Madonna’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction
Madonna was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in its 23rd annual induction ceremony held at the Waldorf-Astoria, NYC.
She was introduced by Justin Timberlake who collaborated with her on her upcoming album Hard Candy.
“She found time to publicly kiss someone I may or may not have kissed myself – while I was in the audience. Of course, you all know who I’m talking about: Sean Penn.”
“The world is full of Madonna wanna-bes. I might have even dated a couple,” said Britney Spears’ ex. “But there is truly only one Madonna.”
Timberlake told of how he felt ill one day while working on Madonna’s new album and she asked whether he wanted a B-12 shot. He said sure, expecting a doctor to show up, but Madonna pulled out a syringe and said, “Drop ‘em.”
After he pulled his pants back up, “She looked at me and said, ‘That’s top shelf,’ and that was one of the greatest days of my life,” he said.
“Everything he said is basically true,” Madonna confirmed, “but I didn’t say ‘Drop ‘em,’ I said, ‘Pull your pants down.’ ”
Among the people she thanked, Madonna recalled a teacher who encouraged her to follow her dreams when she was only 14.
“Thirty-five years later, people are still encouraging me to believe in my dreams,” she said at the induction ceremony.
“What more could I ask for?”
Even the people who “said I was talentless, that I was chubby, that I couldn’t sing, that I was a one-hit wonder, they helped me, too,” she said. “They inspired me because they made me question myself repeatedly and pushed me to be better.”
Madonna did not perform that night but Iggy Pop performed his own versions of Madonna’s hits, “Burnin’ Up” and “Ray of Light,” gyrating shirtless on stage before jumping into Madonna’s lap in the audience.
We thought its about time to add Madonna to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame but a syringe in your handbag? Thats weird!
