Madonna!

From The Defamer...

Not one to be overshadowed by The Da Vinci Code's strong showing at the global box office this weekend, Madonna made sure to remind the world who's boss when it comes to heresy-drenched pop spectacles by mounting herself on a massive, mirror-tiled cross (picture courtesy of Towleroad) at last night's tour kick-off at The Forum.

A stunned, rapturous crowd of Gays quickly fell silent as her dutiful, Vogueing background dancers drove glowsticks through her palms and into the glittering crucifix with stacks of money. The throng was disappointed, however, when they learned they'd have to wait three days and pay an additional $400 a ticket to see the end of her act, when the dancers will roll away a one-ton sequined boulder, and she will emerge reborn from an onstage tomb at the Staples Center.
