Of course I didn't just find out; I watched it on the news the day after it happened. But I had forgotten (or maybe never knew, I admit) that Madonna, of all people, had condemned O'Connor for it. This was the era of Madonna's "Justify My Love" video, her
Sex book, and her unwatchable softcore movie with Willem Dafoe, and she was worried about ultraconservative Pope JP2? Jesus Christ (indeed)...
And yes, Sinéad was right. She was right and EVERYBODY ELSE was wrong.
ETA: And FUCK the boomers who gave her shit at that Bobfest in '92. Ironically, the same kind of people who gave Dylan shit during the '66 tour ("Judas!").
