Madonna steals MTV awards show
Friday, November 4, 2005 Posted: 1140 GMT (1940 HKT)

-- Madonna stole the show at the MTV Europe Music Awards on Thursday with the first live televised performance of her new single "Hung Up," emerging from a giant glitter ball wearing purple leather boots and matching leotard.
The 47-year-old queen of pop rocked the Atlantic Pavilion on one of the music industry's most important nights outside the United States, and said she still got a kick out of playing to a crowd.
"After I fell off my horse it was amazing to be able to get up and dance," she told Reuters backstage, referring to a riding accident in August when she cracked three ribs and broke her collarbone and a hand.
She confessed she had feared that energetic performances like the one in Lisbon would no longer be possible because of the injuries.
"Being in front of all the people, waiting for it to come up, and waiting to see the audience, my heart was just pumping out of my chest," Madonna said in a brief interview.
Madonna will be hoping "Hung Up", the first single from her new album "Confessions on a Dancefloor", puts her back on top of the charts after her last album failed to sell well.
"I've been making records for over 20 years. I've had an incredible run, highs and lows, but I keep going."
Irish rocker Bob Geldof was given the humanitarian Free Your Mind Award after staging what was billed as rock music's greatest day with Live 8, a global anti-poverty concert watched by hundreds of millions of people.
Madonna, handing Geldof the prize, called him "my hero".
"If you can't criticize the president in our country, who can you criticize?" he said.
Williams was in typically exuberant form, taking a dive into the crowd during his performance and joking at the expense of none other than Madonna.
"She's amazing. She's an absolute legend. I can't believe she's 89 and looks like that," he said.
Hosting the event was spoof Kazakh television presenter Borat, a guise adopted by British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen who is renowned for his risque, politically incorrect humor.
His opening gag on the night was no exception.
"It was very brave of MTV to start the show with a transvestite," he joked, referring to Madonna.

No nyt katsoin sen ihan telkkarista, niin ei tarvinnu ladata. Sumeen hieno esitys kyllä. Palautti taas roimasti uskoani ja ihailuani Madonnaan. Nuotissa M tosin ei pysynyt, mutta sekin on vain oikeastaan osa viehätystä. Hitto vieköön.
