Madonna labelled an ‘idiot’ over US festival drug reference
From CBC:
«Canadian electronic DJ Deadmau5 has entered into a high-profile feud with Madonna, calling the Material Girl an “idiot” after she appeared to glamorize drug use during a recent concert.
The 53-year-old pop star was performing at the Ultra Music Festival in Miami over the weekend when she asked the crowd: “How many people in this crowd have seen Molly?”
Molly is a slang term for MDMA, otherwise known as the drug ecstasy. (..)
“Very classy there Madonna. ‘HUR DUR HAS ANYONE SEEN MOLLY???”’ wrote the four-time Juno winner, whose real name is Joel Zimmerman, on Monday.
“Such a great message for the young music lovers at Ultra. Quite the…philanthropist. But hey, at least (you’re) HIP AND TRENDY!…That’s your big message to Ultra attendees? Hipsterspeak for looking for drugs?”»
Deadmau5 has a point:
«Based on research with women, it appears that the so-called “rave” drug can induce a drop in serotonin levels that can last up to two years. Serotonin, the research team noted, is critical to the regulation of mood, appetite, sleep, learning and memory.»
I suspect Madonna knows this as well, but being an old fart, she needs to boost her street creeds with hipster-talk.
