Christopher Rips Madonna Again


Christopher Ciccone
continues to attack his sister Madonna (what else is the guy gonna do)? His latest criticism concerns her acting career and the way she ruined it by demanding too much control over her films. "When she relinquishes control and allows other people to do what they are good at, she produces something like Evita; like Desperately Seeking Susan. The girl can act, it's just the wrong choices and too much control."

Desperately Seeking Susan? That's what we're holding up as an example of the kind of great contribution Madonna can make to cinema when she does it right? Christopher...you seem like a smart guy and I want to like you, but you make it very difficult when you say things like that. Plus, the girl can't act. And can't sing and can't dance all that well. She's really good at making religious people angry - which ain't hard - and stealing ideas from gays. Her career is smoke and mirrors and media manipulation. In 50 years when people look at her actual output they're going to wonder what the fuss was about.

All Bull?


Did Madonna have a hand in her brother Christopher's lukewarm tell-all? A source blabbed to Page 6:

The supposed scandal about Christopher Ciccone's book is bullshit. She actually ghost-wrote parts of it with him, the way Princess Diana helped Andrew Morton write his book on her. That's why there's nothing too devastating in Chris's book. He's mean to others, but not so much to his sister.

I wouldn't put it past her.

Christopher Ciccone Talks Madonna




Christopher Ciccone does not seem like a fool. He seems thoughtful and articulate and serious. He is obviously also resentful of Madonna...and he hates homophobic Guy Ritchie's guts. The best bit is when he talks about how Kabbalah "validates Madonna's bad behavior." He suggests that Madonna gets away with being a bully and an asshole more readily now because she's "got God on her side." There is no bigger signal of self-righteousness and egomania than thinking your words carry authority bestowed upon you by God. That's edging into psychosis.
