    Didn’t that Chris Anderson biography claim they had a lesbian affair? Am I remembering that correctly? 

    Perhaps that’s far fetched but she may have had feelings for her. Assuming she’s a lesbian? (I honestly don’t know if she is or isn’t.)

    It's quite evident and not some revelation that Madonna likely s*cked and f*cked her way to the top in those earlier days.

    I can see why she moved on from Camille. I mean, we will never know; pure speculation, but, M was probably so artistically motivated. She wanted to be the biggest, as big as Michael at that time. Camille wouldn’t take her there, and she simply moved on and got lucky. 

    She used, abused, hit it then quit it. It's not bad when it's due to ambition, right?

    Yes!  There is always friction with big families (even small ones).  A lot of it comes down to jealousy. Then again, there are some who just play the victim card that causes friction. I think when it comes to Christopher, she was funding him...employing him for years, but the moment she felt that it was time to draw back, hoping he would correct his drug issues, he got bitter and nasty. This is typical of those who are addicted to substances if not abusive to others. They lash out and displace blame.  Like many of us have already pointed out, without Madonna he wouldn't have a book. No one would care what he'd have to say. But since he chose to dish about his sister, he knew he had a chance of cashing in.  It doesn't matter to me if much of his "dish" is nothing harmful. It's the fact he went out of his way and behind her back to write a book about her.  Anyone else working for her, probably would have gotten sued by her for breach of contract.  But being he is family and I believe to keep the peace in her own family, she let bygones be bygones without making much of a stink publicly about it.  In fact, I don't recall her even acknowledging it at all publicly.  I think she simply was keeping the peace in favor to her father.

    Come back to this thread after you've actually read the book, perhaps?

    Sorry but until then, your take is quite meaningless.

  5. First of all, could the Xtina stans please STFU with their insidious jealousy towards P!nk because of Xtina's dwindling career?

    Thanks for highlighting this supportive quote by P!nk about M. The big P!nk fans in the house know that she's been praising M since the start of her career though.

    I've been a big P!nk fan since the first album (though the last few haven't been my faves, admittedly), and her mind and personality are a big part of the appeal.

    She often has refreshingly unique perspectives that the average pop star is too simple or inarticulate to express, quite honestly.

    By the way, if you venture into the P!nk thread, you'll see a bunch of M references there that I posted a while ago.

    What is there to consider? It’s not as though this is an autobiography of his life. It is a tell all about Madonna’s life, and more to the point, her personal life. Key word here is PERSONAL. If Madonna had said that she agreed to him writing this book then I would have been on board with it and would have read it, but she clearly was not happy that he had wrote it and I dare say it hurt her very much. So with that in mind I will not read it or support it. I’m a Madonna fan and I have her back, just like she’s had ours for 40 years. 

    It's also about his own life, but you do not know what you do not know.

    And of course it hurt her, partly because it was out of her control.

    Have you ever read gossip about her elsewhere? Thought so.

    I'm a stan for her work.

    But don't feel the need to defend her over every little thing or think she can do no wrong. That was cute til I was in my 30's and like "OK, Mary...people have different opinions. Not a big deal".

    Same. I'm somewhat of a fanatic, but not a deluded tragic.

    If she had less unattractive traits and made better music for the past decade or so, I might still be the stan that I used to be.

    I too have never read it. M gave him some fantastic opportunities and he repays her by writing a book about her and her life to make a quick buck. He has no integrity at all and I don’t blame her for not trusting him again. I hope she has moved on and forgiven him for her own peace of mind, but like they say, you can forgive but never forget. She deserves more respect from her brother. 

    Has not read the book to fully consider the other side's perspective, yet is still very comfortable passing judgement. Nice one.

    Guys Ritchies response about the book. 

    Ritchie also commented regarding accusations by Ciccone about him being a homophobe, saying: "I don't make anything of the book. The poor chap wrote it out of desperation. I don't think it'd be intelligent to comment on that. I can't give too much equity in what the chap's gonna write in that book. But you'd be hard pushed to be a homophobe and marry Madonna."

    Guy's response means nothing to Chris or Madonna.

    Replace 'chap' with 'f****t' and that would probably be his truer feeling.

  10. Was it cool that he wrote a book about his sister? No. Did she deserve a bit of humbling after years of mistreatment? Probably.

    She often abused their working relationship, and knew she could get away with it by allowing him to bask in her spotlight as the supplement.

    There's a reason why Silvio chose to support Christopher regarding the book's release, despite Madonna's pleas to the both of them.

    I enjoyed the book for all of the insights that only her closest brother could share, and didn't even think it was that scathing.
