No Rock And Roll Fun

SHE'S GETTING ABOUT, ISN'T SHE?: And up pops Madonna again, like a wack-a-mole on a book tour, to slag off Pop Idol. She doesn't like the genre, because it suggests that even a half-talented ugly-stick can have a number one ("it's part of an obsession with 'other people's failures or heartaches.'")

Yes, why would anyone want to watch people having their dreams crushed on Pop Idol when, instead, they could watch one of Mr. Madonna's films with people having their kneecaps crushed instead. Much healthier.
