Subject: Madonna's Instagram account flagged for spreading misinformation

Written By: Philip Eno on 07/29/20 at 4:02 am

Pop star Madonna has been censured by Instagram after sharing a video about a coronavirus conspiracy theory to her 15 million followers. In her post, the singer claimed a vaccine for Covid-19 had already been found, but was being hidden to "let the rich get richer". Instagram blurred out the video with a caption saying: "False Information". It also directed users to a page debunking the claims in the video, noting there is no coronavirus vaccine. The video was later deleted from Madonna's Instagram page, but not before fans protested at her decision to share the post.

She's gotten really nutty over the past years. Her call to blow up the White House, her shower "speech" during the thick of the pandemic, and now this. Can't say I feel sorry for her for this.

Well that's what happens when you get old.


What kind of ageist thing is that to say? She's nutty because she's completely removed from reality, not because she's "old"!

I have always known her to be, I cannot think of the right word here, but she in the past has refused to give autographs to her fans, and I would dearly like to have her to sign my DVD of "Evita". At one time she did use to live in West London, I always wonder bumping into her when out walking.

I've always thought of her to be a bit peculiar from wearing a wedding dress on stage in 1984 to her lesbian kiss in 2003 with Britney and Christina and I'm pretty sure there are others that I forgotten.
