Madonna Won't Wear Muslim Bridal Dress In New Video Over "Fears For Her
Safety".
Via Contact Music:
Madonna has decided against wearing a Muslim bridal dress, a combination
of a traditional Iraqi bridal veil and a US soldier's uniform, in her new
music video after being convinced by her advisers to give the outfit a miss
for her own safety.
Madonna has decided against wearing a Muslim bridal dress in her new music
video over fears for her safety.
The 54-year-old singer was planning to don a 'Terror Bride' outfit - a
combination of a traditional Iraqi bridal veil and a US soldier's uniform -
in the video for upcoming single 'Superstar' as a statement against
oppression against women and war, but her advisers convinced her to ditch
the political stunt because of the outrage it would be likely to cause.
A source said: "Madonna had the outfit ready to go. She was really proud
of it and said it was her 'Terror Bride' costume.
"She had paraded around in it and said she was going to wear it in her
next music video.
"At first when people started telling her it was madness she just brushed
it off.
"But when they mentioned that her actions could put her life at risk she
decided to ditch it from her video and certainly won't be wearing it on
stage."
