More photos here, including crucifix in thigh high hose, another image of her holding a knife in her mouth

Madonna Covers Interview Magazine -- Holding Crucifix

Crucifix in thigh high hose (or click here to view)
-Other than the crucifix, for some reason she reminds me of Beyonce here (maybe it's the big hair),.

It also reminds me of the Smokin' Aces movie poster, and that movie Bruce Willis was in where they filmed everything against a green screen (I think that was Sin City?):

Lady Gaga Vs Madonna

Madonna is No Saint Teresa
  • by Joe Carter

    At the Washington Post’s On Faith section, Mark Judge argues in “Lady Gaga is no Madonna” that his fellow conservatives don’t understand pop music. He starts out making a defensible case before attemping a bizarre contrarian interpretation of pop-star Madonna’s infamous “Like a Prayer” video:

    Madonna’s video for “Like a Prayer” is an intelligent and even devout meditation on grace, love and conscience. Lady Gaga’s is lazy trash.

    As I will explore in my forthcoming book “A Tremor of Bliss: Sex, Catholicism, and Rock ‘n’ Roll,” Madonna’s video is actually a powerful depiction of the vitality of the Catholic saints and their ability to intercede in our lives and give us gifts of courage. In the video, Madonna witnesses a black man falsely accused of a crime. Terrified of the racists in the town, she flees into a church, where she prays to St. Martin de Porres, a black saint. She falls asleep and in her dream the statue of the saint actually comes to life, becoming her lover. She wakes up filled with a new bravery. She fingers the real criminals, and ends the video jubilantly dancing with a gospel choir.

    When “Like a Prayer” was released, it was completely misunderstood by conservatives. A bishop condemned it. So did Donohue. On the other side, liberals mindlessly defended Madonna without understanding the message of the video. The only truly coherent analysis came from Fr. Andrew Greeley, a liberal Catholic priest. “Like a Prayer” was blasphemous, wrote Greeley in America magazine, “only for the prurient and the sick who come to the video determined to read their own twisted sexual hang-ups into it. Only for those who think that sexual passion is an inappropriate metaphor for divine passion (and thus are pretty hard on Hosea, Jesus, Saint Paul, Saint Bernard of Clairvaux and Saint Teresa of Avila).”


    Judge claims that comparing Madonna to Lady Gaga is ” yet another sign of the pop culture (and even religious) illiteracy of the right.” But it’s Judge who appears to be confused about religion. I’m not a Catholic so I may be missing some essential nuance, but I don’t think that in the history of the Church saintly intercession entailed sexual intercourse. There is a profound differnce between using sexual passion as a metaphor and a saint actually having sex with a petitioner. I’m not sure if it’s blasphemous to depict Madonna fornicating with Martin de Porres on a church pew—but it is certainly disrespectful to the memory of a man who was not only a devout Christian but a life-long practitioner of celibacy.

    I agree with Judge that conservatives need to be more well-informed about pop culture in order to provide more relevant criticism. In turn, Judge would do well to become more well-informed about the Christian faith.

I understand pop music pretty well, thank you very much (directed at the author of the above article, of course). I think conservatives of my generation and younger will also have a better understanding of pop music. I also agree that "Alejandro" doesn't have much in common with "Like A Prayer" but the "sex scene" (if you want to call it that; to me it was more of a "make out scene") in the latter video was tossed in there for shock value, nothing more. Madonna doesn't give a damn about portraying faith in a positive light, or equating it with love and passion or whatever.

Lady Gaga fails to provoke Catholic Church with "Judas"
  • by Drew Grant
    The pop star attempts to create a Madonna-like controversy, but can't raise the Vatican's ire
Here's the part that caught my attention:
  • Back in 1989, Madonna's "Like a Prayer" managed to get the Vatican to release a statement condemning the video as blasphemous. Down the line, it was voted the most groundbreaking music video of all time. Lady Gaga was trying to cash in on some of that controversy with her new song "Judas," but ultimately the video was too confusing to upset anyone.
And that is what I said about Madonna's Like A Prayer video (see older posts here on the board), only swap out the word "confusing" with "ambiguous" (or "vague").

That was my view of LAP when I first saw it in 1989.

I didn't understand why people were so upset about the LAP video, because there wasn't anything truly offensive about the video in and of itself (unless you maybe consider the burning crosses; I could especially understand black people having issues with that - she was using those as a cheap prop for her video).

The LAP video was one of those products where Madonna was just randomly tossing in religious imagery (even though the use of the imagery itself was not particularly shocking or crude) because she knew it would upset people anyhow.

Madonna clearly wanted the LAP video to be controversial, but it was rather bland.

Unfortunately, some religious conservatives have a tendency to automatically over- react to just about any use of religious icons and motiffs in settings outside of churches (sometimes their outrage is justified, but sometimes I think it is an over reaction).

And that usual knee jerk over reaction was what Madonna was counting on and expecting.

I think people are now so jaded it's going to take a bit more than dancing in a sexy outfit while wearing a cross in a video to stir up religious controversy.

I do think Madonna is/was a totally blasphemous person due to other factors (such as stating in interviews that she liked crucifixes because they 'had naked men on them'), but not necessarily based on the LAP video.

Well I' a conservative who understands her music and videos. It's all shock value for publicity and to get people to write about her. There's nothing deep in her videos at all. LAP was all about "Let me make out in a church with a saint, black on top of it, and throw in some offensive KKK crosses." All of them are plotted like that. Have some nudity, women kissing women, humping objects, dead mother with stitched lips in coffin, crotch grabbing, whatever it takes in her sick scream for attention.

Excuse me but, beautiful photos? I've seen better and I'm pretty sure that she ripped off some old celebrity for those photos.

According to this story, she stepped on a cross during her show (to make a political type statement). She is so disrespectful, hypocritical, and rude.

Russian activists sue Madonna for $10m in ‘moral damages’
  • The pro-Kremlin group Trade Union of Russian Citizens is taking US pop icon Madonna to court for blasphemy, and for damaging the cultural foundations of St. Petersburg, where she held her latest concert in Russia.

    The activists will sue the singer on August 17 in the Moskovsky Duistrict Court in St. Petersburg, they said. They are seeking compensation of 333 million roubles (over $10 million) from Madonna, and from the company that organized the concert.

    “She insulted the believers’ feelings, she promoted homosexuality when there were children at the concert and this is forbidden in St Petersburg. We, the residents of the cultural capital, suffered a colossal moral damage,” union spokesperson Darya Dedova told the press.

    The activists plan to demonstrate video records of Madonna stepping on the Russian Orthodox Cross and asking the public to raise their hands with pink bracelets, supposedly a sign of solidarity with the LGBT community, Dedova said.

    According to a recently adopted St Petersburg law banning the promulgation of homosexuality to minors, the defending party will have to pay additional 50 percent of the ordered compensation as a fine that will go to the city budget if found guilty, Dedova said.

    The union claimed it will use the money to protect city residents from homosexuality and pedophilia.

    The Trade Union of Russian Citizens previously took action against Madonna on August 13, when the group filed a complaint to the city prosecutor’s office requesting an investigation into the concert. Prosecutors did not respond to the request.

    Another St. Petersburg public organization, Parental Control, also filed a letter to police asking that action be taken against the pop star for breaching the city’s ban on gay propaganda.

    Madonna’s August 7 concert in St Petersburg was preceded by small-scale protests. At the concert, Madonna voiced strong support for p***y Riot, the punk band currently awaiting sentencing on charges of hooliganism for their ‘punk prayer’ in Moscow’s main Orthodox cathedral, in protest against the Russian government and its ties to the Russian Orthodox Church.

I can't believe I almost forgot we had this thread.

I've already copied articles on other threads about this.

In the song "Holy Water," off the album "Rebel Heart," Madonna makes sings some trashy, racy lyrics.

Madonna on explaining sexy 'Rebel Heart' lyrics to her kids

Madonna's 'Rebel Heart' is defiant to a fault (album review)
  • By Troy L. Smith, Northeast Ohio Media Group
    on March 09, 2015 at 10:30 AM

    ..."Rebel Heart" gets off to an okay start. "Living for Love" works its way to a danceable chorus driven by Diplo's pulsating beat, while "Devil Pray" utilizes the same religious themes Madonna has been capitalizing on for decades.
    ....Perhaps, the album's most interesting song is "Holy Water," which finds Madonna copying what Lady Gaga was doing seven years ago (which is sort of like Madonna copying herself).
Review: Madonna acts her age on ‘Rebel Heart’ 1
  • BY DARRYL STERDAN, QMI AGENCY
    Mar 9, 2015

    Sre, there are a few duds like the car-sex metaphors of Body Shop.

    There might be one or two ballads too many. And S.E.X. becomes more ludicrous than lewd when Madonna purrs 50 shades of lines like “Oh my God, soaking wet, back and forth till we break the bed.” (Thanks for the visual there.)

    ..The disorienting Holy Water is hedonistic and randy. The Nas-guesting Veni Vidi Vici and the closing title cut are nostalgic and autobiographical, with Madonna name-checking dozens of hits in a few verses during the former.

    But even if the 74-minute album — her longest since 1992’s Erotica — might have benefitted from a judicious edit, there’s no denying that more than a few of these songs are second to none in her vast and varied catalogue. Chiefly because more frequently and honestly than ever before, they let us glimpse one of Madonna’s few private parts we haven’t already seen: Her soul.
Madonna’s ‘Rebel Heart’ bares passion, soul and sex
  • BY HOWARD COHENHCOHEN@MIAMIHERALD.COM
    03/09/2015 8:00 AM 03/09/2015 6:40 PM

    Given its length, there are problems. More explicitly than she’s allowed herself in past recordings like the comparatively tame Erotica, Madonna touches on familiar tropes of sex mingling with religion. S.E.X. is a silly, Fifty Shades-level laundry list of desired bedroom aids.

    The Kanye-assisted Holy Water, a catchy ode to cunnilingus, is more memorable. But Madonna goes over the top by likening her bodily secretions to the sacred (“Bless yourself and genuflect”) and closes with a groaner of a line claiming that Jesus, or “Yeezus,” loves her, uh, reservoir, best.

    If that’s a flaw to this otherwise impressive album, Madonna addresses it on the title track: “I spent some time as a narcissist/Hearing the others say, ‘Look at you, look at you’/Trying to be so provocative/I said, ‘Oh yeah, that was me.’”
Madonna: Rebel Heart review – bring on the basqued polemicist

    Then there’s sex, Madonna’s sine qua non. One particularly silly track compares Madonna’s vaginal fluids to holy water, maintaining the long-term narrative of Catholic-poking that runs through Madonna’s libidinous oeuvre. “Bless yourself and genuflect!” she commands on Holy Water, accompanied by ecstatic gasps and lubricious R&B; the rap is lifted from Vogue, one of Madonna’s many totemic hits.
Madonna: Rebel Heart review – braggadocio v self-examination on an album of two halves
  • by Alexis Petridis

    Thursday 5 March 2015 10.00 EST

    ...And, if nothing else, you have to admire the sheer brass cojones of a woman who tells interviewers she never deliberately tries to be provocative – “I wasn’t sitting there in my laboratory of shit-stirring going, ‘This is gonna f_ck with people’” – while promoting an album that contains a song on which Madonna compares her vaginal mucus to holy water, and suggests that Jesus might have enjoyed giving her cunnilingus: “On your knees and genuflect, Jesus loves my pu_ssy best.”

In the Today interview Madonna admits that Lourdes is totally horrified by her Mother's trashy antics. How could any mother be so selfish that she would subject her children to such humiliation by acting like such a slutty whore on the world stage?

Stripper nuns and oral sex with Jesus: Madonna's Rebel Heart tour is her filthiest yet
  • by Jack Hardwick
    September 2015

    MADONNA has kicked off her Rebel Heart tour with a bang and as you would expect it's X-Rated from the get go.

    Descending from the heavens in a giant cage, the Queen of Pop kicked off her 24 song set wrapped in a red kimono – but it wasn't long before the clothes were coming off.

    At one point the 57-year-old was joined on stage by strippers dressed as nuns and promptly began to thrust back and forth on a giant cross, opting to use the religious symbol for a spot of late night pole dancing – as you do.

    But if that offends you then you better stop reading now as what Madonna did next left us speechless.

    Ever the queen of shock tactics, Madge made her way to an altar to simulate an oral sex act with a man dressed as Jesus.

    While the incident is far too rude for us to show here, her lyrics, "Jesus loves my p***y best" give you a good idea of what was going on.

    But it wasn't a complete sex-fest, the show also included M rocking a veil in a faux wedding as well as a nod to her infamous Brit Awards fall with the inclusion of that epic Armani cape.

30 years ago this would have been scandalous. The media would be in a frenzy and Madonna would be getting interviewed tonight on the evening news. The Pope would be making public statements denouncing her. But it's not 30 years ago, it's 2015, and the media will yawn about this. Madonna has been so successful at helping drive our pop culture into the sewer that there is simply nothing left she could do (short of child sexual abuse which even she would not stoop to) that will shock us anymore. She has hit rock bottom and although that hasn't stopped her from digging she's going to find out there's nothing left to unearth. The bag of tricks that worked 20 or 30 years ago doesn't work anymore as far as getting her name into the headlines in a significant way. These religion & sex shock antics may excite her hardcore gay fan base, but to everyone else she is either offending their values or simply boring them to death with the same old same old.

...agreed that these tactics won't gain her any new notoriety or press coverage...also agree that she has done a tremendous amount to drag popular culture into the sewer our of which have crept the Mileys, Rihannas, and Lena's...

...however, it should be noted that desecrating the altar through deviant sexual acts is a key element of the Satanic black mass...until now, she's always tried to play coy or be all high-minded about her blasphemous images and behaviour, but with this schlock concert tour she's clearly coming out as the true practicing Satanist she is...

...so much for her 'spiritual conversion' and promise of a new and better Madonna back in the day...it was always just lies and deception...like her ticket sales....

Do you really think she worships Satan? Madonna has always struck me as being such a narcissist that she is incapable of worshiping anyone but herself, including Satan. I have a relative who is a true Satan worshiper and he does participate in black masses. He posts blasphemous comments where he calls Jesus all kinds of vile names. I don't sense Madonna has that same level of hostility toward religion or Christianity. If you listen to her lyrics of "Devil Pray" she is asking Mary to help rescue her from Satan. So yes she is clearly fascinated with Satan and even sees herself as under his power in some way, but I don't think she actually worships the devil otherwise why would she ask Mary to help save her from him?

I think she is just one messed up and confused woman. I think losing her mother at a young age just did a job on her psychologically. Of course I'm not making excuses for her for being such a nasty and narcissistic human being. She's not the first person to ever lose a parent at a young age, others have experienced that same kind of loss and had the strength of character to get past it and become a decent human being. Madonna did not.

...good points, MusicMan...I haven't listened to ANY of the music from RH...just on principle...those are indeed some interesting lyrics you reference from DP...and I am not close to a practising Satanist...

...I also agree that she is a true narcissist...however...

...she has consistently demonstrated blasphemous imagery throughout her career...this latest tour is the worst display yet, although her reference to 'little naked men' on crosses was pretty close...so while her pervasive narcissism might appear to obviate her being able to worship anyone but herself, her actions have spoken much louder than any outward displays of devotion ever could...

...and despite her apparent plea to the Virgin Mary to intercede for her on DP, she recently posted a grossly blasphemous Tweet featuring a traditional picture of Mary with the phrase 'b*tch, I'm the REAL Madonna'...

...if you pay attention to 'Beautiful Stranger' it can only be described as a 'love letter' to Satan...

...so, despite the fact she may not behave in the same manner as your Satan worshipping relative, I would propose that her 'faith' in the Enemy is in fact more profound in that she lives and breathes it in her music, imagery, and personal life...

...and let's face it, it explains how she got so far and so rich on such limited talent...

What Music Man said ...

Also, she seems so angry about how other things have turned out, like how much she has to cope with aging, the crumbling of the music industry, how the world might be for her kids, her fading influence in the world, certain men - Justin Timberlake included - moving on without her.

Looks like she's learned not so pleasantly that the future can be colder & more cruel than one can dream.

This author likes Madonna but at least calls out her hypocrisy. Her hypocritical actions and comments seemed more frequent back in the 1980s and early 1990s than they have since.

Today in TV History: Madonna Fought the Real Enemy on SNL
  • By Joe Reid January 16, 2016 // 11:00am

    IMPORTANT DATE IN TV HISTORY: January 16, 1993
    PROGRAM ORIGINALLY AIRED ON THIS DATE:
    Saturday Night Live, “Harvey Keitel / Madonna” (Season 18, Episode 11)

    WHY IT’S IMPORTANT:
    Madonna had a rough go of it in 1993. After a decade’s worth of pop dominance and tantalizing the country with her sexuality and gender/religious politics, it was time for the backlash, and what better occasion for it than with a coffee-table book about sex and an album called Erotica hitting the marketplace?

    Erotica ended up being Madonna’s first album that didn’t hit #1 since her debut, and Sex became an international punchline. America has always been weird about its relationship with sex in pop culture, and Madonna bore the brunt of that in 1993, and I don’t want to pile on when I think she’s gotten too much sh*t for this period in her career anyway.

    All that said: Madonna really showed her ass on Saturday Night Live in January of ’93, it just had nothing to do with sex (or Sex). Things started so well! She was phenomenal in the cold-open sketch about Bill Clinton’s inauguration, appearing as “herself,” but as a more sexualized, infantilized, Marilyn Monroe-ified version of herself, playing up her image and skewering it at the same time. She performed her cover of “Fever,” which, then as now, was aggressively good enough.

    And then for her second song, it was the underrated “Bad Girl.” At the end of the performance, Madonna pulled out an 8×10 photo of Joey Buttafucco — who was at that point a tabloid fixture for the Amy Fisher scandal — squinted at the camera, shouted “Fight the real enemy!” and tore the photo up in a mock fit of indignation.

    This was, of course, an intentional callback to Sinead O’Connor’s infamous SNL performance three months earlier, when she said those very same words while tearing up a photo of Pope John Paul II. O’Connor’s gesture was one of protest — during her song (a cover of Bob Marley’s “War”), O’Connor railed against child abuse in the Catholic Church.

    It would be another decade before the child-abuse allegations against the Church really began to take hold — check out a little movie called Spotlight about that — and it turns out that O’Connor was years ahead of that particular curve.

    This was political speech that actually carried risk with it; you can tell, because O’Connor reaped a whirlwind of sh** for it. And then Madonna went and mocked her on SNL; this was after she had told the Irish Times, “I think there is a better way to present her ideas rather than ripping up an image that means a lot to other people.”

    To reiterate: MADONNA said that Sinead O’Connor was wrong for desecrating an image that is meaningful to Catholics in order to make a political point. This Madonna:

    [snip Like A Prayer video - which offended a lot of Christians and Catholics]

    It’s by far the bullsh*ttiest thing Madonna has ever done, including the rap bridge in “American Life.” She’s still the best, but this was the worst.
