  • Rocco Ritchie–Did Dad Guy Ritchie Drive Wedge Between Son and Mom Madonna?

    Rocco Ritchie is at the center of a heated custody dispute that may, in fact, be the result of a long-term feud between parents Guy Ritchie and Madonna.

    TMZ reports things have been volatile between Madonna and Guy for years, and when Rocco Ritchie went to visit his dad in London this last time, Guy used it as an opportunity to drive a wedge between mother and son.

    A judge ordered Rocco to return to New York before school begins again following Christmas break. He will then deal with legal proceedings in the U.S.

    Eric Buckley serves Rocco Ritchie’s counsel in London.

    “He has expressed very clearly that he does not want to return to New York,” he said last week.

    Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Deborah Kaplan said if Rocco Ritchie wants to live in London with his dad, he first needs to return to New York first to make it official.

    “I’m directing the child to be returned to New York. If he wants to stay with his father, he must return to his mother,” Kaplan told Madonna during a court hearing earlier this week.

    A hearing took place on December 23, after Rocco Ritchie retained his own legal counsel in London. The lawyer was–at that time–holding Rocco’s passport for safe keeping. The London court, however, sided with the New York court, deeming Rocco must return to New York, where he’ll get his own court-appointed attorney.

    “The parties should be doing this in New York instead of initiating it in England,” Kaplan added.

    Hello! reports that as of Christmas Day, Rocco Ritchie hadn’t returned to the U.S. He spent Christmas with his dad in London.

    Do you think there is really a problem between Rocco Ritchie and the Material Girl? Or has Guy Ritchie used typical 15-year-old discontent to his advantage, and fueled it into a more serious issue?

    Will Rocco Ritchie return to the U.S. or will Madonna wind up going to London to retrieve him?

  • Jessica Chastain Spanks the Material Girl

    Jessica Chastain Spanks the Material Girl

    Jessica Chastain was invited up on stage to dance with Madonna during her concert in Prague on Saturday. The Material Girl’s Rebel Heart Tour has thus far grossed approximately $50 million.

    Shortly after she was pulled from the audience, Jessica Chastain danced to the reggae-flavored song “Unapologetic Bitch” from Madonna’s “Rebel Heart” album. After getting down to the music for a minute or so, Chastain impulsively spanked Madonna, who was crawling on her hands and knees in front of her.

    Just like Taylor Swift, Madonna has been known lately for inviting A-listers up on to the stage during her concerts for an impromptu dance party. It’s likely this is planned well ahead of time.

    Jessica Chastain was in Prague, where she’s filming The Zookeeper’s Wife. The film is based on the diaries of Antonina Zabinksi, in the book by Diane Ackerman.

    This wasn’t Jessica Chastain’s first time meeting Madonna. Back in 2011, Madonna presented her with the Gucci Award for Women in Cinema in Venice at the Venice Film Festival.

    Jessica Chastain isn’t the first A-lister Madonna has brought up on stage recently either. Katy Perry, Anderson Cooper, and Amy Schumer have all graced her stage of late.

    None other than Jessica Chastain, however, can lay claim to having spanked the Material Girl.

  • Ariana Grande: Should Fans Be Afraid?

    Ariana Grande apparently isn’t the innocent young girl many people believe her to be. In fact, the ‘Problem’ singer has a bit of a dark past–at least with regard to whom she idolized when she was younger.

    Ariana is featured in the latest issue of Billboard magazine, and within its pages she reveals a few things most people didn’t know about the former–and seemingly very sweet–Sam & Cat sweetheart.

    Before examining those she idolized–hopefully past-tense–first take a look at whom she idolizes now. Ariana Grande absolutely adores Madonna. Hopefully that doesn’t mean the cone bra will soon be making a comeback. You have to admit you can see traces of Madge in the outfit Ariana chose to promote her soon-to-be-released album ‘My Everything.’

    “She is strength, she is freedom, she is wisdom beyond anybody’s comprehension,” Grande says of the ‘Material Girl.’

    Dubbed ‘a very weird little girl’ during her childhood, fans will no doubt be shocked to learn that Ariana Grande considers herself to be a ‘mini version’ of actress Helena Bonham Carter. The biggest surprise will likely come when they hear how she idolized Freddy Krueger. Maybe she still does?

    “I always wanted to have face paint on or be wearing a Freddy Krueger mask, and I would carry a hockey stick around,” she admits.

    The singer is already talking Halloween, and it’s only August. At least her idea for this year’s costume doesn’t look too frightening–at least not yet.

    Ariana’s fifth birthday party should have been a clear sign to her parents, neighbors, family members, and friends that something was just a little bit amiss.

    “For my fifth birthday party we had a Jaws theme and all my friends left crying. I mean, I still am that way. But when I was little it was more concerning,” Grande said. “There was a stage, when I was 3 or 4, where my mom thought I might grow up to be a serial killer.”

    The moral of this story is to never judge a book by its cover. That said, don’t go into a dark, deserted alley with Ariana Grande. Who knows what she might do or whom she might conjure up to accompany you during your time there.

    Fans, it’s probably best to love Ariana Grande from afar–listening to her tunes in safe locations–and attending her concerts only while accompanied by bodyguards.

    It might be wise to skip any and all meet-and-greets.

  • Madonna, Grammy Awards: Grills Piss People Off

    Madonna told Ryan Seacrest during a red carpet interview at the Grammy Awards Sunday that she wears grills on her teeth because she likes to piss people off. The 55-year-old also claims her 8-year-old son David designed her attire for the evening–which matched his–a Ralph Lauren ensemble– a black suit/tuxedo, replete with an oversized black fedora. On little David the outfit was adorable. Madonna looked like–well, it was different, to say the least. At least she was covered up more than usual, as any 55-year-old woman should be–but not always the singer’s standard. Thankfully while in the company of little David, she kept her Twitter hashtags to a far less racist level.

    “We’re both working the Ralph Lauren angle,” Madonna told Seacrest. “For this look, I followed his lead. He dressed me tonight. He wanted me to dress like him, so I obeyed him.”

    The Material Girl accessorized her Ralph Lauren ensemble with a cane, too–purportedly a result of a dance injury.

    “Yeah, I’m grillin’,” Madonna said of her ridiculous mouthful of glittering mess. “It pisses everybody off when I wear my grill, so that’s why I wear it.”

    She also added that she wears the mouth piece “when it matches my outfit. When I don’t have to eat. Actually, I’ve learned to eat with my grill in.”

    Wouldn’t everyone be honored to watch that?

    Little David complained while on the red carpet that his mother promised she’d get him grills, but so far hadn’t come through on her promise.

    “She said she’d get me grills for this birthday,” he protested, to which Madonna quickly put on as much of a “Mom” demeanor as she could manage, adding, “I know, but we haven’t had time. We have to go to the dentist to get a mold!”

    When asked what she was singing or with whom she was performing at the 2014 Grammy Awards, she replied with her usual holier than thou demeanor–the “Mom” act long gone.

    “I wouldn’t do any old song with any old artist, but I feel like history is going to be made tonight,” she teased. “So I want to be part of that.”

    Madonna, of course, came on stage and sang while a pre-arrange group in the audience, most of whom were same-sex couples, tied the knot.

    So what’s your take on Madonna at the Grammy Awards? Were you glad she kept some clothes on? Did you feel like she performed more on the red carpet than she did on the stage?

    For some–who, although they appreciate her talent feel she’s starting to look like a chewed up and spit out skinny pre-teen, it was plenty. Others, no doubt, wish she’d headlined the show.

  • Rita Ora Hospitalized For Heat Exhaustion

    Rita Ora Hospitalized For Heat Exhaustion

    While in Miami Beach on set of her photo shoot for Madonna’s Material Girl clothing line, Rita Ora reportedly passed out from heat exhaustion and dehydration and was taken to a nearby hospital.

    The singer was in the middle of a photo shoot in 90 degree weather when she was reported to have collapsed. Soon after, the beach patrol officers came to help her, and she was seen on a stretcher getting into an ambulance. The Chairman of the Emergency Department at Mount Sinai Hospital Miami, Dr. David Farcy, confirmed Ora had been treated in their hospital, and was later discharged.

    “Rita Ora was treated for heat exhaustion and dehydration at our hospital today,” Farcy said. “She was discharged and is fine.”

    Ora was named the spokesperson for Madonna and her daughter Lourdes clothing line in July. “Rita is a talented beauty but what really drew us to her is the confidence she oozes through her music and her unique sense of style,” they said in a statement. “On stage or off, in photos or on the street – she’s a magnet! This is what the Material Girl brand is all about!”

    This is not the first time that Ora has fallen ill while working. In August she had to cancel her shows due to a throat infection.
