The Late Late Show: Carpool Karaoke With Madonna

US Weekly raves about the “carpool karaoke” episode we’ve all been waiting for The Late Late Show‘s James Corden to deliver:

Bitch, she’s Madonna. New York City drivers, beware: The Material Girl does not like to be cut off when she’s driving. The Queen of Pop joined James Corden for Carpool Karaoke on The Late Late Show on Wednesday, December 7, and the segment began with their black SUV getting cut off by a Manhattan bus. “Let’s drive up next to the bus. I want to give him what’s what,” Madonna, 58, told the host before calling him a p–sy. “You let people get away with bad behavior, they’re gonna do it again.”

First up came “Vogue,” as the pair began singing and striking poses, including a mile-high leg in the air from the singer. Then she began twerking as “Bitch I’m Madonna” played. Then they discussed whether her children liked her new music, and the Grammy winner admitted that while her four kids “are quite rebellious,” she’s “quite square.” “When I go home, I’m Julie Andrews,” she insisted.

Corden, 38, then changed the subject to men and marriage and asked what it was like hanging out with the late Michael Jackson. “You want me to kiss and tell then, don’t you?” she teased before admitting that she had kissed the King of Pop (with tongue), after getting him to loosen up with a glass of chardonnay. “Baby, I’ve been around,” she said.

Coming This Wednesday: “Carpool Karaoke With Madonna!”

This will kill.

I’m betting she’ll Vogue – but will she “kiss and tell?”

I’m just saying. Make sure you watch The Late Late Show with James Corden Wednesday night.

Madonna Spends Thanksgiving With Homeless LGBT Teens

Outstanding.

The Queen of Pop herself, Madonna, spent her Thanksgiving with homeless LGBT youth of the Ali Forney Center in New York City.

The Ali Forney Center is the largest and most comprehensive organization in the nation dedicated to housing LGBT youth.

AFC serves youth aged 16-24, and provides emergency and transitional housing, street outreach, a drop-in center, medical and mental health treatment, a vocational/educational program, and a counseling project for the families of LGBT youth.

Earlier this year, I interviewed Carl Siciliano, founder and executive director of The Ali Forney Center. An awesome and inspiring man who walks the walk when it comes to helping people. Take a listen to my interview here.

Remix: Madonna “Vogue” Beauty Edition (Paul Andrews Mix)

Paul Andrews serves up the perfect Saturday afternoon chill remix of Madonna’s mega-hit “Vogue.” From Andrews:

“Beauty’s where you find it.” This song is truly a classic. I’ve always thought “Vogue” had the perfect combination of drive and elegance. When I approached this mix, I didn’t want to reinvent the song, just wanted to expand on the sophistication. This mix should sound familiar at first, but I hope it takes you to a new place.

Just add a cocktail, nice breeze and a little bounce of the head. https://youtu.be/G_AadRoWmI8 (h/t Boy Culture)
