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.

Madonna is at the Venice Film Festival to promote the movie she directed W.E. and I think she looks more like she is going to a Convent than a screening of a movie. Seriously if you put a habit on her, she could change her name to Sister Madonna. Although I highly doubt she would ever be willing to take a vow of Chasity.
Can you picture Goodfellas starring Tom Cruise and Madonna as compared to Ray Liotta and Lorriane Bracco? Well if the producers would have gotten who they originally wanted in the roles it would have been a completely different movie. According to The NY Post Irwin Winkler told GQ, “‘Tom Cruise was discussed. Marty [Scorsese, director] wanted Ray [Liotta]. Frankly I thought we could do a lot better,’ he said. But Ray’s determination eventually won them over, ‘My wife [and I] were having dinner one night in a restaurant and lo and behold, Ray Liotta came over to me. He said, ‘Look, I know you don’t really want me for it, but…’ And he sold me on the role right that evening. As for Madonna, producer Barbara de Fina remembers, ‘Madonna seemed to be in the mix. I remember that we went to see her in the play Speed-the-Plow. Marty said hello to her afterwards. Can you imagine? Tom Cruise and Madonna? But Marty can get a performance out of almost anyone.'” I have never seen Goodfellas and even I know they would be a bad choice for the roles. Almost as bad as if Bette Midler and Eddie Murphy were actually cast in Driving in Miss Daisy as the studio executives wanted.
BTW I wonder if Madonna and Cruise would have made the movie together, if they would have hooked up. It was around that time that Tom had finalized his divorce with Mimi Rogers and Madonna was on the outs with Warren Beatty. Could you imagine ToMadonna? They would have been the TomKat of their time.

When you watched Tuesday Power of Madonna episode of Glee, you were like almost everyone and wondered how much was Glee’s version like the original music video for Vogue. Well thanks to DjwickedJester, we now can see the side-by-side comparison and dang they did an amazing job! They did a better job than Matthew Fox trying to recreate his scene from the pilot of Lost in this season’s premiere of the show. Sorry I had to go there.
BTW I didn’t say this before, but who knew Jane Lynch had such a great singing voice! Gotta love Sue Sylvester!
