Madonna's Side Of The Story

Filed under: Exclusives! > Madonna > Celebrity Feuds

madonnachris1.jpg

This is so sad.

A source very close to Madonna reveals exclusively to PerezHilton.com that she is "extremely sad" and "betrayed" by her brother Christopher Ciccone's planned tell-all book about his very famous sister.

"Madonna has helped Christopher since day one of her career," says our Madge insider. "She's put him in a music video, let him direct one of her tours, decorate her homes. She's given him millions of dollars."

M is said to be closest with Christopher than with any of her other siblings, which is why his betrayal is especially painful.

But, as Madonna's publicist, Liz Rosenberg said yesterday, she and her brother are no longer close.

Why is that????

"Christopher's drug and alcohol addiction is to blame," says our very reliable source. "There came a point where his alcohol and drug abuse got out of control and she's had to cut him off. M has offered to pay for rehab and doctors, but he just won't go. The last two years, his addiction has gotten really bad."

Sources tell us that Madonna is certain that her brother is writing this "tell-all" because he needs money.

Says our insider, "Christopher can't get work. He can't function. He's been evicted from his Miami apartment. He's broke. They took away his car. M's even offered to get him a job if he goes to rehab, but he still won't go. She's never give somenoe more chances than Christopher Ciccone."

And, what also concerns Madonna, we're, told is that "Christopher is fabricating lies" and that people will believe him.

Well, we won't believe him!

To betray your own family member like this? Beyond low!

    First? Anyway, the book hasn't come out yet. Isn't she jumping the gun with the condemnation? Secondly, remember Perez that the saintly Madonna had a bit of a checkered past. It's already been out there for all to read. How in NYC she used to go cruising for guys, etc., etc. So yeah, she's talented but stop putting her on a pedestal.

    Seriously, I care about people's feelings…but Madonna can console herself with the $300 she is gouging out of people for her tour!!! Give me a break…if she was truly happy she wouldn't let this bother her. I use to LOVE her, but am getting tired of her being so greedy!!

    I'm sure they are not fabrications like Perez thinks they are. Her brother's comments in his book are probably right on. She is pure trash and I, for one, would love to hear just what a deviate she is!

  29. Yes! says – reply to this


    29

    Finally something she can't control (besides her husband's roving eye). This should be fun. Wonder if the sick fans will buy 20 copies each like they do with her crappy cd's. If it will help dear Christopher's sales I'll order 100 copies on Amazon today. Will there be a book signing? I'll be there! Yeah finally the truth will come out. How many lives has she shitted on??????

  37. Mimi says – reply to this


    37

    I think Madonna is saying that because he might come clean about the drugs she's used, etc. So she's turning the cards against him before the book comes out.

    But whatever, I don't waste my money on crap like that or Madonna's music anymore.

    the real madonna. finally the truth. she will sell you she will buy you.
    madonna got hold of a 25yr old girl who had had a baby & watched her get hypnotisied to give up the baby. she then got the girl in a lesbian relationship & dragged her round france ike a puppy. the girl cried nightly as she just wanted her baby back. madonna told the press of her new girlfriend. there was no realtionship just madonna boasting the girl was actually held hostage. there's more when she escaped madonna then moved next door to her uncle. more phonecalls royals called in. she's ill madonna. everybody knows that.
    the press gave madonna a hard time over the adoption because of what she did to that girl. she never got charged. that is what her brother is going to write about.

    51

    Really…
    I think Madonna will somehow survive whatever her brother has to say - Madonna has already done the girl kiss thing and had a naked sex book and so on and so on. She's lived most of her life in front of a camera - what's he going to say that we dont' already know? She's a bitch? She's loose? Men and women throw themselves at her? She doesn't always eat all her veggies?
    Her mantra has always been "no publicity is bad publicity" - she'll love having people talking about her - does anyone really think she cares what we think?

  52. Victo says – reply to this


    52

    Oh, come on. What hasn't she done in the last two decades? Well, I suppose we could find out that she has beaten her kids without mercy. I wouldn't believe that! Christopher's a dolt.

    53

    people will do anything for attention ,even family and friends of a certain popular celebrity will do anything to get attention and make money of their own family members, this is so typical in Hollywood and the sad part of it all is that a bunch of idiot people and the haters will eat it up because anything that anyone reveals even if it's not true will be heard and believe in and talk about so that way they don't have to deal with their own problems .

    But I guess we should believe her lies (I'm not getting divorced!) and yours Perez? You fat tub of sht. And seeing how Madonna has her minions trying to drag Christopher through the mud BEFORE the book comes out, seems M has betrayed her own family member. FIRST.

    Ok, Seriously. Who cares if he has a drug problem! She always has conditions for her generosity. If he puts his life back on track he won't need her. His very artistically driven I think his work is awesome. Finally he will say how it is and maybe if he feels like it he'll reveal some shit that nobody knows on the so called Queen of Pop. She must have a shit load of skeleton in her closet. Maybe people now won't put her on a pedastal and if she tours again the ticket prices will be reasonable. All the power to Chris Boy. She has the entire world wrpped around her finger, for what price??????????? Maybe he will reveal stuff that's been covered up for years. I could ramble on so I'll stop here.



  59. 59

    You don't do that to family, ESPECIALLY if you're from an Italian family. Besides, she's done most of her acting out in public already with "Truth or Dare", "Sex", and a very well-publicized love life. The world knows she's a ho trying really hard to be a lady.

    Re: lolit – Oh really? Prove it.. Chris has been a big fat mess for years now. My friends in Miami see him on occasion and tell me what a drunken coked up slob he is. He must be on hard times if he has to write a book on his sister. Thats fucked up… friends can come and go but you always have your family. I feel bad for her

    Go Christopher, Go! I'd like to preorder a copy of the tell-all book, and I too promise to believe everything you write!

    Madonna should be exposed as the fame harlot she is, without offering any return on our investment.

    Nobody minds a diva—but to be one, you have to give back sometimes. Mimi knows that. Madonna doesn't.

She is a freak and nutjob. She goes around really believing she is talented while deep down inside she knows she is a fraud.

    Ive parited with Christopher in NYC and can confirm his partying ways! Sad to see how it took over his life. He road the "I'm Madonna's brother train" for a long time. Drugs are BAD!

  70. tg says – reply to this


    70

    I feel very bad for Madonna, especially when you try to do ALL you can for a person you love. Unfortunately, and it is hard to explain or understand - but drug addicts ONLY loyalty is to the DRUG when they are that far gone.
    Losing their home, car, etc. etc.
    God Bless her Brother that he realize the importance of his relationship with his sister over the drug before he really does something he'll surely regret in the long run.
    I hope he doesn't print the book and I hope he goes to rehab for her sake.

    71

    Madonna has a few skeletons in her closet, but that's her fault. I live in NYC and ran around the same circle of people that surrounded her and she was not innocent. She used to cruise the Lower East Side picking up Latino boys for her one night stands. She'd take credit for ideas people in her circle came up with and stepped on a few toes with her diva attitude. Guess your past will come and bite you on the ass.

    Perez the rift in their relationship came when she married the homophobic Mr. Guiy Ritchie. Madonna's brother loves the cock just like you do and Guy couldn't deal with being around him and Madonna dropped. I'm surprised that you blindly support Madonna despite her husbands homophobic nature.

  77. Luv2M says – reply to this


    77

    I do believe that she's given him millions. He is functioning with a drug altered brain. She has the strength of character to be teflon, and it will be a case of possibly bad publicity, depending upon the content, and in the long run it will serve to increase her visibility; but it puts her in the precarious position of having to try to stop him legally pending determination of the accuracy of the book. Barring that, it becomes about the quandary of perhaps having to sue her own brother over the content, which she just might have to do. She has feelings, and she's spent her whole life building her public career, and as such, has a legal say in how she is represented if the book contains outright falsehoods. Public perception affects her livelihood. She needn't worry, because she can get through this, but my question is whether her brother can. He surely needs help.

    or maybe he's just bitter because of his sister and what her stupid Mickey Mouse, made up faith (Kabbalah) believes about homosexuals.

  80. Luv2M says – reply to this


    80

    Judas, on drugs. He needs to be tuned in personally, one on one, by the entire family. He has lost his way. The book is only planned, at this point. The brother needs to realize in no uncertain terms that whoever is encouraging this book is not his 'friend,' but someone attempting to capitalize on his sister's fame and on Christopher's current situation. It could still be turned around at this point. Ge could possibly lose any profit he would make in lawsuits, and should think twice.

    All of you Haters (ie LAMBS) need to stop being so ignorant and get lives.
    You'll just post any hateful and mean thing, to support your stupid Mariah,
    won't you? So sad, ALL of you. And by the way, BOTH Madonna and Mariah
    are now out of the top 10 (at #14 and #15), but '4 minutes' is STILL in the top 10. Where is 'Touch my Body'?? And after 8 weeks, "Bye Bye" is barely cracking the top 20. I'd say Madonna's doing just fine, Lambs. She hasn't even released the 2nd single yet and is beating Mariah in OVERALL sales (not just the US counts, as you all so falsely claim, to make sure your diva stays on top of a losing battle). Say all the shit you want about Madonna, but she is STILL and will ALWAYS be Queen!

    Patsy, that's because the book hasn't come out yet… Did you see this guy on Top Chef last season? He's a complete mess and I don't think he's capable of being fair or truthful. He's only trying to make money to buy more drugs.
    All this, after she tried to help him. He's a loser.
