Oprah & Madonna
I was looking forward to the Madonna interview on Oprah. As a huge Madonna fan I wanted to hear about the adoption from the Madge’s mouth. First let down? The interview was via satellite. That is a pretty shitty trick, I assumed we would get Madonna in the studio, so the interview came off a bit cold.
Secondly, Madonna was OBVIOUSLY reading a script. Her acting was more obvious and just as bad as her movies. She had a lot of beautiful, real things to say about her family, her love for their new child “David” and the process of adoption. All of these things I appreciated as a fan. But the cold nature of Oprah’s questions and the set up of the interview were down right ghetto.
This was a platform where Madonna could set the record straight, and she did. She also spoke about the hardships of adoption and the how the process is corrupt and not beneficial to the children. At this point I am on Madonna’s side. This was not a publicity stunt, and Madonna handled it with class.
Here is Madonna’s new video to brighten up your day (no Malawian babies were harmed during the filming of “Jump”):

Agreed. Thanks for putting it in words. The via satellite scam was a crappy publicity trick. But on a shallow note, damn she looks good in the video, loving the hair!
