Madge Is Not Amused By M.I.A.'s Middle Finger
Yes, it's almost a week later and we're still talking about M.I.A. burning the innocence of a million children by flipping a bitch off during Madge's Super Bowl halftime show. M.I.A. already gave an eye roll of an apology by blaming it on nerves, blah, blah, blah, blah... On Ryan Seacrest's radio show (via USA Today) this morning, he asked Madge about it. The old Madge would've shot up her middle finger at all the hos who are saying that M.I.A.'s middle finger was a big deal. The new Madge adjusted the stick in her culo and said that M.I.A.'s fuck you to America was highly inappropriate. Okay, MOM!
“I was really surprised. I didn’t know anything about it. I wasn’t happy about it. I understand it’s punk rock and everything, but to me there was such a feeling of love and good energy, and positivity it seemed negative. It’s such a teenager…irrelevant thing to do…there was such a feeling of love and unity there what was the point? It was just out of place.”
Translation: "I was really surprised that one of my minions would go against my wishes. I understand M.I.A. is low-class trash and everything, but to me there was such a feeling of loving ME and good energy revolving around ME and the people positively worshiping ME! It's such a STUNT QUEEN thing to do and I'm supposed to be the ultimate STUNT QUEEN. There was such a feeling of loving ME and the people were uniting to bow at MY feet and then that Britatrash slag had to take the spotlight away from the spiritual art I was creating? When Moses was parting the Red Sea, did one of those slave children make the moment all about them by throwing up a middle finger? They knew their place! And now I looooooathe M.I.A. more than I loathe you know what."
In other words, M.I.A., you and your first born are in danger, girl.


Really, you think it's a good idea to be giving me the finger, bitch? I'll be looking for this dumb-shit MIA next time I'm walking down the street, and when I find her, I'll be so all up in her face, she'll be cryin' and beggin' for me not to beat her ass. Ha ha won't matter because I WILL beat her ass.

Ugh. Attention whore Madge prolly orchestrated this whole contro to drum up coverage. It would be exactly down her alley. Pfffft. Next.

That's exactly what I thought too.

I guess Madge has forgotten all the crusty immature crap she's done in the last 25 years...and let's not forget all her accents....
It's fascinating to watch her confirm what a vile little creature she is and especially with MK's picture perfect colour commentary.

i'll make this quick-as a londoner i can confirm you in the UK the middle finger means fuck you-i assumed this meaning was universal? does it not mean that in the USA?
i did sit through that monstrosity of a music video posted here and like another poster said MIA flips the bird in that so whats the big deal?
didnt know this was a big deal or being talked about-personally surprised "families" watch the superbowl as from what i've seen the adverts are pulled straight from satans arse what with the sexism etc inherient in them so why are people complaining about this when the superbowl has got that crap going on? i dont know what time its put on in the USA but sounds to me very child unfriendly so either get rid of the inappropriate advertising or put it on at a later time. so in regards to this people getting their knickers in a twise for MIA's middle finger need to STFU. ok that was way longer than expected. off to bed nao.

We must be neighbors. I live 2 blocks away. I'ma throw some eggs at her house if you wanna meet up later. And I agree....what has irked me most about her was how during her "transformation" (Kabbalah, faux accent, storybook writing, etc.) she behaved (and still does) as though she knows the secret to life and is letting us in on it. As if she has something to teach us without having the slightest self awareness that we all actually KNOW who she is and where she came from. Our memories reach further back than 1997, Madge!
I've posted this once before on DList but it bears repeating:
Time: 1983
Place: Paradise Garage, NYC
Madonna: "Ok, let's see if you pussies can take it"
I will never forget that night when Madonna got booed.
Mein Gott. This place is infested with teen haters.
Grow up bitches. BTW, it only took 2 year for Lady Gaga to start stealing from Madonna.

I was entirely unaware of how sucky it would get.

I just can't believe folks praising Madonna's "performance" at the Super Bowl. She lip synched and STILL almost busted her old ass TWICE. I thought is was like her: tacky, overblown, over rated, and not age appropriate. Seriously, the lyrics to her new "song" make Taylor Swift's teenage drivel seem mature.
As far as MIA. I just thought it was a LAME memaw stunt to be cool. Cringe-worthy.
I love MIA. She's very famous (a nobody? Really?) can be a bit of an ass in the name of edginess (like defending the London rioters last year) but her music, particularly her early stuff, is amazing. She is badass, something Madonnas has never and will never be. I didn't watch the superbowl but giving the finger seems to be a twat move. Who cares? I'll forgive her anything.

MIA is just another tool. I'm starting to believe that whole bit about Madge being a closet satanist...bitch is EVIL. She apparently fancies herself a goddess like Isis or Ishtar and the sad truth is that her deluded fans are legion.
Oh Madge..you hypocrite!
She is the ultimate madonnawannabe!
That's absolute BS. MIA gives the middle finger at 2:16 in Madonna's music video. Why not just say, it wasn't TV appropriate, instead of that utter BS about negativity when she clearly didn't think that was an issue when she put it in her music video.
More than ever KIIS FM is one big commercial shill for shitty 'music' and shittier products. It's not really a 'radio show' at all. It's one big commercial without a screen.
I just can't imagine this woman being anymore annoying, pretentious and hypocritical. Her entire career was based on childish, impetuous gestures and actions but now that she pretends to have class, people like MIA are suddenly trash (she's right, but Madonna is older trash). I happen to live down the street from Madonna and can't wait for the day she's climbing into her gigantic Escalade as I'm passing by so I can tell her what a piece of shit asshole I think she is. One of her cute security guards might rough me up, so it's a win-win :-)

PRICELESS & original! You're comment had me making that long snorty contained laugh noise in my throat. Not many do. :-D
BS.
Madonna doesn't burp out a queef without it being planned in advance and orchestrated, recorded, and remixed by whoever's the "coolest" DJ in Williamsburg that week.
(a hint, Madge: Williamsburg is no longer cool. Read the memo.)
She knew it would happen and she probably suggested it.
M.I.A. is essentially a nobody, so Madonna got a LOT of PR from someone else being all "provocative" while Her Madjesty looked all professional - and now gets to look all "proper" and "Wallis-like."
Wallis and David - oh yeah: read the Scotty Bowers book "Full Service" to learn a bit more about them.....
And
Or that's the truth and it's terrible to think they let a vile woman into every home in the world for profit? What exactly will you take to your grave that you got from Madonna? The FBI is investigating the Malawi thing so something is going on there. Those homes were bulldozed and she did apparently choke that kid and settle out of court. She also snapped off on some kids infront of Michael Jackson around the same time they to were autograph seekers. There's a reason that she looks like an over microwaved chicken
cutlet.
Something is definitely wrong with that woman period and Im not the one that made any allegations Im the one that read articles and believed there to be some truth in the content.
In case Kuntdonna didn't notice, the sentence "I don't give a shit" is MIA's part in her own song, so it was an adequate gesture to go with the pathetic lyrics she was spilling out with the help of those two desperate girls. You don't say "I dont give a shit" and then throw a Bieber-style hand-heart, do you?
Madonna is pulling the MIA's rug, what a low thing to do with someone who's just collaborated with her.
Classic case of pot calling kettle. Madge is just pissed that all the attention is not on her and is on someone else doing something controversial.
MIA is actually really hot...that picture is just awful

♦ When all else fails, they call me.
♦ Life sucks. Shit Happens. I'm a student of t-shirts.
Madonna has pulled some moves in the past, but performing with Micki Ninja and MIA? Jumped the shark trying to expand her base into the black market.
Can we hear what Elton John thinks about what Madonna thinks? Then Furnish can tweet about it and we'll ask Vadge what she thinks about what Elton and hubby thinks....
IMO they are both disrespectful, untalented, attention whores that make major money by disrespecting themselves and everyone else. Kinda like the Kardashians, Jersey Shore cast, etc. Actually, I never knew MIA existed before this and judging by the pic, she looks like she belongs in a horror flick.
Satan, you're probably right. As I recall when Madonna and Michael Jackson attended the (Grammys? MTV awards?) together, she gave an interview later about it, and said that she had tried to introduce him to some stylists because she thought his image needed work. I do think that was shortly before his "underwear on the outside" phase.
I agree with Madge. What was the point? I like MIA's music, but from what I understand she just acts like a douche bag most of the time. It's too bad. Oh well, I'm guessing her fifteen minutes are up in three....two....one...
What Madonna is saying is: I am finally OLD!!

Thank you MK for voicing what I was thinking during that trashy performance to Madge's Ego during half time. This narcissist is so far up her own butt it would take years of colonics to find a way out.
Also she often gives the two fisted middle fingers at her performances I was at a party on a roof top a few years ago, that overlooked a concert of hers. She kept the audience waiting for two hours and gave the middle finger and cursed the president (Bush) out for several minutes after she arrived. Who cares about your politics, Madge. Hydrangea hater.
Here's an interesting article about the history of the use of the middle finger:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-16916263
It's always about Madonna.
FabulousDivaBuns
Madonna beat me up," reported Keith Sorrention, a 10-year-old fan from Staten Island, whose parents sued the superstar after she allegedly choked their son. Little Keith and his older sister Darlene were devoted fans. They knew when Madonna got up, where she took morning coffee, where she jogged.
They knew the name of her private secretary, when she left the theater (after performing in Speed the Plow) and from which door. What they didn't know was how Madonna felt about their adulation.
"We're her fans," Keith said innocently. "We were following Madonna out of the San Remo [co-op]. I ran in front and took her picture and she said, 'Please, not today, it's my day off.' We kept following her up different blocks ... and that's when she started cursing me out -- she's got some mouth on her -- and threw me against the wall. Look. I got bruises," he told New York Post columnist Amy Pagnozzi, exposing a skinny arm.
Keith sufferes from "regular nightmares," according to his attorney, who filed a $600,000 suit over the encounter.
--------------------------------------------
That’s called chocking a ten year old? Sounds like the parents told their kids to bug her until she did something to make some money. How did they all know her every single daily move? Also no schools were built yet in Malawi – instead they are focused on ten that are already there. There is nothing wrong with bashing people unless you have some “Mariah/Janet/Kylie/Britney/Beyawnce is the true diva” intent. Its silly to accuse people of child abuse and creating homelessness for the sake of Kabala centers.
At least it wasn't hydrangeas, Madge.

i've seen (against my will), madonna's vagina and some of her other hairy parts. Hahaha
HER OTHER HAIRY PARTS?????? ROTFL! aaaaaaaaaaah :O
"What is that strange clear liquid dripping out of my eye?" MK
I also wanted to say I find it hilarious that she called MIA's actions teenaged and irrelevant and there she is on the left doing the same sht. What a hypocrite moron
I have one thing to say...You Bettah Work.
I just found out Madonna was sued in the 90's for choking a 10 year old kid for asking for an autograph I also found out that she bulldozed a bunch of homes in Malawi to make way for her 15 million dollar academy that may or may not be built cause her Kaballah cult members misappropriated the money. On top of that she has no talent AT ALL. She hires people to make her look like somebody and steals the bulk of her material.
So she can STFU about a middle finger especially when her nana pubes were out in full view.
I have one thing to say...You Bettah Work.
I am surprised at the amount of people who say she didn’t have any feeling/emotion to her face for the superbowl. Post 1990 and many times before Madonna has a look of complete indifference towards humans when doing a concert, more just going through the strict measured motions, this time it seemed as though she did feel something....(fill in the blank)
Sour grapes that the sweet delicate flower that MIA is known to be (<== sarcasm) "went off script" without expressed permission by The New English Rose that is Lady Madonna (<== yeah, more sarcasm). Nothing more.
Wasn't MADONNA the one who kept purposely and proudly dropping F-BOMBS on Letterman's show a few years back (when she was in her 50's or the 1950's, whenever she was youngest)?
And no, tonguing Britney and Xtina during the MTV Awards was NOT seen as an obvious ploy to make an otherwise lackluster performance worth remembering.
Hypocrite, please.
And just when I try to take vadge's side, she makes me want to slap her....fuck it-ima let Gaga copy her without complaining.
(But her Rome reference WAS cool. Oh well...)

Johnny Cash did that singer-flipping-off-the-camera thing a helluva lot better at his San Quentin concert in 1969... http://iconicphotos.wordpress.com/2009/08/22/johnny-cashs-finger/
Like OhDave said below, "A pointless gesture is worse than no gesture at all." MIA's bird was just silly and out of context. And Madonna's being all mad about it is also silly.

Riiight. Flipping the bird at the Superbowl halftime show, sandwiched between commercial after commercial for junk food and cars. SO punk rock. *rolling eyes*

i just looked it up and m.i.a. is a londoner. the 'finger' might not be the 'finger' in london.
I think it is exactly the same thing in London. I don't know how offensive it is in US but in UK it means fuck you. And is the strongest digital gesture you can make.
Now the Italians have even better ones but that is the top end of ours.
herp derp face! m.i.a. engaging in cultural appropriation again, what a surprise.
