Madonna, fresh off a surprise concert in Times Square last Thursday, has surprised fans yet again with another music video drop. In it, a dancing Madonna donned a bright blue latex dress as she was accompanied by several scantily-clad dancers.
The short film, entitled Confessions II, features the first six songs from Madonna’s coming album of the same name, which will be released on July 3. That project is billed as a sequel to Confessions on a Dance Floor (2005).
The film takes fans through several scenes while Madonna’s latest pop track plays in the background. These include an arena, a vehicle and a nightclub loo with heavily suggested substance use. There’s even a woodland setting, where emerald lasers beam from the hips of gyrating dancers.
Following the screening, Madonna quipped during a Q&A with Anderson Cooper that she fancied testing the lasers, “but apparently they get quite hot.”
The 10-minute production is packed with celebrity appearances and hidden references, with fans encouraged multiple viewings to spot them all.
Benedict Cumberbatch, Kate Moss and Debi Mazar all feature, alongside Julia Garner, who’s been chosen to portray Madonna in an upcoming biographical film.
Perhaps surprisingly, footballer Cole Palmer could be seen in the bathroom, turning to his head to camera while using a urinal.
Sabrina Carpenter joins the pop icon to deliver their collaboration, Bring Your Love, on a dance floor, while Madonna’s daughter Lourdes Leon portrays a camera-wielding seductress.
