Nothing Like The Real Thing

Not talking about a soda ad but rather an imitation of the Queen Of Pop.
OK OK Lets not get ahead of ourselves I'm not talking about GaGa either.
Instead I'm talking about the newly unveiled wax figure of none other than Madonna.
Yes Madame Tussaud's Las Vegas recently unveiled the iconic Super Bowl Madonna.



I'd have to say this is probably the best one in the lot of Madame Tussaud's as most M wax figure in the museum sucks.






But seriously my take on it is they could have made an effort in the details as the said wax figure is not as expensive looking as the real thing in terms of costume and accessories.



And definitely they will never capture the dazzling blue eyes of the Queen. But still a great job.


UPDATE:
Apparently a new wax figure for M. Tussaud's of London is in the works and from the looks of it,seems spot on.

LOVE SPENT

Been a fan since 1984, In all those years I had been collecting Madonna related stuff from Music CD's ,tapes,Vinyl records,DVD's,Laser Disc, Posters, books and lots and lots of magazines.Some I bought some given by dear friends aware of my addiction LOL.
I guess I have spent loads on the Queen But all in all its well worth it. I am particularly fond of the two SEX books I own. Of course I have all her studio albums. My only regret is that I threw away all of my albums in tape format.
LOVE Well SPENT actually......

SISTAH !!!





I like Beyonce, I think she's one of a few artists that offers a unique blend of talent beauty,smarts and originality. I have practically watched her blossom from a young girl member of a girl group to her current Megastar status.
I actually missed her and her music and I am hoping she would shake up things again in the near future with a new release but I guess being a Mom is her priority right now....

So while waiting for her to put out something I was pleasantly surprised when I chanced upon her sister Solange Knowles's new single. I was not expecting anything as I only remember Solange in one of her forgettable movie role. I think its one of the crappy sequel of BRING IT ON, not even sure if its the third or fourth installment.

Anyways enough of that I am simply loving Solange's new single "Losing You" . Its cool and infectious beats, the laid back sound which is so unlike her sisters style which I definitely appreciate as she can never compete with Bey.
The Sistah is in the house, Well my house for that matter as its on repeat play in my iPod. LUV it

THIRTY



Seems like yesterday but Madonna's debut single was released 30 years ago. Everybody was released in October 6,1982.The singles artwork does not include any image of the soon to be Queen of Pop thereby giving the impression that Madonna was a black artist from how the track sounded. In which later once the image was introduced and seen by the public there's no looking back.
Happy 30th Anniversary!!!
