By the way, that thread is riddled with falsehoods. Just dumb stuff that shouldn't be propagated. I want to fly in and rebut the arguments, but I fear my delusion allergy will destroy me with so much nonsense in the air.
Don't care about the very obvious trolling about South Africa, which was actually giving me the cackle, but the stuff about when and why she got her honorific title is all wrong.
It had nothing to do with Michael, whom I do like. Smash Hits and Cosmo were calling her "Her Madgesty" and the "pop queen" in mid-'85. Billboard and Rolling Stone both followed suit well before the end of the decade, along with countless other publications and even news outlets. Oh well.
