Mashup

"For nearly a quarter of a century, Madonna, who turned 50 this year, has been a music megastar, a pop culture provocateur and a global brand name."1 However there are new mega stars turning heads. "Barack Obama is reveling in presidential power and influence unseen in Washington for decades" 2 and Miuccia Prada, "the Oracle of via Fogazzaro has always been way out ahead of the pack."3

There is no stopping there stars and they seem capable to do anything and succeed. "Barely 100 days in office, the U.S. president and his Democratic Party have firm control over the White House and Congress and the ability to push through ambitious plans. Obama already is assured a legacy at the top of all three branches of government -- executive, legislative and judicial." 4

Miuccia, "Milan's most aware designer has thrown a wrench in the fashion works," concluded Suzy Menkes in the International Herald Tribune. "What was new? Everything ... For all the weirdness of her vision [she is] light years ahead of the rest."5

Madonna like Miuccia and Barack Obama once she is in power she wont stop and will only continue to do more and get better. What she really wants to do is direct, "I've been in relationships with a lot of filmmakers". "I've been awfully envious of them. I guess I got tired of just wishing I was doing something and decided to do it."6
