Madonna une a Beyoncé, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus y Jon Kortajarena en su vídeo

Confirmando el rumor que ella misma había lanzado en Instagram, Madonna ha estrenado su videoclip 'Bitch, I'm Madonna', en el que ha hecho una declaración de poder al contar con cameos de Beyoncé, Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry, Kanye West, Nicki Minaj, Jon Kortajarena, Rita Ora o el diseñador Alexander Wang.

Para el tercer sencillo de su último disco 'Rebel Heart', Madonna ha rodado un vídeo en el hotel neoyorquino Standard, en el Meat Packing District, y en él ha recreado una atmósfera de fiesta teñida de colores chillones y "looks" barriobajeros firmados por Moschino y Chanel.
Con una coreografía coral que ya exhibió cuando interpretó esta misma canción en el programa de Jimmy Fallon y rodado en secuencias largas que siguen a Madonna por los pasillos y salas de fiesta del hotel, el vídeo cuenta además con el productor Diplo, con Chris Rock y con los dos hijos varones de Madonna, Rocco y David.
'Bitch, I'm Madonna' es un tema dance con la voz de la cantante prácticamente irreconocible por los efectos de sonido y su vídeo ha sido estrenado en exclusiva en la plataforma de música Tidal, creada por Jay Z, apadrinada por Madonna y apodada el "Spotify de los ricos".

Madonna recupera el sentido del humor y el tono adolescente en esta pieza, tras la solemnidad torera de 'Living for Love' y la épica apocalíptica de 'Ghosttown', los otros dos sencillos de 'Rebel Heart'.
También intentará retomar el éxito de ventas que le ha sido negado en el lanzamiento de este disco, que desde el principio ha estado atravesado por las adversidades, las filtraciones y una escasa notoriedad inédita en su carrera.
Dirigido por uno de los genios de cabecera de la artista Jonas Akerlund, 'Bitch, I'm Madonna' ha sido interpretado por muchos como una respuesta al 'Bad Blood', de Taylor Swift, que contó con Selena Gómez, Lena Dunham, Cara Delevingne y que, supuestamente, era un mensaje envenenado para su enemiga en el reino del pop, Katy Perry.
Sin embargo, Madonna no ha conseguido que su red de contactos coincidiera en el mismo plano, sino que Beyoncé, Perry o Cyrus aparecen en forma de extractos pregrabados y Nicki Minaj lo hace en una pantalla de plasma.

“Bitch I’m Madonna” Video


Madonna is premiering the music video for “Bitch I’m Madonna” today on Tidal. The video, the third from her critically acclaimed 13th studio album REBEL HEART, is available to view exclusively by Tidal subscribers for 24 hours. Following its premiere on Tidal, the video will be available on Madonna’s VEVO page. 

Featuring guest stars: Beyoncé, Miley Cyrus, Diplo, Nicki Minaj, Katy Perry, Rita Ora, Chris Rock and Kanye West along with fashion designer Alexander Wang and Madonna’s sons Rocco and David, the “Bitch I’m Madonna” video was shot on the 17th floor at Andre Balasz’s Standard Highline hotel and in its clubs the Boom Boom Room and Le Bain.

Jonas Åkerlund, who has directed several of Madonna’s videos including the already classic and current “Ghosttown”, “Music” and “Ray of Light”, directed the video. It was styled by Arianne Phillips who is one of Madonna’s longtime stylists and was the costume designer on Madonna’s film W.E. as well as last five Madonna Tours.

Jonas Akerlund Shares Behind the Scenes Details of “Bitch I’m Madonna”

Anytime Madonna announces a new video, it’s a global event. And it’s no different with her newest clip for her thumping single “Bitch I’m Madonna,” which debuted online on Wednesday. In fact, it’s the Queen of Pop’s most bonkers video in years—and features a who’s-who of all-stars like Beyonce, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, Nicki Minaj, Rita Ora, Chris Rock, and others. 

For such an occasion, Madonna teamed up once again with one of her most trusted collaborators, director Jonas Akerlund. Over the last 17 years, the two have worked on some of her most iconic visuals, from 1998’s Grammy-winning “Ray of Light” to April’s dramatic, post-apocalyptic “Ghosttown,” co-starring Terrence Howard.

So how did the two pull off such a feat with “Bitch I’m Madonna”? And what was it like juggling the schedules of M, her guest stars, and a crew of around 100 people? Akerlund shares behind-the-scenes details on making the video with EW.

On Coming Up With the Concept

“Madonna called me about ‘Ghosttown.’ We hadn’t worked for a while because of different circumstances so when I heard all the songs [on Rebel Heart], I was very excited about ‘Ghosttown.’ I connected to it creatively. And, yeah, we enjoyed working together. I was supposed to start something else right after and that got pushed and she asked me to do ‘Bitch I’m Madonna.’ I saw it being so completely different from ‘Ghosttown,’ something a little bit less serious, just fun and crazy.”

On Preparing for the Shoot
“It became almost mathematic figuring out how to shoot it. We had a detailed shotlist. We also rehearsed, which is rare for a music video.”

On Filming Over One Night in New York City
“It’s always a challenge. Madonna is a celebrity enough for any music video. But with the nature of the song and the playfulness of it, we thought, ‘Let’s have some friends and family and go crazy with it!’ Everyone was spread out and their time is tight, but the good news is we all love Madonna and everyone wants to be involved. That made it really fun and playful.”

On Fighting Against Daylight
“On film shoots, you normally fight against losing daylight, but on this job we were fighting against the sun coming up. But you do see parts of it at the end, the sun on it’s way up.”

On Downtime on Set
“It was fun! That’s the only way to do it really. But it was technical. Everybody needed to be on their place and do their job. Everyone had cues and everyone was ready. And when we left the shoot, we thought, ‘If the video feels half as good as we feel, then it’s a homerun.’”

On Why He Loves Working With Madonna
“We’ve built trust between us through the years and she’s one of those people who really gets the best out of you. She wants to do something great. Every time we do videos, we want to change the world. A lot of artists don’t do that, but she does. She has that extra thing that makes her job worth it.”
