Back in 1983, Madonna burst on to the scene with her song Borderline. The song made her Internation star, so you would think that she would never destroy it and leave it just as it has always been.
Yesterday, on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon she performed her first huge hit and it was horrendous. She slowed it down and lowered the accompanying music to the point that you could hear her singing voice. There are a lot of things that Madonna is as a performer and having a great singing voice is not one of them. She was able to hide that fact throughout her career behind the music, but here you can hear it. Which I would’ve forgiven for her, if she didn’t take all the joy out the song.
I actually listened to this performance all the way through, hoping it would get better but it never did. It had me losing my mind half way through. I kept praying she was going to do what Ike and Tina Turner did with Proud Mary. You know start off slow and finish it off fast, but she never did.
I don’t know why she did with this Borderline. I’ve seen her in concert a few times, and she has been great. But this intimate performance sucked more than well, you know where I am going with that.
I get it, she is ageing and she wants the song to age with her. Then why is she so desperate to look, act and dress young? But that is a whole other rant.
So Madonna, please leave your old hits along and just screw up your new songs.
Oh and what is up with her stealing Gwen Stefani’s fashion sense.
Finally, you can listen to her original version of Borderline below to cleanse yours ears.
It has not been a good few months for ABC. First, their Head of Entertainment was replaced midseason. Then they announced that Michael Strahan was leaving Live with Kelly and Michael to join Good Morning America, and his co-host was blindsided by the news. Kelly Ripa was so upset about it that she went on strike for a week. Finally, ABC announced that they were not renewing Stana Katic’s contract, and there were a lot of rumors that her co-star Nathan Fillion and her did not get along. Fans took the internet and let it be known they would not watch the show without her. ABC did the only thing they could do, they cancelled the procedural in the 19th hour.
Just when it seemed like their troubles were over, comes an interview that was heard all over the World Wide Web today. The Real O’Neal’s Noah Galvin, who plays a recently out teen in a very Catholic world on the sitcom, sat down with Vulture and was brutally honest with them. He said that David Blaine “turned out to be the weirdest f*cking dude.” Told fans who Tweet him their problems, “I don’t have time to be your f*cking soothsayer.” On Colton Haynes recently coming out in 3 page Entertainment Weekly article, “That’s not coming out. That’s fucking pussy bullshit.” He said that Eric Stonestreet is “playing a caricature of a caricature of a stereotype of stereotype on Modern Family.” He talked about a guest star, who he says flirted with him so he asked the unknown actor if he was Gay. Galvin’s reaction to the actor telling him he didn’t know, “I’m more like, go with the flow. And I was like, Shut the f*ck up. Get out of my face with your wishy-washy bullsh!t answer. You’re a f*cking f@ggot. Like, I know you are. You know you are. Stop beating around the bush. Just go make out with me in my dressing room.” There is so much more.
One element was so slanderous, that Galvin issued its own apology for his comments and Vulture pulled the quote.
They say that there is no such thing as bad press, but this is a case where it is bad, very very bad. Here is an actor that no one knows, on a show that barely anyone watches and he p!ssed off all the wrong people. ABC now has 3 months to right his wrongs, but it wasn’t a headache they needed or wanted after all the other ones they have been going through.
Plus, they still have to make The View better, find a co-host for Kelly, figure out how to do better in the ratings and keep Shonda Rhimes happy. All of this controversial stuff going on and she is not part or it. She is slipping, where are Isaiah Washington, Katherine Heigl and Columbus Short when she really needs them? What’s next a Dancing with the Stars scandal? Maybe one for The Bachelor?
You know what? ABC needs to not only worry about their ratings, they also have to worry about their employees. Both seem to need a lot of work. Although they do have the best new drama of the Fall.

Before Ernie Hudson was afraid of no ghosts in Ghostbusters, he had a lot of other things to be afraid of in The Human Tornado. He looks the same now as he did when he was 30 in that 1976 movie.
It has been a while since Comedy Central has Roasted someone, and they finally announced who their next Brat is going to be. Nope, they are not going to Roast Justin Bieber again, instead they are going to Roast someone who’s more than twice his age. The original Brat…Packer, Rob Lowe.
The pretty boy with the eyes said, “What a thrill to once again be following in Justin Bieber’s footsteps. I look forward to a night of hilarious jokes recycled from the James Franco Roast. I would like to express my gratitude to the members of my family who have passed away and therefore will not have to endure what promises to be a very special evening.”
As special as the evening he had with the teenage girl in Atlanta? I hope the Dais can bring up his 1988 sex tape. Not only because it is the best celebrity one out there, but because it is the best thing for them to go off on. Well that and he had not 1, not 2, but 3 shows cancelled this year.
When it comes to who will be Roasting him, I hope they get his brother Chad Lowe, his former TV brother Fred Savage, John Stamos who gets mistaken for him and his ex Melissa Gilbert to name a few. Who do you want to see up their ripping him a new one?
