On one hand I think Madonna looks AMAZING in her video for "Give It To Me." On the other hand I am kind of skeeved out by a 49-year-old woman gyrating her middle-aged pelvis (albeit an amazingly toned one) in my direction.
Sam Sparro, an Aussie singer who's had a hit single in the U.K. with "Black and Gold" but hasn't made it big in the U.S. yet, says that Madonna should just give up cause she's not young anymore, which is ageist and insulting to women (hello, ancient relics the Rolling Stones), but I think there is also an ounce of truth to what he says.
"Madonna is wretched at the moment - absolutely vulgar. Put it away," the young artist raved to UK magazine Attitude. He claimed that Madge had resorted to desperate measures to maintain her career stronghold.
"You're not young and sexy any more," he railed, telling the interviewer Madonna had been "thoughtful and mature for a while and now she's chucked it away in a desperate attempt at being hot again. It's a bit vile."
The 25-year-old also let fly at Madonna's looks, saying: "I definitely think she's had some work done - like a recent facelift."
Despite all these mixed feelings, I think I should hit the gym a little bit more this week.
