Rock stars can change the world?

What is the voice of popularity worth?

So, you've probably heard that Madonna was booed at a concert, but she wasn't booed because her music sucked. Instead, Madonna made some comments regarding racism and homophobia.

While I empathize with all of Madonna's comments, I wonder if they are helpful? Ultimately, isn't it human nature to detest lecturing?

If racism against Gypsies - in this instance - is something Madonna wants to take on as a cause, wouldn't it be more productive to just demonstrate her affinity with the Gypsy culture?

Or, does her action create a conversation that ultimately helps Gypsy culture?
