I thought I would share my one experience of crossing paths with Madonna. I was visiting Los Angeles in 1991 and I went on one of those bus tours that take you thru Hollywood and Beverly Hills to see the homes of movie stars. During the tour, we experienced two celebrity sightings (which according to the bus driver was a jackpot). The first was Dionne Warwick. As the bus went by her home (if I remember correctly, it was on Sunset Blvd), she was walking across her front lawn. As people on the tour bus waved through the windows, Dionne gave a big smile and waved back. Later on we had a second sighting and it was Madonna. She was jogging. We would never have known it was her because she was well disguised. But the bus driver knew it was her. He slowed the bus down so everyone could wave at her through the windows. Her response was to turn around and flip the bird on us. I have to admit that it was at that moment that I turned against Madonna. Not that I was ever a huge fan, but I did enjoy some of her songs. But when that finger incident occurred, it really turned me off. It wasn't the crassness of it per se. It was the fact that here was a tour bus of people waving at her. She had to know some of them were her fans. Yet she was so insulted to have her "privacy" invaded that she gave them the finger. What gets me about things like that are that stars like Madonna have CHOSEN to make a public spectacle of themself for profit. Madonna manipulates the media to get attention when it accrues to her advantage, but when she decides she wants a private moment like a jog, she thinks she can just turn the publicity switch off. Well fame doesn't work like that. If someone decides to pursue fame and fortune, then the cost of that is some loss of privacy. What's even more infuriating about these insulting actions on the part of Madonna like giving fans the finger for "invading her privacy", is that if it wasn't for all these fans she would be NOTHING. Where does she think all the hundreds of millions dollars she has now came from???? It came from fans...people who bought her records, paid the outrageous prices for her concert tickets, and yes, decided to wave at her if they saw her in public. She should be so grateful to ALL her fans for making her the rich woman she is rather than treating them like garbage. Comparing Dionne Warwick's attitude toward her fans to Madonna's really opened my eyes to what a low rent, classless person she truly was and continues to be. |

...thanks for sharing that and welcome to the Discussion Music Man!... ...I read somewhere that at the heart of every con artist is absolute contempt for their prey and I think this pretty much explains m's insufferable and unforgivable behaviour towards her fans....

Hello and welcome to the board. She has a history and habit of treating people like garbage, even people who are fans. We have discussed it in other threads, such as... Madonna was Rude There might be examples here: Ego thread Fans: Madonna and her fans I used to like Madonna until.... |

I'm surprised Madonna has been able to sell millions of records for years treating her fans this way. She must have Satan watching over her, LOL! Really, I am truly in awe of how lucky she's been being so rude and arrogant! |

I think some of Madonna's die hard fans are suffering from Stockholm Syndrome. I've been on other music forums where I've chatted with some of them. At times when I pointed out the fact that Madonna has treated her fans like garbage, they responded with things like "that's just Madonna being Madonna", "she's a Queen...she's supposed to act like a b**tch", "that's why we love her...she doesn't care what anyone thinks of her, even her fans", blah blah blah. They treat her like some type of goddess who has the right to do or say anything she wants. |

Wow! That's pretty damn sad. I wish I would run into somebody I'm a fan of and they treated me like crap. How the hell is that acceptable even if she is mega rich and famous? What, she doesn't have a moral center. And yet this skank preaches about peace. Please!

I am sorting through old threads on the board, organizing things. As such, I am finding a lot of good stuff - stuff I had forgotten about. So I am bumping some old threads to the top of the pile. I found Music Man's story interesting, so I bumped this up the page. |
