Did Madonna Get S'mikha Before Me??

Shmuley lets the Material Girl have it here. However, the most memorable line from the article has to do with Jacko. Shmuley writes, "It is no secret that I spent two years in close friendship with Michael Jackson which I now regard as one of the great mistakes of my life... But my embarrassment comes from my insecurity in believing that I needed a celebrity pairing in order to be an effective exponent of Judaism, and that the Jewish faith needed a celebrity spokesman in order to garner mainstream credibility."

What kind of Jewish leader would ever get the idea of using a "celebrity pairing to be an effective exponent of Judaism"? -->
