Madonna has a new album out in a couple of weeks, and she’s desperate to talk about how sexy she looks dancing around in her new video, or how brilliant her new iPod is. But people are much more interested about her belief in Kabbalah.
But Madonna doesn’t understand why her Kabbalah following attracts such strong attention, saying that it would be less controversial "if I joined the Nazi Party".
Madonna (CDs) is the world’s highest-profile follower of Jewish spin-off
religion Kabbalah. She also turned her husband Guy Ritchie onto Kabbalah, and then
he made that shitty Revolver film about it. So Kabbalah could be seen as a bad
thing. But Madonna isn’t having any of that kind of talk. Speaking to
The New York Daily News, she blasted:
"[People ask] ‘what do you
mean you study the Torah
if you’re not Jewish?’, ‘What do you mean you pray to God and wear sexy
clothes? We don’t understand this’. It frightens people. So they try to
denigrate it or trivialise it so that it makes more sense."
Madonna, fresh from calling Planet Earth ‘The Beast’ and haranguing everybody’s "wicked behaviour", added that:
"We’re all in a cult. In this cult we’re not encouraged to
ask questions. And if we do ask questions, we aren’t going to get a
straight answer. The world’s in the cult of celebrity."
And Madonna had this to say about her fellow 1980s throwback Tom Cruise:
"I
find it very strange that it’s [Scientology] so disturbing to people.
It’s not hurting anybody. If it makes Tom Cruise happy, I don’t care if
he prays to turtles. And I don’t think anybody else should."
So
Madonna has railed against the world and said that the Nazi Party is
less controversial than Kabbalah. And there’s still 13 more days before
her album comes out. What’s the barmy old lady going to say next?
