Madonna on Jennifer and Ben
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck must be hanging their heads in shame to realise that Madonna is so disappointed in them.
Exercising her diva-given right to comment with authority on any matter under the sun, her Madge has been pondering the furore surrounding the abortive Bennifer wedding earlier this year.
“Ultimately, if you have a strong relationship, and there is understanding of what a committed marriage is, I don’t think that having a lot of media attention can break it up,” she pronounced.
Except, that is, if one shamelessly courts the spotlight. “To a certain extent,” shy, retiring Madge mused, “they courted the media attention.
At the end of the day I feel like that’s their job, and then there needs to be a part of the relationship that you keep private”.
Bringing her prodigious critical faculties to bear upon the nature of celebrity, the suggestion seems to be that Ben and Jen simply got the wrong mix.
Madonna, through trial and error, seems to have negotiated this public-private hazard successfully by keeping her privacy, her own counsel, and therefore her family together. After the Roy Horn-type mauling her last album received, however, you just know she’d gnaw off Lourdes’ legs if it meant good publicity for the next.
