We love Madge. Sure, she's a self-important, egotistical old blow-hard. But we're loyal. She was cranking out fun dance music when we were young and cute, so we have a soft spot for her.
But this cougar routine of hers is getting embarrassing.
It's not enough that Brazilian boy toy Jesus Luz (22) has moved in to her Upper West Side home and lives there with Madge (50), Lourdes (12) Rocco (8) and David (3). That's OK. After all, lots of families in that income bracket have an au pair.
But now Madonna and Jesus are going to have a not-actually-legally-binding Kabbalah "commitment ceremony." You know, because in hidebound, reactionary New York State, it's legal for a single, heterosexual woman to marry a single, heterosexual man.
But why get married? Been there/done that. Why not have somebody recite some not-legally-binding mystical mumbo-jumbo to make things look sort of semi-respectable, in case you want to adopt some more kids? And no need to worry about pre-nups or messy, expensive divorce proceedings.
So the question on everyone's mind is: will the not-really-a-bride wear white?
P.S. Great minds think alike: Lourdes calls Jesus "the babysitter." We expect great things from that one.
I give this fling six more months, tops.
speaking of cougars, i heard that sugar ray is releasing a new album called "music for cougars". maybe madonna should give that a listen.
