At Britney Spears' wedding, Spears, Madonna, Paris Hilton, Selena Gomez, Donatella Versace, and Drew Barrymore attempt a spontaneous rendition of Madonna's hit song “Vogue.”

I found that at the NY Post, which calls it "awkward." I think they were just standing together and needing to pose, so the lyric "Don’t just stand there, let’s get to it/Strike a pose, there’s nothing to it" worked as a comical way to get in the spirit of producing a good visual for still photography. We weren't really meant to listen.

And let me say they all look great. I especially love Madonna's dress and find Drew Barrymore's giant black bag pretty funny. I'm sure it must mean something, maybe something like the polar opposite of a wedding dress. Drew is not currently married (and has 3 ex-husbands).

Whatever the thing Drew Barrymore is wearing makes her look like something right out of star wars. She sits in the galactic senate on Coruscant - and was voted for the galactic empire - in her spare time when she's not acting on the planet earth.

I'mm alarmed that you can recognize or even distinguish any of them.

Rich women aging expensively, performing conspicuous displays of their affluence. Thorsten Veblen would love this story. So would the author of Hunger Games.

Looking good, ladies. No hot lunch?

I'm experiencing harm! I guess.

Madonna is wearing the alien eye shades.
Althouse- exactly.

'And let me say they all look great.'

Care to reassess that?

When Paris Hilton is by far the classiest woman in your group, you may want to re-evaluate your personal style.

The leathery bag is Donatella, not Barrymore.

Kidding. But are you saying Barrymore's outfit is black? It looks like a coppery brown to me.

Thrice-married Drew was making a statement w/ the bag -- "You absolutely, totally should not marry me"

Leland said...

I'm able to pick out which is which and I hate myself for it. That said, congrats to the bride and agree nothing awkward unless you must, absolutely must, demand that others, particularly the 1%, not celebrate while others are suffering from high inflation, global warming, and starvation in 3rd world countries.

The number of STI’s per capita in that group is probably off the charts.

Given Althouse’s past analysis of the emotional impact of campaign commercials, thoughts on this Russian example would be interesting.

Madonna looks...great?
That's nice of you to say, sure, but what's wrong with her face?

Hey, everybody's having a good time, good for them, gals pallin' around, fun stuff.
But even with face-covering sunglasses Madonna doesn't look good, no.

Is there a tarty divas union or is it just a social club?

RBE said...

Nothing awkward about this to me. They looked like grown up women having a bit fun posing.

The dirty black bag?

BudBrown said...

Madonna's so short - I always think she's taller. Hmmm... she's 5'5 and Britney and Drew are 5'4. What's Drew got on her feet?

Ann Althouse said...

Alarmed? That seems a tad hysterical.

What fresh hell is this?
