Madonna is doing the press rounds for her film W.E. and one of the outlets she talked to was MTV. The interviewer asked her, “Do you still have ambition as an actress?” The woman who starred in one of the worst movies ever made (if not the worst) shook her head and said, “No.” So he asked “why not?” and she responded with “I like directing better.” adding, “It’s my voice. Especially if I write it. If I write it and I direct it, then it’s my voice. If I am the actor, I’m just a pawn.” I wonder if she will change her voice after her first feature film doesn’t do well. According to Box Office Mojo the movie has only made $284,984 in The UK since Jan. 20th to today, in fact it only made an average of $1,657 in 172 theaters it is playing in there. Ouch.
As someone who sat through all of Swept Away, I am so happy she gave up acting because a movie like that should never ever be repeated. That movie was so bad, I wish I was a Razzie member that year just so I could vote for it for every category even if it wasn’t applicable. I would not even wish for my worst enemy to see it.
Madonna used to have the scariest muscular arms because she used to work out a lot. Today when Anderson Cooper asked her how much she works out on his daytime talk show, and she said she had to cut down because she has four kids and five jobs. To her cutting down means working out for 90 minutes 5 days a week, but to me that is just the opposite.
So what are those five jobs she says she has? Singer, “actress”, failed director, clothing designer and ???. Maybe now that W.E. bombed at the box office, she will be able to add another half hour to exercise regimen?
You know what I think is interesting when she had those muscular arm, she loved to wear short sleeves and show them off. Now that her arms probably have more meat on them, she is always seems to be wearing long sleeves. I wish she would do the opposite instead.

Madonna attended a screening of her movie W.E. that actually got an Oscar nomination and her dress needed two helpers. Even though the film got a nom for Costume Design, it looks likes the gown she wore will not get any type of awards. I mean when a dress requires someone to manage the train and another one to fluff the sleeves, it becomes a loser in my book.
The trailer for Madonna’s much panned W.E. is out and now you can see why the critics have been bashing it. It reminded me of Swept Away and I think that was one of the worst movies ever made. I guess she got her Guy Ritchie’s directing skills in the divorce?
The last time Madonna made a good movie was…yeah even she can’t remember when that was. Well last week the singer turned actress turned director turned singer bashed an innocent flower known as hydrangeas and today she made an apology video to that beautiful blossom. Finally after years of laughing at her, we finally have the opportunity to laugh with her. She should try doing that more often.
BTW I am still not over how bad Swept Away was, that movie was so painful I was begging to be Swept Away.
