Quickie Divorce for Madonna and Guy Ritchie
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Music, Divorce
What took 7 1/2 years to build ended in less than a minute.
Earlier today in a London court, a judge granted Madonna and Guy Ritchie a preliminary divorce decree. Assuming no issues come up, their marriage will officially be over in six weeks and a day.
This morning’s proceeding - which was not attended by either by either party or their lawyers - lasted approximately 54 seconds. Their case was sixth on a list that included 16 other couples.
According to the petition filed by Madonna, “unreasonable behavior” was cited as the reason for divorce. According to the Daily Telegraph, that is an option often used for “quickie” resolutions. The alternatives for divorce are “adultery, a five-year separation or for one partner to have deserted the other for at least two years.”
Although Guy could have walked away with a substantial portion of his ex’s fortune, the director has reportedly decided to settle for their estate in Wiltshire and a pub they own in the Mayfair area.

Madonna’s Brother Dishes the Dirt
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Music, Sports, Rumors
Last week, we told you how Madonna’s brother was attempting to capitalize on the singer’s fame. Now Christopher Ciccone has officially started blabbing about his new tell-all, Life with My Sister Madonna, on the airwaves.
In the first part of his Good Morning America‘s interview, Ciccone nicely defends his older sis on the Alex Rodriguez allegations but then accuses her of using kabbalah to “validate” some of her own bad behavior. He also goes on to label Guy Ritchie a homophobe and blames the director for splitting the siblings apart.

Madonna Tell-All: Do You Care?
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Music, Rumors
Madonna’s plan was “to rule the world,” when she spoke to Dick Clark on American Bandstand. The then-80s singer was decked out in her black lace best and still singing songs like “Borderline” at the time. How were we to know she would become one of the world’s biggest stars, winning accolades in not just the music industry but movies as well? Irreverent and irrepressible, Madonna quickly became the queen of pop.
It was only a matter of time before somebody released a tell-all book detailing her exploits. I just thought it would be Sean Penn.

Alex Rodriguez and Wife Reportedly Split
Well, you know what they way—misery does love company.
Today, media attention has slightly shifted away from the Madonna/Guy Ritchie saga and moved on to another troubled couple: Alex and Cynthia Rodriguez. A-Rod recently became the focus of unflattering spotlight when tabloids suggested he was having an affair with the singer.
Although Madonna’s rep denies there is anything more than a friendship between the two, it seems the gossip was more than the baseball player’s wife could handle. According to the New York Daily News, it appears Rodriguez’s five-year marriage may now be over.
In Madonna‘s defense, this is not the first time the Yankee has embarrassed his wife in public. Last year, Alex was photographed going into a strip club with a dancer. And while Cynthia apparently chose to forgive her husband (she did temporarily move out of their home), things have supposedly been rocky between the two for several months now. Sadly, the couple just welcomed their second daughter, Ella, back in April.

Madonna Denies Divorce Plans
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Music, Divorce, Rumors
Despite talk of missing bands and affairs with baseball players, Madonna’s publicist insists the singer’s marriage is not in trouble.
In an exclusive statement to People, Liz Rosenberg said, “Madonna’s husband Guy arrived in New York last night to be with his wife and family (not in a last ditch attempt to save his marriage which does not need saving). There are no plans for Madonna and Guy to divorce.”
This denial comes after a few days worth of heated gossip. Just this past weekend, Madonna and Guy Ritchie were seen attending separate kabbalah centers in different countries. Then there were the shots of the ringless fingers. (Older pictures have since proven that the two are known to not wear them.) Now Us Magazine is reporting that the singer has been spending a lot of time with Alex Rodriguez.

Madonna’s Marriage Nearing the End
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Music, Divorce, Rumors
After nearly 8 years of marriage, it’s really starting to look like things are over between Madonna and Guy Ritchie.
Sources say the two have simply fallen out of love and have been living separate lives for some time now. According to one report, Guy has even distanced himself from kabbalah, the set of teachings the singer has been closely associated with.
Although the couple have been dogged by rumors for years, Ritchie’s absence from his wife’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction in March helped fuel speculation. Now there’s word that Madonna, 49, has hired the same lawyer who helped guide Paul McCartney through his high-profile divorce proceedings.
While Guy, 39, could be entitled to nearly 1/2 of the singer’s estimated $600 million fortune, friends of the director claim its unlikely we’ll be seeing the two in court. According to one source, it’s “not his style to start profiteering from such sorry circumstances.”
As one would expect, the British journalists have latched onto this story and are continuously churning out new tidbits. Stay tuned for the developments.

Have Demi and Ashton Abandoned Kabbalah?
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Rumors
Thanks to Tom Cruise, Scientology has been hogging the religious celebrity limelight lately. But whatever happened to that oh-so-hip practice from a few years back?
Well rumor has it that two of the Kabbalah‘s most high-profile followers may have veered away from its teachings. No not dabblers Britney Spears and Paris Hilton - but rather Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher. Not only has their service attendance been spotty lately, but Kutcher was apparently seen without the telltale red bracelet. Why? No one seems to know. Maybe they just simply ran out of bleach for the whites?
Whatever the reason, I’m sure Madonna doesn’t care. Now she and Guy Ritchie can keep the Kabbalah spotlight focused on them alone.
