“Hard Candy”? I wonder if Madonna chose this name because of the movie?

My bet is Madonna was the "Global pop star blackmailed with 'highly sensitive' photographs."

Within a year, it will become clear that the only reason she opened them was that so she had a new source of men to pick up and bed.

Actually it is just more mindless materialism from the material overage rocker.

Referring to men and women as CANDY. Well it does fit madonna’s mindset.

The statement said that Hard Candy Fitness promises "the very best in innovative training methods," including "state of the art cardiovascular equipment," and an array of classes...

BTW, Crossfit is so effective it has been adopted and adapted by the USMC and Navy Seals.

"Rode hard" might be even better still.
