Fifth Column
Madonna thanks France for opposition to Iraq war
2003-05-08
Hey! Look who's back in Fifth Column! Again!
Madonna has thanked France for its opposition to the Iraqi war, during a private performance for 200 guests of a radio station in Paris. Dressed in a low-cut black top and black glittery trousers, she performed the title track to her album, American Life.The exclusive event, held at the city's Nobel restaurant, lasted 40 minutes.
Well, good for you! And, don't worry, nobody back here in the US of A will never hear about this. Just ask Natalie Maines.
But for those not invited to the venue, the concert was broadcast by the radio station live over the internet and to nine European countries.
Wow! How lucky can you be!
As she thanked the French for opposing conflict in Iraq, she told fans: "Here in France I feel at home."
Well, I think we all have the answer for that...

#10  People, please! Don't feed the trolls! She just does it for publicity, and the media (and, ahem, others) just rise to the bait every time.

#9  as they say: the carpet don't match the drapes.
She's made comments inflammatory to anybody who'd listen, then suck-up reversals - it's obvious she's trolling for interest about her "controversy" but not sure how to bring it about without doing the death knell

#8  Douglas De Bono: I remember the Madonna nude shots from the mid-80's. As I recall, she's definitely no blond.

#7  I'd like to see her go to a radio station in Baghdad and talk to a group of Iraqis about her opposition to the war.
