"Please always be you" and I'd like to add, please stay out of my sight you pretentious, classless piece of no talent, grasping crap.

aw - celebs live in a world of people who think it's fine - just for them, just this once - to invade their space and tell them all the things that they lovelovelove about them, while they have the chance!

There's a lot of bitter wannabe assholes around who spend their time eye rolling and being obsequious too. Going into press conferences can be career breakers and fucking up and saying something wrong there, never goes away. I'd want any mental distractions to be removed too.

In that environment, everyone is paying for the perception that Madonna IS better than them. It's a consensual hallucination, and they know it. If they don't want to work there, they can be replaced in a blink.

And Madge is at the level where she can demand face turning, I'd say. She's done a lot of time.

Rep, I'd buy that argument if those same celebs who get angry and frustrated with that attention weren't the same ones calling the papz and doing whatever they could for publicity when they need it. I should be able to talk to them, I pay them. Just let me know when your office hours are and I'll drop buy.

@replica, I have to say "fuck that" to your argument. Because she's put in some time and had a few good songs over the last 30 odd years, Madonna now has the right to demean people? People that are volunteering their time to help her promote her (likely) shitty new film. Did I mention "fuck that"? I guess I just don't understand the mindset, because I don't go apeshit over celebrities.

I am trying to imagine Ann Margaret (sexy actress singer of her day)or Grace Kelly (who managed to actually BECOME royalty, not just compare herself to it) pulling a cunty stunt like that. Rich does not equal class.

As a duly elected representative of the Hydrangeas union local 214 and for all proud Hydrangeas everywhere I am here to inform you that we are boycotting your website due to your support of the known Hydrangea Hater known as Madonna. We regret that it has come to this but we can no longer support a website that encourages flowering shrub discrimination. We also call on our brother unions of flowering shrubs and our entire family:
# : Plants (Plantae)
# : Flowering Plants (Magnoliophyta)
# : Dicotyledons | Dicots (Magnoliopsida)
# : Rosales (Rosales)
# : Hydrangea Family (Hydrangeaceae)

to join us in this boycott. We will be protesting outside but only in the morning because we like shade in the afternoon.
FLOWER POWER!

I get your joy when there is a cuntastic situation at play, I really do. My problem with Madonna is that in her dotage she has become a glum cunt. And that fake British accent which I just want to slap right out of her mouth.

The only thing worse than a talentless, humourless twat who sucked her way onto the charts demeaning people and behaving like her shit doesn't stink is idiots who defend her despicable behaviour. Madonna has been a full-fledged cunt for many years, and the sooner she reaches the point where the paps ignore her, and all she hears from the public she treats with such contempt is crickets chirping the better.

I loathe you Madonna. I'd like to see you suffocated in a silo full of lovely blue hydrangeas.

I am, unfortunately, old enough to remember when Madonna got her start, and it wasn't doing "classy" stuff like Vogue. Her first songs/videos ("Lucky Star," "Like A Virgin," "Papa Don't Preach") and her whole look back then had a sort of gritty working-class feel. She wasn't spit-polished and plastic surgeried out of recognition, and she appealed directly to little lower-middle class girls who wanted to wear funky clothes and tease out our peroxided hair. So for her to have morphed into this...this...THING is really a slap in the faces of all us poor kids who had to save up our allowances to buy the cassette tapes that made her rich.

Also, she's from MICHIGAN, for cripe's sake.

I remain aghast at celebrity culture in general. Look, I like to be entertained, but that doesn't make the people who provide my entertainment any better than anyone else. I like to eat, too, but then I don't seek to emulate my waiters and supermarket checkers. Actors, musicians, athletes, and celebutards in general shouldn't be role models for children (at least, not simply because they're celebrities), and certainly not for adults. Yet our culture lionizes these people, giving them money and attention for acting in immature and self-absorbed ways.

Madonna isn't especially intelligent or wise. She hasn't aged gracefully due to her abuse of plastic surgery. She used to be an incredibly popular artist, true, and an influential one as well... but that mostly came about in the 80s and early 90s. What she is, now, is a slightly freakish-looking termagant, who's become erroneously convinced of her general superiority over humanity. And the bitch of it is, people enable this bullshit.

I stand by my shit. Each and every one of those precious volunteers will do the exact same thing given the chance. That's why they are there.

If they can't handle it, they shouldn't show up, because that business is literally made of spite and ego.

It's another iteration of don't hate the Player, hate the game.

And Madonna worked her ass off to get there. And more's the wonder, stay there, for the most part. She is a master cuntress and I think that Courtney is balls on accurate in that we should laud powerful women for taking what they want and calling the shots how they like them.

I have no desire to see Madonna fawn over shit. She's a different animal than, say, Johnny Depp. But even he said that money is important to him - because real privacy is the most expensive thing in the world for a guy like him.

RE "And Madonna worked her ass off to get there. And more's the wonder, stay there, for the most part. She is a master cuntress and I think that Courtney is balls on accurate in that we should laud powerful women for taking what they want and calling the shots how they like them."

I will give you that men do the same thing (perhaps not as publicly) and don't get quite the public outrage that women do in the same situation, but that's it.

I'm getting tired - actually, I AM tired, really fucking tired, of being expected to be OK with colossal assholishness just because it comes from an "artist" or a captain of industry or someone who thinks the rest of us should give them a break because they've contributed ... what, exactly? I'd like it if the standard for successful was something other than extreme wealth or celebrity.

I like some of Madonna's music, but she's no Mozart. She's a pop star who's managed to hold onto some relevance (kind of) by being around so long and not checking out like Amy Winehouse or Kurt Cobain. Other than that, fuck her superiority complex.

Kim Jong Il is powerful, too. So why not throw some love his way for taking what he wants and calling the shots how he likes them? Other powerful people: Hitler, Pol Pot, Jim Jones. I know Madonna's not in their league, but still.

The worship of power is not a good idea.

Slash. You're out of the game based on your comment content. Rules are rules. Tell Godwin you need a ribbon too.

Remember we're playing the game of 'render the playing field unto it's least member'. That shit never ends well.

Madonna. The only living celebrity who turned her 15 minutes of fame into 15 bajillion fofillion minutes just by reinventing herself every couple of years. Hats off to her! Most of her contemporaries and peers haven't achieved as much as she has. But Lady Gaga is waaaay too kind to everyone. How long will it be before she turns into a bitchy queen stick-up-her-c*nt like Madonna? The clock is ticking.

Could not agree more with Slash. Madonna is a fucking bitch and a half and the fact that the c word (which had been banned on this site for awhile now) made it's glorious re-entry here is testament to how stupid a conversation this is.

"Madonna's a bitch but she's allowed to be because she's above us all" is EXACTLY the reason I started coming to this site 6 or 7 years ago, because that attitude was nowhere to be found. If a woman is a bitch she's called one. When Gweneth (I dont give a shit I misspelled her name) spouts off some bullshit about being just like us (with a 300,000 dollar car) she's called on it.

People shouldn't get away with being inhuman just because they're famous. Diva is indeed another word for bitch.

We get it, Replica. You like douchebaggy behavior and think tact and etiquette are for weaklings. Yay, you! You are the edgiest and the coolest and the most interesting commenter ever! You are indeed a speshul snowflake! Your Golden Pookie will be arriving shortly by messenger. Said messenger has been instructed not to look at you directly.

Speaking of, that "DON'T LOOK AT ME" behavior is pretty standard among divas. I've heard it mentioned in connection with Mariah Carey and Jennifer Lopez as well. Apparently eye contact is a HUGE no-no with some celebrities. YES, REPLICA, WE STILL GET IT.

I don't know how talented she is, as it seems she only has success* when she partners up with more talented people, like Bjork, for instance. Most of her music bores me and I turn the station when it comes on.

*Not monetary success, as we all know popular doesn't mean artistically valid, but an actually decent song.

She's an elitist asshole though. I do hope that someone really does smack her around sometime soon. I'm so bored with celebrity entitlement.

Wow. Just wow. The amount of affronted energy poured into this is mind-boggling. So she doesn't like certain type of flower. So she expressed herself less than graciously. So we go on a rampage of commentry.
Anyone want to discuss her third world adoption loopholery, charity money disappearance shenanigans or historical film revisionism?

Warren Beatty said that Madge didn't want to live off-camera. Looks like Norma Desmond.

My Firefox stopped working saying the server wasn't found but Internet Explorers still works. I used to use firefox all the time but only recently it stopped working. I already checked the firewall and it allows firefox so i don't know what's wrong..

Madonna is perfectly within her rights to be a flaming shitbag of a person, but first she will blow me

I've been surfing online more than 3 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It’s pretty worth enough for me. Personally, if all web owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be a lot more useful than ever before.

he blog was how do i say it… relevant, finally something that helped me. Thanks

It is well told.
