Here are some more photos of Madonna at the Venice Film Festival - look, she was brave enough to take off her sunglasses! Um? her face. Her face makes me sad. I?m not even gleeful, in a schadenfreude way, about Madonna?s face. Imagine how nice she would have looked if she had never messed with it? In the fantasy world, Madonna?s un-tweaked face would actually look younger than what we see before us. Poor Madonna.
I swear, Madonna?s lips are worse than Nicole Kidman?s.
*waits for a beat*
OMG, she looks like Hillary Clinton now! I just figured it out.
Anyway, In Touch Weekly has a funny/gross story about Madge?s ?crazy? habits. It starts out silly and just kind of ?Madge is hilariously OCD? and then in the last line, it turns really, really gross. The gist is: Madonna won?t let her children, or her baby-boyfriend Brahim use HER toilet. No peasants on Madge?s throne! Your move, Gwyneth!
Someone tell Madonna that boy toys come potty-trained! According to a friend, Madge won?t let her 29-years-younger lover Brahim Zaibat use her, ahem, throne.
?Madonna doesn?t even let her kids use her toilet,? a friend tells In Touch. ?It?s just her thing. She is very generous, but this is the one thing she doesn?t want to share,? adds the pal, who explains that 53-year-old Madonna is very cautious when it comes to anyone else tinkling in her territory.
Apparently, she?s got no such fears of bed-wetting - because she?s more than happy to share her boudoir with the fetching French dancer!

Did we need the ?bed-wetting? crack? No, no we did not. Because instead of thinking about ?haha, Madge is a cradle-robber? it made me think of the wet spot. *shiver*
Here?s the thing: I might be able to understand this toilet thing if it was just about (perceived) germs, or maybe Brahim messing up what I?m sure is an immaculate bathroom, or maybe he just always leaves the lid up. But I really think that in Madonna?s mind, it?s about not allowing her boyfriends to ?mark their territory? on her. Because she?s such a control freak and she will not allow a peasant to piss in HER territory.

Stepping out for a promotional appearance, Madonna was spotted at a photo call for her new flick ?W.E.? at the Venice Film Festival today (September 1).
The ?Material Girl? songstress, who co-wrote and directed the film, was joined by Abbie Cornish at the Palazzo Del Cinema as she posed for the paparazzi.
?W.E.? is a two-tiered romantic drama focusing on the affair between King Edward VIII and American divorce Wallis Simpson and a contemporary romance between a married woman and a Russian security guard.
Also starring James D?Arcy and Natalie Dormer, ?W.E.? is scheduled to hit theaters in the States on December 9th.

Ooh, I love when all of the new photos from a film festival start rolling in. Here are some pics from today?s Venice Film Festival photo call for W.E. That?s the Madonna-directed film about Wallis Simpson and Edward (the Prince of Wales, King Edward VIII and then the Duke of Windsor). I wish there were better photos of my crush James D?Arcy, but maybe some will come in later. For now, I guess the photographers are just enchanted with Madonna?s appearance at the film festival. You can see Abbie Cornish there - she?s the one hugging Madge. Abbie plays the ?modern? character, obsessed with the Duke and Duchess of Windsor.
She?s not going to take off those sunglasses, is she? Shall we talk about how she looks? Considering all of you are yelling at me about Kate Winslet, maybe we should skip the ongoing discussion about whether or not Madonna?s chicken-cutlet cheek implants are working out, or whether Madge is trying out some new lip injections. Cough.
I can?t wait to see what the reception for this film will be - from critics and from audiences. I?ve seen some stuff about how Madonna didn?t take out Wallis and Edward?s Nazi sympathies, but I still fear some major historical revisionism. But! I?d be willing to bet that the acting is probably pretty good. Speaking of, I?ve been waiting for an excuse to post some of the Vanity Fair photos from the Madonna-styled, W.E.-themed photo shoot. Andrea Riseborough stars as Wallis, and she looks gorgeous - the real Wallis wasn?t this attractive, but she was this stylish. As for James D?Arcy? I love him so much. Such an unusual face, so tall, so sexy. For more photos, go to Vanity Fair?s slideshow here.

Last November, we first heard about Madonna’s latest incredibly young boyfriend, 24-year-old Brahim Zaibat, whose last name hilariously reminded CB of “jailbait”. To add to the already absurd situation, Brahim’s mommy made it known that she’s not at all thrilled about her son banging someone who is 28 years older than he is. Other than that, we don’t know much about Brahim because Madonna tends to keep him slightly underwraps, often taking great care to leave restaurants and clubs several steps away from him or through an altogether different exit. Also, Brahim is supposedly a French break dancer. WTF? Most people haven’t legitimately engaged in break dancing since the 1980s, which might actually be one reason (besides his youth) why Madge likes this guy. He takes her back three decades in more ways than one!
Anyway, Fame Pictures alleges that Madonna and Brahim had a brief break-up in May, but they are obviously quite together at this point. Madonna’s even allowing him to intentionally appear in the same photo frame as herself. It must be love, right? Well, the happy couple recently celebrated Madge’s 53rd birthday in the Hamptons with Madonna’s four kids and entourage in tow. There’s even a really gross picture of of Brahim grabbing Madonna’s butt right in front of Mercy and David; and just below, here’s the whole group returning home from that trip:
Poor Brahim looks like Madonna’s latest adopted child, doesn’t he? Really, I should be nicer than that because, according to The Enquirer, Madge is completely smitten with this guy and is thinking of marrying him. Here we go again:
At just 24, Madonna’s boyfriend, Brahim Zaibat, is closer in age to her children than to the Material Girl herself. But that hasn’t stopped the 53-year-old from telling friends that she’s head over heels in love and wants the world to know.
“She’s proud of Brahim and sees no reason to keep their relationship on the down-low,” an insider reveals. “After nearly a year together, she wants to acknowledge him as her boyfriend.”
For someone Brahim’s age, that might bean merely updating his Facebook relationship status. But Madonna chose to pack on the PDA. “They celebrated her [Aug. 16] birthday in the Hamptons and they acted like giddy teenagers,” says the pal.
While Brahim isn’t her first fling with a boy toy, Madonna is gushing that no one else has made her feels so complete. “She never acted this way before,” the friend says. “She is genuinely smitten. She says she hasn’t felt this kind of passion since she was in her twenties!”
The French dancer has even become part of Madonna’s family, winning over her youngest children, David, 5, and Mercy, 5. “Madonna is amazed by how quickly the kids have bonded with Brahim. They adore him!”
Another key ingredient in their romance is Brahim’s own strong will. “He isn’t deferential toward her and could care less about their fame,” says the friend. “He treats her like a woman, not a celebrity.”
Despite a 29-year age difference, Madonna believes her boyfriend is an old soul. “She says Brahim is like someone she met in another lifetime,” explains the firend. “Everything between them just clicks.”
“The way things are going, no one would be surprised if she announced an engagement,” revealed a pal. “Brahim wants to make an honest woman of her.”
[From Enquirer, print edition, September 5, 2011]
Uh, I honestly think that, at this point, it’s a little bit late “to make an honest woman” out of Madonna. If Brahim really said that, then he must not know her nearly as well as he thinks that he does. Still, who knows? Maybe this guy will be Lucky Husband #3, but probably not. As soon as he turns 25-years-old, Madge will probably toss him over in favor of an eager replacement. And I wonder what Lourdes thinks of her mother dating guys that are barely older than she is? Eh, she’s probably used to all the weird.

Making her way back to the UK, Madonna was spotted landing at Heathrow International Airport on a flight from New York City today (August 16).
Celebrating her 53rd birthday, the ?Material Girl? songstress was joined by her family and looked snazzy in a grey jacket, dark trousers and silver shoes.
And it seems Madge and her 24-year-old dancer boyfriend Brahim Zaibat have been spotted out in public quite frequently as of late.
Madonna and Brahim caught the paparazzi?s eye early this morning at JFK Airport in New York City, and were seen looking loved up in The Hamptons just a few days ago.
An eyewitness shared, "They looked like any young couple in love... except Madonna's old enough to be his mum.Yet she didn't let that get in the way of their love-in. They were so tactile and stealing kisses whenever they felt the urge.?

What does Madonna love more than anything else? She loves herself, for sure, but I think ?money? and ?gristly-body obsession-fanaticism? is right up there with self-love. So it was love at first sight when Madge met Tracy Anderson, the fraud ?trainer? who made Madonna into the piece of gristle she is today. A few years ago, Madonna and Tracy split up, and I always assumed the whole thing was over money. Tracy wanted to open gyms and trade on her association with Madonna, and Madge balked. Now Tracy is in business with Gwyneth Paltrow, who coincidentally is no longer BFFs with Madge. Anyway, this Star Mag story is kind of a blast from the past, but I want to buy it just because this completely comports with the image I have of Madonna: a 50-something woman terrified of aging, who will pay any amount of money to look younger, who will fly into a rage at the mere mention of cellulite.
Madonna is turning 53 in August, and she?s so obsessed with maintaining a youthful appearance, she?s purchased a Cellupulse anti-cellulite acoustic wave therapy machine for $75,000, according to a member of the superstar?s inner circle. Madge uses the machine twice a week and faithfully record her thigh measurements to make sure she?s on target and ?flips out if it increases by as little as one quarter of an inch.?
Madge is so fixated on her cellulite that it has destroyed her relationship with her longtime exercise guru, Tracy Anderson.
?Tracy grew to dread the early-morning phone calls from Madonna ranting about what a useless trainer she was,? according to one of Tracy?s pals. ?Madonna would threaten to fire her, and Tracy had to talk her down each time.?
Tracy?s not the only casualty of Madonna?s body image obsession. ?The measuring and ranting used to drive her ex-husband crazy,? reports the insider. ?Guy Ritchie would mock her and joke that he noticed a few new dimples, which he thought was tremendously funny, but she obviously didn?t.?
The insider continues: ?Madonna wants the body of an 18-year-old dancer and believes she can maintain her youth if she works hard enough in her gym, which is covered from floor to ceiling with mirrors. She scrutinizes her body in every position, looking for fat like an FBI detective.?
Madonna has also vowed to eliminate anyone who doesn?t respect her exercise regimen from her home and her life.
?Those wishing to stay in her good graces have learned to stay mum on the subject, especially her young male companions.?
[From Star Magazine, print edition]
Don?t you want to think of Madonna like this? Obsessively measuring her cellulite in her completely mirrored room, agonizing over the measurements for hours and then finally rage-calling Tracy to vent? That is totally how I picture her.
Re: the ?young male companions? - does anyone else get the feeling that Madge isn?t even having sex with these young guys? I got that feeling when she was with Jesus Luz, and now that she?s doing the on-again-whatever with Brahim, I just think Madge is like Hugh Hefner at this point. She keeps all of the young, fresh meat around her to make herself feel better, like she?s young again, and so she can have something pretty to look at.

Yesterday, when I was covering the fashion for the Met Gala, I noted that both Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow were wearing Stella McCartney dresses. I actually like Madge?s dress more - I thought it suited her, it softened her, it was flattering and a lovely color for her. I disliked Gwyneth?s dress because it looked like dated, budget Michael Kors. I also noted that considering Gwyneth and Madonna are no longer BFFs, the fact that they both showed up in Stella gowns probably caused some controversy. Lainey noted it too - and she thought that Gwyneth and Stella (and Kate Hudson, Rashida Jones and others) were hanging out at the gala and mean-girling Madge. All of it sounds like a potential powder-keg of Bitches Being Bitches. So? how did Madge retaliate? She told reporters that she felt fat! GASP.
Even the Material Girl feels less than perfect sometimes.
At the Met Gala in New York on Monday night, Madonna confessed to reporters that she wasn’t thrilled with the way she looked.
“I feel fat in my dress,” she said.
The 52-year-old mother of four looked extremely fit in her blue Stella McCartney dress. She paired the gown with Sergio Rossi heels and Cartier jewelry.
The chiseled star, famous for her macrobiotic diet and intense workout regime, even opened a Hard Candy gym in Mexico City and has plans to expand the franchise to more than ten locations worldwide.
[From Us Weekly]
Do you think Madge honestly felt fat, or do you think this was a cut at Stella McCartney? That?s how I read it, honestly. This is Madge NOT defending the woman who designed her dress. This is Madge telling the world, ?Stella McCartney does not make me feel beautiful.? Which, in another leap says ?Stella isn?t as good a designer as she thinks.? Or, “Stella makes women look fat = Gwyneth looks fat.” DOUBLE GASP!!!
Or it could totally be that Madge just has extreme body image issues. Thus, The Gristle. Thus, whenever she?s not dressed up in Lola?s clothes, she feels ?fat.?
Oh, and I still want to know exactly what happened between Madge and Goop. I think it started because of Tracy Anderson, but I don?t think it?s about Tracy anymore.
By the way, Stella McCartney really isn?t all that. Look at what she made for herself.

OH SNAP. You know how Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow are no longer BFFS, after an alleged falling-out over? God knows. Something to do with fraud trainer Tracy Anderson, and maybe Kabbalah. Maybe Goop, maybe it?s just that too snotty bitch divas can?t get along forever. Anyway, THE SCANDAL: Madonna wore Stella McCartney, JUST LIKE GWYNETH. And guess what? I think Madonna got the prettier Stella dress. Right?
So? yeah, I think Madonna looks kind of great here. Her face work (twerk) is under control and she doesn?t look like someone just jammed a pair of two-big chicken cutlets into her cheeks. The hair is decent. And the dress is rather beautiful and (GASP) age-appropriate. Madge never wears anything age-appropriate, so seeing her all covered up and feminine, with her gristle and her thighs of doom under wraps is all rather? lovely.
I LOVE THE TRAIN. So pretty. I love the glittery stars. I love that Madonna surprised me by looking put together and pretty. Oh, Madge?s date was her manager - Guy Oseary. He?s cute. I think he?s dating Bridget Moynahan.
So? do you think Gwyneth was pissed that Madge showed up in Stella too? And that Madge got the prettier dress while Gwyneth was stuck with some circa 1999 Michael Kors reject? I wonder if they even spoke to each other at the event.

She?s always managed to keep it cool, and Madonna was spotted taking a bike ride in Central London on Friday (April 8).
The ?Hung Up? singer looked stylish in workout pants paired with a trendy leather jacket and hat as she and a group of friends plus bodyguards peddled from her Mayfair home to Abbey Road Studios.
In recent news, it was being reported that the iconic songstress and her charity were being investigated by the FBI, but turns out those rumors are completely false.
"Neither Madonna nor Raising Malawi is being investigated by the FBI or the IRS. It is unfortunate that people have chosen to say things about Raising Malawi and Madonna that are not true," Madonna's representative Liz Rosenberg said in a statement.
