Okay, so: Britney and Madonna took the stage together the other night, which, you know, is cool and all, but damn. What happened to these two women?
Britney, for once, looks young and healthy and pretty (even if her outfit is more Las Vegas Caterer In Hammer Pants than Hit Me Baby One More Time). This is the girl who shaved her head and ran off to Mexico with a greasy paparazzo? She cleans up good. Madonna, on the other hand, is frightening. Soul-chillingly frightening. As they said over at Dlisted: Vadge is quickly transforming into an Asian crypt keeper who has
ventured out to steal the souls of our children and eat their
fingernails. Also, that hat.
Britney better keep her babies far, far away from Madonna, because - soul-sucking or not - that woman is, for serious, the stuff of nightmares. This picture looks for all the world like a still from some evangelical-funded horror film in which some innocent choir-girl is tricked into laying her soul on the line in a wager with the Devil, live, onstage, in Rock and Roll Hell. That kind of thing terrifies children. It sure as hell terrifies me, and I'm a grown-up atheist.
I'll probably go to my own special hell for saying this, but could we please have The English Roses Madonna back? She was disturbing, but at least she didn't make me fear for my soul.
Here's some video. Watch it if you dare:
