Madonna always liked being polemic, that’s not
a secret. Among ups and downs in her new tour, polemic wouldn’t be left out,
that’s a fact. On the first chapters of the novel entitled MDNA TOUR, Madonna
has already accused Lady Gaga of plagiarism (again), showed a boob (again),
kissed a female dancer (again), abused of religious issues (again) and caused
some embarrassment in the Middle East. And if we are talking about Madonna,
that’s for sure just the beginning. It’s a pity that there is nothing new among
all that. Madonna has become repetitive. And that’s a pity…again.
Madonna started her MDNA TOUR LAST May 31, in
Israel. And strategic countries were chosen to continue her new odyssey, places
in which sex and religion are still themes strongly delicate. And it
worked beautifully. If she
wanted polemic – doubts? – her mission was accomplished successfully. Madonna
shocked the public in the Arab Emirates with religious messages, and, also, she
kissed a female dancer. In Turkey, Madonna showed a boob while she sang “Human
Nature” and in Italy she showed her ass. Not yet satisfied, Madonna is also
pointing Lady Gaga as her copy once more. In a certain moment of the show,
Madonna sings “Express Yourself” followed by Gaga’s “Born this way”, finishing
with “She’s not me”. Lady Gaga already showed that she didn’t like it. That is,
Madonna got what she wanted – reactions, good or bad, whatever. But causing
polemic with religious and sex and Lady Gaga is something made by her several
times before. Madonna is living over her past as she notices that maybe she
doesn’t have something new to offer other than polemics. But in the past this
type of attitude put Maddona as a revolutionary woman, now a days such acts
sound more like a woman who doesn’t know to anything other than that, other
than causing polemics of whatever type, in a desperate act to be alive. And,
except for such controversial moments, there is not too much to expect from
this Tour. Madonna simply amplified her SuperBowl Show – the essence of the
MDNA TOUR was already there. And what was good and exciting in 11 minutes got
boring and repetitive in 2 hours that didn’t bring great surprises, in which
Madonna didn’t show anything really new, apart all the visual structure, which
is quite impacting, either the scenarios or the costumes, everything impeccable.
Talking about music – remember, she is a singer – Madonna fails in several
aspects. Her voice didn’t sound any good, even with a playback helping; her
body didn’t respond to dance as it did before – moments in which she dances
like in other previous tours are rare; and the set list counts with just few
hits that cause people to jump and get excited. In a nutshell, watching Madonna’s
MDNA TOUR is like watching a very good action movie, with scenes visually
amazing, with a script, though, with no further meanings.
