AceShowbiz - There it is, following speculation after speculation, NBC has decided not to show pop star Madonna suspended from a giant cross and wearing a crown of thorns when the network airs a special of her "Confessions" tour next month.
A source close to the network announced Thursday Oct 19th it had revised the two-hour concert special, set to air November 22nd at 8 p.m. ET. The source explained further that the portion of the "Live to Tell" song in which Madonna sings suspended from a giant cross and wearing a crown of thorns will not be shown in the broadcast.
Instead, cameras will cut to other shots or images while Madonna is on the cross and then refocus on the singer once she steps away from the cross to finish the song. In the meantime, a spokeswoman for the pop icon could not immediately be reached for comment on the matter.
