From today's Daily Mirror:

Mistress Madge!
EXCLUSIVE SHE CRACKS WHIP ON JT & TIMBA
02/02/2008

She may be pushing the big 5-0, but we always knew Madonna would never grow old gracefully.

The Queen of Pop’s latest transformation will see her don a dominatrix-style latex catsuit in a raunchier-than-ever video for new single 4 Minutes To Save The World.

We can reveal that in the promo Madge plays - wait for it - a pimp who rescues the planet in an impressive 240 seconds.

And it gets better...

Justin Timberlake and US producer Timbaland play her bitches.

Nope, we’re not sure quite what the f’hell it’s all about either.

No doubt her three children will be particularly thrilled to see their mum whipping the two Timbs into shape - and belting out lyrics like: "Come on boy, I’d like to show my addictive control", and "You’re mine. Just give it up, can’t get control."

The video has been shot over three days in a top-secret location in West London, and included a gruelling all-night shoot yesterday.

In the sexually charged video, Madge cracks the whip and gets her slaves, Justin and Timbaland, to do whatever she wants as she towers over their quivering bodies in killer heels.

Careful there Madge, you don’t want to do yourself an injury.

The 49-year-old has brought in her fashion-god pals Dolce & Gabbana to create the no-holds-barred outfits.

She’s also roped in the winning team behind her Confessions Live sell-out tour in 2006 - including Grammy award-winning Swedish director Jonas Akerlund.

We’re told: "One of the highlights in the video is the nightclub scene.

"Timbaland eyes Madge up in the darkened room, and they disappear off to get close.

"The camera cuts to Madonna challenging JT to a dance-off and it is just magnificent.

"They get up close and personal in the battle of the gyrating hips, with sweat dripping all over their bodies."

Guy Ritchie’s gonna love it. We think not

the Return of Dita

Disgusting.

Timbaland and Timberlake as Madonna's sex toys. *shudders*

I couldn't have said it any better than that. Madonna, wow, what the fuck? That whole video concept say Stupid all over it. It just seems pathetic to me.

I won't hold much judgement until I ACTUALLY see the video. Anyway, I'm surprised many are criticizing the concept. Everyone should know that Madonna pretty much rides on the public's feelings. Back in the mid 90s, people thought she had mellowed into motherhood and had nothing creative to offer, so she gave Ray of Light. When pop/dance acts like NSYNC and Britney Spears were taking over radio, she put out Music and all of a sudden started wearing a shirt that said Britney's name. And when people turned away from American Life and wanted the "old Madonna" back, she put out COADF. Now that radio has somehow been anti-Madonna for a while(even with COADF) and the Timbaland sound is hot, why not embrace it? I can see everyone's arguments, but I think that she's doing what helped her have the career she's had, and that's being able to fit into and adapt to the pop culture at the moment. I think that's what makes her so great. Besides, the direction is very Bowie "Let's Dance" era,in my opinion. If you want to score a for sure radio hit, why not join them?

The question is: why does she need a US hit? She has had numerous.

For once let her focus on the music and not on charts. She has the luxury to do that now, since she has established herself as the most successful female recording artist. And it is not as if she needs a hit to tour. I wish she and MJ would realize this.

I'm excited! Can't wait to see the video. Madonna has been in the business for 25+ years now or however long it's been. She know's what she's doing.

I hope this thing is worse than Janet-Timbo fiasco.. So, that this shock garbage ends..

If it's your life, do what you do.. Don't play with taboos.. If you think it's controversial, then don't milk it for attention. Live-it alone.. In the privacy of her British Castle's tourture chamber..

Madonna has said in numerous interviews since at least 89 that she makes entertainment for adults, and if parents don't want their children to see it than they have to be a parent and make a stand. How is that being hypocritical?

A commerical? She's makeing a music video.

Madonna as dominatrix, cool.

Madonna as pimp to Justin and Timbaland...dumb! Almost sounds like she is making a bad album on purpose!

Imagining JT in nothing but bondage gear and a ballgag did get me a little hard, though

i wish this old repulsive talentless hag would just go away already

i think everytime someone says this, the Gods play a cruel trick on them and give her more success.

i hope not

I can't wait for the video stills. I can see the jokes now.
Man Justin is an idiot. This just takes the cake.

I will be laughing my ass of when I see this joke of a video on YouTube.

As for Madonna, she was also desperate for attention, so this isn't much of a surprise.

My first thought was Janet's Feedback. Some kind of kinky world dominatrix thing.
