But where that U2 frontman gave up speechifying in the 80s, opting instead to write the same song over and over and sew American flags in his clothes, Madonna’s got no such wisdom. The singer, on the Eastern Europe leg of the Sticky and Sweet tour, told the crowd of 60,000...

"He is the littlest man ... he wants this show to go perfect, and it doesn't, but it's never his fault," Saltzman says. But he's referring of his character Greg, surely not the late Sonny Bono, in the sketch duo 7 Minutes in Heaven.
