Madonna recently sat down with NY Mag and talked about charity work, Tom Cruise and her new movie. You have to give it to her. She’s been a main part of pop culture for over 20 years!

On if she would “make it” in New York in 2008:
” I think it would be almost impossible. Record companies are pretty much defunct.”
On celebrities getting flak for charity work:
“It’s not just celebrities. I think people are just strangely suspicious of people who want to do something good.”
On sympathizing with Tom Cruise:
“I don’t care if people worship turtles or frogs – “if they’re good people, that’s all I care about, and he is a good person. I think he gets a raw deal, just as I think the orphans in Malawi get a raw deal, just as I think a lot of marginalized people get a raw deal.”
On being more excited about her new film than her new album:
“Yeah, actually. I have a record to promote and that’s great, but I loved going to the Berlin Film Festival – “it was the first time in my career that no one asked me a personal question. When you’re a pop star, everyone feels entitled to know what color your underpants are.”

Madonna Sticks Up For Tom Cruise
Pin It
I can NOT believe that she compared Tom Cruise to ophrans. Umm…how so again? Disgusting.
Count me in as a Cruise supporter too.
I like Tom because I dont pay attention to the rags and leave it up to my Lord to judge and condemn not me because no person is sinless.
You are judging them. Read your post again.
Huh? Comparing Tom to "marginalized" people makes no sense!
I agree with #4,5. Comparing Tom Cruise to "marginalised" people and orphans in Malawi makes no sense at all.

If I watch movies on Hollywood for role models then Hollywood is gone because there are none really. I watch movies for entertainment,escapism and amazing acting which Cruise has them in spades.
Dying to see Tropic Thunder and Valkyrie!
I LIKE TOM CRUISE….MADONNA NOT SO MUCH.
I think they are both idiots. Madonna is out to shamelessly promote herself and as for Tom Cruise…he seems a little on the arrogant side.
