What's up with all this celebrity venom lately? Some clown in Cinderella dissing Cobain, Grohl pumping himself up my dissing Linkin Crap, and now the schizo Wilson dissing Madonna? First off, Wilson had more musical talent in his little toe than Madonna has in her whole silicone-enhanced body, but what the point here? Madonna didn't get big because she got naked, the sheeple were buying her eMpTyVee crap way before then. Wilson is just jealous because Madonna kept the sheep happy while he went freakin looneytunes. I wish these people would just quit sniping at each othere and make some good music, but then again, I still believe in Santy Claus.

Brian Wilson should "shut it"
Most Madonna fans are not old enough to even know she posed nude.....it was 20+ years ago.
I am not even that much a Madonna fan but this is utter BS. I feel compelled to rise to her defense.
Give the lady some marketing credit, after this many books & albums.....she deserves where she is & her status shouldn't be attacked by an aging artist on the verge of obscurity (Brian who? Most Madonna fans have no clue who he is or the Beach Boys)....this is more about Brian Wilson getting some attention at the expense of Madonna..personally I would rather talk about Jane's Addiction, Perry Farrell or Audioslave....just my opinion.
Lastly, most Brian Wilson fans or Beach Boys fans wouldn't know who Madonna is unless they have children.....feeling your mortality Brian? Whose next on the Brian Wilson Hit List? Vanessa Williams?
