Liz Smith on Madonna at Oprah’s

Today’s Liz Smith‘s column on The New York Post confirms Madonna’s appearence on The Oprah Winfrey Show, airing next tuesday, September 16th.

“On Monday Oprah gave Madonna an hour on her show, airing Tuesday. The star was in Chicago to talk with Oprah about her coming children’s book, “The English Roses,” and its sequels. The gasping over M’s MTV kiss with Britney Spears is just beginning to die down, but mercury is stable compared to Madonna’s public image these days. With Oprah she was charming, decorum itself, and at one point burst into sentimental tears when her influential fifth-grade teacher made a surprise appearance, along with the family of a cancer-stricken little girl whom Madonna had befriended.

So which is the real Madonna Louise Veronica Ciccone – the vixen of MTV or the well-spoken, emotional author of books for kids? Both. Nothing is ever black and white, especially not with Madonna“.
