Madonna’s Hydrangeas Comment Video Goes Viral

The video with Madonna’s hydrangeas comment has scored more than a million views in four days. Besides the pop star is being criticized for making it. At the Venice Film Festival press conference Madonna was given a bouquet of hydrangeas by a fan. Thanking him Madonna then hid the bouquet under the table and leaned toward the neighbor on her right to say:
I absolutely loathe hydrangeas. He obviously doesn’t know that.
Reportedly she didn’t know her microphone was on and the video captured her facial expression, which wasn’t favoring that hydrangea bouquet and a comment to her press conference neighbor. Of course, the comment has drawn negative reaction from the public while the video went viral on YouTube.
Madonna’s representative stated that:
She’s entitled to like any flower she wants and she didn’t want to hurt the feeling of the hydrangeas of the world,” the rep said in a short statement. “No disrespect to the hydrangeas lovers of the world but she prefers different types of flowers.
I don’t know if that video even deserves so many views. She didn’t like the flowers. The guy didn’t know she “absolutely loathes” them. She should have kept it to herself, yes, but she chose not to (which was a bad decision being on a press conference with the mics and all). The fan could have heard it, the comment. But well, he anyway did after all. I feel bad.
Anyway the whole thing is just so typical. Press conference, mics are live, cameras are rolling and someone spurts out something rude or stupid. Happens all the time. I feel there is a lesson here. Yeah, if you don’t want to be heard by everyone in the press conference room, just don’t say “it” out loud.
What do you think of hydrangeas?

A millionaire hedge fund manager who recently came out as gay is facing one of the UK’s most expensive divorces. Pierre Lagrange, a former trader for

Like many other people, I went to last Saturday’s protest in East London first and foremost to oppose the far right English Defence League and to defend the Muslim community against EDL thuggery.
But I also wanted to stand in solidarity with Muslims who oppose far right Islamists. These fundamentalists threaten and intimidate the Muslim community; especially fellow Muslims who don’t conform to their harsh, intolerant interpretation of Islam. To varying degrees, both the Islamists and the EDL menace Muslim people.
In addition, I wanted to be visible as a gay man, to demonstrate that East London is not and never will be a “Gay-Free Zone” and to show that most lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people are not anti-Muslim; that there are LGBTs who want to work in solidarity with Muslim people to oppose all prejudice, discrimination and violence.
Next round for California’s gay marriage ban

The next challenge for California’s ban on gay marriage comes today when the state’s highest court considers whether gay marriage opponents have the legal standing to defend it in court.
The state Supreme Court will hear arguments on the issue.
US District Judge Vaughn Walker ruled in August 2010 that the 2008 ban, known as Proposition 8, should be lifted.
Then, opponents applied for – and won – a stay while they appealed the decision.
Judge Walker’s verdict is being considered by the 9th US Circuit Court of Appeal, which says it will not make a ruling until the Supreme Court decides whether the gay rights opponents have the legal standing to bring the case.
Anti-gay group ProtectMarriage.com wants to challenge the ruling but state officials have refused the defend the ban.
