Saturday morning (12:00 AM to be exact) started with the "Madonnathon" coverage of MYX. It was a 24-hr event that featured only Madonna videos and interviews. This was the second time that MYX channel featured Madonna in a 24-hr basis. The first time being August 16, 2000 in the channel that was called Vid-Ok then. (However, there were already plans of merging with MYX sometime in the coming months of 2001.) I won the Madonna gift pack that time which consists of 14 CDs and VCDs! The question was "What movie used Live to Tell for its theme song?" The answer was Sean Penn's "At Close Range".
The funny thing about it was that I was also wondering about it for quite some time. I have asked some DJs over a radio station before but they don't have any idea, as well. (I have no access to the internet yet that time.) When the first Madonnathon was aired and Live to Tell was shown, I thought of searching for it on the net. Luckily, later that night, the question was asked.
Anyway, the whole week was quite a busy Madonna week! By Tuesday, iTunes started selling the last two remixes for the new single, Sorry. By Wednesday, the Paper Faces Remix of Let It Will Be surfaced on the net. By Thursday, at 1:55 AM, MYX premiered the new video for Sorry. A few hours later, copies of the said video surfaced on the net for downloads. Then at 9:00 AM, the 2006 Grammy Awards aired live over at Star World and Studio 23. Madonna opened the show with Gorillaz!
Sunday night was spent with the Megastar. It was the "Mega-Valentine" concert. Like any other Sharon concerts or shows, the best thing about it is how fun it is to watch Sharon! She is as bubbly as Julia Roberts. Although, she could also go overboard with it by talking too much. The concert could've been better if she had sung more of her own songs. Nevertheless, it is nice knowing that she is finally back after a few years of rest. I'm so looking forward to her new TV show on the 26th!
