I also think the Jayne persona lacks all joy - her schtick is calculated and measured and dry-as-sand. She's no happy (public) vulgarian, glorying in boundary-breaking (frex Mae West) she's a sad little mouse of a thing desperate for attention. And her "act" lacks any mental energy (which this kind of performance needs, imo, to not feel like a late afternoon shift at Scores). She's all tit, no wit.

Although, dance talent wise she probably surpasses Erika because Madonna got a scholarship for the University of Michigan dance program. What Madonna has all over Erika is hard work, ambition, and style (specifically the ability to impressed enough with others to allow them to influence her in some way). Erika has completely allowed Mikey to dictate her style because it's kind of clear there is nothing really there motivating her style choices. Also Madonna would never have sat around until the rich dick she was hooked up with finally decided it was cool for her to have a career. I'm trying to think of who Erika is comparable to.

Tom isn't the greatest legal mind of his generation. Nor is he thought to be a silver tongued litigator without compare. He's hardworking and successful. Carlos wasn't doing anything of real note before Madonna. Carlos Leon was a trainer of no real note and a wannabe actor when he hooked up with Madonna. Afterwards, he's been able to carve out a decent little acting career and raise his profile as a trainer. I don't know if it's because of his raised profile from being with Madonna, any maintenance or child support money she's given him that have allowed him to pursue acting, use of Madonna's connections, or if she's called in some favors, but his acting career took off after they got together.

zoeysmom February 2, 2018 Share February 2, 2018 I think Erika is far more realistic about her career, how she got there and how it she keeps it going than a lot of her fans. Most people have never heard of Erika Jayne and her eight number one hits until RHOBH. She takes pretty much anything that comes down the pike and seems to have developed a sense a humor about her persona and humble beginnings. Now if her fans could just get a grip. I was watching CBS Sunday Morning this week and they did a segment on Marilyn Maye. I thought how great she is still performing at 90 years old and she can really sing-not Erika Jayne sing but sing. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/marilyn-maye-proudly-old-school/ I think as long as Erika enjoys entertaining she will have an audience.
