Madonna recently received and accepted Billboard's Women in Music Woman of the Year award
But, like, she didn't just smile and wave like a *good* girl
She delivered an amazing speech about the sexism and double standards that she has faced over the course of her 34 years in music.
And, like, she didn't drop the mic [bc that's actually really, really bad for microphones and she probably knows that--don't ever drop a mic for real guys] but she may as well have.
Instead of writing my own super long blog post about it, I'm going to send you over to the THINX blog, because they wrote a long post about it.
And, as a bonus, here's a link the video of her speech so you can hear it for yourself; it's definitely worth it.
And I'm gonna leave you with one of my favorite songs by her:
And another, more recent song, featuring another great woman in music (this one's linked because I can't get it to embed from youtube)
