Madonna Tells Gwyneth Paltrow to Shut Her Piehole

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 19:05:00 GMT

When Madonna announced her divorce a few weeks ago, good friend Gwyneth Paltrow rushed to support her. "She's a very good friend. I'm supporting her in all the ways that I can. I'm just there for her. I speak to her a lot," Paltrow said while attending the premiere of her film "Two Lovers" at the London Film Festival. (Oh yeah, that's where she was wearing this dress, so maybe she wasn't thinking too straight.)

But according to the National Enquirer, Madonna thinks friends should be seen and not heard, at least when it comes to talking about the Material Girl's split with Guy Ritchie. “If you want to help me and be supportive of me, then keep your mouth SHUT!” Madonna allegedly told Paltrow. “Say nothing about me or my divorce.”

Harsh. Guess I won't be calling to see how you're dong anytime soon, Madge. Your loss - I was going to bring over some brownies.

I Guess It's Over: Madonna Set to Bury Guy's Memory. Literally.

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 19:35:00 GMT

Anyone hoping that Madonna might possibly consider reconciling with Guy Ritchie might want to take note: The material girl has reportedly ordered her assistant to gather all photos, gifts and letters she received from Ritchie so that they can be buried. Now that's closure.

A source told London's Daily Express that Madonna is having all items "audited" and "digitally scanned" before they're entombed. "It will be a little bit like a funeral as she lays that part of her life to rest," the source told the paper.

Celebrities do crazy things! Why can't she just cut him out of all her pictures, put a voodoo curse on him and then set his car on fire like the rest of us do after a breakup?

Madonna Divorcing G-Ritch, Hooking Up With A-Rod

sweatpantsmom — Wed, 15 Oct 2008 21:25:00 GMT

Who knew that Madonna's recent hit 4 Minutes was referring to the time it would take her to be in a new relationship after her divorce? The singer just officially announced her split with husband Guy Ritchie yesterday, and it's being reported that she's already going public with her relationship with Yankee Alex Rodriguez. A source tells Usmagazine.com that the two "are definitely romantic."

Although Rodriguez and Madonna were linked as early as July when the singer was still very much married, the source says, "Guy is not involved in this equation. With or without A-Rod, Madonna and Guy haven't been 'together' for over a year - they have been privately separated. Madonna, however, wanted to finish her world tour before divorcing."

A source close to Rodriguez also confirmed the romance. "A-Rod and Madonna are more involved than ever. Alex has really missed spending time with Madonna. However, he understands the position Madonna's in."

What's next? Maybe the title of another recent Madonna single, Give It 2 Me says it all; it may be referring to the inevitable battle over custody of the couple's children.

(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!

Madonna's Son Is Boy Enough To Push A Pink Stroller

Sassy Smith — Wed, 13 Aug 2008 17:08:00 GMT

Little David Banda, Madonna's 2 1/2 year old son, is totally boy enough to walk through the park, pushing a hot pink stroller. How cute is he?!

Another photo after the jump!

David was joined by older siblings Rocco, 8, and Lourdes, 11 1/2, (not pictured) and a few nannies. They were enjoying some fresh air and sun in New York City's Central Park.

Madonna and Guy sure have great looking kids!

A-Rod Speaks Out-Finally

trix — Thu, 31 Jul 2008 20:37:00 GMT

We have been waiting for Yankee 3rd basemen Alex Rodriguez to say something about the Madonna, Cynthia Rodriguez, divorce, affair situation. He has finally said something addressing most of the questions thrown his way but definitely not all of them.

Here's what he had to say, the marriage is "irretrievably broken" and that Florida is a no fault state and that she is asking to keep the$12 million dollar home along with a cut of the earnings from his career while they were together.

Good thing he had her sign a pre-nup before they got married. He also said that the divorce settlement should be settled by the prenup that Cynthia signed before their wedding. According to the actual document, she signed the prenup “with the assistance of counsel of her own choosing, freely and voluntarily ... and with full and complete financial disclosure of husband’s income, assets and liabilities.”

It's always the children who suffer and Alex wants to pay child support and "share parental responsibility for their daughter’s “wealth, health, education and religious upbringing.” He also want to get together with Cynthia to work out a custody plan so she will be able to take care of them while he is on the road so much during baseball season but also so he can have full access to them as well.

They have two children together, Natasha 3 and Elle 3 months.

I think that their marriage was broken long ago and she took advantage of the press obsession of the whole A-Rod, Madonna situation to make the split official and get as much as she could. JMO

Maybe We Should All Leave Madonna Alone

trix — Sun, 27 Jul 2008 15:14:00 GMT

Madonna and Lourdes were out together, I think they have been heading to a dark alley to go rough someone up. Look at Madonna's arms they are super scary and I think Lourdes could kick some major tush with her Wonder Woman headband.

Do you think that the stress of the media coverage is making her look so worn out or did she have some sort of procedure that left her looking like this? Or is this her new look? If it is I prefer the old Madonna, there is nothing left of her.

It's All A Big Lie

trix — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 18:11:00 GMT

Madonna's ex, Carlos Leon, says it's all a lie. He's finally speaking out about the whole situation between Madonna and A-Rod. Both parties have repeatedly denied reports that they are hooking up and Carlos Leon told People Magazine that he knows for a fact that it's "a lie" and that "I know for a fact, she wouldn't do that."

I know they don't have to explain themselves to us but, they need to make a statement about why she was at his place and what's going on if they don't want the rumors to spread. Doesn't A-Rod know that he shouldn't do that stuff during the season because it will distract the other players? Is it all a publicity stunt for her Hard Candy tour?

Carlos does say that Lourdes has remained grounded even though her mother has been drug through the headlines these past couple of weeks.

"Look at me and the way I live: I ride my bicycle, I walk, I don't have a driver," Leon explains. "That's how I keep her grounded. Her mom does a good job too -- she's not that person that everyone thinks. She's very laid back and cool."

Well good for Lourdes, I hope that he is able to keep her grounded as she heads into her teen years.

How Are Madonna's Kids Holding Up?

Sassy Smith — Sun, 06 Jul 2008 15:08:00 GMT

With all of the rumors about Madonna and husband Guy Ritchie, how are their kids holding up? It would be hard enough being a celebrity kid, not to mention when there are stories about your parents floating around. Perhaps the boys don't hear much as they're still quite young, but Lordes is 11 and I'm sure she reads it or sees it on the internet. So how do they cope?

More pics after the jump!

Luckily Lourdes has daddy Carlos Leon to take her and spend time with her. The man is not only hot, he seems like a very involved parent without sticking himself unnecessarily into the limelight. I suppose has to put up with some hassle since he's Madonna's ex and they share a daughter. Rocco was spotted heading to a ballgame and no sign of little David - hopefully his parents are remembering that they have a toddler who needs security and routine in his life!

Look at the fierceness of Carlos Leon's face. Look at his clenched fist. Look at the way he holds her hand. Madonna needn't worry about her daughter Lourdes when she's with her daddy, because he obviously isn't going to let anyone mess with his baby girl - paparazzi included!

I wonder how Lourdes is handling the possible divorce of her mom and step dad, Guy Ritchie? I'm sure it'll be hard on her and her little brothers, Rocco and David. Hopefully the kids come away knowing that they're loved and hopefully Madonna and Guy keep it civil.

Madonna Wanted To Adopt 10 Children

Karen — Fri, 27 Jun 2008 13:34:00 GMT

Madonna's documentary, "I Am Because We Are" is well underway and the film has changed her life.

“I was approached by a woman who lived (in Malawi) who said, ‘Look, you have children; you’re a mother; you write children’s books; you donate money to children’s charities, so we know that you care. There’s a state of emergency going on here, over a million children orphaned by AIDS. People pay attention to what you do and what you say, so could you please help?’” Madonna explained to Parade magazine. “I just thought, ‘How can I say no?’”

“When I experienced what was going on firsthand, I just got sucked into the whole thing,” the queen of pop said. “Thank God I did. I met some amazing people and, hopefully, I’ve changed the lives of a lot of children.”

Well she certainly changed the life of her adopted son, David.

“I’ll never forget meeting my son, David,” she told Parade. “If I could, I would have adopted 10 more children. There’s just so many that need parents and one’s more beautiful and lovely than the next.”

Meh. Leave it to Angelina and Brad, honey. They've got the years left on them.

Madonna's Kids Think She is Irritating

Karen — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 18:24:00 GMT

Welcome to the club, kids! Okay they didn't say she was irritating, just her fame.

"They are aware that I'm famous and irritated by it, like most children would be," she said. Really? Because you would think Lourdes wouldn't want to perform.

"But we have had lots of discussions of what it means and why people are obsessed with famous people. They are fairly tolerant."

Madonna's kids have a solid understanding of how lucky they are though. They traveled with their mother to Malawi when she went to work on her latest project, a documentary titled I Am Because We Are.

"More than anything, two things I understood in the process of making this film," she says. "One was that I went to Malawi thinking I would save children's lives and make a big difference in their lives and hopefully I have, but the surprise to me was how much they changed me, how much evolution and growth occurred inside me."

Lourdes Wants To Booty Shake - Madonna Says Yes,Guy Says No

Sassy Smith — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 19:07:00 GMT

What does a does a step-daddy do when his 11-year-old child wants to "shake her booty" with her pop singer, crotch thrusting, hip grinding mother? Lourdes, daughter of Madonna and Carlos Leon, step-daughter to Madonna's husband Guy Rithie, has dreams of touring with her mega-famous mom. She's been perfecting her moves at Pineapple, a dance studio in London and so wants to team up with Madonna. However, daddy Guy is not keen on the idea!

An insider told The Mirror, "Lola [Lourdes' nickname] is the best in her dance classes and wants to perform a special dance sequence alongside Madonna at the 02 arena.

"Madonna thinks Lola is a brilliant dancer and loves the idea, but hubby Guy is less keen."

The source adds, "He doesn't want her to become a bratty stage school child."

Looks like Lourdes' father Carlos may have to be the tie breaker! And if it's a go, Madonna might have to tame down her show just a bit.

Lourdes Looks Like A Young Angelina Jolie?

Sassy Smith — Wed, 30 Apr 2008 17:07:00 GMT

People are divided on who, exactly, 11-year-old Lourdes Ciccone looks like - her mother Madonna or her father Carlos Leon? Now, according to some, there seems to be a noticable resemblance between Lourdes and a young, 16-year-old Angelina Jolie. What do you think?

Pic after the jump

Piercing eyes and pouting lips - I see a slight glimmer of "alikeness" in Lourdes and the teenage version of Jolie, but personally I see a lot of Madonna in her daughter, however I think the celebrity pre-teen looks the most like her handsome daddy.
