Madonna Gets Mushy Over Award

The Mirror reports that Madonna showed her emotional side at the first ever UK Music Hall of Fame awards on Thursday night, where she was named one of the founding members, alongside legends Bob Marley, The Beatles, U2 and Elvis Presley. Madonna stated, “If anybody had told me when I was a little girl growing up in the Mid-West that I would be married to a Brit, be living in England and be inducted into the Music Hall of Fame I would have said ‘bollocks to that!” She singer added, “I have to thank Tracey Emin who truly is la grande fica (a colourful Italian insult), Jo Whiley, Stella McCartney and Gwyneth Paltrow, who are truly formidable women. In spite of the title of this ceremony, I think this award is more to do with my accomplishments than my fame. Just because I am famous, doesn’t mean I don’t have anything to say.”
