I would imagine she's 'yang on steroids.'BTW, Travelin' Ed, this tune isn't that interesting, I'd agree....but it has nice production and a catchy chorus.

I think most of them are and they use these kinda videos to create hype and interest.I'd agree there, Stephen. The song is just warmed over Madonna, although I like the music in the background...it's catchy. A lot of artists who go for the sex factor in their videos do tend to make boring music. It seems to be more about image with them and less about the music. It depends on taste as well....if you like pop, the music jazzes you. I'm not into pop that much, but each to his own. I've never been a fan of Madonna's, but I'll admit I liked "Vogue" and "I'll Remember." Her sexuality was toned down a lot in "I'll Remember"....that was just a beautiful song to me. Of course, "Vogue" wasn't as toned down, but it was a great song.

Yeah, I can't see Madonna doing something like this ten years down the road....that thought is scary, and plus, she should stop giving Kaballah (sp?) lessons to star baseball players too. Have fun at the gym...and I'm sure you look just as sexy in your sweats, and plus, they are comfy!

Seinfeld had a routine where he suggested someone develop a do-it-yourself home liposuction machine... You could woof down a double cheeseburger and fries, connect for a few hours while channel surfing and be OK... As far as the eyes, I guess the Joan Rivers Do-It-Yourself Face Lift System is coming out soon... Casey

I hate when I'm s'posed to know someone but got no clue... producer maybe... looks vaguely familar...I think in that genre the line between suck and greatness is very thin....Thought it was Britney.... Me personally I always thought funny was sexy.....The chubby nun in that Whoopie movie.... Kathy something.... always thought she was sexy... great smile... looks like she would be a great girl.... comfortable in her skin....Funny story.... when I was bartending in my youth in Bermuda I was serving a family of 5 lunch one day.... arrive at the table to take a drink order and I get to one of the daughters.... strawberry blonde... not a stunner or anything.... no makeup....freckles on her checks.... smiled at me with a mouth full of braces and I was smitten on the spot!!!! It was so obvious that the parents giggled their way through lunch as I fell all over myself like an idiot... everytime I looked at her I forgot the reason I was at the table.... never got a chance to ask her out but I will never forget her.... Wife thinks I'm a freak....I have never been a fan of the more skin is hot POV..... exposing stomachs with the short tees has got to go away!!!!I think sexiness comes from within, not the skin (hummmm, might use that).Wish more artist would follow the Sting example.... develop their art as they get older.... don't just keep repackaging the same crapolla....My 2c.... Peace, GeoYou know, I appreciate beauty like anyone....there's nothing wrong with being 'conventionally' beautiful, but I agree, sexiness comes from within. I think Helen Mirren is just gorgeous.....she let herself age gracefully, and her beauty shines through. Her eyes just sparkle, and her laugh lines and crow's feet give her so much character....her face says, "this is a life well lived.' Society seems to be redefining what beauty is lately, and that's good for us all. You don't have to have your face lifted and your tummy tucked to be a vibrant human being.Not that I'm knocking Madonna....each to his own, but for me personally, I think embracing older age is the way to go, and Madonna is fighting gravity, that's just the reality of the situation.
