According to Madonna’s brother and biographer, Christopher Ciccone, Madonna is trying to hit her estranged husband Guy Ritchie where it hurts – in his already atrophied professional life. Madonna recently released her directorial debut, the near universally panned Filth and Wisdom, and Ciccone thinks that she’ll continue directing. It sounds like speculation from Madonna’s brother, but he could be right:
“Apparently she wants to be directing and that’s what she’ll be doing. Two directors in the family is never going to work,” Christopher Ciccone said.
Pop queen Madonna, 50, made her directing debut with Filth And Wisdom this year, a comedy about a Ukrainian gypsy. She described the process as “essentially my way of putting myself through film school”.Ritchie found fame with his debut feature Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, but his follow-up films met with little acclaim.
“He was generally a miserable guy and he got worse. He became less and less happy as a person, I think because his career isn’t where he wants it to be,” claimed Mr Ciccone.
“Her career continues up and it’s not going down, whereas his career had dropped off and he has made a series of not very good movies.”
[From Telegraph.co.uk]
Some of the reviews of Filth and Wisdom include “tedious, pretentious, and just plain boring,” “a vanity project in the smallest sense possible,” and “thoroughly inept in just about every aspect.” Guy Ritchie’s reviews aren’t much better, particularly since he married Madonna and his career suffered from that Swept Away albatross he made with her, but at least he had some successful films in the past and is an arguably competent director.
I hope Madonna’s brother is wrong and she goes back to jumping around on stage and acting younger than she is. Maybe her egotism knows no bounds, though, and she’ll make more terrible movies that no one goes to see. It might keep her busy for a while and at least she’ll be behind the camera and not in front of it.
Meanwhile there’s a rumor that Madonna may be the next face of Louis Vuitton. The luxury goods giant must have realized that their best customers in these troubled economic times are rich old ladies.
Go away Madonna!
how apropos……
an old piece of gristle peddling old dead hides of boujis bags!! 😆
Of all the things that Madonna has been accused of, being mature isn’t one of them. She is handling this divorce like a classless teenager who just got dumped before prom.
I thought “RocknRolla” was getting pretty good reviews and was doing well at the European box office? Go Guy!
But yeah, Gristle sux. 😯
It’s true that Guy has made some sh*tty movies. But when he’s on, he’s fantastic, and there’s no way in hell that Madonna, quite possibly the nastiest turd to ever stink up the silver screen, could ever create something that might actually “compete” with Ritchie’s best films. BTW, we saw RocknRolla last weekend and it kicked ass.
So sick of Madonna … I agree with TC, she’s acting like she was wronged but yet it’s her that we hear about having an affair; poor A-Rod .. I hope he can keep his balls better than Guy did; Guy is hot he can do sooo much better!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Okay now I’ll read the article. *wipes tear from eye*
curegirl0421, you just wrote exactly what I was going to write, EXACTLY! Not much room for much other reaction really.
Say it along with me,”Stupid bitch.”
I’m so glad that now that Madonna has found religion, she is no longer a petty, immature, spiteful bitch.
Rich old ladies. Love it!!
On her future, I’ll put $20 on the second scenario:
“Maybe her egotism knows no bounds, though, and she’ll make more terrible movies that no one goes to see.”
Bingo! She has a movie star/director addiction that rivals her own sex addiction.
Madonna is and always has been nothing more than a bully. She bullied Sean, Warren, Guy and every other guy she has been with.
Not the kind of bitch I would want to take home to my parents. She is beyond spiteful.
On top of that she is a hypocrite of the worst kind. For years we have had her shove her nastiness in our faces with her sick books, videos, and just about everything else she put out there, but yet she won’t let her children watch television, the news, or anything that might corrupt her children or expose them to the very things she exposed us to.
She is a joke.
i hope she will do better movies than she sings! she react as a teen in her divorce!
LOL Do you put these Madonna stories up because they get the masses all riled up, me included? Hahahaha.
Team Guy
PS – Stupid Bitch.
If the woman cannot act, how the hell will she direct?
“I’m so glad that now that Madonna has found religion, she is no longer a petty, immature, spiteful bitch.”
Amen!
lb – Well said!
What a hypocrite Madonna is to expose children to her x-rated (and bizarre)trash for the last 25 years and yet wants to shield her own children from the very same types of trash.
Madonna, you are truly a scumbag. No wonder you ran around with that other scumbag, Michael Jackson.
The only movie Madge the Vadge could direct would be a porno film.
Is that in lou of getting a penial implant? “Mine is bigger than yours, Guy”? Her bitchiness knows no bounds, but we’ve seen the bitch bound, in black and white and coffee book form. What a gal/guy!
Madonna can douse herself in holy water and pray all she wants.
It still doesn’t make her a better person. It doesn’t change the fact that she still (unapologetically) betrayed the people in her life to get her what she wanted.
Not going to work, you miserable old hag.
She “practices” this faith and “practices” this faith but her flaws just seem to intensify and magnify instead of diminish or transcend. It is not a very good advertisement for her faith. Her Kabbalah went Kabbluey.
