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!




It's war in the Ciccone family!
Half siblings Mario and Jennifer (by the family housecleaner) have come out staunchly in favor of Christopher!!!!
Madonna's been nothing but an evil douche to them and they can't wait to see the book~
Finally something Madonna Louise Veronica Ciccone cannot control. The simple, brilliant, harsh ,bitter truth of her life.
Laid bare for all to tread by one of the people in this life who knew her best- and has access to the people who know her now.
Someone capable of revealing her strange psychosis, her megalomania, her
Egoism- her Materialism- Her duplicity- Her willingness to fuck over anyone in her way- Her cold heart.
Read it an weep, Madge. (that is if you are even capable of shedding any tears- you beast!)
Re: WAR!! – Agreed, WAR!!! I think it's time for the family members to have a chance to tell their side of the story. It's only fair. It sounds like none of them like her. Something tells me it's going to be a juicy book.
I heard she outed him to the media without his permission in the 90s? I guess he's coming back around to "out" her. Yep, karma is a biatch.
boicot the book? the guy`s an asshole to do this!
Re: ocoel – It's kinda cute seeing Liz Rosenberg trying to post fake comments on here. Honey, people don't say "drug den" anymore. Not since the 70s, really.
I've met Christopher and he's a smart, funny, witty and all-around big-hearted guy. Just saw that the book is available for pre-order on Amaz*n and ordered a copy!
Re: stevi – You are right, Stevi. I was completely horrified by that Scene, in Truth or Dare- when Madonna was writhing around on her mothers' grave- whist poor Christopher looked on aghast.
This woman actually exploited her mother's grave for attention and shock value. She holds absolutely nothing sacred.
Christoper- Tell it Like it is, Lad. Tell it all. Don't hold back. Warts and All. Let's finally see who that girl is!!!! xoxo Sr. Janice
Re: Vinny – Hey Vinny- I just pre-orderd Christopher's book on Amazon as well!!!! Can't wait- it's going to be quite a sensation. International best seller- for sure.
Watch out Madge- Chris' poison pen is going to slash you up, girl!!!
Oh. Wow. This could be the "Mommy Dearest" of our time.
Yes, Perez, this IS a sad, sad story of betrayal. The betrayal being that it appears Madonna has put her Miami-based, very close friend, Ingrid, up to feeding PerezHilton.com with insinuations that her own younger brother is nothing more than a lying junkie looking for a fix. We all remember you publicly thanking Ingrid for the free Madonna tix on the last tour, Dude. With this post, maybe you'll get backstage this time. Hope everyone is happy.
Very, very sad indeed. The things the rich and famous will do to maintain their already excessive fame and money. Cold, cold, cold.
I feel for Christopher…
Re: WAR!! – Don't forget her Homosexuality, Her Lust for Power and Fame, her Betrayal of Sandra Bernhardt, Her Jealousy of Joan Collins, Her Penchant for Black Dick, Her Multiple Abortions, the Secret Insecurity she feels about knowing deep down that she is a FRAUD- Perpetuating the longest-running and must lucrative scam in the history of the entertainment business.
Yes- Christopher's book will make an interesting read- indeed!!!!
Re: Great – You are clearly a very angry person. You really should focus on what you sound like as a person. Most likely "VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH YOU OWN LIFE"
i've been a huge madonna fan for almost my whole life and have every single one of her albums, but i'm def. buying this book. i'm just curious to see what chris has to say…but all in all, if i still like madonna's music in the future, i'll still buy her stuff. and also, madonna has made some negative comments about her family members like her brother martin in truth or dare, she made jokes about martin's alcohol problem. i guess, it's true what some people say about madonna who have met her in person, she has a HUGE ego!! yes, she's successful, but pop that big head already!! i just think madonna doesn't want us to know some very personal and maybe true things about her. but i'm pre-ordering the book and wish christopher much success!!
war, the half siblings are supporting christopher??? OUCH!!! so i guess madonna has no contact with her family, i mean, being busy and all it may not be on a personal level…but i didn't know about guy ritchie not liking gay people. i guess he forgot madonna's sexcapades in the early 90s!! justify my love didn't have gay themes?
If you love Madonna dont buy the book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
