Madonna's Brother Doubts Truth In Alex Rodriguez Affair
  • Christopher Ciccone appeared on Good Morning America and spoke about his relationship with his sister, Madonna. When he was asked if he recognized the woman that Madonna had become, he responded with a barb about Madonna's facelift.

    ....He also made reference to Madge's lack of generosity. He said that Madonna does very little to help care for their 93 year old grandmother only giving her $500.00 a month to help make ends meet.
(This thread might be merged later with the Ciccione family thread, or the "Not a Material Girl, eh?" thread.)

"Lack of generosity"? It's an euphemism in this case !

It's even sadder when you recall she gives millions (literally) to the Raising Rabbi Berg charity. He's such a good cause.

#1 mandona hater

According to this article, manny, who spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on her birthday party this month, contributed 13 bucks toward burying little adopted David's African grandmother.

David's grandmother died of pneumonia because the family couldn't afford the medicine to cure it. The cost of her funeral was about $50, because that's what a wood coffin sells for. They were able to get $13 from the Raising Malawi people toward the cost of the coffin- not even from manny, but from the Raising Malawi group.

Ah, but life is so much cheaper in some parts of the world....isn't it?

She couldn't manage to donate anything?

And all her charity coughed up was $13, $14? :rolleyes2:

For someone who tries to hoodwink the world into thinking she's a humanitarian, she's not doing so well.

Here's the article:

Madge's Gran Gesture
  • 17th August 2008
    By BARRY KEEVINS in Malawi

    POP billionaire Madonna chipped in just £6.50 for the funeral of her adopted son’s granny.

    David Banda’s 52-year-old grandmother Asineti Mwale looked after him when his own mother died.

    She was buried last week after the family could not afford to buy medicine to treat her pneumonia.

    But there were gasps of amazement at her funeral on Tuesday when donors’ names and the amounts they had given to cover burial expenses were read out.

    The coffin she was buried in cost just 7,000 Malawi Kwacha – about £25. But the Raising Malawi Trust, supported by Madonna, put in only 2,000 Malawi Kwacha – about £6.50.

    The coffin was carried on an ox cart pulled by young men from the village.

    Village headman Henderson Geza was too saddened to speak. But his nephew thanked all those who made contributions.

    He said: “As a family we are happy that representatives of Madonna are here. They have made a contribution of 2,000 Malawi Kwacha.”

    The congregation, which had maintained a respectful silence, murmured their disapproval.

    But David’s father Yohane, who said it was the first money he has had from Madonna, refused to criticise the pop star, who turned 50 yesterday.

    He said: “Recipients of gifts cannot choose what they should be given, so I am thankful for the gift.”

    Madonna found baby David at the Home of Hope orphanage at Mchinji in October 2005.

    Administration director Lucy Chipeta told the mourners: “I know some of you will be wondering why Madonna could only give 2,000 Malawi Kwacha.

    “This money has been contributed by Raising Malawi Trust who are supported by Madonna.

    “We have communicated to Madonna about the death of our gogo (mama) and we don’t know what she is going to do about it. I just thought I should make that clarification.”

Someone should ask Angelina Jolie, Bono and the other Celebs involved with UN Charities to request a proper audit of RAISING MALAWI and its books....

I'm sure they will find a LOT of shoddy bookeeping and questionable entries...

Why didn't Madoooooona look after the ailing grandmother of her adopted son? How did she dare let her die like that, takes few bucks to treat Pneumonia and few weeks of treatment of antibiotics only.
What a b***h, like as if it was open heart or by-pass surgery with so much of expence.
Just proves she doesn't care for the son at all, when she doesn't even keep informed of his own grandmother's requirements.
If madoona's own grandmother went ailing the first thing she would do is run to save her I bet.
What a partiality, she's a miser in her own material world made for herself only.

When she's ailing too one day nobody will be around for her too!

She charges her friend to use her gym. :rolleyes2:

Stella McCartney does a runner on Madonna over gym fees
  • 11th October 2008

    With a £250million fortune in the bank, you’d have thought Madonna could afford to be a little generous.

    But it seems the singer, who is known to be careful with money, believes even her closest chums should pay their way.

    Designer Stella McCartney used to work out in the gym at Madonna’s house in Mayfair but has now decided to have a gym of her own built after Madonna started charging for the use of her facilities.

    A source said: ‘Madonna demands a token amount for cleaning and upkeep but the price has been creeping up.

    'Stella and Gwyneth Paltrow, who also uses the gym, found they were giving her hundreds of pounds. Stella offered to pay in clothes but Madonna wants cash only.

    ‘Stella has decided she is better off having equipment installed at her new Notting Hill house while Gwyneth is extending the Pilates studio her husband Chris Martin had installed at their Belsize Park home.'

And I was afraid I wouldn't get to use this thread ever again, I should've known!

Check Please? Tip, Maybe - ABC news
  • Blame it on the recession, or just being downright cheap, but some Hollywood stars are less than generous when it comes to leaving a good tip.

    Although Madonna is worth more than $300 million as one of the world's top performers, the material girl is not so materialistic when it comes to tipping.
    Madonna is reportedly a notoriously bad tipper.

    According to the British Mirror, the pop singer and then-husband Guy Ritchie once left an $18 tip on a $400 dollar bill.

    A Web site called "Bitter Waitress" claims that Madonna left only a small tip after eating with her friend, Ingrid Casares, at a New York City restaurant
    . Talk about being frugal.

Madonna guitarist ‘left to die'
  • March 8, 2009

    Michael Jackson and Madonna have been criticised for failing to help a former guitarist who died after he could not afford medical bills.

    Both superstars had toured with David Williams – who had also performed with Chaka Khan, Lionel Richie and Jessica Simpson – over three decades.

    But he was left to die alone on Friday after blood pressure complications.

    Medics at the hospital in Hampton, Virginia, allegedly advised his family to switch off life-support as the 58-year-old had no medical insurance.

    A family friend lashed out at the stars for failing to support the musician.

    'David, who supported them on stage all those years, has nothing,' she said.

    'His ex-wife, Deborah, just wanted him to have some integrity. He was Vietnam veteran and still had no benefits.'

Madonna and Michael Jackson Guitarist Dies in Poverty

Madonna, Jacko's guitarist dies 'disrespected' death - Smash Hits.com
  • New York, March 8 (ANI): The guitarist for Madonna and Michael Jackson passed away, leaving his family fuming over the music community's ignorance and the hospital's abandoned concern during his final days.

    David Williams was rushed to the Sentara Hospital in Hampton, after suffering complications from high blood pressure.

    .... And according to a family friend, the hospital kept insisting on pulling the plug while David struggled for his life since he lacked health insurance.

    ....A music industry insider added: What about NARAS [National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences]? What about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? They collect huge amounts of money every year to help musicians in David's situation - and they throw themselves parties instead. It's disgusting. (ANI)

Weeeeellll, to be fair to Madonna....

If she were to walk into a Baptist church, she'd probably burst into flames. (You remember "Damien's" reaction when his folks tried to take him to church in The Omen, right? :laugh: )

Secondly: you really do not want Madonna speaking at your loved one's funeral, because she will make it all about her, her, her.

Guitarist for Michael Jackson, Madonna remembered at funeral in Hampton
  • By Sam McDonald
    March 13, 2009

    HAMPTON — The local funeral for guitar great David Williams didn't feature any of the musical giants he backed over 40 years in show business.

    Michael Jackson, Madonna and Mariah Carey didn't eulogize Williams at Sixth Mount Zion Baptist Temple in Hampton on Thursday morning. Aretha Franklin didn't sing. Neither did Bryan Ferry or Dionne Warwick.

    In fact, there were few celebrities among the 600 or so people who attended the service.

    They chose to keep a low profile.

    But there was no shortage of love expressed for the guitar player, a Newport News native who died last week at age 58.

    For a period in the 1980s, Williams was one the most in-demand session musicians on the planet. At his hometown funeral, though, he was remembered mostly as a friend, a neighbor, a member of the family.

    ...Among musicians — here in Virginia and across the globe — Williams' guitar prowess is legendary.

    "He was the funk master — the lick man," said David "Pic" Conley, a member of the hit-making group Surface. "That's why everybody called him." Conley, who lives in New Jersey, traveled to Hampton to attend the funeral.

    Outside the sanctuary on Thursday, the guitarist's daughter Davida Williams stood on the steps minutes after the casket was loaded into the hearse.

    An actress who plays on television's "As The World Turns," she paused for a moment to say a few words about her father.

    "He was a great man," she said. "He always made people laugh. We're going to miss him."

Why Madonna's still a material girl
  • Apr 5 09
    by Robert Sandall

    ....Generosity to relatives is not her thing. This was one of the prevailing themes of Life with My Sister Madonna, an unauthorised memoir published last year by her younger brother, Christopher Ciccone.

    When he came to write it, Madonna and he were scarcely speaking. Originally one of her backing dancers, Christopher went on to become her interior designer and latterly the art director of her live shows.

    He got the heave-ho in 2003 while overseeing the refurbishment of her $12m home on Sunset Boulevard.

    She was furious that he had, as she saw it, overcharged her for a light fixture; in his view, he had merely applied the standard mark-up that designers add to materials they source and supply.

    Events surrounding her divorce suggested that, five years later, Madonna was taking a similarly tough line with her ex.

    ....He [Professor Colin Barrow of the Cranfield School of Management] could have also cited her ruthless refusal to allow personal loyalties to interfere with business, and her conversion of herself into Brand Madonna.

    Sir Tim Rice, co-creator of the musical Evita, which spawned her most successful film role as Eva Peron, found these qualities less admirable: “Sometimes it was as if you were dealing with General Motors.”


    ....Though Madge is said to be a stingy employer, her shows never scrimp on the wow factor — which is why she can justify charging as much as $300 a ticket.
