Julie Burchill on Madonna’s sudden interest in Islam

Julie Burchill writes:

Whatever Madonna is, she’s not thick. Sadly, this can’t be said for all converts to Islam. (…)

But Madonna does have a Muslim boyfriend and there’s no telling what a certain type of woman will do to be popular with men.

I have often thought that for many Muslim women — converts especially, and those clowns who march about with banners suggesting that anyone who questions Islam should be beheaded — their “modesty” is simply an extreme form of showing off.
