The Catholic League is asking NFL to ban Madonna from performing at the Super Bowl 2012, which she recently agreed to do.
Bill Donohue, member of The Catholic League, wrote in an official latter to the NFL, saying they "would do well to drop any plans it may have about having Madonna perform during the Super Bowl." Donohue supports his statement based on what happened back in 2004 when the NFL invited 'N Sync's JC Chasez to sing during the halftime of the Pro Bowl, only to shut down the deal due to some suggestive lyrics.
"The NFL cannot expect Catholics to be treated any different," the Catholic League says. "For decades, Madonna has blatantly offended Christians, especially Catholics. Her offensive lyrics, lewd behavior and misappropriation of sacred symbols are reason enough. Worse, Madonna has repeatedly ridiculed the heart and soul of Christianity: Jesus, Our Blessed Mother, the Eucharist and the Crucifixion."
We don't see Madonna banned from such an important event just because some random group calls it but some publicity for the Catholic League can't hurt and more than likely, this was the true reason behind their demands.by FW Editor |
