Blondie's Debbie Harry says she is angry at Madonna for being so bloody successful. If it wasn't for Madge, Harry reckons she would have been a lot more successful, both as a solo artist and with Blondie in recent years.
That said, she recognises other things - mainly business deal problems - have also hindered her career, and admits Madonna has been extra good at that stuff. She said: "I had been performing all along, with one or two solo albums. But we could not get back with Blondie because of legal problems. We had publishing issue, messy record company deals, management problems. But I think that is one of the things that Madonna was very smart about. That is something she can be commended for. She says that she listens to me for inspiration and I have to take that as a compliment. But we are vastly different".
