teehee it was really good, started off a bit slow but by the 2nd half I was loving her. Found the Kaballah stuff really interesting, I want to know more! And how ridiculously well brought up and CUTE are her kids! Can't wait for Thurs and the epic 2+hr docu! There's sooooo much good TV on this week! I was hoping she'd confess her undying love for GA as well as Goldfrapp but we got bloomin Crapplay and the Shite Stripes!

I thought Dermot looked uncomfortable all the way through - his body langauge was very closed, he was sitting way back in his seat with his arms folded - although M wasn't really giving much away... and I'm not really buying this new and improved I'm-so-much-nice-than-I-used-to-be Madonna. She's trying very hard to radiate some kind of warmth and it's just not happening. And as for what sh'es listening to - Coldplay, Goldfrapp and White Stripes - hmmm, kinda obvious failsafe choices. Now if she had said she loved Girls Aloud, that woulda been something different, she'da gone right up in my estimation - I'm not convinced she ever actually listens to music (or does very much) for pleasure.
I'm loving the album though, in a big way.

I'm not convinced she ever actually listens to music (or does very much) for pleasure. Actually, I've thought that for a while too. Her answers to the inevitable "what are you listening to?" question are always just a little too obvious for the queen of pop - like she's just picked up the latest copy of NME and checked to see which bands are being mentioned the most. Before I suffer a Frapp attack though - she's been snapparazzi-ed out and about with the Goldfrapp CD, so she's at least telling the truth about that. Ha ha!

I thought it was a terrible interview, for many reasons, but here are a couple.
1. Who thought it was a good idea to get Dermot O'Nobrain to interview her? He interviewed as if he'd just got in from the pub after ten pints of Stella. His questions were predictable, badly constructed, and quite rude. Why did he keep insulting her? He even called her a cow. Maybe it was nerves but I just thought he really fucked it up. He seemed tot alk about himself more than he talked about her. Channel 4 has a whole slew of interviewers that could have done the job better. Hell, I'd even have preferred to see June Sarpong do it. I mean: 'How do you like London, Madonna?' Wow, what a question! She's hardly going to say 'It's a fucking dump, Derm.', is she?
2. Madonna's just one of the most awkward interviewees ever. I don't know why she puts herself through it; she clearly doesn't enjoy it and she comes across as a humourless, defensive crone. Even though Dermot's questions weren't all that, the nonstop rolling of eyes and batting back of any questions that might have been remotely interesting just make her look like the difficult harridan we know she really is. Who is really buying the 'I'm now unselfish' schtick she's pulling at the moment? It wasn't convincing when she was wandering round in her 'Ray of Light' designer hippie phase and it certainly isn't now.
That said, this interview wasn't as excruciating as both Jonathon Ross ones and the magnoila wallpaper disaster that was Terry Wogan' indepth grilling.
DISCLAIMER: I'm actually a Madonna fan, but this and the documentary are a bridge too far.

Dermot O'Nobrain - tee hee. I see what you did there. I didn't see the interview, but I've spotted an opportunity to pour hatred upon the tiny-eyed goon, and I must take it. Simon Amstell would have been a good choice to talk to any pop star, but perhaps Channel 4 thought he wouldn't perform the amount of arse-licking required to secure the interview.

like she's just picked up the latest copy of NME and checked to see which bands are being mentioned the most. Either that or she has been paying far too much attention to Jo Whiley. Still, at least she appears to be over her Richard Ashcroft fixation. I think that what she really ought to do is stop playing safe and try to be photographed being dragged out of a grotty dive bar at three in the morning by Iggy Pop with sick down her trousers.
