American singer Madonna has revealed she feels attracted to creative people, and this is the reason she was married to two men who fall into this pattern, Sean Penn and Guy Ritchie.
Madonna likes ‘creative’ men. The 53 years old artist revealed that she felt attracted to her former spouses, Sean Penn and Guy Ritchie, because both were interesting and talented and encouraged her to follow her dreams in the film industry, informs contactmusic.com.
At a press conference that followed the premiere of Madonna’s latest film, ‘W.E’, which was directed by the artist, at the Venice Film Festival, Madonna said: “I am and I was attracted to very creative people, which led me to marry Sean Penn and Guy Ritchie, very talented directors. Both encouraged me. ”
The film ‘WE’ tells the story of the relationship between King Edward VIII of Great Britain and Wallis Simpson, an American divorcee, highlighting his decision to abdicate the throne to marry the chosen one of his heart.

Madonna is madly in love with her new lover, Brahim Zaibat, said the relatives of the famous artists.
The 53 years old American singer has told friends she is very in love with her ​​boyfriend and wants the world to know this, music-news.com informs.
Madonna and Brahim Zaibat form a couple since less than a year, but the famous artist feels ready to make their relationship known to the world.
“She is proud of Brahim and sees no reason to keep the relationship hidden,” revealed a close friend of the artist.
Brahim Zaibat is only 24 years old, but even if Madonna has experienced relationships with men younger than her before, this time she says that things are different.
The French dancer seems to get along well with Madonna’s children, especially David (5 years old) and Mercy (5 years old).

Antonio Banderas recently admitted that in his youth had the opportunity to hook up with Madonna, but was afraid of her ‘power’.
The actor found out from some friends that Madonna liked him. He would have not said no, only that at that time he was married and Madonna was the hottest artist of the moment. That’s what scared him the most, said Banderas.
‘I felt flattered to know that Madonna likes me. I did not know what to do in that case. I was married. So nothing happened. Back then I was very afraid, because Madonna is a very influential woman. I did not want to be her little boy. With the good and the bad, I wanted to have my own career, ’said the actor.
Antonio and Madonna met with the help of the director Pedro Almodovar. On the evening they met, Antonio almost fainted when he saw himself face to face with the Queen of Pop.
‘She talked a lot, but I didn’t understand any of it. I felt like fainting when I saw myself sitting next to Madonna. She was already very famous, while I was a noone back then, concluded Banderas.

It looks like Jesus Luz, Madonna’s long-time boyfriend, is already too old for the singer who is cruising for fresh meat. And where better to find such game than in the ranks of the backing dancers where she found a guy twenty years her junior. This is what a source related about Madonna’s interactions with her latest victim: “They came in together and were holding hands in a private area. Madonna got up and was dancing for an hour straight before going back to her man. They immediately started making out in front of other guests.” Well she’s certainly not being subtle about it all. Weren’t she and Jesus Luz supposed to get married at some point? It seems that Madonna has other plans.

Even though some may still look upon the Brazilian model’s relationship with Madonna with skeptic eyes, it looks like this type of relationship is not unusual for Jesus Luz as he has always went after the older ladies. This is what Jesus Luz said on the matter: “When I was younger, I liked to go out with one after the other, but when I got older I needed just one cool girl. I always liked being in a relationship. It’s difficult to meet a young girl who has a mature head. So I dated mature, older women.” Well, he sure does know how to pick them. Look how good Madonna has been for him so far… his own music career and whatnot. And she’s probably the perfect older woman for him… she doesn’t look her age, but most certainly acts it.

And it looks like she isn’t too happy about that. Madonna was recently a guest on a show called “The Marriage Ref” where she had to give relationship advice, but the show’s “ref” didn’t chose her advice at the end, but the advice of Larry David who was also a guest at the show. After the latter declared the show to have been very uncomfortable, Madonna really snapped back at him: “Why? Because you’re sitting next to a woman who is standing up to you?” Temper, temper… is Jesus Luz touring nowadays? Is that why Madonna is so upset? It looks like she could really do with a bit of relaxing and hopefully soon.

Is apparently failing miserably, or so a source relates about Madonna’s boyfriend. It seems that when he’s not looking stunning for a camera, Jesus Luz likes to give his best shot at being a DJ but a source says he really isn’t any good at it: “Jesus can’t DJ. He has absolutely no idea how to mix music and has absolutely no DJ skills at all. He totally fakes it. A lot of people know he can’t really DJ, so his fee is then significantly reduced, to, like, $1000. Not everyone knows though, so the people who don’t know will pay him crazy amounts, like up to $10,000!” Well, well, it would look that all of this A-Rod business has caused Madonna’s little boyfriend to try and find some alternate work… after all, it’s not like she’s going to leave him allowance after they part ways.

It seems that this classic little mishap of theirs will forever remain in history as it was voted on first place of a recent top of kisses from the last decade. This is what a source said about Madonna and Britney Spears’ unique moment together: “Madonna performing with both Britney and Christina was a big enough event in itself, but nobody – even the MTV people – expected what happened. It is one of the most memorable moments ever.” Well, probably the next, natural thing to happen would be for the three of them to get feisty with each other… but by that time, the MTV Video Music Awards would probably be an entirely different show… with an entirely different name.

Stella McCartney wants to convert Lindsay Lohan away from fur and leather attire.

McCartney has said she wants to persuade Lohan to say no to fur. Lohan is said to be a fan of McCartney’s clothing.

“Stella is concerned that Lindsay is going overboard with her use of leather. Lindsay wears a lot of Stella’s designs and she doesn’t want to be associated with such a high-profile star who insists on wearing animal products,” a source said.

The fashion designer daughter of Sir Paul McCartney did not succeed when she tried to talk Kate Moss and Madonna out of fur.

A spokesperson for Stella said: “She never uses fur and encourages everyone to opt for a vegetarian lifestyle.”

British songstress Leona Lewis has suffered a horse-riding incident when her own horse delivered a nasty headbutt. The horse, which was a birthday present from her friends, turned on Leona after an early morning ride and hit her in the face so hard that it split her lip open and knocked her to the floor. According to sources “Leona has been riding since she was a child and has never had a fear of horses. So she was really shaken up when the horse turned on her. Something startled the horse and it flicked its head back and smacked Leona full in the face. She was knocked flying by the force of it. Thankfully she didn’t need any surgery, but she was told to stay at home and rest just in case she passed out with concussion.” Unlike Madonna, Leona isn’t blaming anyone or anything for the incident.

The pop singer has reportedly admitted to being happy about getting divorced from Guy Ritchie… even though the statement was made in an unofficial setting. Apparently, Madonna gave the following reply on a friend’s Twitter page after a fan of her explained how glad he was that she was single again: “NOT AS GLAD AS I AM! M.” And of course we are all going to believe that that was really Madonna and those were really her deepest and utmost sincere feelings. Not just some reply aptly given in order to please the fan base… after all, it’s not like Madonna would ever do something like that.

The marriage days between the pop queen Madonna and her soon-to-be ex-husband will be over almost immediately.

It has been reliably learned that the couple has settled their divorce terms.

Madonna and director Guy Ritchie negotiated relatively painlessly. Guy Ritchie will get assets totaling around US$60 million including a London pub, a 1,200-acre country estate and a cash settlement.

A source close to the family quoted, “Guy knew what he wanted and Madonna knew what she was keen to keep. There was a spell when Guy was in a mood to dig his heels in, but he decided this arrangement seemed reasonable and a long battle over money would make life unbearable.”

May be they were planning the split up before hand.

Although many of the family members and friends attended Madonnas’s50th birthday but still she was ‘disappointed’ when many of her invited guests failed to turn up.

She exclaimed at her guests, “I am really disappointed”. She further added, “There are a lot of people who are not here, but thanks to everyone who did make it”.

Madonna hosted a sumptuous party at the elite Volstead nightclub in Mayfair.

In the end it was her husband Guy Ritchie who made her evening by presenting the birthday “girl” with Bulgari necklace and earrings worth $500,000. Madonna’s daughter, Lourdes, 11, also amused her guests by playing a sit musical Fame on a grand piano.

Madonna has asked Givenchy to design outfits for her upcoming world tour. The French fashion house has confirmed its head designer Ricardo Tisci will be creating Madonna’s wardrobe for her ‘Sticky and Sweet’ shows.

Givenchy spokeswoman Caroline Deroche-Pasquier revealed Givenchy Haute Couture has made the 49-year-old pop superstar two outfits.

It is believed Madonna will wear one of the Givenchy ensembles when she opens the show.

Tisci, who is renowned for his gothic influence and use of dark fabrics, is delighted to be working with Madonna.

He said: “I feel incredibly fortunate to have been given the opportunity to offer the world of Givenchy Haute Couture to Madonna the Icon, the Artist, the Woman for whom I have so much respect and admiration.”

The first outfit – said to have a ‘Gangster Pimp’ influence – features a black satin coat trimmed with jet beads and a black satin waistcoat with a corseted back.

Tisci’s second creation – which has a ‘Gypsy’ theme – consists of a long hooded taffeta cape with a fuchsia lining and a black dress with multi-coloured ribbons and pink metal chains.

Previous spoilers on Madonna’s ‘Sticky & Sweet’ tour set list have been pretty disappointing. However, the Queen of Pop continued to tweak her set list since then and the changes are fabulous! It’s completely packed with hits.

Lenny Kravitz was so pissed off that his long time manager Guy Oseary was getting his clients Madonna and New York Yankees player Alex Rodriguez so entangled in their current mess, that he fired him. According to the New York Post, that sudden decision that Lenny made to terminate Oseary was the reason the rocker got dragged into the fray. Lenny was rumored to have had an affair with A-Rod’s wife Cynthia. According to Cynthia’s pal Dodd Romero, they were all together on Lenny’s tour bus when the news about his and Cynthia broke. Dodd says “Lenny looked like he was going to throw up. Lenny said ‘I worked so hard to clean up my image and now… this.’”

Seems maybe the press jumped the gun on this one.  And you can be sure Madonna’s not going to back down calmly.

In response to stories that Madonna and hubby Guy Ritchie are calling it quits, Guy’s mummy (yes, his mom) said, “There’s no conversation about divorce because there is no divorce.  They are no different to most other couples and we all know that being together can be hard sometimes and marriages are not always a bed of roses.  I’ll say it one more time, they are not getting divorced; the speculation is TT – that’s total tosh.”

To back that up, Guy apparently headed out from London to meet Madonna in NYC.
