(Hecklerspray) Christian groups got all angry at Madonna for seemingly taking the piss out of Jesus during the show, while the majority of sensible people saw it as a welcome respite - it is, after all, the first Madonna publicity stunt for ages that didn't involve seeing an old lady rolling about the floor with her fanny hanging out. But what did Jesus think of Madonna's stunt?
He's OK with it, apparently, and not mad at Madonna at all. That's according to Madonna, at least.[see full story for more]

the 200 million counts great albums like Like a Prayer or True Blue. Ones that we CO-written and produced by the great Patrick Leonard. Confessions has not sold 8 million copies. That's a fabrication, pure and simple. Check Billboard.com for this. Just a hair over a million copies. The last three albums were her biggest flops. The went on tur with Music, then the worst AMERICAN LIFE and now with Confessions. Trust me, you know nothing more about Madonna than I do. I can outbeat you in any Madonna trivia. The fact remains, she cannot sell records and she is boring now. She's cashed, like last week's paycheck. Certain MSM participants create stories like this one to GIVE false hype to give her attention. That's her game, and people like you obviously still buy it. All Christians I know could give a rat's ass what Madonna does. it doesn't affect them one bit...but articles portray them otherwise unfairly to create hype that never existed in the first place. Pat Robertson or Jerry Falwell (the 2 largest christian figures in America) have said nothing about her performances. Why?! Because they can care less!

Whatever your opinion towards her, she sold more than 200 million record and her Confessions album sold 8 million. Where do you live, Steve? Kansas?

Madonna is appealing to the Godless and defending it by calling it art. She has to have something to say to her kids for God sake. I was a Madonna fan for many years. She stopped shocking me after the sex book. Nothing she can do now can shock. Though, it is explainable why she is sinking to religious imagery. Actually religious offense is so 1980's. Stupid Americans keep playing her game, but the majority of America is over Madonna. The only reason she goes on tour and charges $350 a ticket is because her records do not sell anymore. Tip all hats to the writer of this, because NONE of us need to see her fanny rollin around on the floor anymore!

I second that. Christians seem to be the most full of hate these days..besides...Madonna is getting attention for a good cause..they should try it.
