By noreply@blogger.com (Madonnasworld) Washington (ANI): Pop singer Madonna's former pal Rupert Evertt has revealed that the singer has not forgiven him after he branded her an 'old whiny barmaid' and published intimate secrets of their friendship in his 2006 autobiography. The actor befriended the 'Material Girl' hitmaker in 1985 when she first began dating Sean Penn and, in his memoir 'Red Carpets' and Other Banana Skin's, Everett admitted he was fascinated by her from their very first meeting. "She really didn't like it (the book). I think it is very affectionate, and certainly with her I was very careful to only write things that were," Contactmusic quoted him as saying.   [read the full post]

Jellybean Benitez, the D.J. who remixed songs for her when they were a couple in the 1980s, might be a judge on "American Idol." When he met Madonna, also a kabbalah devotee, last December, she had been divorced from the filmmaker Guy Ritchie for one month. Although some gossip Web sites have reported that Madonna pays Mr. Luz an "allowance," he said that was ridiculous. "I'm laughing so loud," he said. He finished his sets last weekend by mashing together "We Come From Light" with a Madonna hit.   [read the full post]

By noreply@blogger.com (Madonnasworld) LILONGWE (Reuters) - Malawi threatened on Thursday to arrest protesting villagers blocking construction of Madonna's multi-million dollar girls academy, a new controversy for the singer in the African country where she has adopted two children. About 140 villagers are demanding more money for land the government has leased to Madonna's charity -- Raising Malawi -- for 99 years. In June this year, Malawi's Supreme Court overturned a lower court ruling made in April which said Madonna could not adopt a four-year-old girl -- Mercy James -- because the singer was not a resident of the country. An AIDS epidemic has left more than a million children orphaned in Malawi, a country of 13 million people.   [read the full post]

By Madonnasworld(noreply@blogger.com) Madonna entered the Air Canada Stage on an "M"-marked pimp throne with Candy Shop," the title track off her latest studio album Hard Candy. In the words of Dee Daly, 28, a first-time Madonna attendee, she entered in true M form, "with her legs spread open and ready to go." A virtual Britany Spears also appeared in a remixed version of "Human Nature." Vogue" sampled with "4 Minutes" and a house version of "Like a Prayer" brought the desired Madonna dance fever. "Like a Prayer" was Daly's favourite performance; it reminded her of the classical moment in the controversial video when a back-up singer places her hand on M's forehead before breaking it down with the choir. "It was like in church and all of a sudden Jesus came to talk to us," said Daly.   [read the full post]

By Madonnasworld Before "Hard Candy," Madonna had never before opened her legs for an album cover. Two decades ago, her patchouli-scented belly adorned the sleeve of the intimate "Like a Prayer," and in 2005 she showed a bit of derriere for the disco-nostalgic "Confessions on a Dance Floor."
