No. Madonna's singing was atrocious. You gotta take your blinders off for a second, dude.
And that's coming from someone who used to have every single inch of his bedroom covered with her face.

"the press seem to have loved it"
This seems to be your go-to support statement, which in this case is supposed to override the actual ears of actual humans who were watching and listening?
Apparently we have different definitions of "fine".
Madonna's screeching woke me up out of a sound sleep last night. I couldn't fall back to sleep after that. Bitch!
As a former Madonna fan, she's crossed over the line as far as I'm concerned. She never was a good singer,but now she's too desperate with her attitude and trying to look young and current.
I wish she would just settle into being a rich mother and homemaker but it won't happen, I fear.
Yeah, I like some of her older music, but she is horrible as a person now. And her singing is really nothing special. I still stand by my opinion that she looked like the Quaker Oat Man.

All those musicians and NOBODY with a pitch pipe to help the poor thing?
Perhaps she's deaf
Madonna has turned into late-era Mae West. What is it with her and the damned cowboy hats? I wasn't that bothered by her voice being WAY off, but she looked like she was in physical pain and her eyes looked out of it. Perhaps she was on meds??
Yeah her voice was bad and she looked out of it. I think that's the first time I've seen Madonna perform live and thought she was on something.
Maybe it was due to her Fibromyalgia
She sort of looked like a really bad picture of Dolly Parton now. Sheesh. And yes, as a former Madonna fan, I have to be honest... she sounded HORRID. She pulled me out of a beautiful moment. I was crying and then it immediately went to WTF?!!
P!nk was fvcking fantastic.
Madonna's eyes have become tiny slits. That surprised me.
And Open Your Heart was from when I loved her most, so it made me especially sad.
RE Madonna: I used to be her biggest fan, but now I just want her to die a violent death.
That escalated quickly.

I saw a quote recently, and who knows if it's a reliable source, where she said it pisses people off when she wears those stupid teeth contraptions so that's why she keeps on wearing them.

But the press just LOVES those stupid teeth contraptions, Namo. So that trumps your reliable source.

It's just weird because any SANE therapist (and surely she sees a therapist multiple times a week, no?) would probably point out that doing something repeatedly simply to piss people off is counter-productive for somebody who seeking affirmation from the adoring masses. Or does she realize that is mostly over?

On of my best friends just said, "Maybe she was their 'something old.'"
^ Haha! Thank goodness I was not eating my soup at the moment while reading that. She always looks sickly now. Has Madonna ever gotten plastic surgery? I actually don't know, so that's why I'm asking.

Just some subtle work, here and there, barely noticeable. Just looks like she's getting more rest and hydrating better.
Her therapist is probably afraid of her.
p..s. I think she looks the worst she's ever looked. Slit tension-laded eyes.
These comments are ageist and sexist!
I mean...I laughed...hard. I just had to say that to feel better about the darkness in my soul.

Madonna on Times Square in her spare time.
