Billboard awards announce Madonna to honour Prince

I am fuming. Someone just sent me the news about Billboard awards and out of tune ratchet Madonna doing Princes tribute. Of ALL the great real musicians and performers? They got to be kidding me. This is some bullshit.
Genius is born, not made. Prince is a Genius. No question. RIP Legend.

As long as its better than Lady Gaga's tribute to Bowie (as much as I appreciate Gaga's talent, it just didn't do Bowie ANY semblance of justice) I'll be happy.

Change it one more time..

It is a perfect choice. She was the perfect choice for MJ,d too. The three of them ruled the 80s, all were born within weeks or months of each other, and one greatly influenced the other. It was a healthy competition among all.

The ill sentiments aren't necessary. We're mourning the greatest musician and songwriter in history. It's not about musicianship or record sales - it's about the man who left too damn soon.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

I dislike Gaga and everything about her, and her using the LGBTQA community to get record sales, and be some false beacon of support. That Bowie "tribute" (I use the word loosely) was rushed, and more about Gaga dressing up like Bowie, than Bowie's genius.

I'm hoping she will talk a little about her experience at Paisley Park last October.

I agree whole heartedly. she's dreadful in every single sense.

worst thing about gaga, besides what you wrote, is that she goes on about "Being yourself" no matter what, then she disapears for 2 years and comes back with a new face. Check the nose/cheek bones/lips.. nasty little megalomaniac.

She will Do it, and she will do it with Class. She is the only one left. There is no one else. She may be next. I saw her in Portland October 2015 Rebel Heart Tour show and she said to us during the show that it could all end in a heartbeat. That she doesn't take our love for granted. She was talking about herself. But I should of thought more. She was talking to her fans in the audience. I feel like my life should be ending. I would have died for prince to be with MJ in heaven just so prince fans would not have to be suffering now, including me...immensley. They took both my black american music idols away from me too soon. I can't bear this burdon and I fear the same way. This world is nothing to me now. Is Madonna next? And why is it the Black ones going? MJ Whitney Prince.....

It makes me sick. Black Lives Matter Damn it! I am just rambling thoughts in this post. It just my feelings into words. But yes, Madonna will do her best. I read about the appearance at Paisley Park right before I saw the Canada Vancouver BC and Portland Oregon shows in October 2015 and I was pissed that I didnt fly to MPLS. It was my last chance to see them together at least. I happy at least she saw him one last time. I wonder If they talked much. I wonder if he knew and what he told her.

I know one thing, she will tell the TRUTH! That's what she did for MJ! Don't Let go of my hand!

I'm sure that these people will do their own tribute,at another event.Let's be honest....for the Billboard Awards,they need a *major* superstar and Madonna is the ultimate iconic superstar.She's one of the last few left.
