Guy Ritchie To Direct Sgt. Rock?
If Joel Silver gets his way, and we reckon that probably happens quite a lot, he may well have found the man to direct his long-gestating adaptation of comic-book solider boy Sgt. Rock. Having worked with Guy Ritchie on his upcoming RocknRolla, the uber producer believes Mr Madonna is the right man to make DC’s military man into a movie. If Ritchie, who recently created his own comic book line with The Gamekeeper, manages to get the World War II-based hero’s movie off the ground it’ll be someth

EXCLUSIVE: A-Rod Said He Was "in Love With Madonna"
Just met? Hardly. New York Yankee Alex Rodriguez was smitten with Madonna six months ago when he was exchanging text messages with her while dining with a friend in Miami. "He kept smiling, acting as if he was a little kid," the dinner companion tells Us Weekly in its latest issue, on newsstands now. "He told me it was Madonna," A-Rod's friend says. "I was shocked."

Guy's quitting Kaballah!
Guy Ritchie and Madonna's marriage has been thrown deeper into meltdown after he told her he's quitting Kabbalah. Madge has become increasingly involved with the mystical Jewish religion, but her film director husband is a step closer to hitting the road after losing his faith. Friends say his recent revelation has widened the gap between the pair, who are leading separate lives despite officially remaining man and wife. Yesterday I revealed how they barely spent any time together during a three-day

"Life With My Sister Madonna" Offers Plenty of Details
Not only Madonna’s brother Christopher Ciccone tells on his sister but he also feels sorry for the Madonna he “once knew.” According to the Los Angeles Times, Christopher Ciccone, Madonna’s little brother, thought that her sister was not getting enough attention from the media and put up for sale his book “Life with My Sister Madonna.” Perfect timing, I say. In the book, Ciccone talks about Madonna’s marriage to Guy Ritchie, about the time Madonna lost her virginity and about many more priv

Ringless Guy Richie Boards Flight to NYC
A ringless Guy Richie was photographed Monday at London's Heathrow Airport for a flight to New York, presumably to meet up with Madonna. The two spent this past weekend apart as split rumors swirl. Looking anguished, Madonna, 49 attended Sabbath service at the Kabbalah Centre in NYC on Friday and Saturday (along with her three children and daughter Lourdes' biological dad Carlos Leon). The singer - who was not wearing a wedding ring - ignored photographers' repeated questions if divorce rumors were

Brother backs Madonna's marriage
Madonna's brother has said his sister would work hard to maintain her marriage to film director Guy Ritchie. Christopher Ciccone, who has written a book about the pop star, made the comments on US TV network ABC. "She's not the type of person just to walk away," he said, referring to reports that the couple's eight-year relationship was on the rocks.

Madonna & Guy Enjoy Dinner - Together! - in N.Y.C.
Diners at New York City's 'Cesca, an Italian eatery on the Upper West Side, got a surprise Tuesday night when Madonna and husband Guy Ritchie walked in, holding hands. They looked "like a normal couple that just wanted to have a nice dinner out," says an onlooker. "They looked very unassuming. Not like they were looking for attention." Seasoned New Yorkers are quite accustomed to spotting celebrities at the restaurant (and Madonna does have an apartment in the neighborhood). Still, seeing the queen of

Madonna's marriage to Guy Ritchie is from hell, says brother
Madonna's brother claims in his dirt-dishing new book that the singer's marriage is plagued by explosive fights and held together only by a trusted rabbi who makes house calls. Christopher Ciccone's much-anticipated tell-all threatens to expose the secrets of Madonna's relationship with hubby, Guy Ritchie, just as rumors swirl about her ties to Yankee slugger Alex Rodriguez. The Material Girl meanwhile has told A-Rod to "shut up" about their relationship and to quiet his family and confidants, reports The

So Shaq and A-Rod Walk into a Bar ...
How perfect. A-Rod needs a shoulder to lean on, and guess who shows up? Another world-class athlete with relationship problems. Alex Rodriguez and Shaquille O'Neal huddled for roughly 30 seconds at the 40/40 club last night, looking pretty intense. Don't know what they talked about, but Shaq surely must have some tips to throw A's way. A-Rod was hosting the shindig, so guess what music the DJs played -- Madonna. At one point A-Rod went to the bathroom, but not before security swept the crapper of

Madonna to Divorce Guy Ritchie?!
Sources have revealed exclusively to Holy Moly that Madonna has hired Britain's toughest divorce lawyer, Nicholas Mostyn QC, to kick start divorce proceedings against her husband of eight years, Guy Ritchie. Mostyn will no doubt strike fear into the heart of Guy - he is the man who sorted out Heather Mills, trounced Earl Spencer and almost destroyed Ray Parlour in his previous high profile divorce cases. Suggestions made seem to indicate that, surprisingly, Madonna and Guy do NOT have a pre-nup in pla

Is that stress showing in your face, Madonna, or attempts to defy the ravages of time?
Most women are susceptible to the odd hair day - but less likely is a bad face day. But then Madonna has had a lot on her plate recently with divorce rumours rife and being accused of destroying US baseball player Alex Rodriguez's marriage. Oh. And her brother's book, which portrays her as a power-obsessed monster.

Madonna Attends Sabbath Services - No Wedding Ring or Husband!

(He first talked about the incident in his 2008 biography Vindicated.) "She wanted to get married and have a child with me — she wanted a Cuban child," he tells Us. Canseco recalls: "We went downstairs [at her hous

Comic-Con Crazy: Keanu Reeves Stares Into Space; Paris Hilton's Vast Vocabulary
Everyone from Paris Hilton to Guy Ritchie to Hugh Jackman to The Rock descended upon the San Diego convention center on Thursday for the world's largest comic book convention: Comic-Con. While the streets were lined with thousands of Batmen, Wonder Women and anime creatures, the biggest surprise was a very hairy and well-built Jackman, who gave a sneak peek at "Wolverine," which only wrapped filming in Australia less than two weeks ago. FOXNews.com's Pop Tarts column also had a quick chat with Jennife

MADGE 'GHOSTED' BRO'S TELL ALL
Madonna is truly the master of media manipulation. "The supposed scandal about [her brother] Christopher Ciccone's book is bull[bleep]," an insider told Page Six. "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." In addition, Madge, now frighteningly rail thin, exploited Alex Rodriguez. "She flirted with him and manipulated him," ou

Borat & Ferrel to do Sherlock
Columbia Pictures has set an untitled comedy that Will star Sacha Baron Cohen as master detective Sherlock Holmes and Will Ferrell as Watson, his crime-solving partner. Etan Cohen ("Tropic Thunder") is writing the script, and Judd Apatow and Jimmy Miller Will produce. The comedy is inspired by Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes tales. Though the thrust is different, the Baron Cohen-Ferrell pairing is the second major studio project featuring the supersleuth, as Warner Bros. is prepping the Anthony P

Does Madonna have a Sex Tape?
Could this be true? Most celebs attempt the sex tape PR when their careers are tanking, and since Madonna’s is anything but, there may be more truth to this than it sounds. She’s been caught unwittingly apparently in a sex tape scandal with A-Rod, for a tape that was allegedly made just a few short months ago. A cameraman who is of course, unidentified, claims to have a video of the two having a good old fashioned romp on the sofa. And of course he’s asking for a cool 2 million for it, so maybe th
