Madonna and the Whore
Pop singer and old curmudgeon Madonna is gracing yet another magazine cover. You'd think she was promoting a new album and her directorial film debut or something. This time it's the May issue of Nina Garcia's little 'zine Elle, both the US and UK editions. And the covers are different! The US version (left) is a modestly suggestive fashion pose, while the UK version features a scantily clad Madge using a rope like a stripper pole. The US headline says "Madonna Opens Up," while the UK edition promises an interview that is "intimate" and "outrageous." What does this say about our two nations? Do the Brits simply have a higher tolerance for 50-year-old lady bits? Are we just prudes? Larger image after the jump. [US image via Elle, UK via Stylefrizz]
