Let's not make her older than she is, though: 23 years of superstar status

You've got to be kidding. U2 have absolutely zero ability to create proper music, yet you count them as superstars? A lot of the music The Beatles made is disharmonious garbage, yet I don't think many would argue that they weren't/aren't superstars.

Whether or not you like Madonna's music, and whether or not she's the one who's written it, she is a superstar.


I suggest you get off your moral high horse. She kissed another girl. Get over it.


She does absolutely nothing in that picture that makes her any less of a role model to children than if she hadn't done it. Since when is it necessary to be a wholesome, run-of-the-mill suburbian housewife with no standpoints in order to write children's books?

Could you repeat that?
"Everything's so clear to me now: I'm the keeper of the cheese and you're the lemon merchant. Get it? And he knows it.
That's why he's gonna kill us. So we got to beat it. Yeah. Before he let's loose the marmosets on us."

I notice that you only mention Britney, like 99% of the articles I've ever read about the performance. She also kissed Christina Aguilera. And Christina's way hotter than Britney ever will be.

Are you saying I have my claws out? I assure you, I don't. I'm just far too lazy to type all that out more than once.

(Yet here I am, typing all this out, which is probably no less exhausting, when combined with the other post... I'm beginning to think perhaps it would have been easier to just type out the original post again. But I can't do it now, 'cause then I'd be wasting both the energy I've spent typing these two posts and the energy I'd spend re-typing the original post. Ah, why does laziness have to be so energy-consuming?)

Well, not all your claws. One of them maybe ("pinkie-claw", left paw)?

Ah, so that's why my Q, A, <, and Z keys are all scratched and full of little holes all of a sudden!

She IS a nutcase like MJ.

She just doesn't molest kids.

That we know of.

Maybe that explains why she wrote that children's book
