Madonna Causing Outrage Again
Posted by Dan Haggerty on 05.12.2008
Once a diva, always a diva...
Madonna's alleged diva behaviour sparked outrage at a concert this weekend. The music superstar annoyed organisers and fellow artists on the bill at Radio 1's Big Weekend free music event, after demanding a helicopter to transport her from her London home to the festival in Maidstone, Kent – just 37 miles away.
When she finally arrived for her 20-minute set on Saturday, she issued a string of demands for her 70-strong entourage. A source revealed to Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "She had special Kabbalah water shipped in and demanded bouquets of white roses. While she only ate fresh fruit, the same can't be said of her friends. 'They arrived early and wolfed down free food and alcohol reserved for all the artists." The singer also reportedly angered other performers by turning up late for rehearsals, leaving the schedules in disarray.
Madonna's four-letter tirade during the live BBC broadcast caused a headache for the TV and radio bosses. Introducing "Hung Up", Madonna said, "You guys are going to have to stop f***ing it up out there because I need to feel some love. I'm going to do an old song, but not too old. F**k the present. Let's live in the past." Hosts Zane Lowe and Edith Bowman were forced to issue a hasty apology after the set, saying: 'An incredible performance from Madonna. That said, a quick apology for those people who might have felt the content offensive."

That makes me wonder... is the US' own Star Magazine heralded as a 'trusted' and 'respected' newspaper in the UK? If their dirt mags are regarded as such here, maybe it works the same the other way around? That would be quite sad, I believe.

The only paper I would trust in the UK is the Independant. The tabloids are shit and not worth the time of day. They did a report once on a child less than 12 months old playing Goldeneye and how wrong the kids parents were for allowing this to happen. They had a pic of the kid playing the game. The amazing thing was the kid (remember, this is a N64 controller) couldnt even hold the controller, yet he had managed to not only finish the game, but unlock the Goldengun cheat. Now thats quality playing.
