Why do many people hate Madonna so much?

Dear Sir/Madam,Although I do not hate Madonna like the majority of the world's population, I am not a fan of disco/dance music. Do not get me wrong, I think she is very talented, but her disco style is the only thing that I have against her.However, let me explain. I cannot see anything wrong with Madonna at all. She is very liberal and I am all for liberty. She is way out but so are many other artists. She is not the first pop star to star nude in movies and magazines nor is she the first one to expose her navel because during the late sixties and early seventies women exposing their navels then were a fashion trend.She has also donate money to charities and given gifts to other several celebrities such as Oprah Winfrey and Rosie O'Donnell. She went to Zambia and rescued and adopted this African baby and that caused an uproar! Other celebrities do the same thing and do not get heckled in the press like her. I it was not for her that baby would died in that orphanage back in Zambia.Also several on the television network panels were making her a scapegoat for Britney Spear's meltown just because she was seen on the MTV award kissing each other.

alightinthedarkne ss	Posted Feb 5th, 2009 at 5:58PM people always hate what they don't understand. However i agree, she has become annoying. I liked her much better in the 80's. I think she struggles too much with herself and who she is, REALLY. She tries to be real, and hides nothing. Yet she puts on a fake British accent and seems to live through Britney. She is definitely different! Rated: +1Vote for this!
pleasegivemeasmil e21	Posted Feb 5th, 2009 at 5:58PM Pure jealousy...no but seriously I think she is the archetype of a FREE woman who is sexual and a lot of people don't like it. She is a old pop icon too, and people also love to get back at famous people when they're down. Actually I have no opinion about Madonna as a person, but that's why I think people hate her Rated: +1Vote for this!
HideousBeast	Posted Jan 22nd, 2009 at 4:37PM I hate Madonna because she's no longer an artist, but tries to shock people. I don't like shocking people for the sake of shocking people. If you shock people in the course of your art, so be it, but don't just try to be shocking. Rated: +1Vote for this!
brimliner	Posted Jan 22nd, 2009 at 12:28AM Maybe she just flaunts her "freedom" and sex a little bit too much? Sure, that's what made her famous in the 1980's. And it's hip when you're 23 years old and the year is 1985. But when is she going to grow up already? She's an old lady! The Britney Spears connection has much deeper roots than an appearance on MTV. My understanding is that Modonna's record company (one of the companies Modanna owns) basically "bought out" Britney and created the Britney monster that we now know. Some would argue that Madonna was/is living vicariously through Britney. Madonna might be better respected, if she would face the truth and try to make peace with her aging self. But instead, she uses Britney to try to keep her illusion alive. And, like most showbiz, it IS all just an illusion. Rated: +1Vote for this!
lilyiam07	Posted Feb 5th, 2009 at 5:58PM People need to stop hating what they do not know or understand. I LOVE MADONNA because she is outspoken and demands respects. Not with barking or fighting, but with her mind. She is a strong woman and if anything I have learned from this woman (besides my mom) is take no crap and go after what you want. I'm not sexually free as she is, but one day I hope to explore that avenue with my lucky husband. Is she wrong for her exploits? Thank God I can say that's between her and the Judges of judges!! So for the haters all I can type is some people don't like the few that are too proud and/or too free. Live and let live. And Pray. Rated: +1Vote for this!

dotan	Posted Feb 5th, 2009 at 5:58PM I don't hate her and it does notmean I love her. But her beauty confuses me. She looks younger than her age. She eats much beans and vegetables,playing sports much. That is what I think every day -how to make us always younger than our ages. Rated: +1Vote for this!
georshar	Posted Feb 5th, 2009 at 5:58PM we generally tend to hate or dislike people who do things that we cant... think about it.. its true, somewhere inside us we want to be free but for whatever reasons we arent, either family or upbringing etc.. can be lots of reasons.. and we basically dont have the guts so when we see someone like madonna then all those negative feelings come out...

swan2857	Posted Feb 5th, 2009 at 5:58PM First of all Madonna is 50 not 60. She is a strong woman with her own convictions and beliefs. Some people don't like strong women, they are considered a *****. I personally like her, because she went from a nobody to a superstar and did it practically on her own. She let nothing get in her way. Yes she has been controversial and was a free thinker when it came to sex and the way she advertised it, but that was one of her ways to peak peoples interest and to keep her persona going.

highlandgirl	Posted Feb 5th, 2009 at 5:58PM Well,I find Madonna inspirational.Since she had singing lessons her voice has improved.Her stage performance is very entertaining and her songs are uplifting. I particularly like Hung Up and its brilliant to dance to. Rated: +1Vote for this!
pickynancy1234	Posted Jan 22nd, 2009 at 2:58PM Well, she used to be great! She was herself and proud of it. But in recent years she has become pretty obnoxious. Prime example, she moved to England and shortly after she started to speak with an obviously fake accent. She flaunts too much now. I guess that she always flaunted, but in her earlier years it seemed much more sincere. Rated: +1Vote for this!

overman	Posted Jan 22nd, 2009 at 4:38PM Being provocative is for the young. At some point, it is best to slow your roll or let it go. When you partly base a career on shocking people, it eventually gets old and people start to resent you for trying too hard. In my opinion, she got a hell of a lot of mileage out of it!
