i know! i looked up the video from the moment i watched the Glee version!
Sue Sylvester is better than Madonna!

Glee is so fucking desperate for any original ideas it truly frightens me.
Wow, I haven't seen Madonna's Vogue video in years. Seeing it now just reminded me how awesome she was back in the day. I like Lady Gaga but she still doesn't hold a candle to Madonna in her prime!
I loved this episode! I am a Gleek all the way
Sue is hilarious, "Will Schuester, I hate you!" haha Gotta love Glee, team Rachel and Finn all the way.
Thanks for whoever created this bimulcast.
I was impressed by Jane, too; and her arms are more graceful than Madonna's.
i love this video, looks cool side by side. good job to whoever made it!!
get over it we all saw the video. it's over now. stop beating this episode to death
Re: pinkrockcandi –
It was a salute to Madonna. Apparently, that fact sailed right over you head.
That was sooo cool! I did not know they did the exact music video! Way to go Sue sylvester!!!
It takes a lot of time to get the lighting and shadows just right in several of those shots. Kudos to the folks at Glee for replicating the "effect" so well. It's one thing to dress up and look the same, but to get the "feel" the same, took work. And of course, it's a real editing challenge! I think they are finding some interesting scenery to chew on
They did do a good job, but I don't really see the point of just copying something else, it's never going to be as good. Why didn't they do their own 'version' of it, i.e., get a bit creative, seems a bit pointless to me.
I tried to watch Glee but simply didn't get it. It was just a huge cheese ball fest. I hope perez doesn't cram this show down our throats like he did GaGa
FOR ALL OF US WATCHING MADONNA VIDEOS THROUGH THE YEARS, ONE FACT REMAINS SHE'S NOT ONLY A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN WITH GREAT TALENT, BUT THERE REALLY ISN'T ANYONE SINCE OR BEFORE HER TO MATCH HER. AS FAR AS TALENT AND LOOKS GO MARIAH, CELINE, SHANIA, BRITNEY, JENNIFER, SHAKIRA, CHRISTINA AND GAGAB NOT ONLY DON'T BELONG IN THE SAME CONVERSATION AS MS. CICCONE, THEY NEVER WILL.
Ah!!! I loved that episode so much, and I HAD to go youtube the original video right away! They did AMAZING! I am a total Gleek lol!!!
Madonna's video is ART.
Glee's version is POOP.
That old lady should've learnt how to sing & dance b4 shooting the video.
OMG people the show was not about COPYING her it was an homage to her!!! Hello! There is a big difference between mimicking and paying tribute.
WHO THE F*CK CARES?!?!?

Madonna is a has been who will not get out of the limelight. Go take care of your kids Madonna and stop trying to be a teenager again. You have no talent. If it wasnt for makeup artists, voice coaches, ediquette coaches etc. you'd still be the same whore white trash from Detroit. You didnt fool me. (and britney followed right in your footsteps) At least Lady Gaga has real talent!
Bravo….
Re: pinkrockcandi – Ahh, this was soo an original idea. To revolve an entire episode on Madonna mmusic and to remake a classic hit and to do it with humor and successfully. Imagine the increase in people wanting to see Madonna videos and hear her music. This was spectacular. It was a genious move..
well it's funny, but it ain't Madonna!
yup! tranny!
Re: BottomAceNJ –
Well, its a good thing looks and talent are subjective rather than a FACT, because I can name plenty of artists that can outmatch Madonna in the looks & talent department.
No one compares to Lady M!! But they actually did a great job here!!
i love madonna and i love her vogue and i love glee and i love everything
shame on people that say lady gaga is the new queen of pop after 2 years only…she will never be !
Re: krazykat99 –
My thoughts exactly. They didn't pay tribute to the Vogue video, they just copied it shot by shot. Pointless.
The glee's version has the ugly people in it. There is no comparison-Madonna's is clearly better and only the tweens will jump at Glee's version.
brings back good memories, loved the real vogue with madonna !! Good times !! good times !!! That song and video were so cool when they came out !!
Re: madison20 – umm… her Sticky and Sweet Tour was the highest grossing female tour all of last year..her last album was a greatest hits record with ONE, count it, ONE new song on it and it hit # 1 in 5 countries and hit the top 10 in the United States. If that is a Has-been, I wanna be one TOO!
Absolutely amazing. Madonna does have a great face, but considering the typecasting Jane is known for, seeing her like this is so unexpected and still convincing. Superbly copied!
Remember, Madonna didn't choreograph, direct or stage the Vogue video: they plagiarised it shot-by-shot on the works of glamour photographer Horst, and they didn't give him any credit, either.
This is so one week ago…Up the game Perez!
they really did a great job. they didnt shot the all video,just a part cause vogue is too big. and jane lynch doesnt have madonna attitude.madonna has something special with the cameras that noone else has.Re: John Cusack fan – oh pleae gaga is more to britney than madonna.madonna is amazing.special on stage,. theres noone with her attitude.shes awesome. back in the day and now. gaga is just a copycat,madonna bring us something new and big.and when she started she washuge and now she stilla huge star but shes a legend now. and theres noone better live
Re: madison20 – shut up. gaga is nothing compared to big MADONNA . madonna is alegend. she broke beatles record. shes #1. and madonna has much more attitude than gaga. when madonna started it was huge.ppl say it was way bigger than gaga.for some reason after 30 years madonna shows are the best and the most viewesd. 80 thousand ppl pershow every night. gaga cant do that. gaga only workswith madonna ppl. gaga isnt bringing nothuing new.madonna shocked us with her ideas. gaga is boring. sheslike britney.madonna is like god.shes #1gaga wont handle10 years
Hey - lets talk about how Kate Gosselin "LIED" on her TLC blog when she the day WEDNESDAY night, she was -was "making zipoc snack bag lunches for her Kids>>>>
-
-Unfortunately, Kate was shown on camera, returning back only briefly on THURSDAYfo 20 ins, packing a bag, then off to NYC . . .
-
She's a liar, a liar, a liar,
Re: MadonnaLive – go take your meds freddy, it aint all that bad, madonna is old, so old she cums dust….
FANTABULOUS!
only really easily impressed people would think madonna has talent. what is her talent. lets see does she write her own music. NO. Does she cheograph her dance numbers..NO. Can she sing with help of a studio. NO. ok they because she slept her way to the top and hung out at NYC clubs stealing everyone's style she's a legend. Please I was not fooled by her for a minute. Yes she has broken records because of stupid ignorant people like you and britney fans. Sad!!!
and to say she has much more attitude than Gaga. What does attitude have to do with talent. You're an idiot. and that attitude….ITS A PART OF HER MANUFACTURED ACT!.
Very good
..I think Madonna would enjoy it too
THAT'S what all the fuss is about? And I thought High School Musical was bad. Dearie me.
I just love Madonna's face in the video. Vogue is one of the all time greatest videos and the fact that Glee and Madonna teamed up just shows how relevant Madonna is and also gives people a different Madonna than the one they are used to seeing now. Classic, iconic and of course, Madonna gives great face the whole time. Sue Sylvester's rendition was funny.
Re: hot girl 18 –
your calling her an old lady?
Fuggin' Madonna is an old lady
Re: madison20 –
I love you
Re: MadonnaLive –
What Beatles record did Madonna break? Oh, she has more top hits than them? Wow! It took her 25 years to accomplish what they did in 8. I love how Madonna fans not only think she is the best, but they want everyone else to think she is too. And all these stupid GaGa references…is she that so intimidating? There are so many other artists out there that simply aren't as good that you could complain about. I'm not a big fan of GaGa, but if her success sparks such ire in people like you, I wish her continued success.
Re: MadonnaLive – When Madonna came onto the scene, there was before Madonna and after Madonna. It was like the coming of the whore of babylon. Gaga's rise to fame is not even half of what it was like when Madonna came onto the scene. You have to realize that much of Gaga's fame has to do with the internet…Madonna mania spread across the world just by her videos and appearances on TV and news papers. Madonna is a classic, a legend and icon. Lady Gaga is no where near that or ever will be unless she's around for another 25 years like Madonna has. Until then, Madonna is still the greatest, bar-none.
Re: madison20 –
Take some Midol and stop PMSing.
We're sure you're just as talentless as you claim Madonna is.
Stop arguing, it's the damn Internet. I swear, you idiots have too much time on your hands.
Enough. Madonna is outstanding. Glee was fun but its C O P Y I N G . ANYONE can look at a movement. Do the movement. Film the movement. A movement is 2 seconds and then they stop. Jeez enough
Uh yeah, a whole week later…. did you Tivo your Glee and just get t it?
The Glee version is better by far!
Re: goodtasteishardtofind –
Madonna's rise to fame had to do with MTV. Period! I don't know why people foolishly try to compare Gaga and Madonna's success. Different times, different ways now of getting your music out. The internet has been around for a good 15 plus years now, yet there's not that many artists in those past 15 years that's had quite an impact as Lady Gaga on the whole music scene.
Glee's does a better Vogue. By far.
Mariah's videos just cant compare to Madonna in her prime. Why is Mariah such a failure at eveyrthing Madonna excels at?? Touring, videos, provocative button-pushing, etc.
I guess Mariah will never know. Thats what happens when you are some Jersey shore trash that marries record industry bigwig Tommy Mottola.
Re: goodtasteishardtofind – Re: MadonnaLive –
gobblegobblegobble… find a new purpose in life…
very very cool…Glee did a really great job.
I love the fact Madonna made this video 20 years ago and it's still better then all the ones of today. She'll always be the Queen of Pop and Britney, GaGa and all the others are just the 2nd rate copies.
Re: madison20 – Did you still Whitney Houston's crack pipe? How fucking naive are you if you think Madonna is out of the limelight when she's at the top of the Forbes earners list, had huge global hits over the last decade, all her albums from Music, American Life, Confessions and Hard Candy over the last 10 years have hit number 1 and she had the highest grossing tour of a solo artist ever. GaGa wouldn't be shit if it wasn't for Madonna doing it first and better. Clearly you're 16 and don't have a fucking clue.
OMG THIS VIDEO I LUV IT.. ITS THE SHER ESSENCE OF WHY SO MANY YOUNG KIDS TURN TO THE BALLROOM SCENE… LOOK AT ME FATHER JOSE XTRAVAGANZA IN THE VID …WOW HE LOOKS SO YOUNG …
Re: goodtasteishardtofind – before madonna and after madonna? it all makes sense now. congratulations, you've just singlehandedly pinpointed the exact moment when music got shit.
i am totally a Gleek and love sue's version.
really impressive how they make it so extact.
good tribute !!
That is so STYLISH it hurts….

"When Madonna came onto the scene, there was before Madonna and after Madonna."

Ah, yes..I rembember..Before Madonna was much more of a pleasant time in music history. Thank God I had alternative and college radio to listen to during the After Madonna period.
when will this show be canceled gah
Glee's version is very good…But Madonna is the best and will always be the best. She is so sexy in this video. That sexiness could not be replicated in Glee's version ! Madonna always comes up with ORIGINAL stuff, she keeps reinventing herself, while others follow in her tracks or copy her.
NO COMPARARISON, SOME FLABBY BITCH DOING GLEE AND TIGHT HOT MADDONNA DOING HER VOGUE STUFF !!!!
Just another reason to love Jane
Madonna is better but Sue put out a good effort. Madonna just has that something extra, pizzaz and charisma that just can't be beat,
Who is that hideous woman playing the part of Madonna? I've never seen Glee once because I never watch TV. I'll continue on the same path!
Anyone who can recently make $408 Million on a tour (highest grossing female artist tour in history)….is no has been. But the haters still try. LOL

It took confidence for Jane to even attempt that. They did a good job. She wasn't trying to copy or outdo Madonna. It was almost tongue-in-cheek, but yet it was serious with regard to respect.

Re: MadonnaLive –
fuck you stupid ass
madonna has never broken the beatels records
you're a big liar
Madonna re-invents herself once again through the SUBLIME Jane Lynch.
Age and treachery will overcome youth and skill.
A brilliant, stylish satire that gives the original a run for its money.
Oh, and by the way, nice rack, Jane.

What is even more amazing about the Jane Lynch version is that she's a better singer than Madonna!
Re: madonna is shit – And you take loads of donkey spunk if your loose ass kunt!
i really don't get this glee craze. so they are able to mimic popular artists…what's the point and what's so impressive about lack of originality? the show itself is a different story - as a SHOW. but i'm not into glorifying the regurgitation of music.
this video was fun.
the glee 'power of madonna' episode was fun.
no more.
no less.
I love this episode. They did do a pretty good job w/it. They definetly should do Britney
Love Madonna, Glee did a great job. Both awesome. By the way Madonna has been the most successful woman artist she is worth close to a half a billion. So I think the fact that she is so successful with the fact that she looks better than most women in their early fourties makes her pretty hot. White trash believes you have to look and act matronly if you age. Well too fucking bad.
Re: chickster – This is a show about a high school glee club. Glee clubs sing covers. Their originality is in the form of vocal talent, arrangement and orchestration. They "remade" the Vogue video with the kind of satire only the wonderful Jane Lynch as Sue Sylvester can pull off. If you watched the show you would see why. The fact that it stays so true to the original only adds to its awesomeness.
Re: krazykat99 – It was a salute to Madonna. Apparently, that fact sailed right over you head.

Lol at Sue's dancing. I still enjoyed it though.
Madonna looked flawless in that video.
Wow-Jane did a amazing job.
Re: John Cusack fan – I agree. GaGa will never, ever come close to Madonna. And no to GaGa-it has nothing to do with you being happy to be different. It has to do with the fact that you aren't even in the same boat as Madonna. Madonna in this video reminds me a lot of Gwen Stefani.
Love it
Keep hating haters. You know Madonna is the Queen. Can't take that from her no matter how much you try. Just like everything else in the digital age, Lady Gaga will be just a trend and never a classic. The last superstar was Britney Spears.
Re: DanielDax – Well sir, you can keep on wishing because there is no way Lady Gaga will go down in the history books. In comparison to Madonna's success and longevity, Lady Gaga is a blip on the radar just like Britney Spears is a blip on her radar. To put it all in perspective for you all, Britney Spears will always be mentioned after Madonna as an icon, then Beyonce. Lady Gaga isn't even in that league. She's not charming, she not cool, she's not clever, she's not creative, she's not anything special. Lady Gaga is absolutely nothing next to Madonna. Perez knows this, everyone on earth knows this. And no, Madonna fans are not threatend in the least. We are just stating the obvious for all the naive people who were born in 2009. The others will always be playing catch up to Madonna. Madonna did electro-pop back in 2003 for American Life…past forward five years and Gaga does it. Madonna was doing european dance music back in 1996, fast forward 14 years and now Tiesto, Guetta and many other dance acts are finally breaking big.
Re: goodtasteishardtofind – I totally agree. First legend: Madonna, then Brit, then Beyonce. GaGa is like a tree ornament. She's there for a short moment and that's it. I do think GaGa will be around a while but her fans, success and so on doesn't compare to Madonna, Brit and Beyonce. And never will!
Re: goodtasteishardtofind –
Like it or not, GaGa is making history as we speak. Just the fact that she was nowhere mentioned in the original post, yet she is always brought up by Madonna fans just shows she's a powerful force. Whether or not she'll last 25 years or 25 minutes has yet to be seen, but even if she fades into obscurity, people will remember her years from now. People haven't forgotten about Cyndi Lauper, have they?
People don't need another lecture on Madonna's greatness. Posting sales figures and other propaganda isn't going to change anyone's opinion about her. Her longevity–twenty-five years– is really just a drop in the bucket. U2 and AC/DC have been doing this for a little over 30 years. Cher, Paul McCartney, and Barbra Streisand have been doing it for over 40. Sinatra was active in the business for over sixty years when he died.
As far as Madonna doing electronica as far back as 1996, I think she was a little late jumping on the bandwagon: Donna Summer was doing that back in 1977.
This is unbelievable! awesome!
What's the point of redoing something if you don't add anything to it?…It's lame. Plus the old woman in Glee can't actually do the dance moves (she just does the arms thing)… It sucks. Madonna so sorry they messed up your songs but don't worry only american could really see that…
I'm waiting to see if Lady GaGa outdoes Madonna! GaGa might just push Madge off of her long-time throne! But every1 will always love Madonna, and I really love Madonna's energy. She's good vibrations, even at over 50. I hope that she continues to entertain and to be hot-stuff all the way to the end of her life, just like Tina Turner! ~
Re: DanielDax – Thank you.
Re: ShellyBelle – Lady GaGa will never outdue Madonna b/c Madonna did it all first. Aside from being miles ahead of her closet compeition (Mariah Carey) when it comes to being a global pop icon you forget that millions of women in the 80's/90's wanted to look and be like Madonna and millions of men wanted to be with her. GaGa is just like a character, not the greatest sex symbol since Marilyn Monroe.
