This is the French and Saunders (two insanely talented British comediennes, Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders) parody of the Britney/Madonna music video for “Me against the music”. They have countless other classic Madonna parodies, but I just love this one. Apart from it being very charming and hilarious, I think that this makes some points related to the absurdity of the spectacle of “performative lesbianism” and the planned obsolescence of the music industry that makes women compete with each other to maintain their sex appeal. Does gender performance have an age limit?
(The first part is a parody of the Madonna Gap Commercial, the video portion is directly after. Enjoy!)
