One more that didn't make the list
You know Madonna has run out of ways to reinvent herself when she has to resort to stealing African babies for attention.

It beats being neglected in an orphanage with over 500 children. Hell, if only she would adopt me.
Posted by: jay at October 23, 2006 09:15 PMI know. I was being flip. ;-)
Posted by: Karol at October 23, 2006 09:42 PMWell, at least you didn't call her "grandma" this time...
Posted by: Eric at October 24, 2006 12:15 AMGrandma fits. It's good to have a grandma worth over a 100 mil anyday.
Posted by: jay at October 24, 2006 03:23 AMWhat one person calls "reinventing herself," another person may call being insanely popular and successful for 25 years. Not a bad track record...
Posted by: New York Hotlist at October 24, 2006 09:39 AMYeah, but if the desire to stay popular past a person's ability to produce quality work persists, one gets....
Michael Jackson
Liz Taylor
Liza Minelli
Steven Segal
Fat Elvis
etc.
Of course, there are the rare "full circle" types like William Shatner, but mostly these won't-fade-away celebrities just decompose in the spotlight. (I attribute Shatner's rebound to being something like what happens to milk as it becomes cheese. And of course in his case the analogy seems particularly apt.)
Posted by: Mark Poling at October 24, 2006 10:17 AMOh, come on! Only gay men and 8 year old girls are madonna fans. I would be embarassed if I were her. Sure the money is great, but her music sucks and there is no movie she can't tank.
