Middle age rebel


When is Madonna going to get over her angry teenage rebellion? We've had the angry sex pictures, the angry pointy bras, the angry here's-my-48-year-old-
crotch-in-a-highcut-leotard-thrust-too-close-
to-the-camera moment. I for one have had enough. But Madonna, alas, has not. The anger and need to shock are still raging and, despite being only two years from 50, Madonna feels the need to strap herself to a crucifix to piss off the Pope. Why does the Pope's disapproval matter so much? Surely it would have been more shocking for her just to go on stage and sing after a long career of whipping up 'controversy' for the sake of it. You can wrap your skinny ankles round your neck, change your outfits 25 times and compare the Pope to Mussolini all you like but you still can't sing. And you're still 48 not 15. Get over it.

Madonna has been the poster boy for each "phase" of psycho-babble female anger. Unfortunately, for us, she operates in a creative rut and hasn't been very versatile in demonstrating that psycho-babble in new or innovative ways. She has now entered the well trod-upon angry middle-age-woman phase, with its attendant increased testosterone/decreased estrogen levels.

Madonna has always shown she has balls in the figurative sense, and one of these days I expect, she will probably get around to showing us her real ones. Likely about the time she hits her golden girls dirty-old-woman phase.
