I think she's quite brilliant and talented, myself.
I won't deny that Madonna has talent. However, her talent doesn't lie in singing or acting ... or writing children's books, as far as that goes. Madonna knows how to package herself. When her record sales were not as high as they had been, she decided to have photos of herself naked on the streets of New York published in a book called
Sex. The book was a success, and her record sales went up again as well. Yes, that's talent. It's a good head for business. Now she's trying to reform her image by writing children's books because of her children. I guess that this venture is supposed to make Lourdes and Rocco forget that Mommy is a huge, slutty pop diva.
On the subject of Moo's children's books, I found this list which I found amusing:
