Don't buy Madonna hydrangeasWe can learn a valuable lesson from last week’s Venice Film Festival: Madonna really, really does not like hydrangeas. It'd probably be wise not to buy her any. And thanks to a fan’s YouTube upload, we never have to make that mistake. During a press conference for her upcoming movie “W.E.,” Madge was handed a hydrangea bouquet. It went downhill from there.
Smiling, she accepted the flowers, telling the fan, “Thank you, thank you.” Then Madge stowed the purple blossoms and turned to the woman sitting next to her (just off camera) to vent about the horrible offense. "I absolutely loathe hydrangeas,” she says in what sounds like a British accent. “He obviously doesn't know that." So do we believe Madonna hates hydrangeas that much, or are our legs being pulled? Apparently, she's really not a fan. Madonna's rep tells CNN: “She’s entitled to like any flower she wants and she didn’t want to hurt the feelings of the hydrangeas of the world...No disrespect to the hydrangeas lovers of the world but she prefers different types of flowers.” But hey, maybe she was just cranky about the reviews for “W. E.” Luckily, Madonna hasn’t quit her day job – she told reporters in Venice that her upcoming album should be out this spring, according to Billboard. "I've started a little bit of work in the studio," she said in an interview with Swedish Sveriges Television. |

Its not about the flower, its about the ungrateful response.
Why the hell is the news like this?
She does have the right to dislike whatever she wants, however this is a fan who took the time to do so.
B&*%^ you better not complain if I give you something.
Who cares about the flowers.. she didn't like it.. so what? all the people here who talks bad about Madonna are probably unhappy with their lives. she's still amazing whatever she does. i would love to see her throwing the flower on his face.. Lol i won't be surprised. Love Madonna

So what she don't like hydrangas! I actually think that people who go out of their way for celebritys are stupid!
cause we are living in a hydranges world and i am a material hydranges..
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
important news flash! did anyone know that shanghai surprise was originally suppose to be called hydrangea surprise..
baaaaaaaaaaawaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaawaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaa
Lighten up, folks. She didn't kill anybody. http://www.gurukalehuru.com
i'm burning up..burning up for your hydrangea ..BAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAA
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
then there is her other hit record madonna made yrs ago i think goes like this: i'm burning up..burning up for your hydrangea..BAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAA
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
we only got 4 hydrangneas to save the world.....BAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
WAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAABAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAA
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
this hydragenas "situation" is really annoying..
The point of the "sarcastic" video response she made, I assume, is to tell us all that we are making a big deal of her reaction and that she has the right to like roses instead.
But that's not the point. It's not about which flower you should or shouldn't like – it's about being arrogant and ungrateful, and that's the whole story. And now she's even using the incident for some extra marketing. I don't find her youtube video funny at all.
Give her a bunch of boys under 25! That might please her for sure!
Madonna sucks!
i think we should all my t-shirts that say material girl on them–she just never stops
she does not own the name material girl - here we go again with madonna...i can call myself and my mother material girls too.....here i go again.....
BAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAA
oh yea forgot to mention...how do you loathe a flower..
BAAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
WAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAABAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAA
Wow, I didn't know Madge could be so snooty. Saw a funny parody of her snobbish remarks at the Venice Film Festival, by the way. http://youtu.be/RhyJhJYBTlY
Who the F U C K is "Madonna"???? Are you guys, for whatever reason, talking about the 50 something, over the hill, crazy broad who used to sing? My question now is 'Why is anybody even bringing this woman up anymore?" she's done. finished. and VERY passe...get over it already..
iis her spokesperson British or From Detroit?
BAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAA
HAAAAAAAAAAAA
Perhaps her rep could make a list of what Madonna likes and dislikes, so W.E. wouldn’t watch such “loathing” incident again.
Good One Omar....haaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
..BAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABBBBBBBBBBBBWAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
She should realize that it's won't be long before NO One will bring her flowers....... Yesterdays hasbeen.......
I FEEL LIKE I JUST GOT HOME AND I FEEL...AND I FEEL LIKE I JUST HOME AND FEEEELLLLL AHHHH...-
SEND HER 4,000 HYDRANGEAS TO HER HOME..BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAAAA
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Madonna is such a silly person...she always was...ignore her.
did she say she will not apologize about her hydranges comment in detroit or british ...BAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Wow, Madonna. I actually liked you until this incident! Even idolized you a bit! But now, you seem like a pathetic FAKE Brit who has absolutely no manners! I mean, c'mon! You're from freakin Michigan..smh..
That wasn't very kaballah of her. She needs to retire. I just "loathe" her acting and movies! And we thought what she did after Kevin Kostner left when he made the "your show was neat" on Truth or Dare was bad...She's been around long enough that history repeated itself! Then again, what would you expect from here after all these years of her surrounding herself with deviant, superficial, snootie gay men?
..oh, and how could I forget that she befriended that fat, dusgusting slob, Rosie O'DOnnell! Most likely, where Madona also got her Bad Manners" from! She's aged so bad in the last year....this cougar should be more polite...alot of kids under 20 say, Madonna who? since her garbage-dump replacement Lady Gaga has taken over Pop music!
Meekchop-You go girl!!! I'm with you on this one.Lets all focus our energy on madonna for a few weeks doing nothing but showering her in our minds with nothing but love and hydrangeas. I bet we will be reading of her death by self inflicted gun shot wound if we are effective.!!!!!
Hmmmmm....interesting approach JesusPW but I think you have it backwards.In order to eliminate all the negative energy that madonna creates we are to think of her with smiles on our faces as we envision golden light and showers of hydrangea flowers blossoming out of every orifice of her being.At least that's the way I learned it at kabbalah camp one summer when iI was a young boy.I don't know...maybe the rules are different when you are dealing with someone from Michigan?
Clearly she doesn't know the meaning of "gracious." Maybe she's forgotten that her fans are the ones that got her where she is today? No comment was necessary. Let it go Madonna.
can't be gracious when you've fallenfrom grace! She's a lovely role model to her biological and adopted children, huh? I bet manners run rampant in that household! Madonna, just because you run around with 20 year old boys don't be you have to act like one!
i think we should all direct our negative energy toward her for the next 2 weeks.This will dissolve all her negative energy and fake kabbalahist voodoo that she learned from her fake rabbi that bilked her out of millions for a school in africa that never happened.We need to restore a small imbalance in the psychic world which people like madonna are creating with their grey brotherhood witchcraft.I guarantee a positive result for the world if we just focus all of our negativity on her for the next 2 weeks. Please join me and so many others in this canpaign to cleanse the world of demopns. Next stop-Michele Backman!
don't waste your time or lose your day job.. she's Madonna, more powerful, more rich and most famous.... nothing you or your followers can achieve... stick to the picketing, lol....
back from my meeting....HOW DOES HOLIDAY SOUND IN DETROIT/BRITISH STYLE...
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAA
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Perhaps she would have been happier if he threw a shoe at her. What an ungrateful beast. And if she pumps anymore botox into her face she's going to look like a Geisha girl!
She hated his flowers because he was probably over 20...My my my, hasn't this former garbage digger, homeless person gotten GRAND!
we should ALL SEND her hydrangeas to here next event!!! lol haha wat an ungrateful old hag!! never in my life have i ever seen a photoshop photo as great as hers !!! 🙂
And exactly why do they call this old bag Madge?
THEY CALL HER BRITISH! – BAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
WOW. I am a HUGE Madonna fan but even I think what she did is very disrespectul and flat out RUDE. She would have been better off just accepting them with a polite smile and a simple thank you. If you have nothing NICE to say, it is best to not say anything at all..!!! Come on Madonna, you are way classier than that. Maybe Madonna needs a lesson in manners from Lady Gaga....!!!
that was pretty unclassy...just thank the guy, deal with the flower for all of 20 minutes and have your assistant ditch it when all is done. pretty simple
Who's this Madonna person and why does she using a fake British accent?
I HAVE TO RUN TO A MEETING...ITS JUST THAT WHEN I HEAR HER DETROIT BRITISH ACCENT IT JUST MAKES THINK CAN SHE SING GET INTO THE GROOVE WITH A BRITISH ACCENT...
BAAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Well, the critics felt the same about her new movie as she feels about hydrangeas (absolutely loathed it), so I guess it's even-steven.
ACCENT? BAAAAWAAAAHAAAAWAAAAHHHHAAAAAAAAABBBBBAAAAAAAWAAAAAAHAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DID I MENTION THE ACCENT:
WE LOATHE MADONNA TOO!
THAT FAKE BRITISH ACCENT? THE FIRST TIME I HEARD IT I COULD NOT STOP LAUGHING
I just loathe Madonna's face accent....It was at it's worst in that movie "The next best thing!" I use to love madonna inthe 80's 90s–but she so seems desprate for attention trying to befriend Britney Spears, working with Timerland (and creae the WORST Madonna album ever to be recorded), divorcing her husband and running around with her saggy ol' cougar self with foriegn men almost the same age as her daughter Lourdes! She's nothing but an aging diva added to the collection of superficial celebrities gay men try to emulate...how sad indeed!
ANYBODY SEE HER SURGICAL FACE...SHE LOOKS AWFUL
I THINK WE'VE ALL HAD ENOUGH OF MADONNA AND HER DRAMA FOR OVER 20 YRS NOW....DON'T EVEN PAY ATTENTION TO HER...
who cares about madonna..she has nothing to do all day.
wow people are taking this way too seriously. if someone gave you something you absolutely didn't like, what're you gonna do? i'm pretty sure she was still grateful to receive somethign from a fan, and so what if she made a comment that she doesn't like hydrangeas. she meant no disrespect to the guy who gave it to her, but it's just a fact that she doesn't like them. everyone who says madonna needs to get over herself needs to get over themselves.
Then give it to someone who will appreciate what you do not like, it's that simple. Being gracious and appreciating the kind and thoughtful gestures of others is irrespective of social class, fame or fortune. There but by the grace of God (or whatever deity/presence in which you believe) go you, Madge. Get over yourself.
I'm glad that all of you criticizing Madonna for her comment have never been given a present you didn't like. How fortunate you all are.
You know, I have been given presents I didn't like more than once. In all occasions, I thanked the people who have given them to me. And I have complained about it to someone else, I have made remarks on a certain present someone gave me that I did not like at all. The only difference is that I did not have a camera and a mic on be, registering everything. At least I am not being hypocritical criticizing Madonna for something so insignificant that I have done. Lucky you guys, that have never had this "problem".
It's funny how CNN cut off the part she says "Thank You" to the guy. It's also funny how people ignore the fact that HE should not have approached the table. There was a breach of security, a man with an object in his hands approached her table, thankfully, it was only a bouquet of flowers. It's pretty clear that she wanted to get rid of him.
And I am not sure he was a "fan". He was indeed a reporter who was outside the building, with a TV crew, waiting to ask her about the flowers he had given her inside (did he really think she would leave carrying the flowers?). It seems more like a prank from a TV show. If a Brazilian TV show (Panico na TV) managed to enter the Oscar's ceremony with a hidden camera without permission or wristband, and "pranked" Tom Cruise and other celebrities, this surely seems something like that.
Very boorish on her part. When a fan gives you a gift, you take it, smile and even if you don't like it, pretend you do. I have never been a big Madonna fan, but she has marketed herself very well and for that I give her kudo's. And I agree with other posts, her age does not support the wardrobe or the makeup that she sometimes sports.
Who is this old lady?
Instead of being insensitive about a flower, why don't you do us all a favor and get the Restylane out of your face and look your age which would be better than you look now! Yikes!
They're certain things from the 80s that suck. She is one of them.
Hag should be glad she's getting ANY kind of flowers at her age/stage of decay.
Brat.
I loathe reconstructed faces and the women who wear them, but hydrangeas, I like...
when did she change her name to madge? or is it just a put down name people are calling her?
Pop diva Madonna did not like her nickname ‘Madge’ until she found that it is the British shorthand for ‘Your Majesty’.
The pop star, who shifted to London to live with her film director spouse Ritchie in the late 1990s, hated it when the local tabloid press began calling her Madge.
However, when she learnt that the name was an abbreviation of Your Majesty, she became comfortable.
“Then someone told her it was an abbreviation of Your Majesty. Ever since, she’s settled in quite nicely, that Madge,” Contactmusic quoted Ritchie, as saying.
Tacky all the way.
Madonna is the spawn of Satan and I would not expect any other behavior form her than this. She is absolutely grotesque and will soon meet her maker. She will then have to face the reality that she is not all she thinks she is. REAL SICKO. I feel sorry for her children.
Another useless article. Who really cares?!
Whatever granny's doin' to her face with cosmetic surgery or botox – it just ain't workin'!
Well that was pointless.. If she "loathes" hydrangea's, she certainly didn't need to poke her buddy there and make the comment at the table, in front of the audience and the world.
What makes these people feel they are so high and mighty and above other people?
Crap, my granddaughter sings better at 10 than she 'ever' could ..
The size of the audience? the "fans".. ?
Thats all PR .. Paid publicity..
To make that comment after shoving the flower under the table. Was a huge lack of class. And since she is getting a little long in the tooth, she might find herself getting treated the same way soon enough..
It doesn't last forever 'Babe'~!
Madonna is still around? She may be a "big" star but she's a "has been"....give it up Madge.....go be a grandma or something......the 80's are over....
Maybe he IS NOT a fan and he DID KNOW.
Oh, and actually maybe the hydrangea was the perfect flower to have given her. Flowers not only have symbolism within poetry, but also when they are given to another person. Hydrangeas supposedly can be symbolic of heartlessness and frigidity...
So funny- I made an album last year (small time stuff) but one of the songs on it is about a guy that gave a girl a hydrangea that he picked from his yard as a token of his affection and she stuck her nose up at it in much the same manner... this happened when I was in the seventh grade and I'm 38 now and for some reason I never forgot it????
Next time I'm driving and Madonna's Holiday comes on, as it always does, I'll be sure to turn it down, remove the faceplate and look over to my passenger and grow my eyes up and say "I absolutely loathe Madonna... obviously the radio station DJ and program doesn't know that... "
actually,this is rare flower in our hometown. i would love to accept it.
give Madonna a break-–she was KIND and accepted the gift for what it was but honestly, if you ARE a fan of hers, you should know what she DOES or DOES NOT enjoy- before you present her with a GIFT-she did the normal thing, she accepted it and then mentioned how obviously, the fan was NOT aware of how she is not fond at all of this type of plant-
IT IS NOT different at all, from getting a christmas or birthday gift of clothing...that you do NOT like...you accept it with a smile and then you trade it in for what you DO like....THIS is normal human behavior and NOT wrong...Madonna did nothing unusul for any human,
Have some class you dam dim bag...
Why is this in the main page of the news?
HeeHee. Madonna WHO?
THE EURO MADONNA FROM MICHIGAN...LET'S ALL VOGUE AT ONE TIME RIGHT NOW TOGETHER...
BWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWAAAAAAAAAAAAA
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAABAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Maybe she thought a fan would have given her something more befitting a queen. She obviously is not a gardener, these blooms are one of the most beautiful on earth! Fame doesn't make you gracious, guess its better to be poor and thankful! I do enjoy these hilarious postings, I needed to read cuz its 1 AM and I can't sleep....
"Hey, can you ratchet that pedestal down any more?"
"No, boss – it's as low as it can get"
I liked her music and the woman herself back in the old days, but she is really trying too hard to hang on to past glory. "He obviously doesn't know I loathe hydrangeas" implies that people should care enough about her to probe into and (even worse) cater to every facet of her taste, which honesty is no longer the case. I might make that effort for the old queen of England, but not for the old queen of pop.
love what truly matters quack quack
I don't see the big deal. She even acknowledged that he wouldn't know better, and it's not like she was intentionally saying it in the mic to spite him. On the contrary, whoever published this was trying to stir up controversy from nothing.
I'm sorry,but you've got on blinders. The big deal is her lack of tact and grace. She didn't 'acknowledge he wouldn't know better', she vainly stated that she guessed he didn't know she disliked them. Honestly, how could anyone possibly know that unless we had k
I'm sorry,but you've got on blinders. The big deal is her lack of grace. She didn't 'acknowledge he wouldn't know better', she vainly stated that she guessed he didn't know she disliked them, as if we are all supposed to know all about her. Honestly, how could anyone possibly know that. She shouldn't have made those comments anywhere near that mic or near him. Rude beyond belief!!
Really, who cares what she likes. Isn't there a better story to report about?
I don't care what she likes just for the sake of knowing, but i do think it's good when these stories make the headlines, because it serves to wake people up from their blind idolization of the spoiled brats we refer to as celebrities And hopefully peoples' feedback will make it's way back to Madonna and wake her up to her need to be more humble and gracious.
Christ she is spoiled. What a waste of space.
I would start a campaign to have dozens upon dozens of hydrangeas sent to her every day.
Ha! Funny, I initially had exactly the same thought. Then I thought, poor hydrangeas! What a drag to have to live with Madonna. Wouldn't want to wish that on them. They deserve a much nicer home!!
:] Great comment Kokie!
Screw Madonna. When I found out she was buddies with GAG ME LADY I dropped her for her music. And to disrespect anyone who gives you any kind of flower is just shallow and rude.
Just because some one has the freedom or right to say something doesn't mean they should. Its called manners or in this case the lack there of. This women has made her money off her fans. She could be decent not make a face or a comment and that was that. Making excuses for an over middle aged women who still doesnt know how to act in public is just sad. Just like her looks and everything else, her career is fading. There is a whole bright big world out there of new starts just waiting to replace her and after this pretty sure most wont be sad to see her go.
She said she loathe hydrangeas and he obviously doesn't know it. Hmmm it could be maybe he does! I'll be willing to adopt the hydrangeas if it still needs a home. God I would hate to be her kids. Here mommy I got you flowers for mothers day and it would say take them back I loathe them. I absolutely loathe Madonna!
She's still using the phony British accent? That gave me my laugh for the day!
Look, I don't like Madonna, but I'm sure we've all been in that situation before. Who hasn't received a gift they didn't like, and made a comment to their friend? It's not like she threw the flowers at her fan. I remember getting gifts I didn't like, and making a comment to someone. BUT, I didn't throw the gift away, nor told them to their face, nor was I ungrateful. I just simply didn't like it, and that's that. I loved the gesture, and embraced the gift. Is it a crime not to like something now?
It's not a crime to dislike something. You're missing the point! It's her tactless, ungrateful response in the presence of the giver of the heartfelt gift that is the 'crime'. It wouldn't have killed her to keep her comments for later in a more private setting. But this just brings to light how classless she is.
She's such a turd.
How does anyone "loathe" a flower? Does she loathe blue skies too? Maybe warm breezes? Maybe a bird's song? Really, how unnecessarily self absorbed.
My thoughts, exactly! Loathe? I don't loathe anything, not even stupid comments of the self-absorbed. 😉
You are so right. How can someone "loath" any of God's creations? Even if he gave her a baggie full of intestinal worms, at least she could consider how much work it must have taken to collect them all!
I am a bonehead. I thought the headline "don't buy Madonna hydrangeas" meant she was selling them. I got kind of curious as to why............so that is why I even bothered reading the article. I can't believe I got caught up in any "Madonna" hype..........my bad.
Who would want to go near that nasty woman's cesspit these days?
I like her a little less now.. Besides the fact that I like Hydrangea's, I think she was a total snoot. Who does she thinks she is... She tries to be British and look like an old school marm.. She's nothing but an old hasbien... Her better days are long gone... She should be grateful for any flowers she get's at this point..
Purple hydrangeas is the most expensive color out there! Let's all ship her some hydrangeas: http://www.hydrangeasflowers.com – anyone knows her address??
Further words from the Rep were quite unnecessary as Madonna spoke simply and direct from her heart.
Fake British b!tch.
That was a beautiful flower. How is that old woman even relevant anymore?
like how newsworthy is this?
A family member knew her just before she was a fast-rising star, and I was told what a nasty, rude, and demanding person she was way back then. Talented, yes. Arrogant and rude? Yes, yes, yes. This was the true Madonna here.
Why would he know what flowers you like? Who would friggin' care? One hydrangea is more beautiful than the old hag that Madonna has become. You can see that her face is deformed from all the plastic surgery, which matches her deformed character. What a f*****g b***h. Her karma is awful because she is so arrogant and nasty to people.
yes word has it that she has an awful smell.
madonna is a skunk, she stinks and her underarm hair is 2 inches long not to mention her Vjj
Excuse me but when did her accent get so British? She grew up in suburban Michigan. I have American friends who have lived in England for over 15 years and they don't have 1/16th the accent she does.
Shes rich, she probably read something about it in snob magazine, and talked about how awful they are at the old hag convention.
I absolutely loathe Madonnas.
Someone's soul has just been crushed after reading about this–the fan who gave her the "loathsome" bouquet.
Madge, please stay away from the US. We've become overrun with these dreadful hydrangeas. They're EVERYWHERE!
Madonna... She's still alive?
he should have gave her a stink weed, to match the smell of her old rotten lady parts.. and what's with the english accent.. isn't she from brooklyn or somethin? does she think it makes her sound more smarter or not as dumber? why is she still in the news again? last time i checked the 80's have long since past..
The English accent is genetic. It kicked in later in her life, when she became a gazillionaire. After all, everyone knows you can't REALLY appear superior with a common Brooklyn accent. Goodness, Killjoy- aren't you at ALL educated? 🙂
I`d say we should all send or bring her hydrangeas until she has a nevous breakdown and flips out! She has made more then enough money thanks to you boobs out there that thinks her music is worth buying. Look what you got for that now? Doesn`t she practice some sort of spirtual religon ? I think she needs way more classes to being a help to other human beings!
Money obviously cannot buy class or graciousness.....this is living proof of that! Trashy girl 30 years ago=trashy woman now!
She'll take whatever flower I give her....but since I wouldn't spend a dime on her....she won't have to worry about it....She's a spoiled little girl!
Really Madonna? No voice, not a talented bone in your body as an actress.. Lady Gaga you are not.. or a lady.
every time i take a big dump in the toilet I imagine that the smell coming up from the toilet bowl must be what madonnas' breath must smell like and looks like what is inside her feeble psyche.
She doesn't have to like them but she could keep her damn mouth shut about it. Then again, she never has had any class, so why should we be surprised?
Then what type do u like girl???
Madonna? Madonna who?
Yeah, it's ungrateful and in poor taste, but since I'm not in her target demographics of a) oldsters nostalgic for the 80s or b) gay men, Madonna means nothing to me.
Madonna who?
Oh, that Madonna that was popular when I was a kid in the 80's. Oh well, who cares.
Michele Backman is both more entertaining and easier to look at than this 80's has been.I encourage all to throw hydrangeas at madonna at every opportunity.For all you hamptonites who have hydrangia growing in your yard I encourage you to cut some and dump it in front of her house on scuttle hole road and lumber lane.
Those flowers look fresher and nicer than her face!
ironic that this wench took on the name madonna for her new career as capitalist pig artist.she is as authentic as any fundamentalist christian bigot- only seems to have made more money than the t-v-angelists AND have the biggest gay audience before lady gaga appropriated that demographic.I'll bet oral roberts wished he had changed his stage name to joe nazareth or something like that back in the 50's.
Rude Biotch. Too much money, too little class.
The story would have been more interesting if they had found out what flowers she does like ...
I don't think it really matters what kind of flowers they are, if they're a GIFT. You don't insult someone who gives you a GIFT. What a rude lady.
Well, they don't like her either.
Years ago my wife arrange flowers for Madonna when she was in town for a concert. Thank GOD she didn't use hydrangeas in the arrangement.
She shouldn't be so hateful. It was a gift! I bet the flowers were older than her new boyfriend!
madonna, will you talk dirty in your British accent while I boink you?
From the headline "Don't buy Madonna hydrangeas", I thought the article meant Madonna had her own line of synthetic hydrangeas and we were supposed to not buy/boycott them for some reason.
English, English - that pesky language.
So I dont see the problem, the fan hands her the flower and she Graciously accepts it, She didnt say to the fan I HATE THESE, she said thank you and smiled and told the person next to her she didnt like them and the fan doesnt know that. You people blow things way out of proportion.
BRITISH ACCENT – STILL?? REALLY?? UGH.
Oh god Madonna enough with the fake accent already. It's seriously embarrassing and I'm not even the one doing it! 4 minutes was a good song but quit with the fakeness!
WHY IS THIS NEWS????????????
Is there not someone, somewhere who has done a really great thing or is up against real trouble that you could devote some print too instead of this un-newsworthy person/story?
Why do people read the entertainment section and then affect to be shocked when it contains articles about entertainers?
Protip: comments like yours don't make you look serious and sophisticated; they make you look like a trite, oblivious nitwit.
Jeff – this story was showcased on CNN's Home page – This NITWIT has CNN as my home page so I can keep up on news – not entertainment. I only go to the Entertainment page if something catches my eye on the front page.
The above note was in reply to BunnyFooFoo – not Jeff.
In addition, you made inaccurate assumptions about my actions, Then you used inappropriate name calling to judge something that was totally untrue. So what does that make you? Don't be so quick to assume, judge, then try to make someone feel stupid – when you could possibly be wrong.
shes a tired old lady trying desperatly to be "in" give her a break. if you want to bust her stones go after the phony british accent shes been sporting.
So, to summarize: a guy goes out of his way to do something thoughtful for her, and she looks at his gift like something she just found on the bottom of her shoe, and then proceeds to make snotty comments about it once he's out of earshot.
Stay classy, Madonna.
Also, lol @ the phony, pretentious British accent. Whom do you think you're fooling, exactly?
THIS is why Madonna will never ascend to the level of LEGEND like Michael Jackson. Her talent was marginal to begin with, though she knew to push boundaries and vamp in videos. But she's one among many ungrateful celebs who will merely be a footnote in the pantheon of pop culture. UNLIKE Mr. Jackson, who - despite his marvelous talent - always expressed Appreciation to fans and treated them as people, regardless of race/age/class/status...and, most remarkably, even through his darkest hours when most of us abandoned him, through his vindication when the falsehood of those charges was proven. Not many celebrities known how to stay humbled and appreciative, and to truly give happiness and express kindness to others. For all her accomplishments and ego, Ms. Madge is among the lowest commonfolk of us all in the end.
ummmm...haven't had a good tirade lately?
I'm not a big fan of Madonna's but anyone who would deny her status as an icon is just deluding themselves. Whatever our personal feelings, the fact remains.
Don't know how you went off on the MJ tangent, though...
She's every bit as big a star as that child-molesting freak. Bigger, actually.
Oh also, half-wit, paying off the kid you molested doesn't exactly qualify as proving the charges false.
So, she is still donning the fake British accent I see. Meh
Someone shove some up her festering slit.
First I thot I share me g@nja flowers wit her. Den I tink, nah, why waste good g@nja on such a b!tch?
You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear! I'm talking about you Madonna.
Hey Eliza Doolittle, You're from Detroit for God's sake, not the manor born. Be a little gracious.
Just don't buy any more of her muzik and she will be loving any kind of flower soon. She goes through money like water through a sieve! She doesn't have the moniker of "Material Girl" for nothing.
Not sure what to watch on TV tonight? Check out TVFirstLook dot Com every day to find out.
That's TVFirstLook dot Com.
she has a fat load of money & she doesn't care what any of us common folk think of her ugly spirit~
any madonna fan knows how much she hates these flowers and to give her one is an obvious insult.
maybe that was the intention~
You are right Plastic Fantastic they should track down that fan and lock him up, for life!
I absolutely loathe fake accents.
Sorry, Madonna but you're still just a girl from Michigan. No one, I mean absolutely no one from Bay City speaks with any of the various British accents. Get over yourself. You're quickly getting right up there Kwame for giving us a bad name.
Honestly, why do we care again?
Wow, what a b!tch. Someone gives her flowers, and all she can think to do is immediately gripe about what kind they are? Go adopt another African, your true colors are starting to show.
Society glamorizes this behavior by referring to it as "diva". It is actually just the behavior of an uncouth, rude person. To even vocalize one's thoughts regarding an unwelcomed act of generosity and thoughtfulness of by another person is terrible.
she "loathes" a flower..... ??? that is very odd. I can't think of one flower/plant etc...that I "loathe". She is an odd duck
If you had a corpse flower blooming near your house, I think you would loathe it. It reeks like rotting meat.
I wouldn't buy Madorka the cow manure to plant her flowers in. God, what a has-been!!
Anyone that finds her attractive must not be that attractive themselves. She has never looked good and has never done anything for anyone but herself. She is hideous inside and out!
HERE I GO AGAIN: YOUR FROM DETROIT MADONNA NOT ENGLAND...BWAAAAAAHAAAAAWWWWWAAAAAABBBBBBWWWAAAAAAA
I'm sure hydrangeas don't like her either. What a nasty Kay-hunt! How can a person not like a flower, and from a fan? She was so quick to let the people around her know this, and for what reason? Her ego was embarrassed. Good! I used to be a fan of Madogma's, until she started cutting the genitals of baby boys. She deserves every bad thing she's got coming to her for hypocrisy. She's almost neck and neck with Joan Rivers on the plastic bubble face look. So much for her spiritual enlightenment marketing scam. She should crawl back up Sandra Bernhard's hoo ha and disappear.
Is Madonna still around?
She's such a jerk.
Hopefully the "fan" who gave her the flowers is over her now and ready to bestow his admiration where it belongs – on a REAL woman.
'sokay madge, I don't like hydrangeas either. Course I'm not nasty enough to say it if given them but I think they're less awesome too, lol.
A hydrangea is the most beautiful plant in the world. They don't need much sunlight and as long as you keep them from drying out they produce the best showiest bloom starting in spring and then slowly fading in color all summer long and into fall. If you can't live in the tropics with year round flowers, hydrangeas are the next best thing. I feel sorry for Madonna if she can't appreciate what a hydrangea plant has to offer – she is missing out on something wonderful.
What a lovely response. Martha Stewart and Madogma wouldn't get along very well.
Regardless of how she feels about hydrangias (and I don't like them much either), she treated the person who was giving it to her rudley. It sounds like she didn't even appreciate the actual gesture or effort the fan had made. It's not like he was giving her poison ivy...... Bad Madonna..... Bad Madonna..... I bet if your children did that to someone, there would be Madonna Hell To Pay! I'm still a big fan (and I remember you from your early starting days)... but shame shame shame on you for your juvenille behavior....
What white trash you are! You days are over get used to it! You look like a used hobbit!
Don't buy Madonna hydrangias
The truth is she never loved them
Although they're wildflowers
Although you're my princess
You keep your primrose
I'll keep my distance
He obviously DOES know she doesn't like them.
I love the fake British accent....or whatever it is she was trying for.
And, I would think it would be obvious that no one knows what flowers she likes or dislikes...because we don't care.
She is a graceless piece of work.
She is not aging very gracefully~
She is witchy looking and trying too hard to be young. It does not matter how many young men she pays to "date" her. Madonna is a cougar. Also, a young girl from the state of Michigan now (decades later) has a British accent? Her response was rude as the mike was on. She should have graciously accepted whatever was given to her and then had her assistant remove it afterwards. Don't flower hate!
TYPO free comment – please disregard my previous one!
I watched the full clip: the guy said "You're my princess, I love you" as he handed her the flowers! She should have told him to get a life. People get upset at celebs when they snub a fan, but forget how many nutty fans completely embarrass themselves and the star – it hurts just watching it. Go, Madonna!
To let someone know how much they mean to you when you most likely are only going to see them that one time is not as big of a crime as you make it out to be. I think some famous people that get freaked out when they are accosted in this manner need to chill out and be happy that people care as much as they do.
Maybe she should not wear any hydrangeas embroider. she is ugly anyway

The queen of publicity gets more suckers talking about her again. Long Live Madge!
Its not that she didnt like them, we all get gifts we do not like, its her condescending and catty way of saying it while still on the dais. Despite her "british" accent shows little class.
desperate attempt to become relevant again!
not a big fan but the fact is, Madonna will always be relevant.
Hmm. British accent
Tramp and ugly Troll!!!!!
Madonna loathes hydrangeas! I'm glad this made front-page at CNN.
I don't think hydrangeas are the issue here. It is the fact that she is rude, ungrateful with poor manners. People made her who she is . She was a garbage eater nobody from Michigan with no real talent . Wow, I can't believe how self centered and ungrateful she is. What difference does it make if it's carnation or hydrangea or a rose ? It is the gesture that counts.
Ungrateful and cold, but we already knew that about her. I like what Joshua said above, "Only someone that wealthy can develop such a pointless aversion." But notice how she is also now wearing a cross? How convenient being that she is in Italy. She's a fraud. Always has been.
Haha... not according to this blogger...
http://ericdarryl.wordpress.com/2011/09/06/wwmw-what-would-madonna-wear/
What does this have anything to do with this blog fashion? Comon Give me a break!
Her clothes are ugly. Thus, I like her convent inspired.
She looks hot in the black cat woman like outfit
Next time find something to give her that is poisonous to the touch.
No wonder Guy Ritchie always wears a hydrangea in his lapel. Much like warding off a vampire with garlic.
HA! This may be one of the wittiest comments on here! True genius!
Seriously? One of your fans just handed you flowers and not even 5 seconds later, this is what you say? What a bi***
Only someone that wealthy can develop such a pointless aversion. She doesn't care for one particular type of flower? SO WHAT! Its just a flower!
Hit the nail right on the head.
Hey Madge, your not british, i know its hard to accept being an american but its simple fact, you are not british.
You have to be born in britain to be british, you can hold a british passport, you can have a british kid but it never makes you british, lose the accent, its insulting to all the british people out there, including myself.
I dont put on an american accent and you may find the british people in america dont, they accept their birthrights even if they hold american visa'a or indeed citizenship, they dont lose their accents, losing yours is an insult to the british people you are trying to persuade people you are and an insult to the american people you are trying to disvow with every word you speak
Exactly!
I love hyrdangaes plants, especially light blue or pink when they are full grown. She is just plain rude. How can someone loathe a flower? Garlic, or a gnat infested weed is one thing. She is trying hard to hang on to fame though. She was fun in the 1980's and I liked her in Evita but she is rude. But then again she can make herself to be anyone; even a fake Brit.
I agree. The point wasn't that is was hydrangea, nor would it have been for a dainty daisy, a regular rose or the dreaded carnation. The point was that it was a gift from a fan who himself thought the flower was beautiful, and out of his kind and generous nature, unselfishly bestowed a gift to someone he cherished – whether he admired her music, fame, beauty or iconic, legendary stature. She should have returned with the warm grace of someone who could actually have the capacity for recognizing kindness and purity of a warm heart and being able to return that kindness. Instead, years spent in relishing the 'Diva-heralded' spotlight simply callouses hearts and souls of many celebrities. Forgotten are words like 'thank you', 'we or I appreciate you,' and 'if it weren't for fans like you, sometimes I don't know how I would have made it here. But, because of your encouragement, I am lifted up. I love you all.' As Madonna and GaGa have evolved into more self-absorbed, self-centered neophytes, they have lost the simplicity of a genuine smile, an extended hand, an unselfish hug or a knee bowed to our world's youth to show our children that they are there for them, proud of them, praying for them and that their music is to keep them smiling. Bring back the stars who bought shoes at Goodwill, and who spend afternoons visiting the sick at St. Jude's Children's hospitals. With tornadoes, floods, fires, earthquakes, and jobs continued to be lost daily, "to those to whom has been given much, greater responsibility is expected." They could shine their love and fame on others. Sadly, they still just want to shine alone so that the only light that can be seen is theirs. But, we all remain so much brighter when we shine in each other's lives for the whole world to see.
Hydrangaes have feels says her rep. Really??? I guess florist must be going deaf with all the flower cutting they do! Does Madonna not know how to be grateful? Etiquette 101: If you do not like them ~ don't comment until the cameras and microphones are turned off! Then throw them out at a different location. Also, what is up with a "British" accent? Madonna you are an American! Either Be Proud or Surrender your Citizenship!!!
Do you realize that it has been proven that if you live in a specific area for an extended period of time (such as Madonna), you will tend to pick up the accent naturally? I grew up near Seattle, then moved down near Dallas, TX for 4 years and currently, traces of a southern accent is caught, unintentionally, in my every day normal not-too-much-of-a-Washingtonian accent? Cut her a little bit of break on that one – she is American, though with how long she has been living abroad, she may truly have picked up a bit of a British accent, regardless of intention, and it now seems quite normal to be speaking in a combination American English/British accent.
Oh please. She had that 'accent' a couple of months after moving over there! And it's a bad accent at that. lololololol
Yes, she has been using that fake accent way before moving to England...
You can take the girl outa michigan but you'll never get the michigan outa the girl.At least Michael Moore is comfortable in his own michigan born skin and has done some good despite that horrible fate of being born there.madonna on the other hand is indicative of what is wrong with people born in the united states in general and more specifically the state of michigan and all the hopeless losers it creates.
You don't have to like Madonna...but you have NO reason to disparage the state or people of Michigan...its a beautiful place with lovely people. Keep your ignorant, hateful, opinions to yourself.
And what gives you the right to judge, Judge? You obviously have no clue about the place or the people coming from it...
Lol, your comment made me laugh... mostly because it's the most ignorant thing I've read pertaining to these comments. People from Michigan, myself included, are not like Madonna. Do some research – you could benefit from it.
Hear hear pip pip tally ho.........keep one thing in mind......madonna paved the way for the decline of western civilization disguised as empowerment for women.That;s why we have the likes of Sarah pallin and Kim kardashian wasting valuable time and news space.Madonna made this all possible.For this she will be remembered in the cultural/sociological history
lessons to come.And you wonder why jihadists have a bone to pick with the christian world? Fuggedaboudit!
Good to know. Ill remember that the next time I want to send Madge (pffth!) flowers! haha!
Good to know. Ill remember that the next time I want tn send Madge (pffth!) flowers!
On behalf of the hydrangeas all over the world I would like to extend my deepest thanks to madonna for loathing us.We have just been elevated to a new status far above this commoner from
Michigan who wouldn't know real beauty or art if it was given to her.
Madonna doesn't seem like a flower lover period. She must have had some strange experience with them before !
Shoulda given her a bouquet of condoms.
ROTFL!!!!!!
At least that's something you know she'd use!
She's still a hot tramp.
"she says in what sounds like a British accent"
Geriatrich Madona....
Yeah her next album is all songs I threw out. Now she's copying me. It's come full circle!
This from a woman who once ate out of garbage cans. What a snot!
don't blame her... don't care for them either.
http://youtu.be/Y7m56YH-lHw
And would you be so rude as to drop them on the floor out of sight and then stage whisper to the person next to you that you can't stand them? How petty can she be? VERY, it seems.
Is this bunt still around?
I thought all grandmas loved hydrangeas?
Ouch. Just... ouch.
Especially British grandmas!
Ha! Good one!
HAHAHAHAHHAAA!!!
Ok, total ageism and political incorrectness, but... best comment in a long time.
LIKE!!!! HAHAHAA
punch'd in the Pancreas
I'm so old I remember dancing to her first record (yes, I said record !). What nasty British Bi-atch she has become in her advanced age. Maybe it's dementia. Maybe t's a brain tumor.
TWO SNAPS!!
She may hate Hydrangea but I heard Madonna is now growing a TickleMe Plant and loves how the leaves fold together and the branches droop when Tickled! See video. Soon she will be singing I Love My TickleMe Plant! Search TickleMe Plant to see it in action and to grow your own
Get.over.it.Madonna.
How ungrateful.....what a Diva....am sure there are MANY beautiful blondes around this world that would accept that kind offering.
She politely accepted the flower that looked like it was clipped from some granny's garden and made a remark to someone else certainly a lot less snippy than many comments here.
@where.am.i,
If her irritating dismissive "Thank you" is your idea of manners, then I'd hate to see what kind of behavior you would consider rude. She was a cold hag!
'kabalah", spiritness","careness"' "love each other" Im a big fan of Madonna, but if she behave like that with a flower from someone who love her – so the flower is not the issue. where is the Kaballah spirit: don't do to other what you hate that someone else do to you". Unfortunatly, she might me the darkness of the light. and not the light. this is not a person who can be a model for btight life, this is not a student of Kaballah. this is a fake !

Madonna may be named for a Lady, but she sure isn't one! This man shouldn't wast his money or time on someone who obviously has no class, no kindness and NO Manners!
The next trendy religion she embraces should be one that doesn't allow her to be such a C U Next Tuesday.
Madonna, he probably didn't know you loathe hydrangeas because he doesn't give a rats ass what you like. He was there to hand out flowers to everyone at the event. He doesn't care that you like sniffing your grandmother's feet either.
The proper response is to thank the person giving the gift and BE thankful. No one owes you anything. I would be very happy to receive any flowers from anyone. Flowers are absolutely the perfect gift. There is nothing better than a wild flower to brighten my day.
So MS. Madonna, You "absolutely loathe hydrangeas" – have you ever considered how many millions of people absolutely loathe you?
See You Next Tuesday
so she was trying to impress another panelist by insulting a fan? She is shalllow. And I think all those who think its funny should work for her, look at what her "friends" did in Malawi, spent millions intended for the poor girls there on golf and car service. She uses "the gays" and artists for their work, adoration and self gain. Be nice if the morons that support her figured out she hates them secretly and is using them, of course the artists and originals she ripped off are where? Obviously whats of value is not appreciated.
Madonna who?
totally, I wouldn't bring her weeds...
Agreed. It's one thing to feel the "loathing" on the inside; it's quite another to be a celebrity, in the presence of a camera and speak it. Said media captured said insult and now it's gone viral. I'm sure the poor fan who was trying to show his "fandom" is suitably humiliated. How's it feel Maddie...bet you're so proud. Oh wait...you don't give a crap about anyone but you.
Didn't that guy sound a little like Borat?
She did accept the flowers and she did it with a smile and professionally. why was it so wrong to let some one know that she is not a fan of what she accepted. I dont see that she did any thing wrong. would it have been better to tell the fan take this napy looking flower and stick it where the sun dont shine???
Hate the UGLY O L D flipp'n w w vb witch. She gets ugly every year. F F who are.
Well I guess thats what happens when you get OLD. She might as well pack it in and head back to the OLD age home and let lady G run the show. I would not pee on her even if she was on FIRE!! haha
Madonna is so overrated.
She may hate Hydrangea but I heard Madonna is now growing a TickleMe Plant and loves how the leaves fold together and the branches droop when Tickled! See video. Soon she will be singing I Love My TickleMe Plant! Search TickleMe Plant to see it in action and to grow your own http://www.ticklemeplants.com
This is something that really isn't a big deal. I think the media just blew it out of proportion.
