Summer
of Madonna
Thursday
July 19, 2001
The
pop diva's common sense about dollars is one of
the secrets revealed in J. Randy Taraborelli’s
new book "Madonna: an intimate biography."
He tells “Extra” “She figures these
people have enough money they can afford their
own tickets. People have told me that she doesn’t
allow friends to make long distance phone calls
from her home. She does her own laundry when she's
in hotels because she thinks prices they charge
are outrageous and she's one of the richest entertainers
in the world worth hundreds of millions. Deep
down inside there's still that fear and Madonna
has that she could turn around tomorrow and be
broke."

Madonna
does have more mouths to feed ...with new husband guy
Ritchie and their son Rocco.
Gwyneth Paltrow was one of the few Hollywood stars invited
to the christening and super secret Ritchie-Madonna wedding.
Taraborelli credits Madonna with loosening Gwyneth up
and describes a 2000 New Years Eve party. He says, “She
and Madonna got up on a table and started doing a very
sexy dance together that culminated in a sharing a very
public kiss. Madonna reached over and kissed this girl
like there was no tomorrow."
But Taraborelli says a new baby and husband have changed
Madonna. Despite a public spat with Guy this week in London,
the author says Madonna has mellowed.
Taraborelli adds, “For her to come to grips with
the fact that it doesn’t matter how many Prada shoes
you have you have to make room for toys was a real revelation
and she has done a great job of it." |
