In case you wonder why there are so many footballers in Madonna new video ‘Gimme All Your Luvin”, Madonna is performing during the half time show at this year’s Super Bowl today and about 19.8 million watched it last year. MIA and Nicki Minaj will also be performing.
I quite like this song and can imagine listening to it while on the treadmill. I’ve had several friends complain about Madonna being too retouched but it’s not a makeup commericial and it does have a tongue in cheek feel to it plus the whole video has that soft focus slick feel. I love the styling; Madonna looks great in the hot pants and leather jacket and her blond Marilyn Monroe hair is reminiscent of her 1986/1987 style.
Love her! Lana Del Rey’s new single "Born To Die" will be released on Sunday 23rd January but you can see the video already! Her album, also titled "Born To Die" will be released a week later on Monday January 30th. It’s interesting to see how her style is evolving and we can expect to see her in quite a few appearences over the next few months. Look out for her on Saturday Night Live January 14th!
The Subways have been on tour for several weeks and they played in London at Koko. I saw them play there several years ago when I first met them. It’s such an iconic venue and tonight was an iconic performance, every song is like an anthem and the fans go wild! I hadn’t seen Charlotte, Billy or Josh since our shoot about a month ago as they’ve been touring the UK so it was good to have a quick catch up before their performance!
We were watching from the Royal Box above the first balcony, and got a great chance to video Billy Lunn doing a stage dive right off the balcony! Watching the mosh pit from above was a great experience and total highlight of the evening. It was amazing how all the fans were jumping around in a random yet organized way like some seething organism and they were crowd surfing and roughing each other up (almost getting into fights!) while also singing every lyric to every song! True fans!
Today I did a shoot with The Subways, which went great but the best part was they autographed a banana! Their new album ‘Money and Celebrity’ is out on September 18th. It’s produced by Stephen Street (Blur, The Smiths)
