Madonna's Side Of The Story
Filed under: Exclusives! > Madonna > Celebrity Feuds
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!
This is so sad. The man needs help! Someone call A&E…we need to get this man an Intervention.
That is so low!
I love Madge!
Re: FU Pe –
Of course you'd buy it. Did you vote for Bush too??
What a predicament for Madonna…. Her brother must truely be an addict to sell out his sister. I think the best thing she could do would be to sue him for defemation of charecter, that way he won't be able to have much drug money. I will always love Madonna's music, and you take the good with the bad….. xxoo
Very sad story…
Madonna is still the best!
Is Give it To Me even on the charts????
Hard Candy really seems to be a dud.
i believe madonna. family thinks that you're obligated to bail them out just because you're blood. if you don't want to help yourself, fuck off.
Perez get off of Madonna dick
But will you buy and read his book?
She cut him off financially and now he needs to make money. Let me think…how could he make some money….I know! Get a job like the rest of us!
Oh, and you've already read the book so you know he's betrayed her. What about the not so nice things you spew about people everyday?
Please, madonna's publicist is using you like a tool. She's only NICE to you so you give her publicity you cow. And you suck up to her because your a star fucker and maybe you'll go back stage and print pictures so you can say "look, I was a unpopular biter fat kid but now look at me, they like me, really she's my friend", she's not your friend. Don't forget your birthday….NO ONE BIG SHOWED. Show's you how loyal your friends are.
we know she's the Queen of Whores. what can he possibly say in this book that will surprise us?
Re: GiveI –
Give it 2 me hasn't been released yet. It's going to be released next week to radio. Don't worry it will do better than 'Bye Bye'…
Re: Da R –
Ooh that's deep, 'Da R'…
I think the 'Queen of Whores' is already reserved for another
diva that we shall not name… LOL
Good for Madonna for atleast giving him opportunities to get well. It's so sad, because Christopher seems like such a talented artist. And, why would he betray Madonna other than his own motives? Such a douche. He looks like Boy George. WASHED UP!
Why is it bad for him to fabricate lies? You do it every day, Perez. And, P.S. why didn't you write 'g-a-y-f-a-c-e' on his photo? Are you trying to get everyone to forget that you sort of popularized that phrase (before Jay Leno got in such trouble for it)?
Re: Anony –
Wow, 'Anony'… You are dazzling us with wisdom, intellect and perfect
spelling and grammar… 'I was a unpopular biter fat kid '???
Maybe you should have stayed in school, loser.
I HAVE BEEN A HUGE FAN OF MADONNA'S FOR YEARS
BUT I GOT TO KNOW CHRISTOPHER AND HE'S AN AMAZING GUY
YES, SHE HAS HELPED HIM OUT IN THE PAST, BUT SHE HAS ALSO BEEN A TOTAL BITCH TO HIM AND NOT BEEN THERE FOR HIM AT SOME REALLY LOW MOMENTS IN HIS LIFE
DON'T THROW THE STONE UNTIL YOU READ HIS SIDE OF THE STORY
CALL HIM A DRUG ADDICT BUT I CAN TELL YOU ONE THING
MADONNA HAS DONE ENOUGH SHIT THAT HE DOES NOT HAVE TO MAKE UP LIES
CHRISTOPHER IS A GOOD GUY!
man, that sucks…………..fucking shmuck
WTF Family sucks you help them and then they stab you in the back.. I know how Madonna feels its happened to me. I have a crack head brother and he made my life a living hell cause I wouldn't give him any money. I wouldn't belive one word from a druggie. We all have a past so what and who cares. Madonna's work and what she does speaks for its self. When someone has to defend themselves its pretty sucky. I'm on Madonna's Team!!!
THAT PIC IS ONE OF THE OLSON TWINS YOU STUPID DOUCHEBAG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
.
.
.
OH SNAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
.
.
.
YOU'LL HAVE TO FORGIVE ME…..I HAVE FLYING MONKEYS LIVING IN MY HEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BUT IT'S ALL GOOD
.

JIMMYJAZZ IS GONNA GET ON HIS THREE HEADED ORANGE DINASAUR AND FLY TO VENUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! VENUS IS STILL A NICE COUNTRY I DON'T CARE WHAT ANYONE SAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
.
.
.
HEY HO'S….HOLLER AT A BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
From what I've read above — I take it her brother won't hold back on dishing about her.
-
-
Good ! That's exactly why I will by it — she CAN'T control him - many of you above convinced me of that — and that's EXACTLY what I'd like to read.

I absolutely believe his book with have more, albeit, kernels of truth than Hag's PR MACHINE.
I feel for her. This is what addiction does. I'm living through it with my oldest and dearest friend who is destroying himself no matter what anyone tries to do for him. Watch any reality addiction show, and it's all there. This is what addiction to booze and/or drugs does to your brain, people. Smoking is just annoying. Booze kills.
What the fuck I thought that was Mary Kate Olsen when I looked at her from a distance o_o weird haha =p
Bullcrap!!! Madonna leaked this pathetically deceitful crap as a pre-emptive strike. She knows that her brother is going to tell us all of the things we have already suspected about her for years and she's running scared. What better way to pre-emptively discredit her brother than to leak a message about how she is supposedly "so very worried about him and so very willing to help him even though he's turned on her". What CRAP! Perez, you are SO UNBELIEVABLY IGNORANT. You sometimes have the emotional and intellectual capacity of a 12 year old. You believe what you want to believe with absolutely NO definitive truth with which to back up your faith. GROW THE HELL UP!!! Talk to some REAL Madonna insiders. You will quickly see that your dear old hag Madge's true character is wholly reflective of a life spent bottom dwelling.
Re: meme –
Go for it, loser. Support the crackhead and help him make money, so he can buy more drugs. It's people like you that give these losers ammunition to be celebrities, when they are actually losers. Why else would someone sell out their sister? You people make me sick.
You obviously know very little about addiction. An addict will do and/or say anything just to get by. Sounds like he needs an intervention.
Mariah is behind this! Nick Cannon is the real author!
Lola looks like Chris. Madonna should just bail his ass out, because she is his sister. Truth be told people will always open the door for him, because of who he is related to. It seems like he is hitting bottom, but I don't think his name will allow him to hit bottom.
Guy Ritchie hates gays- but he married Madonna- go figure. What is there about this whore that we haven't read or SEEN all ready? There is NOTHING that he could write that would surprise me or enlighten me. Madonna is, and has been, vastly overrated but incredibly commercial.
you better be careful what you say Perez- libel laws STILL apply to people on the internet and just because you got away with stealing copyrighted images doesn't mean you can get away with defamation of character. If I was that guy, and if you just said all those things and they weren't true, I'd get the biggest lawyer in town to put you out.
Wonder if his tell-all will be worse than J. Taborelli's. Made her look really bad.
This is not the least bit surprising. As someone that has know him for years, I can say for a fact that there are few people more angry, vial or cruel than CC. If she cut him off, he deserved it! He has been a boozer and drug fiend for a long time. She will have no problem finding plenty of people that will stick up for her. If you ask me, she's well rid of him!!!
This is really sad.
I have family who have fallen in the addiction wagon and they will stop at nothing no matter who they betray or hurt to satisfy their addiction.
My cousin went into his mothers house and stole all her shit just to get some money. It gets to a point where they are so addicted that they have no idea what they are doing.
I THINK EVERYONE WILL BE SURPRISED BY HOW MUCH CHRISTOPHER DID IN THE EARLY STAGES OF MADONNA'S CAREER TO HELP HER OUR CREATIVELY
THEN SHE DUMPED HIM ON HIS ASS
YES, HE DOES LIKE TO PARTY
BUT HE HAS BEEN THROUGH A LOT B/C OF HER
CAN YOU IMAGINE BEING MADONNA'S BROTHER AND BEING GAY?
IF HE WANTS TO TELL HIS STORY
I SAY GO FOR IT AND I WILL READ IT FOR SURE!!
Re: Lola – Re: insid – Bitch there you go generalizing on drug addicts. Not all are scum. Some are FUN. You just get to be careful. FYI if Madonna was preaching one thing and turns around and does another.
I know Christopher, SHE"S A MESS!!! But I am dying to see what he has to say about my girl Madge, being that he NEVER talks about her, even when he's all coked out!! LOL!!
The sad thing is Madonna's mother died when she was 5? I think and she acted and always has like a mother to her brothers esp. Looking out for them and trying to put 2 in rehab. People hate Madonna thats fine, but imagine if the only person the closest person to you in your family did this. It's not the money it is the principal. AND NO ITALIAN FAMILIES DO NOT DO THIS PERIOD!
ill believe him. Madonna was a skank when she was younger. I probably wouldnt even be surprised if he says that she was having sexual affairs with animals
I think it's sad how people say anything negative about Madonna on this post while it's clearly her bother that's fucked up. She gave him millions of dollars, dozens of job opportunities and always took care of him, yet she's the bad one here?
I guess even if she found the cure for cancer you would still think she did it for money and doesn't really give a shit. I've heard stories of her brother and they are exactly what i'm reading in your article/post, perez. it's sad, really, what drugs can do.
*
WHAT A DICK!!! BUT, ANY MADONNA FAN KNOWS THIS DUDE,AND THAT HE'S A CRACKHEAD…..NO ONE WILL BUY HIS CRACK BOOK.
*
What a fuckin low life!!!!!!
KARMA………she deserves it. She has truly abused everyone she has ever worked with. She has also been cruel to her own father since she was a teen. She puts people thru hell and has no qualms about it. She is completely self centered and always has been. This is already documented in biographies written about her. This book won't make a bit of difference in her life. Don't waste your time giving her a pity party. She doesn't need or deserve it.
Who the fuck does Perez Hilton think he is, calling Christoper Ciccone "beyond low"? Talk about the pot calling the kettle black! Of course Madonna's lackeys are going to call the book false and slander Chris Ciccone; I'm sure he's got a lot of TRUE juicy stories of Madonna's egomania and utter self-absorption. And they sure don't want anyone to hear that, since Madonna has been doing her damndest to reinvent herself as a "humanitarian" and a savior to Africans. Why she even bought one of their babies to raise as her own! What a saint! FUCK Perez, he is one big fat asshole loser. If the sibling writing the tell-all was the brother or sister of TOM CRUISE, why Perez Hilton would be giggling his head off and telling everybody to runrunRUN right out and buy it! Madonna must pay for Perez's rent boys, because he can't seem to stop smooching her memaw ass.
Fuck you Perez, We've been trying to know trash on Madonna and her brother is just about open the mother load of all the sewers.
what goes around comes around… You cant go through life stealing children and being a whore without something coming to bite you in the ass. "fabricating lies" - please!! He'll probably write nothing but the truth - thats what the old tart is worried about.
That picture of Madonna looks just like Mary Kate Olsen!
That picture of Madge looks just like Mary Kate Olsen!
" somenoe" typo
He is NOT looking good, very bloated and just not good in general. Look at the look on his face. He even looks desperate.
Although I am sure he could tell an interesting story or two……
Christopher Ciccone is a loser coke head.
Not buying that book !
well, anyone with an inside scoop knows this:
GUY RITCHIE HATES GAY PEOPLE!
HE PRETTY MUCH MADE MADONNA DUMP HER OWN BROTHER
THEY USED TO BE VERY CLOSE
SO, YES HE HAS BEEN A MESS, BUT HIS HEART WAS BROKEN B/C HIS SISTER BETRAYED HIM
SO GET OFF HIS FUCKING BACK!
Re: Pity! –
Oh shut the fuck up, 'Pity'. If you don't want to pay $300 to see her in concert, don't. But she's worth every penny. It doesn't make her a greedy
cunt. Obviously people don't mind paying it, as her concerts are selling out left and right. It's common knowledge that artists don't make money on music sales anymore (thanks to the internet, hackers, and illegal downloaders like yourself) so they have to make their money somewhere. She's not greedy, she's SMART. Stay off the site if you don't like hearing about Madonna. Oh by the way YOU are the CUNT.
Good Job! Good one!
I can't wait to get my hands on a copy. I've been saying Madonkey is a fake from day one and I just know her brother will tell the truth about what an evil cunt she is. That fraud Liz Rosenwhore has been spreading such shit about her for years and we all know if's fabrication. Hope she gets her just desserts! What a fat cunt! Good job Chris. I 'll buy 10 copies and send them to the rest of her family!
It's a little hard to image Madonna as the bruised, whimpering victim in this — or any — story. She has a pretty well-documented history of being stingy in her personal life, so I don't see her as a Mother Teresa figure by "letting" him work for her. He was a major force behind Blonde Ambition tour that pushed her into mega-stardom — give him his proper credit. Maybe he's the true talent in the family?
How much of Madonna's publicist's/"source" Kool-Aid did Perez drink? Jeez….
OH PLEASE! This is Madonna we're talkin about…what could be worse than the things we already knew about her?! She's FAR from a saint. You know her history Perez…this book her bro is making would be pointless cause…we already know!
HEY PEREZ- It's sounds like you're relying upon M's Miami Lesbian Network and Out of Work PR firm (aka ingrid C) for ONE SIDE of the Story. I guess you DO owe Madonna for past favours and she has you in her back pocket. You should be defending your "gay" brother Chris. Layoff the Cheetos also, and layoff the Whip Cream at the Coffee Bean.
It's unfortunate that he is not ready to seek treatment yet. Madonna has done the right things by setting her boundaries (cutting him off) until he gets treatment for his addiction. Some people aren't ready until they hit their own bottom, seems like Christopher has not yet. Maybe he will see soon that he deserves rehab for himself. www.journeyrecoverycenters.com
please Perez……
this is bullshit… Christopher Ciccone is going to tell the truth… and people will believe him… Madonna is a bitch and everybody knows that…
I hope Mariah Carey's sister (the prostitute) will plan a book about her sister!
thats what she and mariah say, that they have addictions. well if thats the case madge get him help and throw him a bone. would it kill you? oh yea i forgot, you do only what you want when you want even when it comes to your blood. dunno, i have family i have nothing to do with…hard to say. lets just wait for the book to come out. i have am almost done with my current book Peony Love.
MADONNA OFFERED CHRIS ALL SHE COULD AND SHES THE BAD ONE??
Don't you people READ before you comment here? How can you people say things like "what goes around comes around?" As if you hypocrites were all saints. If we knew ALL about your private life I'm sure half of you normally should have been in psychiatry - the way you people judge someone you don't even know other than the gossip in newspapers is SAD. Get a life. Get some morals. Get a fucking BRAIN.
Also, don't you all realize that if you support this you basically support his addiction to drugs?? He only sinks this low and grabs money to talk about his own BLOOD to buy drugs! It has always been this way. He got millions of opportunities of Madonna and he still won't take anything and be lazy and take drugs instead. How can anyone in the right mind be okay with that? Anyone who does and isn't being a hypocrite on the INTERNET is SICK.
Ha Ha Ha I love this. I hope he puts lots of shit in it because Madonna is a old ugly dog trying to look like a YOUNG Olsen twin. Madonna has no heart and this whole Malawi thing is a load of shit and i think she only adopted the kid for publicity cos she doe not have to look after him as she would have nannies. Madonna is and always will be a money hungry skank. Even the jews are ashamed that she calls herself one lol. I hope this book rips her to shreads and destroys her stupid fans image. Madonna = WHORE for attention and MONEY! She is so old she should be in a nursing home by now.
"Well, we won't believe him! To betray your own family member like this? Beyond low!"
LOL - that's some real quality blogging….
Was this written from summer camp or a slumber party?
we won't believe him!!!
PERRO TRAICIONERO… lacra hipocrita adicto patetico
so, what can he say?
Madonna is a legend in all aspects, Nothing can destroy her.
Ademas los comentarios se toman de quien viene, y él no es más que un patetico drogadicto, que solo quiere fama y dinero. Es un perro traicionero.
I'm no fan of Madonna Ciccone, but I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt in this circumstance.
Addition is a really horrible thing- and sometimes enough is enough. You have to walk away. "Tough Love" is what they call it.
Hopefully if Chris is an addict, as the M camp claims- he will get help!!!
Blessings to the Ciccone family in this difficult time.
Liz Rosenberg is an OLD PR Hack who gets paid very handsomely to lie and spin for Madonna.
Clearly Chris Ciccone is the victim of a smear campaign by Madge and her PR Hack Mz. Rosenberg. Don't believe this damage control PR bullshit.
There is no evidence that Chis Ciccone as substance abuse problems- only rumours and innuendo from the Madonna Ciccone camp.
Let's let Chris tell his side of the story in the book- and refrain from casting judgment on him until after one has read his book.
Note to Perez: STOP allowing yourself to be spun out by Liz Rosenhag
Very low…all true Madonna fans should make a pact to not buy the book.
oh spare me. he's gotta make a living and f it means dishing out all the details of "madge" then fuck it. besides what is he going to say that we don't arleady know? She's slept with just about all of hollywood, was into the drugs..yada yada…the same ol' hollywood story. let him write it!
um no, people will beleive him mainly because of the disgusting slut shit she did just 10 years ago. The old hag needs to stop trying to blame him for her own fucked up and nasty past. Just because she moved to England and Married and gay english director doesn't make her a lady. She's still a slut.
Madonna Ciccone, through her PR Flack Liz RosenDouche- alleges lots of nasty things. 1.) that Chris is a drug addict 2.) Thrown out of an apt. in Miami 3.) Broke, etc.
Not smart- Ciccone and RosenHag. Chris is not only going to sue M- but also reveal even more shit about her in the book.
From what has been written about Chris by Rupert Everett and from his public quotes and appearances on Top Chef, it seems pretty obvious that his problem isn't that he's a liar, but that he's brutally, painfully honest and doesn't mince words. Which, should make for a highly entertaining read!
The popcorn is on the stove.
Tell the truth. Which is that Madonna is…a whore?
As the old saying goes, One Really Does Get the Face they Deserve after 50.
Truer words have never been spoken about Madge and Christopher Cicconne.
Wonder what Liz Rosenberg looks like?
Madonna has hurt and fucked over a lot of people, so she's got a little Karma coming back her way. Good for him!
I met him in Ptown about 3 years ago and was invited to his photography opening of famous naked celebs, but it didn't show their faces. All he did was chain smoke like a fiend. He was a nervous wreck sweatin and shakin. He was a mess
Does she think everyone is crazy? She is trying to make him look bad to cover her A double S. Her brother may have all of those problems but I still think the book will probably be the truth.
Really, the only thing that would surprise me about Madonna is that she plays bridge & knits nightly…She has master spinners anyway that will make this positive even if it is a boil on her butt.
PERHAPS YOU NEED A NEW WRITER - THIS MAKES NO SENSE:
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.
Shame on him. Get help Dude, being HIV is serious and he needs to start to take better care of himself. Drugs a booze soooo anyoneville
saw him messed up at a party.
he pays for call boys and gets all nasty.
looks so sad.
his face says it all: dwugs suk.
saw him in a drug den.
sooper nasty mess.
poor madonna havin dat 4 a bro.
yikes.
he smells funny!!
what a sly bitch mandonga is!! she is trying to totally dis credit him!! maybe he isn't a drug addict, how the fuck would she know now!!?? she has cut him off! one thing is for sure madonna is a fucking nightmare to deal with, ever ask yourselves why she isn't close to any memebers of he family, she has many bros and siss but she thinks she is better than them all! i can't wait for this book! to hear another side of the story other than the madonna PR machine from that deluded stupid manipulative liz rosenwhore! madona isa fucking USER!! egomaniac atention whore!! i'm happy her brother is taking her on!!! go CHRIS!!!!
Nothing stings like the truth…
Lets have the facts.
Mario the hater = pear shaped loser…
It seems liz rosentwat has been getting paid a ton over the years to lie for Madonna.
Could you imagine what her karma will be? Could you imagine lying for your living? What part of that is entertaining? Really sad and depressing.
Team Chris here! Yes tell it baby. So happy there are 350,000 copies ready to hit the stores next month. This will be a beautiful summer read. Can't wait! Madonna has been fooling the people for years now it's here turn to get what's coming. Hope it hits the shelves on her 50th birthday. WHAT A GREAT WAY TO CELEBRATE THE OLD WHORE'S BIRTHDAY!!!!
Seriously when was the last time Madonna put out a good song. The older she gets the worse her voice sounds and her song-writing ability? is getting so bad. She's a complete fake. The public questions no other star's talent the way they do Madonna's. This is for good reason.
its finally time someone took madonna on!!! we need to hear another side to the story not just her side!! can't wait to read this, people need to know the truth about this attention seeking media whore that has built a career on sex and pandering to the shallow gay market. she has zero singing talent!! its all about image with this shallow bitch!!!
I'll believe it! Madonna is an ass!
Re: saman – hey crazy! take your meds!!
Re: GiveI – Give it 2 Me hasn't even been released yet as a single, that's why it's not on the charts. Hard Candy is a great CD!
Re: Who c – Totally agreed. What else is there to say?
Addiction is terrible and good for her for cutting him off. Giving him money just enables his addiction and certainly won't help him get better.
Sorry, Madonna, I think it's a little late to be taking the moral high ground on sharing private family matters with the public.
Doesn't anyone remember Madonna writhing around on her mother's grave while Christopher looked on in embarrassment from behind a tree in "Truth or Dare"?
The irony of Madonna's camp portraying her as "betrayed" is so thick I can smell it. Madonna has been inviting the general public into her family members' private lives, presumably without their consent, from the beginning - and louder and more graphically than any other celebrity had ever done at the time. It's part of what made her famous - she was the first "reality star." If I were one of her siblings, I would be horrified if my own sister was mass-marketing such highly personal and private subject matter.
Truth is where you find it.
Christopher Cicconne, down on his luck, asked Madge for some money. Madge, being the tight-wad uber kabbalah Jew she is- is not one to part with a penny.
But not wanting to totally shit on her brother- Madge proposed the following plan. Christopher writes an "unauthorized" tell all book on Madonna. Madonna secretly has complete editorial control of the book- and is actually on for a cut of the royalties.
It's a win-win. Christopher gets cash, Madonna gets cash- and Madonna gets a monsoon of publicity- something she so desperately craves. Did y'all really think this shitstorm happening on the eve of her Madgesty's poorly selling- overpriced tour was just a coincidence??
Re: haho – Defamation of character? BWAH HA HA BWA HA HA BWA HA HA HA HA HA HA. As if there was an character to defame.
Re: Twat – True! Liz RosenFraud is a pathetic old douche. A professional public Liar.
Bad Karma, really bad karma. Don't believe a word that old crone has to say.
Re: STUNT – Yup- It makes perfect sense that this is just another Madonna Ciccone publicity stunt- designed to increase ticket sales of her failing tour.
But in a way we hope it isn't. She has shit on so many people- been so incredibly sacreligious- and just so horrible to her own family- exploiting their personal pain at every opportunity- so therefore- it would be nice to see a Ciccone family member SHIT ALL OVER HER!
