Madonna Hits "Emotionally Retarded" People At Post-Split Show (VIDEO)

The night after her divorce from Guy Ritchie was confirmed, Madonna slammed the "emotionally retarded" at during her Sticky & Sweet tour. Performing in Boston, Madonna introduced the song "Miles Away" (about a couple who grow apart) by saying, "This song is for the emotionally retarded. You might know a few people who fall into that category - god knows I do."

The video is grainy, but you can hear her say it: (Scroll for the song's lyrics)

Lyrics to the song "Miles Away":
I just woke up from a fuzzy dream
You never would believe those things that I had seen
I looked in the mirror and I saw your face
You looked right through me, you were miles away

All my dreams they fade away
I'll never be the same
If you could see me the way you see yourself
I can't pretend to be someone else

You always love me more, miles away
I hear it in your voice, we're miles away
You're not afraid to tell me, miles away
I guess we're at our best when we're miles away

So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away

When no one's around then I have you here
I begin to see the picture, it becomes so clear
You always have the biggest heart,
When we're six thousand miles apart

Too much of no sound
Uncomfortable silence can be so loud
Those three words are never enough
When it's long distance love

You always love me more, miles away
I hear it in your voice, we're miles away
You're not afraid to tell me, miles away
I guess we're at our best when we're miles away

So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away

I'm alright, don't be sorry, but it's true
When I'm gone you'll realize
That I'm the best thing that happened to you

You always love me more, miles away
I hear it in your voice, we're miles away
You're not afraid to tell me, miles away
I guess we're at our best when we're miles a-a-away...

You always love me more, miles away
I hear it in your voice, we're miles away
You're not afraid to tell me, miles away
I guess we're at our best when we're miles away

So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away

I kinda like Madonna, too -
but she needs to start leaving her clothes on.
She sure ain't no spring chicken anymore.

You go Madonna. She has so much fire and spirit.

Ummm....... who cares?

[walleymr]

So, playing your marriage for PR; delaying a split until YOU have the time to address it; adultery.

These are all qualities of the emotionally normal?

Except it was reported a year ago the GUY supposedly had an affair.

[strangerinthenight]

That Madonna went out of her way to defend Guy and say's it was all BS ?
