When you’re singing you can hear the echo of people in the audience singing every single word with you, and that was that big dream that I had for myself. It’s happening.
I’ve always just wished that maybe someday people would care about the words that I wrote.
I don’t know if you know who you are, until you lose who you are.
My fans don’t feel like I hold anything back from them. They know whatever I’m going through now, they’ll hear about it on a record someday. They’ll hear the real story. There’s a little bit of lag time. It’s not as instant as going on a gossip blog. But it’s much more accurate.
Being a powerful woman who also exhibits great warmth is an incredible feat because people think that to be powerful you have to be cold, and you don’t.
I don’t think it’s the most important thing in life to fit it. I think it’s the most important thing in life to dance to the beat of your own drum and to look like you’re having more fun than the people who look cool like they fit in.
If you fall in love based on zero hours spent with me? That’s maybe something to be aware of. That will fade fast. You can’t be in love with a google search.
When I meet my fans, it’s not like meeting a stranger. It’s like saying hello to someone that I already know.
One element of Madonna’s career that really takes center stage is how many times she’s reinvented herself. It’s easier to stay in one look, one comfort zone, one musical style. It’s inspiring to see someone whose only predictable quality is being unpredictable.
I think love is one of those things that it’s only really bad because it was once good. You can’t miss something that was never amazing. So, what I’ve learned is that even if it ends badly, it’s worth it if it made you feel something, if it taught you something.
You’ve had your share of secrets and I’m tired of being the last to know.
And for me, I guess the person who I tell everything that I’m going through is you. The fans.
If they don’t like you for being yourself, be yourself even more.
Words are everything to me. Words can build you up and feel so good. On the flip side, words can absolutely demolish you.
I think that it’s fearless to fall for your best friend, even though he’s in love with someone else.
Growing up is scary because it happens without you knowing it.
I don’t think you should ever take life so serious that you forget to play.
I have this really high priority on happiness and finding something to be happy about.
I think that growing up is something that you should do gradually.
A song is a favorite song, not because the singer can hit and hold a high note, but because of the words, their meaning.
