Madonna Regrets Sexy Past


Pop icon Madonna admits she took her sexy image too far in the early stage of her career.

The 46-year-old singer and actress says her attitude - which included suggestive songs such as Like A Virgin, daring concerts and releasing the provocative book Sex in 1992 - may have misled fans.

"Sometimes I was being overtly sexy for the sake of showing off when I didn't need to be. I think I hurt myself. "Ultimately none of us wants to be judged, or approved of, or loved because of the way we look, or how sexy we are," the singer tells Ladies' Home Journal.

"One minute I was saying 'believe in yourself' and the next minute I was saying 'just be sexually provocative'. "I was letting it pump up my ego, thinking 'aren't I great, they're writing about me, my picture's on the cover of every magazine, I'm so fabulous'," she says.

--So the cone bra was taking it too far? Surely not...

1 I, personally, find Madonna's latest remarks to be totally disingenuous. I like her music and thinks she's tremendously talented, but she's made a career out of manipulating the media. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with that. I just don't buy it anymore.

2 Gee Madonna, ya think? Of course this is how she feels now that she's trying to play the British Lady, devoted wife/mom, children's book author, Kabbahla role.

4 Anyone see "Body of Evidence"?? That was her attempt at her own "Basic Instinct" ... but it just didn't work.

5 The problem, though, is Madonna can carry all her acting talents in a thimble. She used it all up in A League of Their Own.
