Recently, LadyGaga debuted her "controversial" video for Alejandro. I'm not sure what everyone has their panties in a twist about. Frankly, Madonna's Just Like a Prayer was far more controversial. Wasn't she blowing a Priest or something? I don't know, I don't remember. My mom used to drug me with sedatives in my YooHoo so I wouldn't interrupt her "me time" so the eighties are all a blur. There were burning crosses, though. I would have been concerned about the association with the KKK, but to each their own. By comparison, I found Alejandro to be a boring video. There were some marching, shirt less gay gents. Their stiff, synchronized marching reminded me of Nazis. That was creepy but not even the point so she failed there. She writhed on a bed in flesh colored underthings. My Nonnie wore flesh colored underthings so, again, not exactly shocking to me. GaGa wore a pleather nun's outfit. Please, many a trollop does that every Halloween. Sexy Nun? That's been done. She dips a rosary into her mouth then pulls it out. YAWN. To be honest I didn't get through the whole video because I was tired of waiting for the shock.
Anyway, Katy Perry said in response to Alejandro that " . . . if you put sexuality and religion in the same bottle and try to shake it up, it's not cool." While I don't necessarily disagree with Ms. Perry, I find this ironic coming from a girl banging a dude that looks like Jesus.

I believe Madonna was involved with an African American Jesus not a priest. I'm am assuming a American and that at some point this Jesus applied for his VISA and citizenship prior to the making of that video. Maybe he was on a work VISA or perhaps even illegal... making the video that much more controversial. - Duke
