Dr. Laura: Britney Spears Trying To ‘Out-Madonna’ Madonna
Conservative radio talk show host Dr. Laura Schlessinger was on ‘Larry King Live’ on Friday to promote her new book and also weigh in on Britney Spears’ wedding to childhood pal Jason Alexander on January 3rd. Asked why Britney made the marriage move, Schlessinger said, “Well, I think she’s trying to outdo Madonna or out-Madonna Madonna. And I just think it’s sad because she’s a young, attractive woman with a lot of talent and, you know, has sacrificed dignity for all the celebrity and the money and all that. And I always find that sad because it’s not a good role model.” She added, “Interestingly enough, the only facts that I got on that, that I read on the air– because I got a ton of things — everybody was horrified. What I got on the air was from a guy who introduced himself as a gay Jewish guy. And he has a partner for 14 years, and because he respects religion and the extended family with the children, they’ve decided not to marry to preserve what he said was the true calling of marriage, which is the joining of a man and a woman. And although they’d want to be married, he felt religiously this was wrong. OK, along comes Britney Spears. He has all these nieces and nephews who come to him and say, Well, then I guess you can married for — you know, they’re little kids. So you just get married overnight? And so he was raging that here she has this ability to be married, to have this sacrament, and she denigrated it. And I thought that was an interesting juxtaposition of points.” Read more.
