Aug 28, 2003 // It’s Been 14 Years Since Britney Spears Kissed Madonna At The VMAs It feels like just yesterday.

The day was August 28, 2003. The place was Radio City Music Hall.

From the top of a cake emerged a vision of beauty who radiated as if sent from above.

She looked like unto an angel, but neigh, it was not an angel, it was her majesty, Britney Spears, Princess of Pop.

She sang the hymn “Like A Virgin.”

And she posed and sighed and cooed and generally looked flaw free and iconic.

In the audience, a fan clapped to the beat and looked on in anticipation of what was to come.

And, lo, from behind the cake strode another figure.

Though she shown not as brightly, her voice shook all those who heard it. And she lifted her veil, and lo, it was Christina “Xtina” Aguilera.

And everyone was all like

But then from the heavens cried with the sound of a million church bells, heralding the arrival of the godmother.

She had arrived. Her royal highness, Madonna, the Queen of Pop.

She walked down the stairs gracefully.

The torch had been passed. Madonna’s work here was done. It was the next generation’s turn to bless the world with pop music.

I am sure that, after reading all of this, you’ll find yourself more in love with the true artist Madonna really is.

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.
