Madonna adds 2nd Yankee Stadium show; "M.I.A." discusses middle finger on SNL (that Zooey Deschanel hosted)
“I was really surprised. I didn’t know anything about it. I wasn’t happy about it,” Madonna told Seacrest of M.I.A.’s flipped bird.
“I understand it’s punk rock and everything, but to me there was such a feeling of love and good energy and positivity, it seemed negative. It’s such a teenager…irrelevant thing to do,” she continued. “What was the point? It was just out of place.”
Madonna‘s September 6th Yankee Stadium show sold out this morning, so they added a 2nd show. The new date is September 8th and tickets go on presale Tuesday morning…

In related news, though it wasn’t that funny (but for the record), like “Lana Del Rey” before her, “M.I.A.” appeared on Saturday Night Live this past weekend. M.I.A. was there to discuss her Superbowl Halftime incident from the week before. You can watch that, and “Bein’ Quirky with Zooey Deschanel” from the same episode (Bjork guest appearance included), below.
