The Un-Christmas Dinner at Madonna's House

Karen — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 14:09:00 GMT

Recent gossip surrounding Madonna and Christmas (whether she celebrates or whether she doesn't) had me confused until I realized she is crazy. Personally I could care less if her family celebrates Christmas, since it's something I'd love to quit but only because of the running around. I wish Santa was real so I could sit back and enjoy the holiday!

This story caught my attention and I heard a scream as I finished reading it: "No Wire Hangers!"

Yes, Madonna reminds me of a ghost of Christmas past -- Joan Crawford.

Oh I hope it's not like that in their house, but this tidbit from "a friend" had me concerned:

"They entertain beautifully, but it isn't what you would call conventional,'' a friend says.

"A housekeeper will set out a great big table covered in stuff, all macrobiotic, which no one dares eat unless Madonna tucks in.

"They're all terrified of her.''

Apparently Madonna never strays from her daily 2-3 hour workout. So there's speculation she'll fit that in as well. I guess if she doesn't have to cook a giant turkey and stuffing, she's got the time.

Maybe she's on to something, but it sounds miserable to me. Hurry up Lourdes and write a book.

Christmas Not Completely Cancelled At Madonna's Household

There is a Santa after all! There may not be any Christmas in the Madonna/Ritchie household, but there will be some gift giving going on!

Madonna's husband, Guy Ritchie told Extra, that he and Madonna have amended their tradtions with their children, Lourdes, 11, Rocco, 7, and David, 2 but that there is still room for a few presents. "The kids are only allowed three presents. So by the time they get to the third present they've had their sugar hit. As long as the kids get three presents at Christmas, everyone's being happy." I suppose if you're Madonna's kid, three presents could be quite awesome!

There have been reports that the family had converted to Judaism, which holds Kabbalah under it's religious unbrella, but Guy says, not so. "I don' think anyone's converted to Judaism in my family. I have no converted to Judaism and neither has my wife. Sheesh, dontcha just hate gossip?

Merry Christmas Madonna and family!

Madonna Thinks We Are a Bunch of Idiots, Compares "Snatch" to "Revolver"

Madonna must think we are a bunch of idiots. She's aiming to boost hubby Guy Ritchie's movie, "Revolver."

The pop washup has decided to kick things off with a party, and she's invited Howard Stern, Lauren Bacall, Helena Christensen, Patricia Clarkson and Ivanka Trump. If she invited anyone less interesting, they would be dead people.

A pal says the flick was marketed to British audiences as a comedic romp similar to Ritchie’s “Snatch” - but it left them confused by its more “cerebral” theme. (Or “pretentious style and fractured storytelling,” as The Hollywood Reporter sniffed.) The movie was also slammed by critics in the UK.

“You have to pay attention — you may have to sit through it twice to figure it out,” co-star Vincent Pastore (who plays opposite Ray Liotta, Jason Statham and Andre Benjamin) told me yesterday. “Which I just did with ‘No Country for Old Men,’ so it doesn’t mean it’s a bad movie.”

I'm sorry, WHAT? You have to sit through a crapass movie TWICE to "get it?" Yeah okay Madonna, and I'll rush right out and buy two copies of that Britney Spears album and stab myself in not one, but both ears. You can promote a bag of flaming poop all you want sweetheart, but at the end of the day, it's still a bag of flaming poop. Just look at Britney.
