Madonna Chastises Boy Scouts Over Stance on Gays During GLAAD Awards…While Wearing This Bizarre Outfit

NEW YORK (TheBlaze/AP) — Wearing a replica of one of the organization’s uniforms, Madonna called on the Boy Scouts to lift its ban on gays while also calling for a “revolution” to prevent discrimination and abuse of the gay, lesbian, transgender and bisexual community.

Speaking Saturday night at the GLAAD Media Awards, Madonna started off in a mischievous mood. She joked that she wanted to become a part of the Boy Scouts herself, but was turned down, even though she had the qualifications.

“I can build a fire. I know how to pitch a tent,” said Madonna, sporting a Boy Scouts troop leader hat and a blue shirt and shorts set that included replicas of Boy Scout badges.

“I can rescue kittens from trees. Most importantly, I know how to scout for boys,” she said, before adding, “I think they should change their stupid rules.”

The Boy Scouts of America does not permit openly gay people to serve in the organization — a decision that has come under increasing fire over the years.

Later, she got serious as she talked about the conflicts in the world and of the bullying of young gay, lesbian and transgender people.

“When I think about young kids in America who are being bullied and tortured, who are taking their own lives because they feel alone and judged, outcast and misunderstood, I want to sit down and cry a river of tears,” Madonna said.

Noting that she has teenagers herself, she said, “It’s an atrocity to me, I don’t accept it.”

Later she said, “I don’t know about you, but I can’t take this (expletive) anymore. That is why I want to start a revolution. It’s 2013 people. We live in America, land of the free and home of the brave? That’s a question, not a statement.”

Madonna was on hand to give the Vito Russo Award to CNN anchor Anderson Cooper. She lauded Cooper for standing up for the rights of others.

Also honored by the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation was the NBC musical series “Smash,” the documentary “How To Survive a Plague,” and “The Amazing Race.” Brett Ratner was also given the Ally Award — a turnaround from 2011, when the organization condemned the director for using an anti-gay slur, and he stepped down from a plan to direct the 2012 Academy Awards in the ensuing controversy.

Since then, Ratner has worked with the organization and made a public service announcement to promote equality.

    The sad fact is, on top of what she says and lifestyle she lives…she effects the life of a child, being a mom.
    I pray her child has a chance to get proper instruction and moral standing in their life. God willing.

    That’s just it Madonna… As a parent of two boys – Most importantly, I don’t want Boy Scout Leaders who ”know how to scout for boys”. They should keep the rules the same. You’re the one who is stupid.

    Excuse me but…

    Hasn’t the whole world been crabbing on an on and on about priests?

    Yet now they want to let a group with a KNOWN penchant be involved with boys?

    The hypocrisy of the left never ceases to stun me.

    Make up your bloody minds already.

    Madonna is the Den Mother from Hell! She’s a regular mama wolf. Growl, growl, baby! “Oh my Grandma what big teeth you have”! The question begs, “Are you ever going to get that gap toothed grin fixed”?

    First of all what air head would give a rats **** what Madonna thinks about anything? She’s too old to be a boy scout, she doesn’t support the boy scouts, and she’s the wrong gender to join anyways. So, who the hell cares about her opinion and he support for the gays. Fine, she supports gays…… And just equally as fine I DON”T… When are people going to stop worrying about what the stars opinions are and look in their own hearts for their stance on the issues? Geeeeeeze, doesn’t anybody have an individual mind anymore?

    i really wish she’d just go away instead of forcibly attaching herself to any type of controversy in a feeble attempt to convince herself she’s still relevant and while she’s at, how about putting on some clothes, you’re freakin 60 madonna,. nobody wants to see that crap anymore, infact, no ones wanted to see it in at least 20yrs, GROSS

    Being a religious organization, the Boy Scouts should have the right to their beliefs. If the Catholic Church had been stronger and banned Pedophiles from being priests, they would have been far better off than to protect those that prey on the young.

    Yes you do, Madonna….and so do gay pedophiles….especially young, impressionable boys quite eager to experiment with and explore their new found sexuality – budding roses ripe for the plucking.

    Who cares what Madonna says or thinks? She is looking more and more like Norma Desmond from “Sunset Boulevard” and is less relevant.

    @Logcabinrepublican….Her bizarre (Not bazaar) costume was chosen specificly to inflame..She’s the one ‘full of hate!”..And also I,m getting very tired of clowns like her coming out for the “Downtrodden” Spewing their bull about how intolerant “White “people are, Unfair to Gays, unfair to Blacks, unfair to Hispanics unfair to atheists, unfair to Muslims, unfair to Woman…If anyone bothers to notice it is the “Whites” that are now the “Downtrodden” And the “Whipping boys” for everyone who thinks they.ve ever been treated badly by society

      Yeah, well, Madonna won’t realize that until she is biyotch-slapped back-stage and thrown out of the line-up in favor of some rapper; then she’ll wimper on the way home, with no one to turn to…

      Maybe she’ll cruise around Central Park again to find someone willing to pound that puss-filled green clam…

      High School, ever since Blacks were given preference over whites in hiring, whites have been overlooked for promotion simply because of the color of their skin. Its not right either way. Black, brown, white or green and purple should all get equal opportunities. Nothing should be based on color or sex or anything but character and ability.

    I confess – I didn’t listen.

    There is nothing more depressing to me, than sitting through a lecture from a well known lunatic.

    This audience probably enjoyed it though, as so many of them are masochists….

    True media took my words when I saw this article. She irrelevant. Who cares what Madonna has to say. For that matter any Hollywood actor or singer. They are paid to entertain. If their movie or record sells then they did their job. I don’t understand people following the advice or listening to any of these people. For instance, The View. Whose view? Whoopie? She doesn’t nor do any of them live in the real world. They can go to Africa or anywhere else and come back to tell us what we must do to help while they live in their mansions and eat like royalty. If Madonna is so concerned she can afford the money to create her own scouting program that can abide by the rules she makes.

    Let’s see, do I want to live in a world with Madonna’s values (or lack there of) or with the Boy Scout values? Easy choice – a moral world of Boy Scouts.

    I wonder why libs like Madonna are so intolerant of the views and beliefs of others. Madonna, start your own “Do it if it feels good” organization and leave us alone.

    Honestly, who cares what Madonna does, says, or thinks. When you report this crap, you give her attention. You should be enlightening people about the satanic religion she belongs to.
