Madge's Fiction, Or An Example of "Promotion" As Storytelling
NO TRUER WORDS HAVE PROBABLY EVER BEEN SPOKEN BY MADONNA AS WHEN SHE TOLD VANITY FAIR, "You have to get to a point where you care as little about getting smoke blown up your ass as you do when you become a whipping boy in the press. Because, ultimately, they both add up to shit."
Of course there was more to that comment, but none of it is important at this moment. What is relevant is that Madonna admits to being impervious to having "smoke blown up" her ass. So what follows is either 1) She is a very poor listener. Or 2) She is every bit as capable of scattering scat herself.
And now we have the evidence: The British blog Holy Moly! has reported that Madge has been seen scouting out the offices of high-profile divorce lawyer Nicholas Mostyn allegedly to begin divorce proceedings against her hubby, Guy Ritchie.
The rumored divorce comes mere months after Madonna was slogging the "happy" shit while promoting her new album Hard Candy. During her much-ballyhooed press tour, Madge pooh-poohed rumors that she and Guy were having marital difficulties and talked about how great sex is with Guy. Her longtime spokeswoman continues to deny the rumor telling press sources yesterday that the rumor was "totally not true."."
So which comes first: Smoke-blowing? Or words adding "up to shit." We don't want to know what goes on in your bedroom, Madonna. Just get off the shit-spewing merry-go-round when you're selling something so we know who to believe.
