Madonna, is that you?

About Alejandro, Lady Gaga's latest video: do you see a lot of the 90's Madonna or is it just me?

To name some references: 

- Madonna's Like a Virgin bed performance on her Blonde Ambition Tour 

- Like a Prayer's religious outfit

- Vogue choreography (4:22)

- S&M look

- La Isla Bonita for the Spanish accent

- At the beginning it looks a bit like the Frozen videoclip

- And Gaga herself resembles so much of Madonna sometimes! Check time 5:20

I hope these obvious references are an homage to Madonna and not just plain imitation...

Puma's clever little bag

I love when I stumble upon ideas I wish I have had. It usually happens with the most simple ones - these small shifts that don't seem that significant at the time but can cause change in a huge scale when you think of them in long term basis.

This is one of those ideas.

Sex and the City 2 - You really got me now

I HATED the first trailer, thought the film would be totally meaningless - just one of those awful continuations of a story that hasn't got anything else to tell. But this trailer here just changed it all... Carrie meeting Aidan in Abu Dhabi in a girls' trip after marrying Big? That's something I REALLY wanna see.  And yes, I am in fact a very silly girl :)

Remember Me

Today I watched Robert Pattinson's 'Remember Me'. It made me cry.

Telephone - Gaga's new video feat. Beyoncé

On the Video Phone clip, Gaga looks like a little girl trying to shake it lika mama Beyoncé. I actually felt sorry for Gaga for the first time because she really disappears wearing those tight clothes and shaking by Beyoncé's side. BUT OF COURSE, we couldn't expect less from Gaga: she has just launched a videoclip for a song called Telephone, featuring Beyoncé... and it's all about Gaga.

But Video Phone, Beyoncé feat. Gaga, then Telephone, Gaga feat. Beyoncé? Is it a competition? Anyway, this clip is more like a movie, with Lady Gaga on the main role and Beyoncé as an accessory. Both of them look amazing, but the video clearly has Gaga's aesthetics and she's the one you can't take your eyes off. Amazing coreographies, cool looks, great makes, in short, stunning aesthetics. Well, that's Gaga... nevermind the song.

So here's the new video, a bit long (9:32) but REALLY worth it.

And this is Beyoncé's Video Phone, just for comparison :)

The Secret In Their Eyes

This Argentinian film originally called "El Secreto de Sus Ojos" just got the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film and it's easily the best film I've seen latey. It's real food-for-thought: a very well-written plot involving crime, investigation, justice, politics, psychology, obsession, and of course, love and passion. The characters are really complex and count with great actors such as Ricardo Darin, who wows everytime. It's definitely a must-see.

I found this trailer with unnofficial English subtitles (yet perfectly understandable) on YouTube:

This Too Shall Pass

OK Go's new video - on YouTube since yesterday:



But this one is unbeatable:



CLASSIC!
