Favourite Madonna memory: The Celebration Tour opening in London. I always dreamed of attending the opening show. This tour opening was mindblowing! The excitement of what to expect, or which songs she’s gonna sing. An indescribable feeling. I mean….when she entered the stage with Nothing Really Matters… It was like seeing an angel straight from paradise.
Favourite live moment: The curfew in London on Feb 5th during her Madame X show at The Palladium. When she came back on stage to finish I Rise. The dancer grabbing my MX rainbow flag. M so close in front of us.
Favourite live show: The Celebration show on World Aids Day in my hometown Amsterdam. The energy was electrifying. Cried my eyes out during her 10-minute speech after Mother and Father.

Favourite MadonnaUnderground memory: Difficult to choose. Interviewing Tracy Young in Paris shortly after receivinig a Grammy for her “I Rise” remix. I also really enjoyed interviewing Rafe Gomez about his experiences in the early 80s at Danceteria. Really felt like I was in that club for a moment, dancing my booty off to “Everybody.”
