A Lesson From Madonna
7 Feb 2010 by E, No Comments »
If there’s one thing I hope my daughter will learn from Madonna, it’s this:
I leaned forward and asked her something that I had always wondered about: Did she ever feel insecure? She rarely exposed any sort of vulnerability. “I feel insecure every five minutes,” she shot back. “What are you talking about?” She said that being as pregnant as she was, she panicked when she looked in the mirror.
I pressed her, because I wanted to know how she felt when she wasn’t pregnant. Say she came across a picture of a boyfriend’s ex. Does she make mean comments? She said that there was a whole process that happens.
“First I go, ‘Oh, she’s skinny and pretty.’”
She grinned.
“Then I think, ‘Oh, but I’m me.’”
