prime.

Blasphemy!!!

      You want to see hedious … look in the mirror. Honestly, you used to be semi amusing. Now you are just a pathetic celebrity wannabe.

      why the fuck would they use blondie's music? the music from the soundtrack is great already! they shouldn't mess with madonna if they can't do it right. the girl playing rosanna arquette's character is busted uuupppp!

    24. Mhasnotalent says – reply to this


      24

      Never thought Mandonna was good looking well maybe after some photoshopping.
      She is certainly the Man now with those hands and arms not to mention that hard matronly look.

    25. madmargaret says – reply to this


      25

      It's getting horrible reviews! Even the photos from the show look bad. They reset the show in 1979 and added Blondie music. It's a disaster.

    26. Brian says – reply to this

      without blondie, there wouldn't have been madonna, so it's more like, look it's madonna trying to be blondie, perfect fit!

      No, you dumb cunt, she is NOT supposed to be Madonna…she's supposed to be the same character that Madonna played, in one of her fucking pathetic attempts at acting.

      Re: Brian –

      RIGHT ON, Brian!!! Madonna would be a fucking street-whore if Blondie and Debbie Harry hadn't paved the way for her. Madonna can't even fucking sing. She is irrelevant. Debbie STILL ROCKS!

    32. So? says – reply to this


      32

      They're both too old for their roles but on the stage, that doesn't really matter.

      anyone older than 30, knows madonna looked like a hideous hag in her prime.

      Re: douche hole –

      Madonna would BE no matter what. When Madonna is working out, Harry is shooting up heroin. While Madonna rehearses, Harry laments. Give me a break. The only similarity is blond hair.

    35. douche hole says – reply to this


      35

      Re: pud –

      You're a retard. Debbie TODAY looks younger than gap-toothed, fake-British, zombie-hands Mandonna. And Debbie did heroin decades ago, kicked it, and all along made way cooler music than that ugly media whore ever has without having to do some lame-ass "Sex" book or documentaries about herself.

      37

      MADONNA WAS A HIDEOUS HAG AT HER PRIME, SHE'S NOW A MIDDLE AGED HIDEOUS HAG. SHE WAS BORN A HIDEOUS HAG.

      I did like the movie, and I do love Blondie, who was a GLAMOUR GODDESS at her prime, but this is another case of NO IMAGINATION. Can't somebody come up with something NEW??? Can't they come up with something that is just INFLUENCED by something, someone, and not just a REMAKE???

      mariosuperdunce: What are you talking about? That trashy skank Madonna ever had a prime. Extract your head–your few remaining brain cells need the air.

      It's come to this? Madonna NOW could play Madonna in IN HER PRIME!

      What is everyone's problems with aging. Everyone is getting older, why fight it or hate it so much. I really think gay men are especially fearful of aging because men, in general, are all about the superficial exterior. You'll all get there one day and regret your words!!!

      Smurfito Perez;
      Catherine Deneuve’s grand daugther, Marcel is hot! I wish you would give her more juego. Debbie Harry is still hot!!! I wish Louise could have a cameo in the play. The musical needs to loosen up and be a homageto/romp through new wave and the "trash with flash movement".
      PS. It should be like "Rochelle Rochelle"

      Re: douche hole – um………….I like a lot of Blondie's music but be real………when was the last time Debbie Harry had a world-wide #1 album??? And I've seen live footage of her on cable recently and her voice has gone to shit. I believe in early interviews Madonna cited Harry & Chrissy Hynde as big influences on her so it's not like she didn't acknowledge that aspect of her persona. And I'm sorry but, sure, looking back on 1985 today it looks like a joke, but that was the shit then. Tons of girls all over the US were copying the way Madonna looks in Susan. We'll see how this generations fads & fashions & hair styles hold up twenty years from now. Madonna ruled back then, plain & simple. Suck on it if you don't like it.

      LOL, she looks just exactly like Madonna! No one wants to remember what that slut looked like when she started out - a fat ho rolling around the floor like a pig in a pen.

    49. keli says – reply to this


      49

      uh.
      the woman (on the right) looks EXACTLY like her.
      and trust me, I am picky with lookalikes. They almost never look like who they're supposed to.

      Too bad that "hideous hag on the right" looks a hell of a lot better than Madonna ever did in her prime…

    51. Madonna Sucks says – reply to this


      51

      You know that "hideous hag" can act and sing circles around the now haggard and hideous Madonna.

    52. Hey, Idiot Boy says – reply to this


      52

      No, dumbass Perez, that's not supposed to be Madonna in her prime. That is supposed to be a character called Susan, that a horrible actress named Madonna played in a movie a gazillion years ago. The character looks like that. Madonna was playing a character, that admitedly dressed in a similar manner. And I might add that Madonna is lucky the chatacter was similar to her because otherwise her acting would have been just as awful as it has been in every other movie she has ever made. Here, it was merely bad.
      And BTW, I would go easy on using the words "hideous" and "hag", especially because Madonna is looking pretty beat up these days herself!

      Re: Mike T –

      Hey genius, having a world-wide #1 album says nothing about talent. It's a testament to marketing skills and producing whatever shit that the dumbass public will consume simply because that dumb slag put it out. Blondie albums do way better in Europe because they're smart enough to not bother trying to appeal to the stupid US masses that buy crap like Madonna. Debbie's voice shows age for sure, but she writes her own music and doesn't rely on overproduction to disguise a lack of vocal skill. Listen to "Necessary Evil." She sounds better than ever. I've seen her live several times and she is incredible. She doesn't need to surround herself by dancers and "controversy" to distract from a lack of vocal skill. Ever heard Mandonna without backing tracks? YIKES. It ain't pretty. Debbie can also ACT, unlike Mandonna. See "Heavy." She is amazing.

      Personally, if someone told me I looked enough like Madonna to play her, I'd rip their balls off. And whoever is playing Debbie, uh, wrong choice.

      Re: Mike T – It hasn't gone to shit. And even if it eventually does, at least she'll have had a legitimate career behind her. What's precious Madge have to fall back on? Oh, right, a lifetime of scandal that she's afraid to let her children know about. Wonder what she'll do when they're old enough to know what a bullshit artist she is.

      Maybe they got someone who can actually sing . . .another thing that's unlike Madonna.

      I think this will be the last time I log on to this website. Two performers who you've probably never seen, let alone met, and you bash them based on appearance.

      It's high time you take a look in the mirror and stop projecting your inner-loathing onto other individuals such as these ladies. For all you know, the musical could be very good along with these people in it.

      I enjoy Madonna also. She's political, provocative, shrewd and inspiring. But she's also a narcissist and her vocal talents are well-known to be aided by good production values. Not much of a challenge to play her onstage.

      I'm happy for your accomplishments and I do hope you find continued success, but it's time to grow up a little. There will come a day when all this glitz and glamour will not seem as all fabulous and that empty void in your soul will start to ache…..
