Madonna's corset looked wildly uncomfortable, so I'm glad she acknowledged that.

LOL that Sir Ian McKellan got a bigger response than Madonna. As it should be.

Honestly? I thought Madonna seemed downright nervous,  ill at ease, overwhelmed by the experience. And a lot of her try-hard behavior struck me as compensating for that. 

I couldn't believe she never sat in the outfit before wearing it on INTERNATIONAL TV.  Seriously.  I didn't think it looked that good standing u, but it was ridiculous sitting down.

I think she was intimidated a bit by Sir Ian, once she started to realize how awesome he is.  But she clearly had no idea who any of the other guests were and didn't care.  Her discussion about not having an OBE--she's not a British citizen!

Ian McKellan is a joy.  I really want to see “Yesterday”, and Himesh Patel has a lovely voice.

Ian McKellan is always a joy.  I loved how he was celebrating being 80, especially in contrast to Madonna's desperation not to be "old".

I do think the movie sounds good, although I was disappointed to have the young Mr. Patel say he had to learn the songs--I'm not of the age to have listened to them "live" but my parents played them, and I know almost all their songs--I wish he could have said he learned none, since he already knew them.  Oh well.
