Madonna was all the talk of Paris, even before the city's huge Bastille Day festival. The Queen of Pop was giving a concert in the grand Stade de France just north of Paris, and the paparazzi were in full force, describing Madonna as exhausted and tired. But tonight, she put on a fabulous show, our sources tell us, as demonstrated this insider's photo (above). Madonna is still the epitome of glamour and style.
Madonna created a scandal (as usual) by projecting an image of the right-wing politician, Marine Le Pen, bearing a swastika on her forehead. Madonna had first aired the controversial image of Ms. Le Pen in Tel Aviv on May 31. After the image's debut, Ms. Le Pen shot back by describing Madonna as being one of the "old singers," who go to extremes for publicity. But last month, Ms. Le Pen escalated her rhetoric and threatened to sue the Material Girl if the controversial image was not removed from the montage of images and video as part of Madonna's concert. No word, yet, on Ms. Le Pen's reaction to the use of the image at le Stade de France.
