I read it in the paper this morning. Madonna has decided to delay the release of her new video, "American Life," because she feels it shows disrespect to the military at this dangerous time for them with their lives on the line. She is also afraid of how her video might be percieved and interpreted by some groups and what results might come from it. The video featured scenes of Madonna dressed in fatigues prancing on a catwalk with dancers, some transvestites, dressed in military gear. It ended with Madonna throwing a hand grenade at a smiling Bush-like character, but he caught it and used it to light a cigarette. Madonna said she is concerned about our troops and, in her own words, 'prays for them every day.' She said the video was filmed in Feb., before the war started, and is now inappropriate under the circumstances.
