Madonna is hoping that President Donald Trump's election will "bring people together"

Madonna hopes Donald Trump's election will "bring people together".
The Rebel Heart hitmaker - who was a vocal supporter of the President-elect's rival Hillary Clinton - thinks the former 'Apprentice' star's appointment as commander-in-chief is a sign that US citizens have grown too complacent about their "freedom" and is hoping political changes will bring about wider change.
Speaking on a panel l at the Brooklyn Talks at the Brooklyn Museum of Art on Thursday, she said: "It had to happen. I do believe that Trump was elected for a reason; to show us how lazy and ununified and lackadaisical we've become about our freedom.

"They say it's always darkest before the dawn. I feel like it had to happen to bring people together. Let's get the party started!"
And the 58-year-old singer thinks Trump, 70, is doing the US a "great service" in being the next president and urged people to follow her in using his appointment to make progress, rather than opt for "destruction".
She said: "We've gone as low as we can go. We can only go up from here.
"We have two choices: destruction and creation. I'm going down the road of creation and you are all welcome to join me.
"I'm going to slap any man who doesn't say they're a feminist."
Elsewhere during the evening, the 'Vogue' hitmaker dismissed constant "absurd" rumours of a feud between her and Lady Gaga.
She joked: "I've been supposedly in a fight with Lady Gaga since she was born. It's absurd. My biggest naysayers have been women."
Madonna recently admitted the election results left her with a broken heart.
She said: "I went to sleep and since that night, I wake up every morning and it's like when you break up with somebody who has really broken your heart. You wake up and for a second you're just you, and then you go, 'Oh, the person I love more than anything has just broken my heart, and I'm devastated and I'm broken and I have nothing. I'm lost.' "

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 ...
