Kurt Glee Rewatch: The Power of Madonna
I know it’s not a major Kurt ep, but I just love him and Mercedes here omg. Lowkey one of my fav Glee songs...
Tumblr media
Lowkey the first time is hype about the assignment and Will didn’t even come up with it... classic.
Also I need to convey how much I love his hoodie (esp with the hat, prob so hood doesn’t fall down). I wish we got to see it again! Kurt has some pieces he wears a lot (black boots, white pants, this grey shirt w a white collar), but then there are outfits that appear once and then... never again.
Tumblr media
Love that he dances along, the only one truly appreciating the performance. This is why Kurt hangs out with the girls, gosh. Like dudes, even with your prejudice, can’t you appreciate an absolute bop???
But also bc Kurt in same hoodie... this is the same day. When did the girls do the costume change and practice? I love glee logic lol.
Tumblr media
Another great look, lowkey love him in turtlenecks. And I love Kurtcedes s1! Do we ever see Kurt do film ever again? Bc this talent came outta nowhere? I guess there’s sorta the music video at Vogue when he gives Rachel a makeover? Would be fun if we saw more of it.
And yay, the start of Kurt and Sue’s super weird friendship. I find it sweet that even after everything, Kurtcedes still has sympathy for her. Even though she then goes to throw students around... and Kurtcedes is unfazed... what is this school.
Tumblr media
He’s so hurt that Sue couldn’t keep up with fashion trends... a true travesty.
“Mercedes is black, I’m gay. We make culture” I love it.
I legit love the Kurt and Sue dynamic. I’m sure part of this was them wanting the Cheerios for their video, but he also wants to help. I think Kurt respects Sue, but doesn’t agree with her methods. And he def sees the humanity in her, here and in Funeral. 
And Sue def has sympathy for Kurt and I think she does respect him on some level. He has that more snarky side and like. He also has no affection for Schue. 
Tumblr media
First off, Chris Colfer looks so good in vintage style/black and white. You can often see Kurt’s influence of old Hollywood and it just fits. It’s why I get so annoyed when there are jokes/comments of Kurt wearing ridiculous/girly stuff bc it seems like the other characters treat him like a more camp-y gay and that’s not really his style? He’s so into fashion and he prefers a more sophisticated look.
But anyway, I’m so curious about the behind the scenes of this vid. I’m assuming Sue paid for it bc it looks v extra. But also just... how they styled everything etc. I can’t imagine that Sue is easy to work with.
Tumblr media
Ooh, another vintage-y look. Very detective-vibes.
Also, even tho the Kurt-Sue friendship is starting, she still keeps him on the list she gives to Figgins lol. She wants all them glee kids gone. Or maybe she thinks that Kurt would actually mange to make it in a new city with 5 bucks lol.
And then.... then we get... Cheerio!Kurt!!!
Tumblr media
First I need to point out a rare Quinn/Kurt interaction! And if you watch them in the background, you can see Kurt (but really Chris tbh) playing with the hat, puts it on Quinn’s head for a second. I love it. Wish we had more of them in canon.
Tumblr media
I will gush forever about cheerio!Kurt. I loved football!Kurt too and wish we got more eps, but omg him as a cheerio is everything. I’m happy he was a cheerio for a while (tho I wish we got to see another performance, esp the Celine Dion medley). ANd omg why wasn’t he on the team longer?? I guess tricky s2 with his transfer, but s3?? When he needs stuff for his application? And ugh, I just wanted more.
And I’m so happy he and Mercedes joined bc they prob felt so useless in glee. At least Mercedes gets some of the belt-notes? But Kurt is just background. This is his first song since Wheels (second in the season) and he’s already improved so much? I love when they let him sing in his lower tones, he sounds so good. And he’s such a performer, all the energy.
I wish we got more Kurtcedes duets. I just... they’re so great. And the only other one is in s5 and tbh not a fan of that one. This is just.. I love it! Esp as Mercedes’ voice is amazing, but in Glee they don’t always have her perform so much? Like, she had Bust Your WIndows but after that they have her as the ‘park and bark’ character? But pair her with Kurt, who was a born performer, and it’s amazing. Plus their chemistry, and they hype each other up, it’s so great.
Esp compared to Wheels! And his audition! That awk kid standing still and singing? Gone. He’s having so much fun and you can see that here is where he is truly confident as a performer. And this song is just so fun, esp with everyone’s reactions in the crowd (I love how happy Quinn is for them).
Tbh Will has no reason to be mad. He has other cheerios in glee. And they aren’t leaving the club. Plus, even after they do this and have repeatedly voiced their opinions on wanting to perform, he still never gives them a real chance to perform. I just- Ugh he angers me so much.
Tumblr media
Part of me just has this pic bc I love his outfit here (and we never see it again).
Love that he’s included in this, even tho he hasn’t been doing much sexist stuff? But hey, why miss out on chance to sing Madonna? And he can speak out as the ‘honorary girl’ and call out the others. Love that he makes sure Will admits his faults lol
Tumblr media
No but they’re so cute, honestly. 
Yay, Kurt got a line here. They had him do that higher register tho, which isn’t as refined... but at least it’s something
Not gonna lie, anytime I hear this song it makes me think of the comic Check Please bc in the Locker Room guide, the characters sing this in the background lol

the ABCs of KEH: C IS FOR… CHEERIOS
Mr. Schue, Mercedes and I talked it over, and we love being in Glee, but being in the Cheerios will give us more opportunities to shine. So we’re doing both.

glee shit that keeps me awake at night (i should start numbering these)
in 1x15 (the power of madonna) sue sylvester instructs the cheerios to start dating younger men (like madonna). bicon brittany is "dating" a 7 year old (which...😬) and sweet closeted baby gay santana is in a panic because she doesn't have a younger man, so brittany suggests she date finn, whose birthday is 3 days before santana's (and he is also, in brittany's words, super dumb).
so like i realise me fixating on this is ridiculously pedantic, but when people are like "santana hooked up with finn because his birthday's 3 days after hers which makes him a younger man"... no, it's the other way around, the joke is that finn's actually older than santana but she and brittany are lil space cadets with no concept of time so santana in her bid to channel madonna (and perform heterosexuality) had extremely unsatisfying sex with a (technically) older man
(then there's a layer of irony because britt says finn's super dumb and then immediately after, santana is like "yes, him, that one" even though she's just been told finn's actually older than her and therefore wouldn't fulfil the madonna-younger man criteria).
(also you know what else madonna did? pash britney and christina and make carson kressley lose his shit)

Kurt Fashion: Power of Madonna
Link to masterpost
the madonna ep!! Enter cheerio!Kurt lol
Tumblr media
Second hoodie sighting! Actually really like this, would wear. And with the laceup boots, very good look
Tumblr media
Now, kurt has had some... interesting tshirts over dress shirts looks in the past. This one, though, looks nice. I like the vintage-y feel of the shirt, I like it over the shortsleeved dress shirt, like it with the tie. And as always, he know how to work the black/white look. Would love this with a hat tho
Tumblr media
Kurt sweetie, i know you own hats that fit. Pls wear them. Love the boots, and that sweater looks really comfy so I can support it
Tumblr media
Detective Kurt?? Repeat of the grey/white shirt. ALso the mustard tie returns and looks much better here. Idk about the gold clip, looks weird against the tie, like 2 types of gold. Love the hat tho
Tumblr media
And enter cheerio!Kurt. Means less outfits for next eps bc he’s in uniform a lot. But whatever, I love cheerio Kurt and I wish he stayed on the team for the rest of high school. Like seriously why did he quit? Would be great for NYADA application??? *is salty*
