Madonna and ex Guy Ritchie are at odds over custody of their son Rocco, 15. After the teen decided not to board a plane leaving London for NYC, a judge ordered that Rocco must return to his famous mom in New York. Ritchie’s lawyer Eric Buckley argued that Rocco wanted to spend Christmas with his father,  saying , "He has expressed very clearly that he does not want to return to New York," but Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Deborah Kaplan wasn’t in agreement. Kaplan ordered that Guy must take Rocco back to NYC and said that the teen will have his own appointed lawyer. Kaplan told Madonna, "I’m granting you all the relief you have requested. I’m directing the child to be returned to New York. If he wants to stay with his father, he must return to his mother.”  Kaplan also ordered Madonna and Richie not to discuss their legal proceedings with Rocco. Madonna left the hearing surrounded by court security officers, assistants, and her own bodyguards.   The superstar and di

Evening Times 5 star review: “Whether you come back or not, Madonna, this was a night none will forget.”

A  5 star  rave review of yesterday  Madonna  show in Glasgow appeared on the  Evening Times . Check it out: Some of you perhaps thought the Queen of Pop was the girl who wouldn’t grow up, and was still out to shock and trade provocations with lasses less than half her age. Wise up, because the  Rebel Heart show is the work of a woman who has shown no inclination to compromise over 30 years of work and would like to remind us of that . We are ages, Madge and I, but I hadn’t seen her perform live since the Who’s That Girl tour visited Leeds Roundhay Park in 1986, an era she specifically recalled with a singalong acoustic version of the song and a thanks to her fans for supporting her over the past three decades – leading into her latest anthem Ghosttown, and the title-track of Rebel Heart. This show is a careful celebration of all things Madonna as well as a comprehensive plug for the new album, and if a retiral announcement would be as believable as Sinatra’s, it would still be a

When ordered, six tracks including "Bitch I'm Madonna" were available for digital download.

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 something
