Madonna has debuted her “Living For Love” music video. It features the pop star in a matador costume, surrounded by sexy minotaurs (or some kind of man-bull hybrid). There’s the slithering and grinding and gyrating you’ve come to expect in Madonna videos. Watch it below!
The video had originally premiered on Snapchat. Now it’s on YouTube, courtesy of Vevo. The bullfighting theme in the clip calls to mind Madonna’s 1990s video for “Take A Bow,” but is more intense, as signaled by the concluding Friedrich Nietzsche quote: “Man is the cruelest animal. At tragedies, bullfights and crucifixions he has felt best on earth; and when he invented hell for himself that was his very heaven.” That’s right. Come for the sexy masked and horned hunks. Stay for the Nietzsche.
Julien Choquart and Camille Hirigoyen (known as “J.A.C.K.”) directed the video. “Living For Love” is the first track from Madonna’s upcoming Rebel Heart album, and one of a number of songs that has been officially released following a December leak. Madonna is expected to perform at this weekend’s Grammy Awards. Gossip Cop will have full coverage. Until then, check out the “Living For Love” music video below, and tell us what you think.
