Category is: Pop diva ball gown eleganza for your nerves!
Sam Smith and Madonna have bonded over their shared histories of making headlines for challenging norms, getting right-wing nutjobs heads to explode, and wearing whatever the hell they want. And now, based on their recent sartorial choices, it looks like the pair are starting to dress alike too.
Subscribe to our newsletter for a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
The stage spectacular finds the “Vogue” singer decked out in a myriad of high-fashion outfits, including a flowing black kimono by Eyob Yohannes which the Queen of Pop accessorizes with lace gloves and a dazzling halo headpiece by House of Malakai.
The throne has been secured!
Two months later, Smith–like every pop star since 1983–took inspiration from Madonna and turned up to the London Fashion Awards in a voluminous black taffeta gown replete with a flowing train and an equally grandiose matching tulle stole.
To quote one of the 31-year-old’s lyrics: “All black in stripper heels, mood like Madonna!”
After much deliberation, the verdict is in!
While both murdered their lewks, there’s only one Queen and that’s Madonna! 👑
Earlier this year, the duo channeled their fierce energies musically into the bombastic club bop “Vulgar.” At one point during the tight track’s 150 seconds, Sam and Madge come together and sing: “We’re sexy and free and we feel, vulgar.”
“I wish I could have a story like, ‘She spat in my face and called me a bitch’.”

Liberace seemed too well-adjusted to fall for these insecure labels. He made a point to say, “Don’t pretend to be someone else; be yourself” when criticizing impersonators.
Why is everytime this site does an article involving Sam it’s always meet with vitriol & down nasty put downs, literally do better in life instead going after someone living their truth..
I would love to see what ya’ll look like, where you live, what you drive, what you do for a living and what really you have to offer the World besides being pissy and miserable.
I have found that those who talk the most shit about others usually lack just about anything that would make them worth knowing IRL.
So gay men who find a fat repulsive clown in semi-drag to be unattractive are necessarily miserable?
Well Mary, you can get down on your knees and service Mx. They/Them all you want. If I were young and in the market for androgyny, I’d prefer someone talented and elegant like Timothée Chalamet or that sexy nutcase Ezra Miller.
You judgmental queens who think that everyone who fails to parrot some official queer opinion must either be miserable or a “hater” are so tiresome. You really don’t deserve to be gay. Southern Baptist would better suit your disposition.
Inbama, timothee chalamet comparison is such out there for many reasons because one thing he’s not even an singer plus Sam already has an Oscar over him, so there you go..
Carole wrote ”Pocket Money” for a Paul Newman film of the same name. It’s really a very sweet song but the film went no where. They were tight friends for the rest of his life. The song is very sweet.
She also wrote ”Now and Forever” for A League of Thier Own and we all know how well that film did. Carole was also very close with Penny Marshall.
And “Here I Am (Singing My Way Home)” (with Jennifer Hudson and Jamie Hartman) for ”Respect”.
King also penned and performed ”Anyone At All” for ”You’ve Got Mail”.
CK also wrote the music and recorded the soundtrack to a short animated film by Maurice Sendak called ”Really Rosie”. I can safely say that I’ve played that album more times than Tapestry because it is that damn good. Every child (and adult) needs this album.
@Stefano, Weren’t you just bitchin in another thread about how “mean comments” make you not proud to be gay? Lol Yet here you are adding to that mentality. As annoying as Sam Smith can be, I’d take him over a creep like you any day of the week.
@dbmcvey : I know you don’t want to go out with him. He’s talented, of course. But to pretend that his looks are gorgeous and that he’s handsome like some of the comments here is ridiculous. He has no beautiful eyes, no beautiful mouth and no sex appeal. I’m honest. That’s all. Yes you are right, he triggers some people but not the way you think.
I personally don’t find them “gorgeous” but if people do I certainly won’t say they’re wrong. I have crushes on several men that are not considered objectively attractive.
I find Sam extremely talented, and his music very sexy and provocative. But if he were just some anonymous rando I encountered in a bar, I would think, “He’s got a beard and a ‘bear body’ – and he’s dressing like he thinks he’s Adele. He’d be much more attractive if he dressed to flatter his actual appearance….”
WRT Madonna, she’s hellbent on maintaining her status as a pop beauty by using every trick in the book: art direction, fashion, makeup, exercise, nutrition, surgery, fillers, photoshop, lighting and theatre. Considering her age and despite a few mishaps, her efforts appear to be working rather well…
It’s obvious he’s doing it to provoke. It worked very well with Madonna. Now, on the other hand, everyone knows the recipe (it’s been used many times). I hope he moves on. I’m sure there are dresses that would look better on him. A good dress advisor, perhaps?

Sam looks like a pig in a blanket.
greekboy
HA! HA! HA!
abfab
Yes, it’s hysterical.
nm4047
lots of black material sacrificed to cover Smith. The unfortunate part of it. The outfit will be all that’s remembered not his(?) music.
GameBoy
That’s literally not true given their numerous hits & albums.
inbama
I guess if Liberace were alive today and under 30, he’d be calling himself nonbinary and using they/them pronouns like Sam.
It must have been painful for him and other ultra-effeminate gay men to have existed before all these identities and neo-pronouns existed.

If that’s what gets you hot, go for it.

Sam Smith is so hot!!
Stefano
It’s the story of a guy copying an old icon reworked by scalpels.
abfab
You’re cringy. And boring. We get it. You don’t like the person.
FreddieW
With that red hair and beard, he’d make a fine looking man. Unfortunate that he wants to look like something weird instead.
monty clift
He needs an honest, good friend.
LegionKeign
Ah, I see all the haters are here.
I would love to see what ya’ll look like, where you live, what you drive, what you do for a living and what really you have to offer the World besides being pissy and miserable.
I have found that those who talk the most shit about others usually lack just about anything that would make them worth knowing IRL.
Goddess Bless.

Inbama, timothee chalamet comparison is such out there for many reasons because one thing he’s not even an singer plus Sam already has an Oscar over him, so there you go..
inbama
So winning a Best Song Oscar is the measure of a musician?
I guess Alan Menken is the greatest composer of all time then.
Sorry Bob Dylan, George Gershwin, Paul McCartney, Steven Sondheim, Carole King…
dbmcvey
@inbama
What a silly statement. Also, Bob Dylan and Stephen Sondheim both won Oscars.
abfab
And Carole did not.
dbmcvey
Has Carole King ever written a song for a movie? I know her songs get used but I can’t think of anything she wrote for film.
abfab
Carole wrote ”Pocket Money” for a Paul Newman film of the same name. It’s really a very sweet song but the film went no where. They were tight friends for the rest of his life. The song is very sweet.

Fascinating the way Sam Smith triggers some people.
Stefano
You’re free to like a whale in a party dress, but personally I find him disgusting.
dbmcvey
He’s a great singer and I like his music. I’m not looking to date him.
dbmcvey
oops, them.
GameBoy
Wearing an dress doesn’t make one anyone disgusting.
