Ukrainians, who are literally being bombed and seeking shelter where they can, are supporting her.

I imagine those Ukrainians “literally being bombed” aren’t thinking about anything Madonna right now.

That's what matters. Not us going back and forth on a pop culture forum. Cheers

You’re doing a lot of back and forth on a pop culture forum to defend a woman with a long history of insensitive behavior.

If this post was to raise awareness and Ukrainians are grateful for it... who are we to judge or care. That was his point. 

That’s fine. But tbf, this has been major news daily for months, let’s not act like Madonna is bringing some new found awareness with an Instagram video.

My point is that a few hundred Ukrainian madonna fans liking her post does not speak for the entire population of those impacted by the violence. I have no doubt there’s some Ukrainians who would take offense to this. There’s so many less self-centered ways to show support for Ukraine, and yet she chose such a weird and divisive method. You don't have to ignore that just because you believe she had good intent.

I despise madonna’s personality and antics but to be fair it’s in bad taste but it’s also a fan-edit maybe she thought it seemed relevant? it’s not as though her team produced it to promote a song. A fan made it and she shared it…

i think you are reading way too much into it.

Tbh, making an argument over 3 pages on a forum is a little self-centered, to use your phrasing. 
i think your point is valid and has been heard, you dont like the video, but why do you try so hard to convince everybody otherwise who does not agree with you? 
This level of self presentation gives me tiktok dancing in front of a burning building vibes and im pretty sure this was not your intend.

it's just a discussion lol

That's exactly those kind of threads that confirms Lady Gaga is definitely postponing Chromatica Ball announcement Just because of some idiot pop stans online that can't understand artists are artists and they are doing their job.

Let artists entertain the world. Let the politician handle the Ukrain situation.

[27monster27 16,064]

Of course we have yet another thread of misogynists who are incapable of letting women speak on political issues. People shamed Madonna for this in 2003, Katy in 2017, Lady Gaga in 2020, etc. When are people going to be able to let women speak? You guys are aware that you literally stan a celebrity that would be appalled by your behavior correct?

[enissa11 2,984]

just imagine gaga doing something like this... posting the video of the "arrest me russia" with a similar message .... extremely self-centered indeed, like she needs some reaffirmation, things like that really make me feel like celebrities are doing it more for the clout than for really being helpful in the most effective ways, that video is extremely distasteful, in any case at least it actually helps for the awareness of the issue, but that's not how it ends and it's not the most effective way to help.
i hope she's really donating behind the scenes or doing something, talking to politicians and demanding action.
because otherwise it's like:

@PartySick Can the title please be updated to be more accurate and not falsely accusing Madonna of using this for clout?

LOL “Using an online forum the way online forms are typically used is self-centered.” And those using the same 3 pages of this forum to tirelessly defend madonna because they can’t stand to see their fave be criticized is somehow less or not self-centered?

Why assume I’m trying to convince anyone? I was quoted and responded. My first comment didn’t even have anything to do with how I personally felt about Madonna’s post. If anything, the people quoting me (and the others they disagree with) are the ones trying so hard to convince people that what madonna did was perfectly acceptable. I’m allowed to respond if don’t agree with that.

Me when I saw madonna dancing to her own remix in a lavender leotard juxtaposed against images of war zones, hitler, and dead bodies as a literal battle wages:

still waiting Gaga to say something on the Ukraine situation...i mean she has nothing to lose...the oscar nomination season is long gone

The title should be "GGD Users Being Hypocritical and Using Attack on Ukraine to Promote Their Hate on Madonna"
