The 2008 Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame Induction Awards were held at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City last night. Among the honorees, presenters and attendees were Madonna, Iggy Pop, Justin Timberlake, Joan Jett, Christy Turlington, Ed Burns, Patti LaBelle, Michael J. Fox and Seth Meyers.
During the ceremony, Madonna, who was presented by Justin Timberlake, didn't worry about whether her career as a pop star and sex symbol qualified her as an important figure in the narrowly defined rock 'n' roll genre. In true Madonna style, she presented unquestionable rocker (and fellow Michigan native), Iggy Pop, who, backed by the Stooges, brought down the house with punk rock versions of her hit songs “Burnin’ Up” and “Ray of Light.”
