I don't remember any sort of ruckus about her! I think the problem is envy, jealousy, or a feeling that Madonna isn't earning the big bucks she's getting. Take a listen to 'Money For Nothin' by Dire Straights for an example of this attitude. BTW, I almost hurt myself falling off my chair when someone posting to this group said that Tina Turner didn't use sex to sell records! It may be that that person thinks that TT has more talent than Madonna, so they ignored or missed TT's use of 'sexual promise'. Good for a laugh, though....
