Madonna With Pink Hair? YES!

Karl Erikson — Fri, 29 Aug 2008 22:02:00 GMT

You're going to think I'm making this up, but I swear it's the truth. Madonna has PINK HAIR.

See for yourself. Even with CGI you couldn't make this stuff up. Classic.

(Almost) Like A Virgin: Happy 50th Birthday Madonna!

sweatpantsmom — Sat, 16 Aug 2008 23:10:00 GMT

Okay, maybe you can't even mention her in the same sentence as the word 'virgin', but I still say Madonna looks pretty good for a 50-year-old mother of three. The Material Girl celebrates her half-century mark today, and birthday tributes are all over the web.

MSNBC.com says the pop icon surpasses the Beatles in terms of her musical influence. (Although they quickly point out that it's her "impact on the course of pop music that bests the Fab Four, not her sociological importance, songwriting skills or recording innovations.")

People.com has a photo gallery of Madonna's looks over the years that makes me want to get out my torn stockings and rubber bracelets.

USmagazine.com shows us other actresses who have also recently celebrated the big 5-0. Some of them look as good as Madonna, and some of them look, uh, worse.

CNN.com even has an online poll titled, "Madonna Turns 50: Is She Better Than Ever?" Sorry, Madge, but the current results say 74% NO, and 26% YES. Better get Gwyneth and your other pals to log on and vote.

ET.com is reporting that the Birthday Girl and husband Guy Ritchie celebrated last night by attending a service at a Kabbalah center in England. Like A Prayer!

Mommy Can You Wear Normal Clothes Please?

Sassy Smith — Sat, 19 Apr 2008 11:05:00 GMT

Do you often embarrass your child with your choice of attire? Well, Madonna is just like us (sorta?) and does that very thing - embarrasses her kid. Daughter Lourdes sometimes doesn't like mom's clothing!

Madge sometimes wears comfort clothes - such as workout suits, sweats, and trackpants, but her 11-year-old Lourdes, often tells her that these clothes embarrass her. The pop icon says that she's aware that she dresses in a way that makes Lourdes uncomfortable, saying that she will ask if Madonna could "use normal clothes," but Mama Madonna won't change her style and be more "traditional" for her child.

Come on, Madonna is a normal mom right? I mean she vacuums in high heeled ~~streetwalker~~ boots - and that's how most of us do our housework. As a matter of fact, I've got my thigh-highs on right now as I'm writing this and then I'm going to get up and scrub the toilet. Who said being a SAHM isn't glamorous?

Madonna Scraps Adoption of Little Girl

Sassy Smith — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 12:01:00 GMT

Pop icon Madonna, had hoped to adopt a two-year old Malawian girl - named Mercy- but red tape has left the singer frustrated and she's opted to give up the fight.

Although mountains of red tape have prevented Madonna from adopting the toddler, she will continue to support the child financially from Britain. Her adoption of Malawian son David Banda has been finalised. Madge's family and friends were certain she'd be bringing home the little girl, but it's just not going to happen.

A friend commented, "Madonna wanted to adopt a boy and a girl. But Mercy's relatives objected and she had a complete turnaround.

"Everyone was stunned. Normally nothing will stop her. She now believes David will be the last child she adopts. Instead she will support orphans through her charity."

Instead, the Material Girl has chosen Iggy Pop to "serenade" her with her hits. Her rep had no comment on why she decided not to perform.

Other inductees include, Leonard Cohen, John Mellencamp, The Dave Clark Five, The Ventures and Little Walter.

Madonna Interview: Music,Motherhood & More

Sassy Smith — Sat, 08 Mar 2008 16:02:00 GMT

Madonna still workin' it at 49, sat down with Ingrid Sischy for Interview magazine - the busy mother of three, who has an album dropping in April had lots to say.

Here's part of that interview:

On working with Justin Timberlake:
"I really enjoy writing with Justin... We had psychoanalytic sessions whenever we wrote songs first. We'd sit down and we'd start talking about situations. And then we'd start talking about issues or problems or relationships with people. That was the only way, because you know, writing together with somebody is very intimate... that was fun, because he's open and he's got talent. He's a songwriter. I haven't worked with a lot of songwriters where I'm instantly connected and start riffing and playing with the rhythm of the words. He's as interested in the rhythm of the words as the meaning of the words."

On adopting her son David:
"He wouldn't have lived if I hadn't taken him. It's not even a possibility."

On gaining perspective:
"We live very comfortable lives, and unfortunately, we have to have our noses rubbed in other people's pain and suffering to realize how much we have and how much we have to be grateful for."

On bringing daughter Lourdes with her to Malawi:
"She spent several weeks working in the orphanages, particularly one with newborn children, and most of them were HIV-positive. She so came into her own and was so responsible and stayed for eight hours every day and worked tirelessly. I thought, Why am I babying her so much? She's capable of so much more. We don't let kids do anything. We think, Oh, they're kids — they can't take care of other kids; they can't do this; they can't do that. And after you go to Africa, you drop all that silliness."

On freedom:
"Freedom is a funny word because when we think we're free, we're not really. I think freedom is quite illusory... When I stop thinking about myself all the time and put other people before me on a regular basis, that's real freedom. When I can love unconditionally... then that's real freedom. So it's something to strive for, but I'm not free."

Harsh Words for Madonna's Directorial Debut, Even By Our Standards

sweatpantsmom — Fri, 15 Feb 2008 21:35:00 GMT

Okay, here at FameCrawler we're not known for being kind to celebrities. Take Madonna for instance - it's always easy to make fun of her robotic yoga-body and I've probably made a crack or two about how awful "Swept Away" was (can you blame me?)

But this review for "Filth and Wisdom", Madonna's directorial debut that recently opened the Berlin Film Festival, was particularly cruel.

Freakin' funny as hell and I'm going to tape it on my wall, but cruel.

Some excerpts:

"Madonna has been a terrible actor in many, many films and now...she has graduated to being a terrible director."

"She has made a movie so incredibly bad that Berlin festivalgoers were staggering around yesterday in a state of clinical shock, deathly pale and mewing like maltreated kittens."

"She is also the producer and co-author of the script. If she'd done the location catering as well, they'd have had a Jonestown situation on their hands."

What Do Britney Spears & "Dr. Alex Karev" From Grey's Anatomy Have In Common?

Sassy Smith — Sat, 02 Feb 2008 22:01:00 GMT

Grey's Anatomy "Dr. Alex Karev" - played by actor Justin Chambers has something in common with Britney Spears. Wanna take a stab at what it is? Let me tell you....

Both are at UCLA in the psych ward. No kidding. Chambers, a married dad with five children, voluntarily checked himself in. His rep said of the actor: "he's exhausted and suffers from a sleeping disorder. He went in voluntarily to get some help."

The 37-year-old is married to Keisha Chambers and their kids are: Isabella, 11, twins Maya and Kaila, 9, Eva, 6, and Jackson, 5. Sheesh, no wonder the man can't sleep - he's got a football team of kids! Hopefully he gets some well needed rest and hey, if he gets hungry, maybe Sam Lutfi will bring him some In-N-Out.

Dude, becareful, Britney might be in the next room. Is that mean? Whatever.

Oh and just a little FYI, Justin is on the Victoria's Secret 'What is Sexy' list, which, sure I suppose he is sexy. Although, *ahem*, I had no idea who the guy was. Apparently I'm one of two people who do not watch Grey's Anatomy.

Who Punched Madonna In The Face?

Sassy Smith — Thu, 24 Jan 2008 12:03:00 GMT

Madonna is sporting some black eyes....who punched her? Perhaps a doctor? And by punched, I mean, the Material Girl looks like she's been under the knife to freshen up maybe?

Madonna was also spotted back in early December (leaving a medical building) with bruising around her eyes, trying her best to hide beneath big sunglasses. That photo sparked rumors that she may have had some work done then.

I say if that's what she wants to do, then all the power to her!

Thirsty? Madonna Spends $10,000 a Month on Kabbalah Water

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 10 Jan 2008 17:15:00 GMT

And I thought my $20-a-week Starbucks habit was out of control. Madonna reportedly has picked up the expensive habit of drinking only specially-blessed Kabbalah water which costs around $5 per bottle. Contributing to the expense of the water is the fact that the Material Girl has to have cartons of it shipped to wherever she's staying.

According to a friend of the singer, “Madonna drinks a lot of water — that’s one of her fitness secrets...And this is the only stuff she will touch.”

As the article points out, Madonna turns 50 in August and still looks great, so maybe there's something to the 'miracle water' claims. Kabbalah cappuccino, anyone?

Madonna's Directorial Debut

Sassy Smith — Mon, 31 Dec 2007 12:02:00 GMT

Madonna made her debut as a director and her movie will make it's premiere at the annual Berlin film festival in February. Who even knew Madonna made a movie?

The movie titled, Filth and Wisdom, starring Eugene Hutz, Richard E. Grant and Stephen Graham (um, never heard of any of them), will be shown in the Panorama section, outside of the main film competetion. No word on whether the Material Girl herself will attend the premiere.

The event runs from Feb. 7-17, and is the first major European film festivals of the new year.

I think Madonna should stick to music-her world debut of '4 Minutes to Save the World' is making a splash!

The Un-Christmas Dinner at Madonna's House

Karen — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 14:09:00 GMT

Recent gossip surrounding Madonna and Christmas (whether she celebrates or whether she doesn't) had me confused until I realized she is crazy. Personally I could care less if her family celebrates Christmas, since it's something I'd love to quit but only because of the running around. I wish Santa was real so I could sit back and enjoy the holiday!

This story caught my attention and I heard a scream as I finished reading it: "No Wire Hangers!"

Yes, Madonna reminds me of a ghost of Christmas past -- Joan Crawford.

Oh I hope it's not like that in their house, but this tidbit from "a friend" had me concerned:

"They entertain beautifully, but it isn't what you would call conventional,'' a friend says.

"A housekeeper will set out a great big table covered in stuff, all macrobiotic, which no one dares eat unless Madonna tucks in.

"They're all terrified of her.''

Apparently Madonna never strays from her daily 2-3 hour workout. So there's speculation she'll fit that in as well. I guess if she doesn't have to cook a giant turkey and stuffing, she's got the time.

Maybe she's on to something, but it sounds miserable to me. Hurry up Lourdes and write a book.

Madonna Wins Court Battle Concerning Her Son David Banda!

Sassy Smith — Sat, 15 Dec 2007 13:03:00 GMT

The Material Girl, has apparently won her court battle concerning her adopted orphaned son, David Banda!

Madonna was seen leaving Cipriani restaurant in London Thursday evening and she seemed quite happy by the look on her smiling face.

A Malawi official was quoted as saying, "Mrs. Ritchie presents a confident and able parent. There are clear indications that David is becoming a happy, secure toddler. It is in the best interest of the child to remain in her care."

This has been a long time coming for Madonna, as she began the adoption process back in October of 2006. She was granted temporary foster care at the time. This past September, she was paid a visit by Malawi adoption officials, who had to decide if she was a fit mother. Madonna definately has a beautiful little family!

We have at least one pop star who knows how to be a good mom! Not naming any names.

Christmas Not Completely Cancelled At Madonna's Household

Sassy Smith — Mon, 03 Dec 2007 22:34:00 GMT

There is a Santa after all! There may not be any Christmas in the Madonna/Ritchie household, but there will be some gift giving going on!

Madonna's husband, Guy Ritchie told Extra, that he and Madonna have amended their tradtions with their children, Lourdes, 11, Rocco, 7, and David, 2 but that there is still room for a few presents. "The kids are only allowed three presents. So by the time they get to the third present they've had their sugar hit. As long as the kids get three presents at Christmas, everyone's being happy." I suppose if you're Madonna's kid, three presents could be quite awesome!

There have been reports that the family had converted to Judaism, which holds Kabbalah under it's religious unbrella, but Guy says, not so. "I don' think anyone's converted to Judaism in my family. I have no converted to Judaism and neither has my wife. Sheesh, dontcha just hate gossip?

Merry Christmas Madonna and family!

No Harry Potter For Madonna's Daughter, Lourdes

Sassy Smith — Fri, 30 Nov 2007 18:03:00 GMT

Previous reports indicated that Madonna's daughter, Lourdes was being sought after for a lead role in the new Harry Potter movie, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, but producers have squashed that rumor.

Earlier sources had said that the studio wanted Lourdes to join the cast of the movie and that she was eager to accept the part. Not so says an insider at Warner Brothers, who insists that the casting for the film are complete and that Lola (Lourdes) is not part of the cast. "Casting is complete on the film, and she is not a part of it," the insider said.

Harry Potter and Madonna?

Sassy Smith — Sat, 24 Nov 2007 21:05:00 GMT

It seems Warner Bros wants music icon, Madonna's, 11 year old daughter, Lourdes, in the next Harry Potter moive- The Half-Blood Prince.

Sources say that the studio bigwigs have asked Lourdes, also nicknamed Lola, to join the cast and that she really wants to do the role. It's a once in a lifetime deal!

“An executive at Warners wanted to cast Lola in the last Potter film and has renewed his interest for the next movie. Lola would love to do it - she is a huge fan,” a source told The Sun. “Lola has definitely inherited her mother’s hunger for fame. After all her recent public appearances, looking more like a sophisticated teen than a child, the attention on her is really growing. Offers have poured in - film offers, sponsorship.”

Madge's daughter has also been offered a role in a kids' musical in development by Warner Bros. As well, there's H&M's offer to get her to launch a line of kids' clothes designed by Lourdes. However, mom Madonna has big reservations about all of this and feels her daughter is just too young for the "fame game." I can't say I blame her. Seeing how the "child stars" of today sometimes turn out, would make any parent never want their kid to be in the spotlight!

No Christmas For Madonna's Family!

Sassy Smith — Fri, 23 Nov 2007 14:02:00 GMT

Bahumbug! Madonna cancelled Christmas and refuses to give her kids presents.

VIDEO AFTER THE READ

Guy Ritchie, Madonna's husband, said they do not allow their 7 year old son, Rocco, two year old son David and 11 year old Lourdes to celebrate the Christian holiday. Madge is a devote follower of Kabbalah, a mystical off shoot of Judaism. Guy told BANG Showbiz at the premiere of Fred Clause, "We cancelled Christmas two years ago in our household. Once we canceled it, we stopped all the presents, and once we stopped all the presents we started enjoying ourselves more."

Kabbalah followers only celebrate Jewish holy days. They don't recognize Christmas or Easter because they don't believe that Jesus is the son of God. Madonna got involved in Kabbalah in the late 90's and has spent $2.4 million dollars promoting her religion around the world in the past few years. She also changed her name to the ancient Hebrew name of Esther and has written a series of children's books based on the faith's teachings.

Well Madonna used to like Santa because she sang a song about it. And here's a Christmas present from me to you because I'm not cancelling Christmas.

Madonna's Mother-In-Law Gives Her Rave Reviews On TV

Sassy Smith — Fri, 09 Nov 2007 21:01:00 GMT

Madonna's mother in law, Shireen Ritchie (Guy Ritchie's stepmother), said nice things about her on GMTV, perhaps when I said "rave" I was a bit too enthusiastic, so we'll stick with "nice". Well gosh, she's not going to say bad things about her on TV is she?

Shireen Ritchie who is a Conservative Councillor in Britain, a member of Cabinet For Family and Children's Services for the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea-now that's quite a handle-said about having one of the most famous adopted grandsons in the world, "It's working out very well, they're wonderful and loving parents and he's a very lucky little boy." I suppose that response doesn't sound too canned. Of course there are mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law who actually like each other!

Madonna herself does do good things for charity, we do have to give her credit there. She posted a message on her Raising Malawi website asking for volunteers and donations to help Malawi children, saying, "every little bit helps", which is very true, every little bit does count. On a side note, Madonna was busy having dinner with Stella McCartney (jewelry maker of one legged pendants) last night. Thought you'd want to know that.
