Madonna In Meltdown? Report Of Anemia, Tour Chaos

THE stress of the past month is taking its toll on MADONNA.

The Queen Of Pop has sacked two dancers and her tour manager is threatening to walk out over her spectacular moods.

And for the first time, despite her incredible fitness regime, her health has started to suffer.

Doctors discovered Madge is anaemic, a surefire sign she is overdoing it, and she also suffered a painful knee injury.

Madge has had a doctor, physiotherapist and a chiropractor on duty during rehearsals for her forthcoming Sticky & Sweet world tour.

This week medical experts ordered her to take her foot off the pedal on the punishing dance routines because her body simply cannot cope.

She is now taking time out and resting in New York state's Hamptons resort with close pal GWYNETH PALTROW.

The Kabbalah has her standing on her head...

[Southrnbelle]

It's called - MENOPAUSE!!!!!!!!!

[marignymitch]

I think you mean MENopause.

[SharonB]

Menopause is one of the wonderful things about being over 50.

[JJ30]

Is it just me or is someone else thinking to themselves, why is that picture upside down?

[NoSillyName]

JJ30, its just you.

[CowgirlAmy]

Bwhahahahaahha

The usual assortment of losers come out and degrade Madonna on everything from her appearance to her age. Listen, no one cares that she is 49. Old? So what. What do you haters hope to accomplish by doing this? You are not going to change ONE mind about her on this board. Ever. You aren't going to take away ANY of her success, former or current. Most of you must be Republicans the way you operate. You can say she is a has-been and no talent all you want, it doesn't make it so. She is a renowned songwriter and she has had the 3 biggest hit songs of her career this decade. She is, according to mediatraffic, going to end this decade, THIS decade, as the most successful female of the 00's. You guys sound like the Bush admin when they keep trying to link Saddam to 9/11 and WMD's.

As for this story- BALONEY. She is probably anemic due to her diet and schedule for the tour. That can be easily fixed.

Meanwhile, she is going to keep on being insanely successful and popular despite the rumblings of a few anon posters on HuffPo. LMFAO

Hey CowgirlAmy

Are you a Madonna troll? A look at your profile shows you do nothing but defend her from her many detractors.

I greet any "news" about Madonna with suspician, it has never been beyond her to manufacture publicity to keep her name in print. Is it any coincidence that the increase in Madonna news coincides with the release of her new album and a multi million dollar supporting tour?

[JDJase]

THANK YOU!

[MajorKong]

Guy Ritchie, is that you?

[NoSillyName]

No, its "Madge".

[PanFx]

No one gives a rat's behind whether she is successful or not.

It's the constant media attention and wasted web page space that bother most people. She is glorified as someone who has limitless talent and popularity, when comments on web sites such as this show the real sentiment the general public has towards her. After all these years she has shown herself to be a narcissistic, bubble-headed, unoriginal, demanding, self-righteous, demented, controlling, morally loose, over-exposed celebrity who most of us wish would just drop out of sight.

A majority of her fans are international. Here in the U.S. I don't think I would be overstating it when I say that most people believe her glory days have long passed, and that her attempt at squeezing every last bit of money to support her vainglorious lifestyle is pathetic. If she drove off a cliff tomorrow it wouldn't be soon enough.

[NoSillyName]

Menopause, Madonna. I wanna see how you keep the weight off after you're done.

[SmootyBooty]

By working it...

[SmootyBooty]

By getting up off of her ass and working. Why don't you try that?

[marylandtravelinman]

you will see, you will see. and i hope others are kinder to you.

[NoSillyName]

Wow, are you a nasty fan(atic).

[JDJase]

I'm sure she works harder in one day than you have your whole life

[ReelBusy]

This news explains why so many are watching my Madonna/A-Rod video on YouTube right now.

[PanFx]

DON'T CLICK ON THE ABOVE LINK.

The video has no content other than a still photo of A-Rod and Madonna, nothing else. Move along.

[ROBOT8]

AMOROSA SYNDROME !!!!!!!! I WONDER IF IT'S CATCHING???????? SHAWN PEN BECAME A HOUSEHOLD NAME AFTER THEY BROKE UP... I HOPE THE SAME FOR GUY RITCHIE..................
I'M READY FOR MY CLOSE UP MR. DE MILLE!!!!!!!! CUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[truthyguy]

Diet and exercise are great for anyone at any age.

But Madonna should face it: she is old.
Too old to be acting like a 20-something sexually attractive diva.

If I want a woman with budging veins and a body composed of bones only, I'll take up necrophilia.

[SmootyBooty]

Old is relative. She's younger than 50% of America!

[marylandtravelinman]

i love that!

[ianrthorpe]

Anemia seems to be an occupational hazard for vegan divas, along with sanity issues.

Here's another story about a vegetarian celebrity with a monster ego and sanity issues.

[commentguy1234]

Um, I may not be up on the latest techniques in web design or the latest snarky way editors get back at celebs, but . . . THE PIC IS UPSIDE DOWN.

[camazotz]

Um, me thinks it was intentional. No?

Visual commentary.

[commentguy1234]

What wit! What a shame it's being wasted here. The poster should try the New Yorker, I hear they're up on all the latest 'visual commentary.'

[JeanPaulSatire]

Given the upside-down photo, should the headline read "...Melt-UP...?"

[Anastasia]

Love the screen name.

[jukesgrrl]

Isn't upside down the international distress symbol?

[trollsbwild]

Sounds like ticket sales are not brisk enough. Time for some drama to boost sales?

She has HAD a good career.

[marignymitch]

I think sales are fine, but she does have a record to support.

[truthskr]

Dare to dream of her demise. She's sold out everywhere, and both of her concerts here in Denver sold out in under an hour...and that's with $400 ticket prices. Everything I've read is that she may stand to pull in $300M on this tour alone. I'd say her career is still going well.

She needs to pull it together, though, and hanging out with Gwyn, her #1 enabler in the 4 hours of exercise a day and microbiotic diet department, isn't going to help any.

[theJuanStar]

Actually her tour is par to break her record breaking last tour.

[SmootyBooty]

And still does. Where you been?

[srvblooze]

Why the hell is this on HuffPo anyway? I understand that there is an entertainment section but, Jesus Christ, the woman never had any talent! EVER!

[DesertLight]

You really think that? Have you seen how many cd's she has sold over the years? Mixed entertainment, music and showmanship.

Or is this a case of a bit of jealousy?

[Trueheart]

C'mon. The pop music world is littered with untalented financial successes. Showmanship is not necessarily creative genius. She has marketed herself well, but the product may have reached its sell-by date.

[monty]

If she truly had no talent, she would have been forgotten after her first album.

[marylandtravelinman]

her talent is in marketing. sheep need a herd.

[SmootyBooty]

There are lots of folks who think S inatra, and C omo had no talent...

[OhComeOnNow]

They don't. And your point is?....

[helonias]

BUt they could really sing I mean really sing and they didn't have to jump all around in their undies with an army of scantily clad drones

[nanoscare]

She should move on. She could try hosting an intimate interview show where her sense of humor was the draw. If she has any humor left. Lay off the Chamalla though. That crap will make you see stuff.

[pizzmoe]

My knees crack when I stand up from my computer chair. Give MaDoo some credit. She could use a little help from A-Rod's trainer, though. Or Keith Richards.

[JackND]

Well, she will be 50 next month...but then again, look at Tina Turner.

[NoSillyName]

Ms. Turner is a miracle of Nature.

Madonna, not so much.

[SmootyBooty]

Why so bitter? Tina kept touring until she was nearly 70. Maddy's got a lot of shows in front of her...
