Madonna's 'Ghosttown' video premiered and people love it
We all know Madonna, queen of pop, has been under endless scrutiny for flaunting her sexuality at an old(er) age, a few mediocre performances in promotion of her newest studio album "Rebel Heart," and her decisions as of late as a mother and public figure. In fact, she recently spent an entire week on "The Ellen Degeneres Show" to promote the album, and got quite candid on what it's like living life as Madonna.
The pop icon took to new video streaming app, Meerkat, to drop the music video for "Ghosttown" and unlike the majority of her recent performances and attempts at making a statement, this one is actually quite good! The video is set to a post-apocolpytic scene (sans zombies) amongst barraged homes and dancing flames.
Terrence Howard from "Empire" makes a cameo and preys on a vulnerable Madonna wading through the 'ghosttown' until the two meet, and engage in a beautifully choreographed dance through the end of the sequence. It's a truly stunning visual and fans are generally impressed by it!
