Happy Birthday to the Girl That Has Been a Virgin Longer Then Anyone Cares to Remember.

Happy Birthday to the Girl That Has Been a Virgin Longer Then Anyone Cares to Remember.

It’s easy to take carping about an old woman acting young as snide dismissal, but the problems with Madonna’s attempt here go well beyond some Perez Hilton snickering. For starters, it is just an affront to the few comforts we can take in getting older for someone who so thoroughly captured the thrill of youth’s transgressions to just straight-up deny that it’s happening. Madonna could have brought some kind of no-nonsense perspective to her maturation. In fact, that kind of seems what she’s trying to do on a song like ‘I Don’t Give A,’ when she sings “I’m gonna be okay / I don’t care what the people say / I’m gonna be alright / Gonna live fast, gonna gonna live right.” Screw you, hater: I am owning who I am.
