Tuning in to tinseltown's lighter shade of dark
  • Madge Hearts Michael – Madonna’s Tribute to the King of Pop…

    Posted on at by SBGLA! Staff   email

    Michael Jackson and MadonnaIn an interview with my good mate Victoria Newton, the ‘Queen of Pop’ has made an emotional tribute to the ‘King of Pop’ in today’s Sun newspaper…

    Speaking exclusively Madonna said: “I am so terribly sad about Michael Jackson’s death. I don’t know what artist wasn’t inspired by him.”

    She added: “To be able to do what he did at such an early age was unearthly, everybody grew up in awe of him.

    Madge revealed that she hoped to work with Michael on his planned O2 tour, humbly adding, “I don’t know what we could have done together, I could have carried his bags for him maybe.” — (No need to over-egg the pudding Madonna darling, you wouldn’t be where you are today without that superstar-sized ego!)

    The 50-year-old star, who’s success in the 80s paralleled Jackson’s, is dedicating her own upcoming concert to Michael.

    She’ll interrupt her show at the O2 Arena to perform a medley of Jacko hits and appear in the finale wearing white Gloves – as a nod to his style.

    Madonna added that Mike was a bundle of contradictions. She said, “He was a real paradox, one of the world’s greatest performers and obviously very confident on stage, but in real life he was very shy and you really felt for him.”

    RIP Michael. You will be missed.

      I could not find this interview on the Sun on-line, how do I read it?

    3. I love it!!!

    4. Can’t wait to to see Madonna tonight!

    5. Bit late now Madonna, a week ago would have been more timely!

    6. Madonna should be in the US performing on Independence day, why is she in the UK!???

      Madonna has a heart, she just doesn’t show it to the public very often. She is a great person!

    8. I thought thought Jacko and Madge didn’t get along when they met…

    9. Previous 2 commenters: Ummmm, you’re showing you’re ignorance. Why say anything? She just started her tour today, Pop2009; she wasn’t performing last week, still rehearsing. Make sense? Happy 4th: This is a European/Asian leg of her tour, which has been planned for 6 mos. That’s why she’s not in the USA. I hope that wasn’t too hard.

    10. She must think being 50 herself that it’s weird Jacko died at age too…

    11. She was brilliant last night, amazing! Words fail!!!!
