#2 She dissed the Britts last week. I think she's desperately trying to drum up some media attention, any media attention to increase sales before it goes into the bargain bin.

#3 Well, of course this is how she perceives "American values". I think she accurately describes the values of all the Americans she hangs out with -- other spoiled, wealthy celebrities and media elites. If I hung out with those people all the time, I'd get jaded pretty quick too.

#4 Okay - what follows is very, very crude - sensitive readers, look away. . .

Whenever I hear Madonna and Brittney Spears and Christina Aguilera speak out on just about anything, I find it difficult not to imagine any one of these idiots on all fours being f**ked by Ron Jeremy. "Oh, yes!" says Madonna. "Empower me, baby! Empower me right up my hot c**t!"

But it's not enough for Madonna. "You're not doing enough for the empowerment of women and the advancement of the feminist movement!" she cries, her whole body shaking to Jeremy the Hutt's physical administration of male cooperation in the relativising of gender politics. "Empower me up my ass!"

"You got it, bitch," belches Jabba, I mean, Jeremy, who takes the studded leather leash off her neck just long enough to change positions. "Now get on your back like a good feminist."

And so on. Fact is, on the values issue, Madonna still has quite a bit to answer for.

#5 Sounds like that deal with Satan had a time limit...maybe 20 years? ha ha! Seems like a lot of Satan's bonds have suddenly come due. Must have had a really good special on souls running several years back.

#7 Pot calling the kettle black from a safe distance, after getting hers.

#8 When a woman who simulates masturbation on stage in front of thousands; who records such bastions of morality as "Like a Virgin", "Material Girl", and "Hanky Panky"; and who has had two children out of wedlock--her first with her "personal trainer" and her second before her marriage to Guy Ritchie--starts lecturing me on morality and values all I can say is I must have really made a wrong turn somewhere!

Wow, I am feeling totally chastised right now. Maybe I'll blame my parents... it must be their fault I'm such an amoral wreck.

#10 Don't look at me. I've never understood why this talentless, gap-toothed skank is a "star"...

#11 JTE has a point. Madonna is correct when she says that only caring about "looking good, having cash in the bank, being perceived as rich, famous and successful or just being famous," is not a path to a satisfying life. But where did she get the idea that we share her narcissistic values?

#12 Pink & Fluffy, It's called projection.

#13 Madonna should exercise her fetish for exhibitionism and perform an unnatural sex act upon her self.......at least then we might be amused by her.

Hanoi Jane, The Baghdad Chicks and now Mosul Madonna.

#14 "We as Americans are completely obsessed and wrapped up in a lot of the wrong values -- looking good, having cash in the bank, being perceived as rich, famous and successful or just being famous..."

"The critics have been writing me off for 20 years. That's nothing new. As far as I know I still have plenty of fans and sell lots of records. Do I care what critics say about me?

Does this make any sense whatsoever? First she slams American values for wanting to be rich and famous, then she defends herself from the critics by saying she still sells lots of records (is rich) and has lots of fans (is famous).

She has become a parody of herself.

Sheesh.

#15 Where's Wierd Al Yankovic when you really need to spank this skank? Remember, 'Madonna' is a product with no more cultural significance than a can of Diet Pepsi. She's nothing more than something cheap to be consumed and thrown away.
