Singer praises film during her New York concert Wednesday. mtv.com Jennifer Vineyard
Michael Moore has got Madonna's vote - she urged fans during her concert Wednesday night at New York's Madison Square Garden to go see his provocative new film, "Fahrenheit 9/11."
In what seemed to be a genuine, unscripted moment, the singer told the audience - which included the filmmaker himself - that she had just seen the film and that it had really affected her. Moore had screened the film to a crowd of celebrities and members of the press on Monday at New York's Ziegfeld Theater.
"I don't think I've ever cried so hard at a movie in my life," Madonna said during a break in her performance. "And I'm sure I still have a lot to learn from it."
Madonna had originally tried to create a statement against the war in Iraq herself, via her "American Life" video (see "Madonna Defends Her Violent 'American Life' Video"), which was first edited and then withdrawn altogether because she had feared a backlash (see "Madonna Yanks Controversial 'American Life' Video").
The idea survives in her live set, when she flashes stark images of war on various screens behind her, and her dancers dress like soldiers during the performance of that song. She also covers John Lennon's peace song "Imagine" during her set.
Madonna also acknowledged Moore's presence and thanked him for making the film, which opens in New York on Wednesday and nationwide on June 25.
"Not only is it inspiring and educating, but it's proof that people can make a difference, that we can make a difference," she said. "So, Michael, I know you're out there tonight, and I just wanted to publicly thank you for sticking your neck out, for going against the establishment, for giving us the hope."
Madonna's a whore. That's why she's a liberal. She's a Jew these days and and British one at that. Of all the people to come along in popular culture she's by far the most insufferable. WHEN will she shut up, especially now, with her fake English accent---she of the working class, why isn't her English accent working class?
So the fake Brit fake talent fake Hebrew worships at the alter of some jewdoo cult and sings imagine there's no heaven. No contradiction there unless she's saying "I wish I didn't have to be Jewish". There's not as real Jew alive who thinks there is or should be "nothing to kill or die for", or "no religion too"
Lennon's song was a nice bit of early 70's liberal argle bargle containing sentiments that he didn't really believe. His wife was a cult leader with no cult. Liberals worship at the cult of showbiz and use showbiz to acquire their values and opinions. Only in Liberalism could some filthy Italian chick from Michigan be somebody important.

You must just love the sound of your voice as you read these screeds aloud in your bathroom. TJ, the great orator!
When a pop star turns a concert into a conservative Republican political rally--that's news. When a pop star turns a concert into a liberal Democrat political rally--that's the showbiz merely being the organism that it is: the propaganda arm of the Democrat party. To make news of that would be to imply that there's something wrong with disguising the liberal agenda as entertainment for young people. She's more dupe than whore, actually.

Hold the phone! I think the conservatives have a long history of paid companions.

I think Salvabore has the monopoly on anti-Semitism in rmb.

Actually, she ISN'T. She grew up with ballet lessons and other extras in Rochester, MI (mostly). She pretends her life was rougher than it was, in the tradition of Mick Jagger and so many others.

Ever hear of Jim and Tammy Bakker? Ever hear of the money George Harrison gave away? For that matter, lots of celebs you'd consider flaming radical lefties care a lot about causes that may not make them more popular, and they put their $$$ where their mouths are. (Richard Gere and Tibet. The many feminists such as Whoopi Goldberg & Cybill Shepherd who came to DC for the March for Women's Lives this past April.)

Whaaaaat, now you checked out her bathwater? And what's your problem with Michigan?

You and Sharp should get along very well together in your padded cell.
The pathetic Australian, I think he works harder cutting and pasting my posts and digging up my past than with anybody else here. In a way, I'm honored.

you're honored that your posts to pedo.sex newsgroups are still around?
I'm honored that you keep my words and my thoughts on your hard drive permanently. I'm honored that you could killfile me but you just can't find it in yourself to miss what I say. I'm honored that you go to bed at night, turn off the light, then turn it on again, get out of bed, turn on your computer, go to rmb, then really zing me good. Oh, God, you wound me.
