Rearing her head! Madonna emerges after Paris concert debacle... as spokeswoman calls show a 'heartfelt thank you to France

She has been keeping her head down following her much criticised 45 minute performance in Paris on Thursday.

And Madonna was finally seen emerging form her hotel in the French capital today looking very much down in the dumps.

The egotistical singer does not seem to have been very pleased at the fury unleashed her way following her appearance at the city's Olympia club.

In fact she looked like she had just sucked on a lemon as she marched out of the upmarket Ritz Hotel while surrounded by a team of minders.

She was accompanied by her daughter Lourdes, who also seemed far from excited to be sampling the charming French atmosphere.

Perhaps some of the fans who had paid £200 per head, with others paying many times that on the black market, will feel less angry after the Like A Prayer singer's spokeswoman Liz Rosenberg explained the show as a 'heartfelt thank you to France.'

However many may be even more infuriated after she said fans were to blame for not realising it was not billed as a full concert.

Miss Rosenberg told MTV: 'Despite a grueling concert tour, she desperately wanted to perform for her fans in an intimate setting at the historic Olympia as a means to honour her love for French artists, French cinema and a tribute to France's long history of welcoming and inspiring artists, authors, painters, poets and minorities from other countries over the years.

'The show was not billed as her full MDNA concert and tremendous effort was made to keep the ticket prices reasonable ($100/£63.50 for 2,000 floor seats) and keep them strictly for her fans.

'The show cost Madonna close to a million dollars to produce.

'She has done a handful of club dates in the past and they were never more than 45 minutes.

A thank you to France: But short changed fans would have rather had a refund after her show

'And by the way, she put on a fabulous show, which was streamed for millions of fans around the world.'

While she was on stage for 45 minutes, the Holiday star was attacked for only singing for around 30 minutes - and spending 15 minutes ‘wittering on about politics’.

When she left the stage, the curtains closed behind her with a message reading ‘I love you’.

But when she did not reappear for an encore, audience members began jeering, booing and pelting the stage with bottles.

Some shouted obscene slogans about there erstwhile idol, and many demanded a refund.

Madonna Started Filming The "Bedtime Story" Video on December 5 1994.

The inspiration behind the video. Hello everyone! This month’s music video to be analyzed is the for “Bedtime Story”, While this video is tricky for its various sources of inspiration, it’s one of her best, if not the best, and an underrated one by most fans. I am sure that, after reading all of this, you’ll find yourself more in love with the true artist Madonna really is. Madonna called upon “Rain” director Mark Romanek to do the music video for “Bedtime Story” after she saw what he had done with Nine Inch Nails’ “Closer”. As she always does, she listened to the song over and over again, trying to think of a concept for a video. The theme she held on to for this one was dreams, it’s meaning, concepts, imagery and works based on it. She’s a huge fan of surrealistic art, in which lots of paintings deal about dreaming, or allude to something unfathomable in real life. She held to that and brought that concept to Romanek, that really liked the idea and wanted to add ...

Rolling Stone - June 13, 1991 - Flesh and Fantasy - Big Time Girl Talk with Carrie Fisher

Madonna and I had met many times over the years, but we had never actually had a conversation. It took this interview to bring us together – she as icon, I as inquisitor of icon [after all, I have already distinguished myself as friend of icon, relative of icon and ex-wife of icon]. I had never done an interview before, and I don’t know that I will again. For me, this has all the makings of a waterloo. The first of the two sessions for this interview took place in the restaurant of the Four Seasons Hotel in Los Angeles. Madonna wore gold lame; I probably wore black. The last session took place in the offices of her manager, Freddy DeMann. Madonna wore a negligee; I probably wore black. I was late for that first meeting because a friend who had AIDS and who was staying with me had suddenly developed a fever. I called Madonna to say I was on my way. “You’re late,” she informed me. I explained about my friend. “Well, okay, that’s a good excuse,” she said. By the time of our fina...
