Madonna claims she stopped hunting when a pheasant she shot fell to her feet and started pouring out blood.
“I was mad for shooting a couple of years ago,” she tells Tatler magazine. “I loved my bespoke outfits and everything. It was so much fun. That all changed when a bird dropped in front of me that I’d shot. It wasn’t dead. It got up, and it was really suffering. Blood was gushing out of its mouth, and it was struggling . . . I haven’t shot since . . . I realized I had a kind of bloodlust, and was manically shooting things and trying to kill as many birds as possible.”
I don’t really care if she hunts or not, I’m just glad that she was quoted as saying she “had a kind of bloodlust, and was manically shooting things and trying to kill as many birds as possible.” Usually when I picture Madonna I picture a bony corpse trying desperately to look sexy, but thanks to this article I can replace that with an image of a bony corpse trying desperately to shoot birds to death. The difference is subtle, but one involves a pair of hot shorts, and the other involves a cocked rifle and a lot of foaming at the mouth.

Funny – that didn’t stop her in the music industry.

Thanks, Madonna, for that beautiful mental image of a bloody-beaked dying pheasant flopping around at your feet. I feel like I just finished an “Old Yeller” marathon. Someone pass the anti-depressants.

Hell I could have told you all about this years ago, HRC has been out hunting with Madonna many times. Madonna quit because she kept chipping her teeth on the bird shot. She never could clean the kills properly. Now hillary on the other hand can strip the guts out of a pheasant in less time than it takes her to say “vast right wing conspiracy.”

So did Madonna tell the UK

I love how she calls it “shooting” and not “hunting”. Because she so British now. What a joke. I’ve never really respected her, her music can give you cancer and as of lately looking at her makes me want to become a monk. But what really pisses me off is that since they got married, Guy has done zero good movies. Her inability to do anything worth a damn has rubbed off onto him. Thanks Madonna for sucking the life out of one of the only decent mainstream filmmakers around.

When the hell is the Pope going to put a hit out on her Kabballah loving, Anglo-worshipping ass???

she has serious issues..although we all should have suspected something was up when she was erotically flopping around on stage in her like a virgin days in her “bespoke” bridal gown as a teen…then a few years later she was “mad for” seducing children i guess..flasback to her video where she was wearing lingerie and whoring it up with that sitting chair …i could go on and on…bottom line..issues and a bad british “accent”

So she just realized that living things bleed from bullet holes you put in them?

I’m not a hunter, but this seems contrived. I don’t think it’s typical to shoot a bird and have it land at your feet. That’s why they have bird dogs – to find the dead pheasand and bring it back. She paints this dramatic picture of the bird fighting for life right in front of her. Bull.
One reason not to shoot at birds straight overhead is that gunfire comes back down. I’ve never heard of a hunter being pelted by his own buckshot.
sirokai | December 5, 2005 at 3:33 pm
This is a contrived story. She must have shot the pheasant as someone was holding it in front of her. I wonder if the guy holding it was spouting blood at the mouth too.
Off topic, didn’t we read that Madonna cannot make money off of “Frozen” because it’s copyright infringement? The song is part of the “Thunderpuss Megamix” that’s playing on TV now.

if she had a bloodlust why didnt she get an orgasm when she saw the bird? i think this is one of her smaller weird ass obsessions. besides if she saw the bird bleeding what was she doing there just watching it why didnt she just shoot it. no one cares that u dont like “shooting” madonna. did anyone notice she has the ugliest hairstyle?

I shot Madonna once. She fell to my feet and started doing whacked out yoga poses and chanting Kabbalistic hymns.

What I was hoping this post was going to say was, “Madonna claims she stopped wearing fishnet stockings on stage once she realized that 50-year-old legs do not belong in tights.”

Fake British accent, killing pheasants, wearing lamb fetus http://www.furisdead.com/feat-karakul.asp?pf=true, she is truly the decadent rich that I despise. She’s approaching Michael Jackson territory. Naahhh, on second thought, she’s already there.

Someone should’ve told her it’s much easier when you understand that birds are actually highly-evolved dinosaurs.
Hell, she should know…she was around to watch the entire process.

This is a great website.
I’m glad to find out that I’m not the only one appalled at celebrities superficility

hunting is all about the bespoke outfits. I imagine they really add a layer of glam when you’re sitting half frozen in a duck blind at 5 AM.
danb | December 6, 2005 at 7:57 am
Damn, I originally read the first line as “Madonna claims she stopped hunting when a *peasant* she shot fell to her feet and started pouring out blood.”
And it was such an awesome article until I realised. :-/
Popz9 | December 6, 2005 at 3:05 pm
sshh people… it’s part of the cult rules.. first shoot a bird.. then chant over it, then rub some blood on your face, dance round it and make it your next music video…
sugarfree | December 8, 2005 at 11:28 pm
Which did she realized sooner? A dying bleedy pheasant on her feet? Or she is just too old to wear that ridiculous thing she wore in her video?
TheLuciousDeluxe | December 9, 2005 at 1:59 am
I think a few marbles fell at her feet at some point too.
emotionsmama | December 20, 2005 at 11:09 am
What blatant hypocrisy. Madonna is a supposed devotee of yoga, whose sutras include “ahimsa” – or NON VIOLENCE – as a rule to live by, yet all the while she’s been killing animals for FUN. What an absolute embarrassment to those who practice yoga for REAL. Also hard to believe that a grown woman is only now learning that death and suffering are real. I feel sorry for this unevolved poser.
