Material Mom

Besides the fact that we are both moms and were born on August 16th, there is very, very little I have in common with Madonna. At least that’s what I thought before I caught a snippet of an interview the “Material Girl” just did with NBC’s “Rock Center.” Unlike Madonna I am not an international entertainment superstar, I don’t have arms that look like Rambo’s and I wholeheartedly oppose yoga as a way to add balance to my life. However, I recently discovered that when it comes to parenting, we have this in common: We would rather be dead than … Continue reading

Guy Ritchie’s Mom Sounds Off on Son’s Alleged Split from Madonna

Maybe they’re not getting a divorce after all. Maybe, just maybe, the media is making a mountain out of a molehill and Madonna and her husband Guy Ritchie are simply going through a rough patch and plan to work things out. Naaah! Actually, if you believe Ritchie’s mom, the Madonna-Guy divorce rumors are just that—-“works of fiction” dreamed up by the media. Ritchie’s mom, Lady Amber Leighton, broke down and went public today claiming that talk of a divorce between the Material Girl and her filmmaker husband is “total tosh.” Speculation that the superstar couple is on the road to … Continue reading

Natalie Portman is Not a Cheater and Madonna is Not Marrying Jesus

Don’t believe the rumors: Natalie Portman is not the mystery woman behind Sean Penn’s divorce. At least that’s what the breathtakingly gorgeous actress maintains. In an effort to set the record straight, Portman recently broke her rule about speaking to the press about her personal life, so she could clear up reports that claim she broke up Penn’s marriage to actress Robin Wright-Penn. Portman told TV’s “Extra” that the romance story is “completely untrue” and she’s appalled that the media has linked her to Penn, who split from his wife for the second time a few weeks ago. In the … Continue reading

Madonna’s Web of Lies Exposed

Why is it that when some people experience a negative situation the first thing they do is to place blame on someone else for their pain and suffering? It’s never their fault, rather X, Y, or Z is to blame, and they are merely victims of unfortunate circumstances. The world should weep for them, embrace them, and enable their inability to take responsibility for their own actions. Oh, boo-hoo! Well, now the aforementioned parties have another guest to invite to their pity parties—-Madonna. If you haven’t already heard, the Material Mom fell off a horse last weekend. The singer was … Continue reading

Madonna Helps Quake Victims and Whitney Helps Drug Dealers

Within hours of surviving a devastating earthquake that struck his city, the mayor of Pacentro, Italy called someone he hoped would render aid… Madonna.

“You’re My What?”—Heartbreaking Parent/Child Reunion

While the media was busy covering Madonna’s latest unsuccessful attempt to adopt another child from Malawi, not much was made of another newsworthy (to me anyway) story that took place during the singer’s recent trip to the African nation. According to reports, the Material Mom made sure her three children–12-year-old Lourdes, 8-year-old Rocco, and 3-year-old David–accompanied her during her pilgrimage to Malawi last week. The entire family spent six days touring various poor African villages to promote Madonna’s Raising Malawi charity. (The charity helps feed, educate and provide medical care for some of Malawi’s more than 1 million orphans, half … Continue reading

Madonna’s Adoption DENIED!

I guess money and fame can’t get you everything in life. It’s a lesson that apparently came as a HUGE shock to Madonna today after a judge declined her adoption request. According to reports, a residency requirement in Malawi has prevented the Material Girl from flying back to New York with the 3-year-old girl, who she wanted to adopt as her own. Reports say the residency requirement for prospective parents is 18 to 24 months in Malawi. Madonna has homes in New York and London, but does not have a residence in Malawi despite the fact that she adopted her … Continue reading

Madonna Adopting Toddler Girl

It’s a girl for Madonna! According to reports, the Material Mom will add another daughter to her brood of kids, which already includes 12-year-old Lourdes, 8-year-old Rocco, and 3-year-old David Banda. All three children have different fathers, and the newest addition won’t be an exception. Reports say Madonna will return to Malawi next week to adopt a new daughter. The news comes just a year after the singer’s official adoption of David Banda, which took more than two year thanks to legal wrangling. Local officials in Malawi say the pop diva is scheduled to arrive in Lilongwe next Monday to … Continue reading

Celebrity Wrap: Madonna and Jennifer Aniston

I’m not sure I buy this whole Madonna loves her 22-year-old boyfriend Jesus Luz bit. If you haven’t already heard, the 50-year-old Material Girl is reportedly crazy in love (or lust… or just plain crazy) for her 22-year-old boy toy Jesus Luz. Never mind that the singer is older than Luz’s biological mother and Luz is less than a decade older than Madonna’s daughter Lourdes, the pop diva reportedly “deeply cares” for him and now she’s taking their relationship to a new level. According to reports, the songstress recently introduced Luz to her children during a family trip to a … Continue reading
