I doubt this is true. I read something in the media and both say they are happy in their marriage.

Madonna just got her adoption of the little boy approved.

i was looking...other than the typical lift, what looks different about her? same facial contours and all. i mean, aside from a few pics with bad/harsh lighting and/or makeup, i don't see much different (aside from the tightness of a lift).

really? way way way too much botox...she looks bad...its joan rivers bad imho...heck, if other celebrities felt comfortable enough to clock her (see rosanne barr) then she went too far...imho.

Her brother Christopher (the one who danced with her during the early promo gigs and was stage designer and choreographer for BAT) wrote a book about his sister.
They're relationship seems to be bad now, I guess?

I just read that this morning, but the book has yet to be written. I tend not to keep up with the personal lives of performers I like, so it was news to me that they're not close anymore. Nonetheless,, the AP report on the book says just that:

NEW YORK - The mystery is solved: Madonna's brother, Christopher Ciccone, is writing a memoir about his sister, to be released in mid-July by an imprint of Simon & Schuster, the publisher told The Associated Press on Wednesday.

The imprint, Simon Spotlight Entertainment, had been promoting a celebrity memoir for July, without identifying the author or contents. "Life With My Sister Madonna" will have a first printing of 350,000. Financial details were not disclosed.

"Ciccone's extraordinary memoir is based on his life and 47 years of growing up with and working with his sister — the most famous woman in the world," the publisher said Wednesday in a statement.

Persuading stores to make "blind" orders has been tried before. In 2006, William Morrow offered a mysterious tell-all that turned out to be by Princess Diana's former butler, Paul Burrell, who had already written about her. Retailers were angered and the book sold poorly.

Ciccone will work with Wendy Leigh, who has written biographies of Liza Minnelli and Grace Kelly and a highly critical book about Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Ciccone, 47, has worked often with his older sister, designing and directing her "Girlie Show" tour in 1993 and serving as artistic director of her 1991 documentary, "Madonna: Truth or Dare." But according to Madonna's spokeswoman, Liz Rosenberg, they are no longer close.

Madonna, who turns 50 this summer, is among the most popular recording artists in history, with such hits as "Like a Virgin," "Material Girl" and "Vogue."

Rosenberg had no initial comment on the book, but told the AP that "Madonna has not cooperated with any biography about herself."

is her brother the fag in that holiday top of the pops video with the gray t shirt?

and yeah she looks like a scary, swollen bunny in some of the hard candy promo pics, but hey it's Madonna and I'm excited about her tour

Report: Madonna obtains divorce lawyer

Madonna has hired the no-nonsense British divorce lawyer who repped Prince Charles and ex-Beatle Paul McCartney in their high-profile splits, it was claimed Thursday night.

The Material Girl retained Fiona Shackleton, known as the Steel Magnolia, in rumored divorce proceedings against her husband of seven years, filmmaker Guy Ritchie, The Times of London said.

Shackleton pulled off a major coup in McCartney's divorce, protecting all but $48 million of his $1.6 billion fortune.

"Madonna always seeks out the best in whatever field she is interested in at any given time," a friend of the singer told London's Mirror. "Fiona Shackleton is the best."

McCartney's ex, Heather Mills, was so upset after the judge's ruling that she dumped a pitcher of water on Shackleton's head.

Shackleton, 52, declined to comment on the report.

"The firm and Mrs. Shackleton have a policy of not speaking with the press," a spokeswoman told the Daily News.

Madonna, 49, did not appear to be wearing her wedding ring Thursday when she was spotted getting into an SUV in Manhattan.

Her publicist, Liz Rosenberg, didn't offer her usual denials, though, saying only, "My comment is I have no comment."

Madonna met Ritchie, 39, in 1999 after moving to London. They were introduced by Sting and his wife, Trudie Styler and got hitched in Scotland a year later.

The couple has two children Rocco, 7, and David Banda, 21 months, whom they adopted from Malawi in 2006. Madonna has a daughter, Lourdes, 11, from a prior relationship with Carlos Leon.

The British tabloids have reported for weeks that Madonna - reportedly worth some $600 million - has stopped sleeping in the same bed as Ritchie and hasn't been wearing her wedding ring.

They just returned from a three-day trip to Milan, but a source close to the couple told Britain's Sun newspaper, "They had completely separate rooms, schedules, everything. It was all very well organized, but it's not a marriage the way most people understand it.

"They have this attitude like, 'We're not really a couple, but we're friends and we love each other and raise our kids.' But the truth is they annoy each other, don't agree on anything, don't see each other or live 'together' as they did."

Madonna used the Milan trip to visit fashion designers to source costumes for her scheduled world tour. Ritchie worked on a new commercial with actor George Clooney.

The couple reportedly did not have a prenup agreement, so Ritchie can seek up to half of her fortune.

"Apparently, Madonna was impressed by Fiona's work for Sir Paul and the way she handles herself in the public eye," a friend told the Mirror.

"She is a consummate professional."

divorce rumors pop up every few weeks,lol.Not sure I believe this article but you never know.Guy's mother recently said that these rumors are "rubbish" and he's back in New York with her and the kids right now.

Unlike earlier reports, though, there seem to be more details now and it's being reported by various newspapers and news outlets. Doesn't prove anything I'm just saying it's much more plausible now IMO.
