Yawn. Madonna and all her crotch shots are getting old. Her music always sounds the same. She's a good marketer….
Re: Aldous Huxley – I noticed this too. What is up with all the money signs??? Does this bitch give anything to people in need or just her cunt ass self??? Adopting kids from 3rd world countries does not count. That was for attention….I am sure she has never changed a diaper in her fucking life.
Re:#93 - bren
You turn the radio off when you hear Madonnas Music but you waste your time here commenting on her !?! Please explain…….
And FYI…..when you trash someone you should really know what you are talking about first.
Madonnas eyes are NATURALLY BLUE. She wore Brown Contacts for Evita.

"Madonna has been stealing glodfrapps sound in recent years" American Life & Hard Candy sound nothing Like Goldfrapp and Goldfrapp didn't invent the kinda sound that was on COAD……..The sound on COAD was european which happens to be where Goldfrapp is from……that is the only connection….if that is the Case….what is to be said about Kylie? Oh I forgot, madonna has a love for Horses & included that in her Confessions Tour (remember when she fell from a horse & broke the whole left side of her body?) and because Goldfrapp also had a horse theme Madonna stole it? If that is the case…..Madonna did it better!
FINALLY PEREZ! YOU HAVE REPORTED SOMETHING INTERESTING AND ANTI-MADONNA. GOLDFRAPP ARE REAL ARTISTS NOT POP STARS! DID YOU FINALLY BUY SOME AND HAVE A REVELATION.? MADONNA IS KNOWN AS "OLDFRAPP" HERE IN THE U.K. KEEP ON KEEPIN ON ALISON AND WILL..WE LOVE YOU!
LATER.
and just plain average. She never made a dime off me!
Re: Zoe –
i do care, yr comment is on the level of stupid primary school girl :]
Fuck you Alison Goldfrapp! Madonna rules!
its the "sticky & sweet" tour… And so what if Allison doesn't like madonna's music… I wouldn't expect her to. Its not her preference… I'm sure that quote was taken out of context anyway.
Of course she doesn't, Madonna has tried to steal her style in the past as well. Besides, Alison has more talent in a tip of one of her hair than the old skank Madge has as a whole.
Vagonna was never a diva, just a demanding greedy whore.
Thats pretty shitty to say about her, considering Madonna has always liked Goldfrapp and has supported them.
ALLISON on the other hand has looked ALOT like Madonna in a shit load of pics and has copied her singing style it seems (to me, at least). I like Goldfrapp too, but this ”alison” is NO BIG fuckn' deal. unlike Madonna who is THE SHIT and is more relevant than her. Stupid bitch. Watch that come fuckn bite her in the ass.
YOU SAID IT, ALISON! Madonna is so fucking mediocre, and a pathetic, money-grubbing media whore. GOLDFRAPP RULES!!!
I like Goldfrapp's music, but Alison Goldfrapp is well known to be an egotistical mega-bitch. Maybe if she did have some admiration for Madonna's work, she'd actually sell some albums.
Re: NICO………….Couldn't have said it better myself!
LMAO at all the Lambs using Alison as an excuse to trash Madonna…….Do they even know who she is?
I take what they say with a grain of salt considering Mariah has been sporting the same Get up & sound since 1995……When she was a SAMPLE QUEEN (Fantasy, Honey, Heartbreaker ect ect) but they are her critizing Madonna.
Re: Elvis – Actually,it DOES matter what Goldfrapp has to say about Vadge, because in the end, Madonna would kill to have the kind of musical talent Goldfrapp has. Madonna may be immortalized in history books but nothing can change the fact that her most memorable talent is her ability to rip off trends, market the fuck out of them and then laugh all the way to the bank. Wow. What a contribution.
Sticky Fingers tour? Gee, whats next? The Exile on Main St tour?
Try something original next time…
golfrapp lol , then was does the lead singer dress like the 80s madonna,,
Re: Nina – THATS BECAUSE MADONNA COPIES HER
I saw Alison Goldfrapp in concert recently and I have to say it was one of the worst I have ever seen. In the course of her scant 1:15 show, she bitched more about being sick and the technical difficulties than she actually sang. It was a horrible display of artistry…if you could even call it that.
Personally, I don't think Alison Goldfrapp has any admiration for her own work. It definitely showed during her concert.
Viva! La Alison!!
Re: Ray – GAWD YOU ARE DUMB!!
FUCK YOU PEREZ. Hope you gain all your weight back. Slut!
madonna can be old but she is HOT and better than all the teenagers that are her wannabies.justin said that there was only one madonna .she is fucking hot .she sells.everything that she touchs torns to gold.she is a business woman.

HATER!!!
Madonna is amazing! But WHO the HELL is Alison Goldfrapp? No, it's OK not to like Madonna's music or whatever… just wondering who this Goldsnatch person is.
p.s. the Rolling Stones didn't invent or have a monopoly on the term "sticky fingers"
Goldfrapp is awesome….love her voice, love her music. Madonna is a manufactured money machine and even she knows it. She is propped up by talented people around her. She's good at making money and sounding important. Her "music" sucks.
Re: so – goldfrapp is not "indie", electronic maybe anybody with a song for a victoria's secret commercial is not indie.
indie music is not played anywhere near radio or television, i guess you think deathcab falls into the 'indie' catagory too huh?
PerezHilton.com is a wonderful indicator of the popular culture at large.
The overwhelming majority of comments to Perez's Madonna posts are hugely negative. Even hateful.
Could it really be over for this lady from Detroit?
Even if it is, Madge'll be laughing all the way to the bank- having fooled so many for so long.
"Essentially- Madonna has usurped a half a billion dollar fortune from the world's gay men. That money could have potentially found a cure for AIDS."
Goldcrap SUCKS!
Great quote. Hits home perfectly.
agreed
Whatever, Madonna will ALWAYS be around and successful no matter what. And for all you haters …“Envy is a symptom of lack of appreciation of our own uniqueness and self worth."
Alison who??? Sounds like some wannabes who is jealous and wants to stir up "controversy" so her name appears in the news. Try harder.
lol. Goldfrapp is awesome. All you bitches trying to ask yourself who is this, try to be more open to music, not to your radio shit. Madonna is such a looser. She needs to retire. OLD HAG!!!
Maybe she has a point? Maybe its time for Madonna to give it up - she's looking pretty old, and when I saw the video with Justin, it was just really…….sad. Like he was dancing with his mom.
Madonna luv - I was there when you started. and you are amazing and have had an amazing career. Now step aside and let someone else have the limelight. I think almost 30 years on top is enough time momma, don't you??
A lady always knows when to leave the party.
And nobody bag on me - we are all entitled to our opinion.
Goldfrap is huge in Europe she is original writes her own music and she is very creative with her style she sets the trend not follow it as for Madonna listened to her new album and seen one of her new videos which are both crap. I have never seen the fascination in Madonna she has no natural talent she has just slept her way to the top and only portrays her self as a slut….
I've always agreed with that comment since Madonna first got famous. LMAO.
Goldfrapp is amazing. and it's interesting that madonna continually puts out work that is successful–not many artists can do that, especially over a span of two decades. So while she is very respectable for that, Goldfrapp is still better because her music is just to delicious to not enjoy. and her voice is great, and also the synthesizing in her music.
I've heard that Alison Goldfrapp is bigger bitch than Madonna, and that's not easy! LMAO! I can understand her statement though it makes sense, Madonna is a very clever marketer, but she's not a real artist!
Goldfrapp is so much better than Madonna.
Madonna just copies off of other artists, including Goldfrapp.
You know, Madonna asked Goldfrapp to PRODUCE her new album, and they DECLINED.
Hahaha.
You all who have never heard of Alison Goldfrapp are very unfortunate indeed.
well said frappe!
Well, I have no comments for her quote, It really uncool what Allison said about Madonna, but who cares, Madonna rules.
I won't get into the fight if Madonna or Goldfrapp is better, I LOVE THEM BOTH! Their music is so amazing, so I can't say anything, But Alison should cherish Madonna's work FOR REAL!
WELL STATED!!! MADONNA IS TRAILER TRASH WITH $$! SHE'S OVER AND NEEDS TO START ACTING LIKE A LADY IN HER OLD AGE!
JAJAJA, Alison tiene razon, Madonna solamente colecciona lo mejor de otros artistas y después lo presenta como suyo, pero lo que no cabe duda, es que es una diosa en el escenario
The truth hurts, doesn't it?!
Madonna keeps stealing Alison Goldfrapp's ideas over and over and over.
Hence the name, " Sticky Fingers" .
Alsion Goldfrapp ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuules
Re: Lulu – Word! How can people think Madonna is good? Hasn't anyone heard her sing live?!? She's awful and she just used her body to rise in the ranks of singer, just like many other bubblegum pop artists. Now I liked Madonna's early tunes for their catchy, kitschy, processed beats, but artistically Madonna is seriously lacking. She's old now and should stop singing altogether. She's no Streisand or Midler. She's no Michael Jackson. She's a fuckin' poser who has gone so far from her Detroit roots into all kinds of weird bullshit. GOLDFRAPP IS TALENTED AND HAS NOT TRIED TO REPLICATE MADONNA! Their album Supernature comes the closest to pop diva sounds, but their other albums are much more reflexive.
WELL SAID ALISON GOLDFRAPP! Madonna is nuthing but fanfare and bright lights plus shock value. As a MUSICIAN SHE SUCKS. Goldfrapp now she is the REAL DEAL. She is what Madonna WISHES she could be. If you listen to Madonna speak in interviews she is always referencing how hot someone else's music is like Bjork , or Timbaland, or Mark Ronson. She just doesn't do her own thing musically as well as she does her own thing performance art wise well. She is NOT a musician, she is a performance artist and I am tired of her. Her ego is old news, if I saw her on the street I would NOT step aside for her or make sure she got her drink first st Starbucks. In other words she is not really anything that great in my book. Nothing but a famewhore who is quite brilliant and being trendy, shmoozing with hip people, and being a big smelly provocative whore. That might have been cool 20 yrs ago, but now… BORING!!!!
Re: Chase – Madonna is a vulgar whore who on interviews acts as an english lady, but still is an american skank on the inside, Alison Goldfrapp on the other sideeeeeee
That's pathetic….comments like those…typical of envious and really UNTALENTED, SUPER LOW SELF-STEEM PEOPLE, like Goldfrapp. Her music is awful and depressing. No breakthrough performances, just the same shit. On the contrary, Madonna's work has survived the time, and has always been a HIT, a breakthrough, a TREND, whatever people say, or whoever critiques it. Madge just rules as any other royalty. Goldfrapp is
a moron….SHITEOUSFRAPP
Re: Aldous Huxley – THANK YOU!!
