Of Madonna, NFL and airlines.

Of Madonna, NFL and airlines.
Madonna, just hours before set to take the stage canceled her concert saying, "I need to listen to my body."  And I agree. Just like some flights get canceled do to weather. I do get sick of this marketing of self entitlement "I paid for". Some fans were pissed. But why? If she were to have gone on stage, hurt herself or got sicker, it wouldn't have been one venue, but more as a result. 

I do get sick of humans treating others as if they have to be superhuman, especially those who are entertainers, actors or sports stars. But even outside fame, even just on the job, we are far too often taught to run our bodies into the ground which long term actually costs society more in medical bills. Madonna had every right to put her body first. For any fan mad at her for canceling, remember that bullshit, if you are called into work, knowing you have an injury, or are sick and know going in will simply make things worse. 

Humans, are not robots, regardless of fame or class.

Something we can agree on.  I'm sure Madonna's fans wouldn't want something like this to happen to her:
