With the rumor mill furiously spinning stories of Madge and Guy's imminent divorce, let us take a moment to stop and acknowledge the fact that he is one fine hunk o' British beef.
Anyone who knows me well also knows that I don't believe in family loyalty and devotion for its own sake: just because you're related doesn't mean you have to like or love that person. I abhor the idea of being *obligated* to love someone! But profiting by airing dirty family laundry is, I think, a really scuzzy thing to do. It also pretty much closes the door on ever mending your differences, so I hope Ms. Ciccone (Christopher, not Mrs. Ritchie) profited *well* from his tale, because I'm sure Madge pretty much has written him off for good.
Having said that, I can't wait to read the damn thing.
You know I'll read it too! Madge is no fun now that she's lost her sense of humor. I was living in London back when Guy got exposed as a rich boy doing the "Mockney."
Ooh, when did you live in London? I lurrrrvvvv London. The last time I was there was in 2004 (I think??? Gawd, getting older sucks...); I found a Miu Miu blazer for a song at Harrod's (a switch from the usual sticker shock in London), and had a fling with someone who, appropriately enough to my other post, looked rather like John Slattery!
Not so sure, Madonna loves publicity. And she does have a new CD about to drop. And it's a good way to cancel her debt to Chris. They say she is tight with a nickel. And that she can snatch a coin off a table with her...Did I say snatch?
Except according to her brother he wouldn't like you. Or me. Or any poofters!
ReplyDeleteOoh, rough married trade. I may swoon.
ReplyDeleteChristopher Ciccone's book is on my short list of must-reads this summer, I'm sad to admit.
Being her brother I think he is entitled to tell his tale.
ReplyDeleteMay I borrow it when your done?
Add it to my list?

PS. Of course, darling, of course.

ReplyDeleteIt was a good trip.
