‘Lil Nas X: Long Live Montero’ Creates Space for Greatness Without Filling It
Lil Nas X: Long Live Montero, the artist known as Lil Nas X lays down his ambitions to achieve something “great, super grand, BIG.”He might be referring to his trailblazing career as a Grammy-winning rapper-singer-songwriter, whose unabashedly queer persona and presentation garner admiration and controversy in equal measure.He could mean his first concert tour as a headliner, the Long Live Montero Tour, the American leg of which is chronicled in this film by directors Carlos López Estrada and Zac Manuel.There’s little doubt he envisions greatness for himself, Montero Hill, the self-described brat from Lithia Springs, Georgia, who uploaded his modest country-rap banger “Old Town Road” to his socials and became a global sensation.The film, a verité-style tour diary in three acts, doesn’t achieve greatness of its own, but offers glimpses at those aforementioned aspects of Montero’s super grand life.Whether rehearsing for opening night at Detroit’s legendary Fox Theatre, getting a surprise pre-show visit from Madonna, or donning his drag persona to meet his uncannily accurate Madame Tussaud’s wax figure, he rides the dizzying whirlwind of music stardom with aplomb, clearly living out a dream.Among the most compelling footage presented here is the video he shot himself in 2018, as a striving but confident 19-year-old, a month after releasing “Old Town Road” to the internet. Looking into the camera, he tallies his current follower count, promising that in a year the count will look different.

Fans sue Madonna over delayed concert times because they had to “get up early to go to work”
Madonna is facing a class action lawsuit filed by two fans after her December concerts in New York City’s Barclays Center began “over two hours” later than scheduled.On Wednesday (January 17), two ticket buyers, Michael Fellows and Jonathan Hadden filed a complaint alleging that the singer had breached her contract with attendees and violated New York state laws by beginning her concert on December 13 at 10:30PM rather than the stipulated 8:30PM timing.In the introduction of the lawsuit, which was first shared by Billboard, Fellows’ and Hadden’s attorneys wrote that “defendants’ actions constitute not just a breach of their contracts with Plaintiffs and Class Members, but also a wanton exercise in false advertising, negligent representation, and unfair and deceptive trade practices.” The full document can be read here.Extending the accusations to Madonna’s concerts at the same venue on December 14 and 16 – which allegedly also began “over two hours late” – the attorneys claim that the concerts’ stipulated 8:30PM start time as represented on the tickets was “material to Plaintiffs’ agreement to purchase the tickets”, and that Madonna’s failure to satisfy the expectations of an 8:30PM start time caused legal damage to concertgoers who “had to get up early to go to work and/or take care of their family responsibilities the next day”.In addition, the attorneys claimed that the concerts’ 1AM conclusion resulted in ticket holders being faced with “limited public transportation, limited ride-sharing, and/or increased public and private transportation costs”, adding that a number were left “stranded in the middle of the night”.On the violation of New York state laws, the attorneys invoked the state’s General Business Law 149,

Fans defend Madonna after “ageist” trolls incorrectly mock her for using support beam at show
Madonna fans have defended the star from “ageist” trolls who incorrectly mocked her for using a support beam at a live show.The singer kicked off the US leg of her ‘Celebration’ world tour last month, and a video was shared on TikTok of her dancing while holding a pole behind her.In the comments of the video, some suggested that she was using it as a support beam to help her to stand.“I’m glad to see that Madonna has a grab bar so she doesn’t fall,” one said of the video, while another added: “65-year-old Madonna has to use a bar to dance on stage to prop herself up as she performs a dance routine.”65 year old Madonna has to use a bar to dance on stage to prop herself up as she performs a dance routine. pic.twitter.com/p75zDZq3LO— Oli London (@OliLondonTV) January 4, 2024Madonna fans have then since defended the singer from the trolls, with one saying: “Dumb a**es got jokes, but failed to mention the fact that she’s dancing on a MOVING PLATFORM,” and calling out the “ageist” comments.Another said: “She is on a thin platform that is moving across the top of the audience! Of course there’s a bar! She’s also clipped onto it!”Reviewing her tour’s opening show at The O2 in London, NME awarded it five stars and said: “The whole thing is a thrilling reminder that Madonna isn’t just a pop star, but also a cultural force who genuinely changed the world by chafing against what society expects from women in the public eye.“That’s something worth celebrating in the dazzling, dynamic and at times slightly discombobulating way she presents it here.
