Brooklyn Beckham vs Rocco Ritchie: a new generation steps into the spotlight

One is the Beckhams’ eldest boy, the other the son of Madonna and Guy Ritchie, and now they’re stepping into the spotlight. We hail a new generation

Their mums were once pop world rivals, their dads are both London boys, but now Rocco Ritchie, 13, is lending Brooklyn Beckham, 14, a hand in the social media circus. Ritchie instagrammed Beckham’s account, saying: “Shout out to home boy @bbrooklynbbeckham #follow”. Madonna’s sprog is a big deal on Instagram, with 37,875 followers to Beckham’s 14,388. But how do they fare in the rest of their lives? Step aside for the next generation, with Brooklyn versus Rocco. Maybe this is the start of a beautiful partnership — Brocco?
The connections
Brooklyn
The eldest child of Brand Beckham, Brooklyn is apparently named after the New York borough where he was conceived. He’s got a gaggle of photogenic siblings — Romeo, 11, Cruz, eight, and Harper, two. A photo of him carrying his fashionable little sister with the caption “love u guys” will warm even the chilliest cockles.
Brooklyn often accompanies his Spice-Girl-turned-fashion-darling mother to events: while accepting a gong at the Glamour Woman of the Year Awards, VB called him “the most handsome man in the room”. His dad David often watches his eldest lad play football — though godparents Elton John and Liz Hurley have yet to be spotted on the sidelines.
Rocco
Rocco is the only natural child of the Madonna and Guy Ritchie union. But company comes in the form of five siblings: Lourdes, 17, his half-sister from Madonna’s relationship with Carlos Leon, David, eight, whom his parents adopted together from Malawi, Mercy James, seven, a Malawian child adopted by Madge, and Ritchie’s two young children from his second marriage to model Jacqui Ainsley.
Rocco also scored a singer as a godfather: Sting. He gets on well with his mum’s new man, Brahim Zaibat — there’s a picture of them with scarves wrapped round their heads, saying: “Me and @bramski6 are party animals we went #zodd #cajj.”
And although he seems tough, he’s really a mummy’s boy — he instagrammed a picture of Elizabeth II, saying: “There’s only one Queen, and that’s Madonna ... Bitch.” He recently joined Madge on stage as a masked dancer to launch new film Secret Revolution and is a fan of flaunting the guns, suggesting he’s taking her image tips. Is a set of matching grills to come?

Madonna Started Filming The "Bedtime Story" Video on December 5 1994.

The inspiration behind the video. Hello everyone! This month’s music video to be analyzed is the for “Bedtime Story”, While this video is tricky for its various sources of inspiration, it’s one of her best, if not  the   best, and an underrated one by most fans. I am sure that, after reading all of this, you’ll find yourself more in love with the true artist Madonna really is. Madonna called upon “Rain” director Mark Romanek to do the music video for “Bedtime Story” after she saw what he had done with Nine Inch Nails’ “Closer”. As she always does, she listened to the song over and over again, trying to think of a concept for a video. The theme she held on to for this one was dreams, it’s meaning, concepts, imagery and works based on it. She’s a huge fan of surrealistic art, in which lots of paintings deal about dreaming, or allude to something unfathomable in real life. She held to that and brought that concept to Romanek, that really liked the idea and wanted to add ...

Rolling Stone - June 13, 1991 - Flesh and Fantasy - Big Time Girl Talk with Carrie Fisher

Madonna and I had met many times over the years, but we had never actually had a conversation. It took this interview to bring us together – she as icon, I as inquisitor of icon [after all, I have already distinguished myself as friend of icon, relative of icon and ex-wife of icon]. I had never done an interview before, and I don’t know that I will again. For me, this has all the makings of a waterloo. The first of the two sessions for this interview took place in the restaurant of the Four Seasons Hotel in Los Angeles. Madonna wore gold lame; I probably wore black. The last session took place in the offices of her manager, Freddy DeMann. Madonna wore a negligee; I probably wore black. I was late for that first meeting because a friend who had AIDS and who was staying with me had suddenly developed a fever. I called Madonna to say I was on my way. “You’re late,” she informed me. I explained about my friend. “Well, okay, that’s a good excuse,” she said. By the time of our fina...
