Whitney Houston. She seemed so cool and together in the 80s and even in the early 90s, but from what I've heard, she sounds like a mess.

How about Boy George?  Even though he was a freak with that girl look, he was still bearable to watch.  After seeing him on VH1 last month with that painted on crap, I can't see why I ever liked his music.

Then again there is always Pee-Wee Herman.  He just changed careers from performing in movies to performing in movie theatres.

Then there is Sean Penn.  After doing such hits as Taps and Fast Times, he got married and lost his career.

There is always MC Hammer.  I still expect to see his face on a carton of milk.

Oh please Boy George! Ugh! :P

Madonna

She was cool in her early career, in the 1980's. She had raw talent and managed it successfully. She was cool in the way she danced, the way she dressed with her own original and awesome sense of style; her videos were a regular "must see".

I think the way Madonna handled her controversial exposure in the 1980's was rather tame in comparison to the "in your face" cheap, ssslutiness of Britney Spears and the ilk of today. Now, even Madonna can't keep-up with today's tawdriness to the degree to which she finds herself joining in the low-class spectacle, further degrading her fading image.

Alas, Madonna's time has passed.

Madonna may have her sporadic day in the sun, but she is no longer cool, in my opinion.

Madonna hasn't been cool with the youth culture, as in "really cool" and cutting edge, since 1987.  Now she still had some cool and hip qualities from 1988 to 1992, during her Like a Prayer and Vogue period, but she was already fading away.  I think 1992 was when she realeased that sex book of hers or whatever it was.  But in my opinion she's been yesterday's news, (with the youth culture) since 1993.

But your post proved a point of mine that I made in another thread when I brought up Madonna and the double standard applied to Britney and Christina.  You know that Madonna acted just as "ssslutty" back in the 80's as anyone else around today, actually more then anyone around today.  But you liked her music back in the days, and now you're older and you can't admit to the fact that you liked women that bucked the rules and acted cheap because you feel the pressure of setting a good example to the kids around today.

Madonna liked to tick off mainstream conservative America, as so many muscians love to do.  And Madonna acted a whole lot worse then Britney or Christina or whoever.  It's all about intentionally making mainstream conservative America angry and selling lots of albums and getting a lot of press.  She knew that people like the dual image of woman, i.e., the innocent school girl and the wh*re of Babylon.

I know that?  ???

I simply said:

Madonna was no angel, but she wasn't quite to the level of crass as today's "pop tarts". Keep in mind I'm speaking of 1980's Madonna and that this is simply my opinion.

Did I say all that or are you making assumptions? Yeap, you're assuming an awful lot.

That is simply a matter of opinion, yours, of course.

By the way, I don't think I've proven any point of yours.

Hmm . . . Nice analysis Howard.  ::)

With Madonna she had that girl next door look - she was naughty but there was a sense of innocence at the same time. Of course, that's not there anymore . . .

I thought Madonna looked good in that "Take A Bow" music video back in 1994-1995.
